Hi everyone, I thought I would salute the opening of this forums by posting my most recent photographed MOC- my M113A5 in tundra camouflage. "The M113A5 is a new-build version of the venerable M113 APC designed to fight in a modern all-out war. The M113A4 which was delivered to the Canadian Forces in 2010-2014 is still a potent force, but the need for a new built version with modifications to the basic design was felt, and as a result, the A5 was rushed through development to get to the front line as soon as possible. The major improvements in the vehicle revolve around its engine, originally a standard diesel engine, but now upgraded to a fuel efficient hybrid electric. Other improvements are a new and unique Predator remote gun system with the "Throne" active protection system, and (most importantly for the troops) a new and highly efficient heater to keep the troops warm, and dispelling its reputation as a freezer." Thanks for viewing and any feedback would be great!
