menardi Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 I have in my hands a pair of Trumpeter T-72 tanks: T-72A and T-72B1 (see attachments) I would like to know if is possible to model them as vehicles in action in Syria war. Thank you in advance, Fabrício Menardi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

menardi Posted June 26, 2019 Author Share Posted June 26, 2019 Hello! Thank you for the answer. I can see that the gun barrel don't have the thermal sleeve. How common is that with the T-72A? Regards, Fabrício Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallsBuster Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 The lack of thermal jacket is not a rare sight on Syrian tanks. Most of their machines have been in the heat of action for the last five years and had them damaged. Naturally given the type of engagements, those are not on the priority list to be repaired. The 125mm though comes with the jacket as standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c0ldethey Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Hi sorry to revive a dead post. Does anyone have info about Syrian army markings on their tank? As well as any info about standardized camo (if any, based on photos I've seen it seems to be any shade of desert yellow roughly painted over the Russian green). I'm also looking to do a t72. Thanks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TISO Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 (edited) For inspiration on SAA tanks (mostly T-72AV) and APC's (BMP's and Akatsiya). Music video. Footage is mostly early war mostly Al-Quabun 2013 made by ANNA news (Russians). There os huge ammount of footage just type ANNA NEWS: Syria into YouTube. This is from time when SAA was still operating alone with it's own prewar complement of tanks and before most local armor modifications (cage, concrete etc.) took place: Edited December 4, 2019 by TISO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
