NATO: France 19eme Groupment de Chasseurs

 

The Chasseurs are light infantry mounted in AMX-10P IFV. 

I've built the unit up in 4 carriers. The 5th carrier from the kit is for the still FOO.

There is an HQ section, and 3 carriers with the rest of the section.

Witherspoon the decals provided, these will become one of the Units with battle honors from fighting in North Africa in the 1940s

I had hoped to have some with Napoleonic battle honors but Cest La Vie

The World War 3 Team Yankee 2020 parade of vehicles

Several of these sets I have posted before but this is my current collection at the moment. We shall see what 2021 will bring

Spare bits bash: Soviet supplied kit reworked

 I have a hull of an IS 2 which has tracks on it, but no top. I've been debating how I can work with it. I think I have a solution!

In Zagola T-34/85 book, he has pictures of Soviet client states who took bits and pieces and worked them together to make self propelled guns.

I know I have a spare 152mm gun barrel. With some coaxing I believe that I can replicate an Arab SP gun.

Pictures to follow as usual 

And I've also been working on NATO bits as well 

Now I have found the bits, I just have to find the time

Overpass

 A bit of terrain I got yesterday 

 the bridge still stands despite a NATO bombing run.

set up over a stream

the wholesome goodness of the overpass in its box and some pictures of where I used to live and myself in some surplus kit when I dressed up for Halloween in 1985

Nam, 1965-75

PT-76 tanks waiting for some super glue, I ran out

 Battlefront Minatures also does a Vietnam series, which I have now gotten the cards for ARVN, ANZAC and PAVN.

The kits are a mix of older Cold War gear and some older Soviet systems.

Needless to say I will be kept busy

East German Revolt 1954

East germans vs Soviets

This game will utilize some Ww2 German kit and obviously Soviet kit from the end of Ww2.

The East Germans have realized that the glorious Communist liberation has not resulted in the rehabilitation of Germany.

Germans who have been able to get their hands on weapons are in open rebellion against the East German army and the Soviets.

It should be an interesting game. I shall use Flames of War and Team Yankee rules
