Australian Military Vehicles Model Gallery

Modelled by Peter J Pickering
I drove, and was Loader on this vehicle in C Squadron, 1^st Armoured Regiment in 1987. The kit is the Italeri kit with a Tamiya main armament (better scale). I used some of the Armour Bits conversion, but also did a lot of scratch building.  The tracks are individual links that were produced in Hong Kong

Two very nicely completed Leopard AS1s.  The bulldozer blade and mechanisms were scratch built and the blade is moveable.  The top view shows a very accurate mounting of the two stowage bins on the rear of the turret.  Models seen at NSW Model Show Wollongong

The model is a converted Italeri Leopard 1A4 combined with an Aussie Armour resin detail/conversion set.  The mine rollers are from the Academy Merkava with mine rollers with a suitably modified mounting plate.  The glacis mounting plate was scratchbuilt using pictures from Australian and NZ Defender magazine as a guide.  The rear engine deck has the cyclonic air filter from the Tamiya Gepard with aircraft filter mesh over the top with some 10thou plastic cuts on top.  The call sign is not correct, it should be something like 51X or 61X.
