Not to go on about this too much, but Dragon could used their new M4A1(76) as the starting point. Of course they'd need a new turret (or modification to the old ones they've got). But otherwise they'd only be looking at maybe one big sprue for the boat fittings and actuators, etc. Probably another sprue for the flange that goes around the hull and the 'bow' fitted to the transmission cover. And finally a last piece (vinyl?) for the skirts thenselves. Wouldn't be too bad.
Most of the problems I had were with the tough fit of many of hte large resin parts.
