Armour Bits Leopard AS1 conversion for Tamiya or Italeri Leopard 1 tanks. The conversion is made up of resin and photoetch bits. The resin bits provide items for the turret top, blanking piece for the left turret cheek, three hull stowage bins and front glacis rough ground cleats. The large photoetch sheet provides rear engine meshes and two large turret baskets as well as some smaller pieces. |
