And now for something completely different....
It is a scratchbuild project I am doing for a GB over on FSM

1/35 M-388 "Davy Crocket" - a low yeild (0.1 kilo ton) tactical nuclear bomb that the US Army had in the 50's to late 60's

It was manned by a crew of 3 and launched warhead for a max of 1.5 miles using a recoil-less gun
It was extremely in-acurate but who cares if you are hurling such fire power anyway.

The basics are mase from a 1/72 1000 lb bomb I shortened and the tube is of sprue and drop tanks.
If I can find a 1/38 Jeep I will mound it on that, or just make the tri-pod it used.

When you have to use this bomb with a max range of 2 miles and an effective imidiate kill radius of almost 1/2 that....you know you are in BIG trouble!
