Great news. Now we can expect further variants.
Look at the date on the PE frame : 2014!

Have they really been sitting on this thing for over two years and still haven't released? And yes, variants are always interesting. Wonder if they ever made an ambulance or wrecker with this chassis?

A built-up pic posted last September at Moxingfans:



Equally interesting is the trench digger -- coming soon as well:

Who cares? They're so ugly price is secondary, besides we all know that the manufacturers are pressing hard to screw us, the last model-building generation, for all we've got before we're gone. So I repeat: who cares how much? (though I'd guess in the high 60 USD)

Well, it'll be definitely less than the Panzershop kits... and oh yeah I wanna have them!

Trumpeter is going crazy with all that new stuff coming out (time and again!). I seriously (like I mean SERIOUSLY!) start to wonder if I will ever be able to complete them all in a lifetime (and I'm not even 40 by now )

This is a heavy artillery tractor so pretty much any of the larger Soviet artillery pieces produced by Trumpeter right now could be towed. Think D-20, A-19, ML-20. Lighter pieces could be towed, but it would have been considered overkill. This was designed to pull Heavy and Super-Heavy artillery, including rocket systems. It was produced from 1949-1979 and is still in use as in remote areas, like Siberia, for general transportation. Hope that helps.

The Br-2 152mm gun could be another option :



A 1/35th scale one is available....from Trumpeter Maybe you'll have to update the kit version as it's the M1935 model (different front wheels).

Thanks Frenchy.

Interesting option.
The AT-T has early spider wheels in this pic.
Looks cool.

B-4M 8 inches howitzer could also prolly do then. Also produced by Trumpeter.

Nice thing is that Trumpeter seems to have included the right sprockets (13 teeth) and tracks... saves some work I am sooo heavily looking forward to that trench digger! And then I hope they'll never do the BAT-M, since I worked my a... off to build the one from Panzershop, so I wanna be the only one on shows to have it!
