The Soviets are getting ready to roll right over those FT 17s. Nice Job. PM sent.

They certainly should, by the laws of historical dialectism! Not to mention that thanks to the heroic feats of the Soviet engineers, every tank has twice the armament of the proletariate-exploiting bourgoisie FT-17!

[That said, the short 37 mm guns on these sort of vehicles were not exactly ideal for anti-tank action.]

When the armour on these things is <5mm in places harsh words or a stiff breeze would suffice... lol
The description was 'bullet resistant' - my water resistant watch didn't like the damp.

I recall reading that in the Rif War at least one inferior FT-17 tank of the oppressive bourgeoisie imperialists was taken out by a brave local anti-imperialist pushing a sword or long dagger through a weak spot (vision slit?) and to the capitalist lackey crewman inside. (There probably would not have been much room to dodge inside, even if you knew such a blade was aimed at.)

As far as I know, no T-18 was ever taken out by such attack, again proving the superiority of the Soviet design!

A parade of MS-1s

Sadly about half have some print defects. 
Got it sorted now though.

If anyone else needs a slightly wonky MS-1 let me know.
