I think I'll get the Gecko when it available. Do you have plans for vehicles with SA-4 chassis, say, 2S4 Tulpan 240mm mortar?

How I know scale drawings of vechicles on chassis GM-123/124/125 was only in Modelist Konstruktor magazine in 80-ies issues. But I doubt their accuracy.

Köszönöm a kérdést Orosz Gábor. Úgy tudom, nagyon jól angolul.

Some correction. Just one article was in Modelist Konstruktor in 80-ies.
2S3 Akacia. In MK # 12 1987


then were 2S4 Tulpan in MK # 12 1997

and 2P24 Krug in MK # 05 1999

by the way
in MK # 04 1999 was Kub drawing

and in MK # 8 2008 was a drawing of 3M8M missile for Krug


Hope this helps!

Draw original dimensions the missile diameters and long, in mm (1:1), the draw scale 1/30, original data missile diameter i-i 850mm, 850/35= 24,28mm.

Very nice Pawel. I tlooks like you have worked very hard to make this as accurate as possible, within reason anyhow. I cannot wait to get one.

Any idea on timeline and price? Of course I have to ask!

Hi Pawel,

In order to force you to finish this wonderful model and with my personal interest about the Greek version of the Gecko I make this decal sheet for 2 Greek vehicles.



If you want I can send you the decals file (illustrator CS) because this mean that you will probably include it in this splendid kit.

My references:







The sizes of decals are NOT in 1/35. They need scale down and adjustment on to the model!

Pawel, maybe you need to set up a pre-order tab on tank-mania for all the orders you already have! Good for you!

I will pre-order two.

No, this promotion was for first model.

At first I will send for customers from SA-4 Ganef.
I will send all emails in one time and sales order depends on the order of answers.
I ask for your patience because if they buy all this may take 2-3 months.
Will be available later for other interested.
