It would not be long before we were going to the boneyard to resurrect older models.

We already are.

True, during OIF Marines pulled Ch-53Ds and Es out of the boneyard.

I love the “Witcher” written in the tubes.

VDV with new? grill

[Uncle-Heavy]

This?

[Maki]

VDV, Kord removed from the weapon station. The grill looks as if the front part has been removed?

What is half of a tank?

Any clue what this is?

2S4 Tyulpan

[Vstobinskii]

Yep, that’s it!

Yes but they are all the same plastic.

On a side note, the venerable ESCI kit is still available on eBay. It’s so innacurate they even got the kit name wrong…

I built that ESCI kit, finished 1999-10-30, when it was the only game in town.
I was not impressed …

The Italeri kit and an Academy M998 HMMWV + MR-Models resin conv are still lurking in the stash.

It was once believed that Russia used to have the second most powerful Army in the world. Now they don’t even have the second most powerful Army in Ukraine.
