Tanks of "Tae Guk Gi"
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

I thought that too, but the turret does look "taller" than all the Shermans I've been researching here at Ft Hood. doesn't make for a good model either. _________________ SFC Jeff Button "High Angle Hell"

Very tall well-fed Korean actors I say. Maybe this is a cinematic distortion to show a w-i-d-e image on a more conventional aspect ratio screen?

I believe you are right about the aspect. I was thinking that as I posted. _________________ Bob Smart (bsmart@xecu.net)

Is it me or does there look like some sort of vision port under the gun travel lock? It kind of looks like some sort of false upper hull on something that used HVSS suspension. _________________ RobG

They didn't clean the sprue off the model part well enough _________________ Bob Smart (bsmart@xecu.net)
