Contemporary Israeli

Ho intenzione di fare un esercito ultra-moderno (>1982) in 1/300.

Ecco le foto dei miei GHQ:

Un sito con parecchie foto: http://www.israeli-weapons.com/index_vehicles.htm.

Un esempio di esercito da 3000 punt, anno 1990:

Ho gia’ acquistato un po’ di pezzi, che dovrebbero andare bene per il 1982, alcuni fino al 2000+:

1 comando di Battlegroup 1982-90. (con Merkava I, Zelda e jeep)
2 comandi 1982 (1 MerkavaI + jeep, 1 Centurion+Blazer + jeep).
1 comandi 1983+ (1 Zelda modificato + jeep)
3 comandi 2000+. (1 Nachzarit+ light truck, 2 M577 verdi+ light truck)
9 Merkava I (H&R) (vanno bene dal 1982 fino al 2000), ho pezzi H&R

Merkava IV da GHQ

9 M113 Zelda (Scotia), meglio il pezzo Scotia che ha le corazze laterali, dopo Libano ’82. Quello in foto e’ incluso l’82, dice Vittorio, ed ha ragione.

4 RBY da ricognizione (Skytrex?),
4 RBY con TOW (Skytrex?).
9 Centurion con Blazer (Scotia)
Magach 6 e 7 (ordinati a GHQ)

Magach 7

Magach 6

6 Nagmashot H&R

5 Achzarit (H&R)

Namer

fanteria (alcuni H&R, altri ordinati a GHQ)

Un piccolo esercito per Cold War Commander.

Basi

Ho usato lo stesso sistema per i pezzi europei. Colla da soffitti di polistirolo, colorata con qualche goccia di tinta marrone.
Macchie di erba secca Games Workshop, wasteland tufts di Army painter, Erba alta verde-marrone. Qualche piccolo sassolino bianco.

NOTES:

MBT may be Merkava or Magach. Infantry Combat Teams may be in Achzarit, Zelda, M113A2 or Classical. Engineer AFV may be Puma, Tiran dozer, Sho’t dozer, or M728. Mineclear tank may be Puma w/Nochri, Sho’t mineroller, M60 mineplow or Merkava TWMP. In 1990s HMMWV has replaced jeep in regular units.
From 1997, Gill replaces Dragon in infantry units. The main heavy ATGW in infantry battalion service is TOW2. Other ATGWs are used in specialised battalions (Moran, Meiter and Maglan).
Because Israeli higher unit organisation is extremely flexible possible support units are listed separately and may be mix-and-match assigned.
Recon are listed mainly as infantry stands, but they may be given HMMWVs to travel in or they may arrive by helicopter.
Infantry battalions may also be heli-lifted or amphibious or in M113.
