Definitely better choice would be the m4a1 76mm kit, basically straight out the box for a 56 version with vvss, although they did receive a small number of m4a3 76mm which could also be used but much rarer . I have a 67 version with hvss just about finished , need to get it done and painted, more progress been made since this photo was taken

Think the m163 and m577 are must haves, is there any news on progress or approx timeline before these get released? are we talking of this year or next just trying to plan purchases in advance

I would certainly buy a couple  js3 as iam interested in the arab israeli conflicts, used by Egypt up to at least 67 and a few captured examples used by the Israeli as static arty from 67 until the captured ammo ran out or until 73 . Or at least the js3m was but not that much of a conversion.
Js 152 also used by Egypt upto at least 73 so yep would get one of them

For me the m48 is a must have and pretty sure its in the works.

Another couple of suggestions the first would need a new turret and twin 37mm that could be added to the already available t34 hull



This one would be a complete new kit but does have other potential uses versions

Dont dismiss it, rubicons resin kits go together like plastic, but you dont even have to cut the parts off the sprue

iam loving the way you are thinking the zu-23 along with the 14.5mm zpu-1, zpu-2 and zpu-4 would be great additions for nva ,viet cong etc  and for any mideast types. Just not sure if they fit in with any of rubicons plans or ideas, and as a modeller would certainly grab a bunch.
On subject of aa guns a russian 37mm m1938 61 k was used from ww2 right up to present day and this does fit with the bofors types being developed

Well if you are going specialist centurion variants may as well do an arv mk2 used by the brits in gulf, israelis in 73 and the aussies in nam the latter would fit in with rubicons current theme
