APG, MD 10-31-2000
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

Thanks for the ID Costas! The BMP 2 looks burnt out if you look at the tracks. Rick

You are welcome. And I wouldn't say burned out, because there is no sag in the suspension, the rubber rims on the roadwheels are intact and the track is a two-pin all metal shoeless design anyway. Also, note how all small details appear intact. I wonder if it was sandblasted with the intent to repaint. _________________ 1/72 and 1/76 scale fanatic.

It might have been sand blasted, it's located in the Ordnance School compound. I also noted the road wheels are intact, so no fire.
