The Scottish manufacturer, Accurate Armour has just announced several new releases AND published it's future release lists...

Two new releases for Armor and Ship Modellers are:

S18 - 1/76th Scale LCT(5) Tank Landing Craft
£127.65 (Export) £149.99 (U.K./E.C.)



This US designed craft was smaller than it's LCT(4) companion, and was used on all the D-Day invasion beaches to carry mixed loads of AFV's, 'soft-skin' vehicles and stores. It was also used throughout the world in all campaigns by the US Navy, with many surviving in service for decades.

Optional parts are included for both US Navy and Royal Navy use, and a further fittings set (S19) is available to make the British Royal Marines Armoured Support Group (RMASG) version. The model is packed with fine detail including 20mm cannon, bow ramp 'fingers', exhaust system, lifebelts and even buckets for that rough crossing!

Decals are included for specific D-Day Invasion craft on Omaha, Utah, Juno and Sword beaches, and the invasion of Elba.

S17 - 1/76th Scale LCF(4) Landing Craft Flak £212.76 (Export) £249.99 (U.K./E.C.)



The LCT(4) was a 185.5 foot long British designed and produced 'shallow draught' tank landing craft which in it's normal form could carry 9 Shermans/Cromwells, or 6 Churchills, or 300 Tons of stores. We make this model as kit S13.

Many LCT(4) were converted to provide AA (Flak) support for the D-Day convoys, beaches and ports. This version, designated LCF(4) for 'Landing Craft Flak' is armed with 8x 20mm Oerlikon Cannons and 4x 40mm Pom-Pom cannons.

This massive model by Dan Taylor is 29.25" (745mm) long and 6.25" (157mm) wide and consists of main castings in resin and a huge quantity of other fittings in resin, and etched brass. All 20mm & 40mm cannons, with fully detailed shields and sights, stowage and ALL fittings are included. The master model was designed using original British War-time shipyard drawings.
