Reviews

"Adding to the excellent Volume I, this edition covers the upgrading, development work, and in service history. Use by export customers such as Cyprus make for very interesting images as does the coverage of the Operation 'Daguet' vehicles used in 1991.Paul Middleton" – Scale Military Modelller Magazine
