AMX-10RCR



The AMX-10RC is a light reconnaissance vehicle built by GIAT. Over 300 are in service in the French Army. In addition, 108 vehicles were sold to Morocco and 12 to Qatar. The AMX-10RC is a wheeled and heavily armed version of the AMX-10P combat vehicle. The AMX-10RC should not be confused with the AMX-10P; they share automotive components but otherwise have completely different battlefield roles. The AMX-10RC is amphibious and has very good mobility. It is usually used for reconnaissance missions in dangerous environments or for fire support.

AMX-10 RCR in 1/35 from Tiger Model, painted with A.Mig French WWII colors. Reason why I chose French WWII color is because French NATO colors have little bit different shades than for example German NATO colors, and this set of colors looks like a perfect solution for it.  AFV crew are from Djiti`s production.
