Tankograd Militarfahrzeug Special No 5005.
Soft cover, A4 size, 64 pages
Review by Peter Brown
The book is fully illustrated in colour showing the many types of equipment used there, including Leopard 2, Marder infantry vehicles, Gepard and Roland AA vehicles, Wiesel, M113 series carriers, Luchs armoured cars, Fuchs troop carriers, the Skorpion mine layers and variety of soft-skin support vehicles. Photos include close-ups of simulation equipment and show them very much "in action" with very effective locally-applied camouflage. Also shows are the troops themselves, both vehicle crews and infantry, in the latest-issue uniforms with the G36 5.56mm rifles.
An ideal choice for modern army modellers seeking good reference material, produced to the same high quality as the parent Tankograd Militarfahrzeug series, it is available from several distributors. For more details contact the publishers Verlag Jochen Vollert on jochenvollert@tankograd.com
