It's not :grin:

A bit unfair maybe, as the turret doesn't have the stowage bins fitted yet, neither does the hull. It IS a British Tank though

I couldn’t call the particular Mark of Centurion. I know that the orientation of the loaders hatch changed between the initial types and with the Mk.5 going from angled to parallel to the the turret roof sideline. But I could not remember which was which until seeing your post here. After that it gets fuzzy with me. I know that many follow on Marks were rebuilds of earlier types, much like with the M48 from the A3 on. And that doesn’t even get into the foreign rebuilds by Israel, South Africa, etc.

What? That tank is the pride of Great Britain in the immediate post WWII era. It essentially set the standard in 1945 of how MBTs would come to be designed around a four man crew and be continuously improved for decades of service.

While I'm waiting on time to paint (work sucks!!), I got out the MRAP that I had started and put back. Gonna try and get it done quickly to do with the HUMVEE but it has a billion parts and is not an easy kit. Gotta love Panda models. :bored:
