The new project from Modelcollect is a MAZ-74106 with 64N6 Big Bird Air Search Radar for S-300.
The kit is still on design phase, so as the MAZ-7410 with ChMZAP-5247 semi-trailer.

Trumpeter has announced the possibility of doing the somewhat smaller "Flaplid" radar unit in 1/35th. One can only hope for the bigger trailer mounted unit!

More than a mere "possibility" actually LINK Still hoping / Robin

I already have my order in at the LHS (Scale Reproductions - Louisville) for the FlapLid in 1/35th . . . . . . but my attitude is always "it ain't here, till it's here". I don't count these new kits as available until the box is in my hands!

That's a realistic approach to life In the dark ages, i.e. before internet, I was waiting for Italeris Raupenschlepper Ost (RSO), which I had read about. I kept asking for it in the local hobby store but it never turned up and then it was out of production again. Maybe the Swedish agent for Italeri and/or the local hobby store had decided that they didn't think there was a market for it in Sweden. In any case I couldn't get one. The next time around I made sure I got one, ordered it myself from some internet vendor and some years later I realised that I had a huge and well stocked hobby store right in front of me on my desk. Haven't visited the LHS the last 2-3 years .... / Robin

Geez this things going to be BIG! I can well see why it is offered -so far- only in 1/72 as no one would have room for anything approaching a dio with anything that oversized. Nevertheless I'd look at it in 1/35...

I am probably spoiled in that Scale Reproductions in Louisville is likely the best and biggest hobby shop for 600+ miles in all directions. They make a habit of getting in 2-3 copies of almost every major new release and will order just about anything you might ask for. However they are still trying to find a supplier for that new company "Das Werk' to order that new Faun truck with trailer. They said the Trumpeter FlapLid would not be any problem in that they get in everything new that Trumpeter offers.

Frank, this would not be big at 1/35... THIS would be big: (and it's available at 1/72 from W-Model)

Oh God! That's beautiful and scarily intimidating just thinking about all that photo etch to assemble! And yes, that would be freaking HUGE in 1/35. I'd like to see one in person though I can't see ever being deranged enough to build one myself. The Fries gantry set is already enough, thank you!

According to what the Modelcollect Hobby Inc Facebook page told me, they think this will be coming out in 3 months.
