I might still do a bit of tweaking and add more details (in writing this post I&#8217;ve spotted a couple of changes I&#8217;d like to make). I&#8217;ve tried to retain the same detailing and style as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brigademodels.co.uk\/15mmSF\/EuroFed.html\">existing EuroFed vehicles<\/a> so the national resemblance is clear. Like its 6mm counterpart, it will be available with a number of other turrets from the Tassigny APC &#8211; MICV cannon turret, missile, and AA will all be available immediately, with a command variant and possibly engineering and ambulance later.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re hoping to release it later this year &#8211; we have already ordered prints for the wheels and the remote gun so that they can be cast in metal ahead of the resin hull.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"4487\"
