Description
The brand-new Hunter AFV was designed by ST Kinetics specifically for the defense of Singapore and to replace the aging M113 APCs in Singaporean service. The ability to swim was sacrificed in order to achieve sufficient protection (a NERA armor kit). It carries an unmanned Israeli Samson 30 turret by Rafael, armed with a 30mm Bushmaster Mk.44 Autocannon and two internal Spike-LR or Spike-LR2 ATGM launchers that are usually hidden in the turret and only appear when the vehicle is ready to fire. The true strength of this vehicle lies, however, in its integrated ARTEMIS Battlefield Management System that allows it to work as the ultimate infantry force multiplier. The Hunter is likely the most modern IFV in service. Mass production of this vehicle is scheduled to launch in 2020.
1/35 scale, unpainted resin kit.
