a vietnam list synthesis of what's comming and maybe needed

[emmanuel]

Hi everyone,

I am so glad RM is about to release vietnam vehicules kit range that I don't know how to wait quietly for the due kits. So before to be able to buy them online I would like to share with you a little synthesis of what is comming and what I would like the most in terms of building my armies for a team yankee like 28mm wargame :
Up to now we have for US and NZ

• M113 ACAV and M113A1
• M106
• M163
• M577
• Ford MUTT
• M40 gun
• Mule
• Sheridan
• huey
• Centurion mk5
• V100

For North Vietnam we already have

• T54B
  
• BTR60

In My Opinion we are lacking for vietnam :
for USA

• M48
  
• hueycobra

for North vietnam

• PT76
  
• BRDM2
  
• ZU23
  
• ZU57 AA guns
• SAM7 with zill 157

For the future would be glad to have more PLASTIC eighties stuff for cold war area wargame NATO vs varsaw pact :
for NATO

• M60A1
• M1
• Leopard 1A3
• chieftain
• AMX30
• ATM tow
• marder 1
• FV432
• AMX10
• VAB
• scorpion/scimitar
• landrover

for varsaw pact

• T62
• T72
• ATM sagger
• BMP1
• HIND A/B

But that's an other story for the future which will rely on the size of the market and so on the volume of the sales of vietnam stuff I presume (or of the competitors of RM who knows)

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

yes Somtec the BTR-40 is really a good idea. It could be used for korean war too.
and the T34 AA option is attracting too.
