MENG just released images and videos of their Warrior test model. Enjoy!
FV510 is nearing completion of testing.

The movable track is made by a new process, which has good mobility and high reliability, and can be assembled without trimming.

The FV510 project will use PE with no connection points, no need for scissors or blades, and can be installed directly.

That is G's point Dan. Meng announced one but it never released it. Discussed in several places, including pics of the test model: LINK LINK LINK

For the Chieftain they had only 3D models. They probably cut their losses before making the tools for it. No disrespect for the Chieftain, but it is not the most popular or brilliant fighting machine... This has gotten significantly closer to completion. I wonder if they release PE slats for it separately. The Accurate Armour ones seem to be for a slightly different version. A WRAP2 version would be welcome, as well. I got burned by the Cromwell guy years ago.

Personally I'm thrilled that the slat armour is in styrene as the PE for that endeavor was always my bugaboo.

The Meng Warrior kit is now available and in stock at some Hong Kong shops. I have placed my order with Lucky Model for 2 kits.

At Sprue Bros now. Ordered mine already. I built my first Warrior way back in the early 90's.......Accurate Armor. Love the vehicle, haven't completed my Academy one...this one will will not sit on the shelf very long.

I have it in my stash, it's next in line after I finish the 1/16th. Stuart build I have going on here. Donald It's really nice even if I think the Bar Armor looks a little heavy
