Scooter Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Can anyone identify this modern Iraqi army vehicle? Seen recently. Need to know make/model/links and maybe if any kits exist? Thanks in advance. AC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Bell Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Not 100% sure, but it looks like a modern version of the Shortland Armoured Car, which was based on a LandRover chassis. This one almost looks "Toyota-ish" doesn't it? There wasn't a kit of the original in injection and I'm pretty sure in anything else either. There were conversion articles in various modeling magazines back in the 70's and 80's. Anyone else got better info? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warwheels Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 The vehicle is an Otokar APC. Otokar is a Turkish Company that makes a bunch of armored vehicles (Cobra and Akrep) as well as license built Land Rovers. For more info on this APC, check out the link http://www.otokar.com/en/products/product_...il.aspx?urun=42 There's no kit available as far as I know.
