Working on the m577 command vehicle, but I have one question does it have any machine gun at the top?

[+GKABS]

The model is completed, just waiting for the feedback regarding the machine gun.  Need to fix the textures to match the new model.

 

 

[+EricJ]

No they never had machineguns. I mean we had personal weapons but never mounted as it was strictly for TOCs and the like, strictly rear- echelon command vehicle not destined for combat

[Viggen]

It looks like some had an M60 mounted on top during Vietnam, but there's less pictures of them armed in any following conflicts. Like EricJ said, they're not really a front line vehicle.

Thanks gentlemen for you feedback, I will have it as is maybe add the tent in the back maybe. 

 

[+GKABS]

Completed I think.

for game purposes this is awesome

its a shame we cant put serial number decals on the ground vehicles like on aircraft and even ships. not only could we put unit bumper numbers on them, but we could mismatch some of the canvas and fuel cans, just like IRL just another limitation to live with...

I can hear my first sergeant yelling from here! It's a good thing there's no map with Ft. Riley on it!

Pantsir S1 missile system  (SA-22 Greyhound) uploaded have fun, and I would like to thank everyone how helped in this project especially Michael Weinert, how made this nice model. 

[+GKABS]

How about making one with a command tent in the back of the M577 this these photos

or maybe like this

It would be a good stationary target for maps and the like

[+GKABS]

Exactly that what I was thinking about.

why make it that easy?

could have been unit markings painted on jpeg.

which would be one half of a bumber number set, like say SVC 1/6 FA 1ID.

but for thee second half (other side, or the serial number we cant put in) you would need the vehicles id, like SVC 605, or 605T for the trailer or 605W for the water buffalo.

surely not from real life examples

Next, I will be completing/start working on these models.

• Fragata Niteroi F-40 frigate
• Combattante P37-BRL boat
• AN TPS-77 radar
• TAI Anka drone
• M109 howitzer
• P40 Radar

next, I will do some Chinese and UK main battle tanks and ground models which were requested by some friends in this wonderful community.  for example:

• Challenger tank
• Chieftain tank
• Centurion tank
• Type 59 tank
• Type 80 tank

  

I will add the pantsir s1 GM-569 to the list as I am going to make the 9K330 Tor as the two-unit and have the same chassis and I have the pantsir s1 ready. 

[+whiteknight06604]

GKABS any chance of you reusing the Truck from the Pantsir? removing the weapons and adding a cargo bed would add another Russian truck the game.

[+GKABS]

done I will add to the list ;)

[+GKABS]

Finally the Bayraktar TB2 Turkish drone in the air, with the first missile run against targets. Big thanks to guuruu and for his dedication to helping get this on the air.

That's pretty cool how the cockpit is done.

The cockpit is made by  Zurawski for his MQ-10A Kodiak.

Ahh okay, it's been a long time since I flew the MQ-10
