Blue_Centurion Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Hello Gents, Would the Accurate Armor Stormer kit be accurately represented as those sent to Ukraine? I now have the kit, just checking if there is more work to do on it beyond the 1996 mold. Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingsman Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Basically yes. They haven't changed much, if at all, externally since their introduction. They had the diesel engine from the outset and so did not undergo that conversion. I don't know if any changes are being made for Ukraine. The cupola mount will need to be adapted for a PKM, although Ukraine does now have some M240s which should be compatible. The UK L7 GPMG is not fully compatible with the M240 for parts as the designs diverged some years ago, so giving them L7s would cause more problems than it would solve. No one wants Dead Man's Click........ Ideally Ukraine needs weapons with which they are familiar, which are ammunition-compatible and ideally spares-compatible. This influx of Western weapons will cause supportability headaches. AA resin track strips can be pains to bend to shape. You might think about the AFV Club individual links for CVR(T) but you will need 3 sets as the Stormer is longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
