The M113 Armored Personnel Carrier (APC) is a fully tracked armored vehicle that has been used by the United States Army and many other forces around the world since the 1960s. The M113 was developed by the Food Machinery Corporation (FMC) to provide a lightweight, versatile, and affordable armored vehicle that could be used for a variety of roles, including troop transport, reconnaissance, and fire support.
The M113A1 is an upgraded version of the M113 that was introduced in 1964. It features a more powerful engine, improved transmission, and better protection. The M113A1 was the primary version of the M113 used by the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War.
In Vietnam, the M113A1 was often used as an armored cavalry assault vehicle (ACAV). This configuration involved adding additional armor and weapons to the vehicle, including machine guns, grenade launchers, and recoilless rifles. The M113A1 ACAV proved to be a valuable asset in Vietnam, providing troops with mobility, firepower, and protection in a challenging environment.
The M113A1 ACAV has also been used in other conflicts, including the Persian Gulf War and the Iraq War. It remains in service with many countries around the world today.
I'm in awe on how 3D printing has revolutionized the model building industry. It's just freaking mind blowing!
That's a really nice set of accessories Andy. If I remember correctly the bottles strapped to the helmet were usually gun oil and it was the M60 gunner had it on his helmet. The mosquito in Asia in the 60/70's was fairly repellent proof till the Jungle formula came along. But it was aggressive twords a lot of plastics.
I got a tip for making wiring inside tanks and APC's like the Greyhound from a guy building a Tiger with full interior. He was using very fine solder wire as used in wiring circuits. Its easy to curve and shape around bulkheads and holds the shape you give it compared to fine wire which can try spring back into its original form.
I use finecwire found in most non hobby (non-model) hobby sties. Hobby Lobby usually has a good selection. Or even LOWES.
Awesome! Just need a sandbag set for the interior floor 😄
The food container is called "Mermite Cans" . They are for hot food being served in the field. I've had lots of Mac with beef from them.
Don't forget the green eggs and ham...
Or ice and beer...
Uv resin can become brittle from over exposing, so having black bags is probably a good idea.
Just incredible detail on those tanker helmets. Back when I was very nearsighted I *might* have been able to get somewhere close to it but not match it.
Those boots are perfect for adding footprints to dioramas.
That's a beautiful kit , im into the Tamiya 1.35 WW2 Kits but after seeing this m going to treat myself to something like this
Oh wow, those accessory kits a BEAUTIFUL 🙂
And can be used on other kits!!!! 👍👍
Happy new year andy
Cheers from Poland :) Great work
Great details
In the Army we called the CVC Helmet cables “spaghetti cable”, that’s how we connected to the intercom system
we called them drop leads
SLA printed (Stereolithography)was used. FDM (fused deposition modeling) can not produce the resolution of SLA. They are in black bags because UV light cures them and makes them harder to remove. Prolonged exposure to sunlight will cure them.
Awesome ! Will be ordering a set 👍
I'll be buying those sets shortly!
hi Andy,very nice items!happy new year,cheers Patrick from France👍
Wait, do these decals on the ammo boxes make sense? LC-10L333-033 and LC-80C501-027? For a Vietnam-Era APC?^^
Lookin good, Andy.
Thanks, Andy. I just HOPE the casting supports come off of the helmets smoothly. I can just see the resin wires on the helmets breaking while releasing the helmets. 😮 Any word on that?
Tempted by the model kit you showed me.
Hi Andy , you asked whats in the bottle ... Mike B has a video called .... The Vietnam War- Episode 24: "What is that bottle in your helmet?" should help with colour reference
Wow! Very nice!
The long wooden box looks incredibly similar to the green 7.62 ball ammo box that I have which still has all the stencils still on it. One of the stencils should show the date of manufacture.
Long wooden crate is a 4.2in M30 mortar round crate, held 2 rounds HE, White Phosphorus or Illumination (Jason Kit decals are for Illumination) in the asphalt impregnated fiber "Tootsie Roll" tubes.. An identical or nearly identical crate was used for the 105mm Howitzer rounds. The smaller wood crate is marked for trip flares, "booby trap" devices the Squad could emplace around the perimeter to give warning of enemy infiltration. Same crate size was used for M26 and M67 Fragmentation Grenades as well as 60mm Mortar HE ammunition. AFAIK, US 7.62mm linked for the M60 came in 200rd steel ammunition cans, each can holding two 100rd belts, each in a waxed cardboard box with a cotton bandoleer pouch. Then four of the 7.62 linked cans were issued in a thin wood/steel wire folding crate that folds around the 4 cans then the end wire passes through a loop formed in the other end then folded back over itself, with a thin wire/lead seal. The cans would be protected by 2 wood end caps that fit within the folded crate. .50BMG ammunition was issued similarly, but as 2 each 100rd steel cans in a wood/wire folded crate with end cap inserts. 7.62mm ammunition on stripper clips was issued for the M14 Rifle as two .50BMG sized steel ammo cans of 480rounds with 6 pocket bandoleers, each pocket holding two 10rd 7.62mm stripper clips in a cardboard sleeve, with one speedloader "spoon" issued per bandoleer, 8 rolled bandoleers in each can, two cans inside a folding wood/wire style crate. These folding ammo can crates were useful in the field as a lightweight, disposable, sit down to crap "commode" over a cathole dug with the entrenching tool (or larger D Handle Shovel off the front of the Track). Use of the folding ammo crate continued at least until the late 1990s when I got out. Murphy's Law: In the desert, you see no vehicles for miles until you sit down to take a dump, then every wheeled truck and tracked vehicle has to drive by you, all you can do is "sit n wave" finish your business.
@ my wooden 7.62 ammunition box is an Australian Army issued box. It has the date of construction and serial number, type of ball ammunition in the box (4 to 1 tracer) and the other details required as well as original straps and rope handles at the ends.
I do also own metal 50cal and 30 cal boxes and am also looking for more. But with no surplus store in my area, it is hard to find them.
Nice,do they have a set in 1/35 scale?
Will you be restocking more AFV models in the near future? I noticed a few of the kits I wanted to purchase are sold out. Nice accessories package Andy. Cheers from snowy northern Vermont!
Hello Andy will we be able to get these accessories kits and figures from a uk supplier
mozzie repellent or rifle oil ?
The mosquito repellent bottle has a flat top while LSA gun oil has a conical top, IIRC. Also, the mosquito repellent bottle is clear white while the gun oil bottle was dark green.
Actually, that's not correct. The mosquito repellant bottles are green. Write me and I'll be happy to send you a pic!
There was a question/answer reference the insect repellent bottle color. It was stated the bottle was white. Actually it was green. Almost OD, but definitely green (OD). be happy to send a pic. Just drop me a line.
Another great video Andy
Thank you !!!!
As a modeller I want all of these, but in 1/35. Even if the models in this scale are beautiful, they take too much space if you live in an apartment and will attract too much negative attention from the wife. But I would be buying all these -- vehicle, figures and complements, if they maintained the quality of details -- in 1/35.
Do you know if this is available in the UK?
I've tried emailing Jason Studios but they block my emails!
Check local model shops. If they don't have it they will bring it in.
Cant find them on your site
Won’t be here for a few weeks
I have this detail set from Jason Studios, not very impressed TBH. The two jerrycans are mirror images of each other meaning the strap detail is identical though reversed. The cans also need the handles hollowed out. I don't think they are 3D printed items. boots and jacket are ok but only 1 M16 supplied. The Mermite container would be much better if it had a seperate lid. I also got the crew helmet set which looks ok though the mic/cable looks VERY fragile. I havent attempted to remove anyhing from the carriers yet.
I think you should direct your issues with the product to the producer not Andy
@@ianstewartbrown5308 He's reviewing the product and so am I... They are not 'issues' just observations....
Just in case it wasn't expensive enough in the first place 😜
2 small things... The hobby industry needs to start moving away from sll these plastic bags and boxes.... There is nothing wrong with cardboard boxes and heavy paper sheets to separate the sprues... There is just too much rubbish packaging on kits... Second point.... The helmet with the goggles is not very well thought out.... The goggles should be separate from the helmet and they should be hollow so the helmet can be fully painted and then goggles attached and use some clear UV resin or clear styreen sheet to make the lense of the goggles
