[MOC] Military Missile launcher "Version B"

[mechamike]

Hello all!

This is not my latest creation, but I thought I'd share it anyhow. I built this late 2011 but never got around to post it here (until now)

This fall I scrapped most of this and used some in another military MIOC that I hopefully will post soon.

This build just took a turn of it self and was not what I wanted to build form the beginning. ( I was going to build a civilan truck but had my tan brick's in the living room.)

It ended up as a modern version of a Katyusha but with missiles instead of rockets. At the time I built it i was fairly pleased with it. Now I look at it as a reminder that I have improved my MOCs

by listening to other Moc'ers creative feedback and and actually building not only browsing the forums

I present to You the Missile launcher "Version B" its features six missiles fired from a low heat emitting tube.

It has its own radar (with IFF), long rage radio link and also a optical raised view port (complete with IR / low visibility capacity)

Front view

Top down

Driver cab, with blast prof front window, risible radar and long range antenna.

Six pack full off BOOM

Front with winch, and a view port (can be linked to HUD helmet.(nice to have if parked behind a shelter or behind a crest or driving in complete darkness).

Thank You for watching!

I love military vehicles. I love tan bricks. I love this vehicle. The blast proof window and the double grill are very cool.

The more I look at it the more I like the details you've managed to incorporate into it.

Thanks for sharing it with us!

Thanks for nice words, This was my pretty much first attempt to build trucks/vehicles. But It was not the last.. I like to build in this scale.

I think enlightened bricks has a truck that looks just like this.

Ok.. any link to his page were he/she showed it would be appriciated. (cant find the user here on EB?)

I believe that ''kermit'' means the brand that is Lego clone, not the user.

Ahhhhrg... my eyes is filling up with tears, not only by discovering yet another hideous clone brand, but to hear my MOC looks like a clone brand truck really wacked my Moc karma..

Hmm... I looked at the clone model, and I must say that your model looks 2,013% better than that clone hunk of junk.

[un]enlighten[ed] ought to be ashamed of themselves for copying official LEGO sets...
