Awesome! Better late than never!
Would you be willing to swing at the Ukrainian BTU-3 and BTU-4 I'd brought up a while ago (though this one was this year)?

I not only approve but also welcome more such tweaks and compilations

The Wikipedia article on this (last I read - it may have been updated or edited since, I'll check in a bit) made this out to be more of a, "self-propelled gun." Is there some hybrid role, or alternative models, or just a Wiki contributor error?

Ah, here's the source of my confusion.
K2 Black Panther - Wikipedia
K9 Thunder - Wikipedia
I had just woken up, read @typhoon353's post, and recalled the K9 article as a K2 article. Don't mind me.

Excellent!
I'm planing to make a few 8-wheeled APCs to go with the VBCI - Boxer and Stryker spring to mind. Has anyone already made these?

I believe the saturation of his talent has led to the great majority of units used in SL scenarios for the last several years - outside, "terrain," "hazard," and very unusual custom units, having the, "GB," initials in the lower corner.

Out of curiosity, is the vehicle named after the sport fighter, the breed of dog, or something else.

Although, they seem to use the same camo as the German ones.....

The armed version for German Army named PAH-1 was armed with the wire-guided Euromissile HOT ATGM. Produced from the ‘70s to the first years of 2000, the Bo 105 achived commercial success and equipped the armies of several countries.
@Fairline Very nice! Will you do the new Britsh Ajax now?

Thanks Erika; yeah I was interested in an isometric view if any exist (should have been more specific). Also, I think I read somewhere that the Dutch had specified a different turret for the Boxer, or was that maybe Lithuania? I'll look it up!

Very nice T!
As for the Ajax, at the current time it's a disaster area that's unlikely to be introduced into service. The vehicle has major noise and vibration issues and is undrivable for more than 30 minutes without disabling it's crew!
