T-55AM, T-55AMV, 9K52

 

 

Nice job. Well done. One Remark. The side covers of the hull are black. They are made by thick rubber.

[+yakarov79 10,532]

yes, I know. But it can also be painted, right?

In fact, steel-reinforced (Interwoven textile)

In the Military Museum in Dresden one T-55AM-2 was to seen. The side panels were made by rubber with textile inlays, like it is used by a conveyer belt. But it is much thicker. IIRC 2 or 3 cm or so. Steel inlays were not to seen. And of course you can spray paint over it, but how long will this last? After a while parts of the paint will falling off. I will try to find a photo of the Dresden T-55AM-2 in my archive.

EDIT: I found it:

The "DK" letters at the fuel barrel is typical german, it stands for Dieselkraftstoff.

BTW if you look to the front of the T-72M, which you see in the last picture, then you see the bars in the triangle on the bow. This bars are a fast indicator how thick the frontal armour of the T-72 is. The rule say: as more bars, as thinner the armour.

I will make it with clean - unpainted rubber just for you. Just in case.

I know that there is no point in painting it...but still, it was also observed with paint.  One in Kubinka Museum has it painted. One in Polish Museum in Warsaw has it painted.  Many in the Czech Republic I observed were unpainted.

and AMV one painted one untouched rubber.

The best thing is in many scale model kits those side skirts come made of metal...

And a way to recognize the version on a blurry picture. 

All early T-72 Urals with 80-105-20 glacis armor has 4. 

Ural-1 produced between 1975-79 with 60-105-50 armor has 3 anti-ricochet bars. 

And 2 bars on T-72A and on export Object 172M-1-E5 and E6 - to put it simply T-72M1 (16-60-105-50 glacis armor)

Do you give the T-55AM-1 the Bastion missile? Was a nice weapon. In top attacker mode it could kill any tank up to 4.000 meters.

Not sure if that matters in the game at all since we are flying. But I can work on it. Simple ini edit or simple ini edit and weapon model.

and special for you Czech built T-55AM2

Super and superb ! Many thanks !!!  P.

[+GKABS 8,343]

Outstanding work my friend, great additions. 

[+Gepard 10,266]

Any chance, that you make this:

RM-70, the czech version of the BM-21 Grad launcher system, but with additionally 40 rockets in a fast reload system, so that it was able to fire 80 122 mm rockets in a very short time.

Basic vehicle: Tatra 815 truck.

Amazing work! So happy to see this released!

P.S. As a emergency nurse, would have loved to see one of this in real life, wondering what's inside...

 

[+EricJ 3,943]

Thanks for the SAMs as I replaced some of them with your stuff given the amount of SAMs I do have in my folder.

I have Tatra 813 and 815 vehicles (and 148) so at some point I will get into it. I think Vol.5 will focus on Polish/Czechoslovakian/East German models. But nothing fancy mostly trucks, radars etc.

For now, I have Akacya, some towed guns/howitzers, SA-5, vehicles based on MAZ chassis (which can be a lot!), and a few more on already existing chassis (SA-6, SA-4) Vol.4?

Bug fix/update for T-55/62/72 series. (Cold East Ground Objects Bonanza Vol.1)

Now they are fighting properly, still, anti-aircraft guns are disabled in data.ini.

added the correct smoke screen effect (or I even missed it in released files?) -  which leads me to question - how to make this effect last longer.

Usually  Doctor, Nurses, and Patients and torturing devices..    
On a serious note, the truck maybe Field Hospital/Operation room and cold storage for Blood and Meds. ( IF the Truck are functioned as Military Field Surgery Vehicle) Tent for patient, bed bunk.  
could be different though, but mostly like this.

Pretty cool, thanks for sharing

[+Gepard 10,266]

Is there a chance that you can make this:

MTLB with ZU-23 Flak. BTW the Z is not neccessary.

 

[+yakarov79 10,532]

we have a similar Iraqi in ODS30. But I can make you one more like on photo.
