2025 ARMORTEK KIT SURVEY

Over the last few years we have brought out a whole series of kits as a direct result of your feedback - kits like the Pershing, JagdPanther, Hetzer, Leopard 2A4, and more recently the Sd Kfz 7, 88mm Flak 36 and the upcoming Challenger 2.

So, in keeping with what has become and annual tradition, here is your opportunity to once again influence our future production plans.

We have added in some "guide pricing" next to the names of the models. This is a rough estimate of the price at the current rates.

Thanks in advance for your input and we look forward to the results.

If your not all fed up with the Bergepanther, here's the video of the heavy tow bar trials. The suspension is just starting to loosen up right now, allowing the nice rise a dip of the vehicle this will just get better with some run time.

It's not bad is it Vince, relatively simple to (if a bit bulky) and the noise of the unit adds to the overall sound of the vehicle, sort of like a heavy metal transmission gear wine/turbo come supercharger that's proportionate to rpm. Maybe I should patent it? 8)
