The F/A-18E/F Super Hornet is a larger and more advanced variant of the F/A-18C/D Hornet. An early version was marketed by McDonnell Douglas as Hornet 2000 in the 1980s. The Hornet 2000 concept was an advanced version of the F/A-18 with a larger wing, longer fuselage to carry more fuel and more powerful engines. The F/A-18E/F fuselage was stretched by 860 mm to make room for fuel and future avionics upgrades and increased the wing area by 25%. However, the Super Hornet has 42% fewer structural parts than the original Hornet design. The General Electric F414 engine, developed from the Hornet's F404, has 35% more power. The Super Hornet can return to an aircraft carrier with a larger load of unspent fuel and munitions than the original Hornet. The term for this ability is known as "bringback". Bringback for the Super Hornet is in excess of 9,000 pounds (4,100 kg). The Super Hornet first flew in 1995. Full-rate production began in September 1997. The Super Hornet entered service with the United States Navy in 1999, replacing the F-14 Tomcat since 2006. Features The kit consists of over 330 parts Fuselage & wing with finely engraved panel lines Canopy made from clear parts Finely detailed cockpit,gear cabin, Crew seats with photo-etched seat belts and harnesses.

Further development of the Challenger 1 by Vickers Defence Systems resulted in the Challenger 2 MBT, of which 386 have been ordered by the British Army, with deliveries running from 1994 through to 2,000. Oman has ordered 18 Challenger 2 MBTs. With the introduction of Challenger 2, all remaining Chieftain and Challenger 1 MBTs will be phased out of service with the British Army. Although similar in appearance to Challenger 1, the Challenger 2 MBT has many improvements including a brand new turret armed with the latest 120mm L30 rifled tank gun firing a new APFSDS-T (Armour Piercing Fin Discarding Sabot Tracer) projectile with a depleted uranium penetrator. The new computerized fire control system, all electric gun control and stabilizing system, and stabilized sights for the commander and gunner give a high degree of first round hit probability under both day and night conditions. Standard equipment includes a thermal camera over the manlet of the 120mm gun which provides a picture for gunner and commander, as well as an NBC (Nuclear, Biological, Chemical) system, mounting points for additional fuel drums at the rear, and mounting points for a Combat Dozer Blade at the front of the hull. Features The kit consists of over 190 parts Newly tooled parts in accurate detail Specification Model Dimension: Length: 238mm Width: 81mm Total Plastic Parts: 190+ Total Sprues: 4 sprues , upper hull , lower hull and turret

Panzer III was the common name of a medium tank that was developed in the 1930s by Germany and was used extensively in World War II. The official German designation was Panzerkampfwagen III Sd Kfz. 141 (abbreviated PzKpfw III) translating as "armoured fighting vehicle". It was intended to fight other armoured fighting vehicles and serve alongside the support Panzer IV; however, as the Germans faced the formidable T-34, stronger anti-tank guns were needed. Since the Panzer IV had a bigger turret ring, the roles were reversed. The Panzer IV mounted the long barrelled 7.5 cm KwK 40 gun and engaged in tank-to-tank battles. The Panzer III became obsolete in this role and for most purposes was supplanted by the Panzer IV. From 1942, the last version of Panzer III mounted the 7.5 cm KwK 37 L/24, better suited for infantry support. Production of the Panzer III ended in 1943. However, the Panzer III's capable chassis provided hulls for the Sturmgeschütz III assault gun until the end of the war.

Namer is an Israeli armoured personnel carrier based on a Merkava Mark IV tank chassis.[5] Namer was developed by and is being assembled by the Israeli Ordnance Corps. It has entered service in limited numbers with the Israel Defense Forces since the end of 2008. Due to budgetary constraints, the introduction of the Namer into the IDF has been slow, leaving the ground forces dependent on the M113 until 2027.  Features The kit consists of over 1100 parts The kit w/refined detail Multi-slide moulded lower hull and upper hull Individual tracks Photo etched parts included Specification Model Dimension: Length: 240mm Width: 113.5mm Total Plastic Parts: 1100+ Total Sprues: 16 sprues , up hull , lower hull and tracks Photo Etched Parts: 1 piece

The BMD-1 is a Soviet airborne amphibious tracked infantry fighting vehicle (IFV), which was introduced in 1969 and first seen by the West in 1970. BMD stands for Boyevaya Mashina Desanta (Боевая Машина Десанта, which literally translates to "Airborne Combat Vehicle").

The Flakpanzer V Ausf. A was a conceptual anti-aircraft tank based on the Panther chassis, developed as a potential successor to the Möbelwagen and Wirbelwind. Equipped with a turret mounting twin 3.7cm autocannons, the design was planned to utilize the Panther Ausf. D hull for greater armor and mobility. However, during the prototype phase, the firepower of the twin 3.7cm guns was deemed insufficient, and the project was ultimately cancelled. This 1/48 scale plastic model kit by Hobby Boss faithfully recreates this what-if design with sharp detail and historical accuracy, making it a unique addition for collectors and WWII armor enthusiasts. Features The kit consists of over 230 parts  Newly tooled parts in accurate detail Length: 125mm, Width: 45mm 5 sprues , upper hull and lower hull

The VK 30.01 (P) was the official designation for a medium tank prototype produced by Germany between 1940 and 1941. Two prototype hulls were made. The tank never entered serial production, but was further developed into the VK 4501 Tiger (P). The VK 30.01 (P) was sometimes known, and referred to, as the Porsche Typ 100. Features The kit consists of over 400 parts The kit w/refined detail Photo etched parts included Individual track Specifications Model Dimension: Length: 262.1mm   Width: 89.7mm    Total Plastic Parts: 400+ Total Sprues: 9 sprues , upper hull and lower hull 

The F-105 armed with missiles and a cannon; however, its design was tailored to high-speed low-altitude penetration carrying a single nuclear bomb internally. First flown in 1955, the Thunderchief entered service in 1958. As the largest single-engined fighter ever employed by the USAF, the single-seat F-105 would be adapted to deliver a greater iron bomb load than the four-engined ten-man strategic bombers of World War II. The F-105 would be best remembered as the primary strike bomber over North Vietnam in the early stages of the Vietnam War.
