Hi Christophe,
I do have a few pictures of the mine roller used on the Strv 103. I took these pictures about 14 years ago during a scratch building project on a strv 103C I was doing at the time. They are not mounted on a tank though. I have to find these old non-digital pictures and scan them before I can send them to you.
As far as I remember they are not very good and do not show all features of the roller but they might give at least one aspect of the roller.
The roller is based on the KMT4 roller also used by the Israelis. Have a look at my Merkava II with KMT4 on this site. This one is very close to the Swedish one, in fact the wheels which I had to scratch build is made after close inspection on the Swedish contemporary, though Strv 103 only had 3 parallel wheels on each roller. The kit I used for the IDF KMT 4 is an old AEF-design kit which wasn't of a very high standard. Lots of warped and half filled parts. I believe the Academy kit may be close enough to use as a base. I will try to find the pics, scan them and send to you as soon as possible.
regards / ingvar |
