T72 M1, Lion Of Babylon (Asal Babil), Iraq / Gulf War

[Rodolfo Torres Vazquez]

Hello friends!

Here one of my last works.   The T-72M1, known in Iraq as the Lion of Babylon or Asad Babil (Arabic: اسد بابل) is a version of the Soviet T-72 tank, produced at the Bumar Labedy S.A. factory.

Tamiya 1/35 - This Kit contains Commander figure, Commander hatches can be open or closed, photo cut for radiator grille, detailed 12.7mm machine gun, and plastic tubing for fuel tank.   I hope you like it!

Lovely weathering, looks suitably beaten up.

Never got the Soviet idea of driving round with what's really two incendiaries strapped to the back of your tank!
