Little bit of progress on the Casspir today.

Excellent @Springbok

One thing though

Most SADF infantry never used the casspir

Only buffel for army

Only after angola did infantry start using the casspir extensively

@Kooijpolloi Ah didn't know that. Although there are images of troops maybe Koevoet? In nutria uniforms sitting on a Casspir here

All koevoet

Talked to an ex tiffie about it

Ah alright. No worries there as I'll be including Koevoet as well

They werent even allowed to repair or work on casspirs

The tiffies?

Only noddys ratels and buffels

Tiffie is a mechanic

A soultiffie is a priest

Sieltiffie

Ja I know. Didn't know that the tiffies weren't allowed to work on the Casspirs

Not the army ones

He said the shittest job on a ratel was changing the diffs

I can imagine! I've been reading Eye of the Firestorm by Roland de Vries. (thick ass book) and he mentions the Tiffies on numerous occasions

Yeah on the Kwêvoëls

The Kwêvoël is going to be an absolute monster to model... I'm leaving it for last 😬

Ja good luck man 😁

Thanks! I'll need it.

@Kooijpolloi Looks like 101 Battalion used Casspirs as seen here

Hmm nice

Incoming update on the Casspir in two mikes

Jirr did you sleep lol

Nope 😐

I model late at night. No distractions that way.... As my PC is in the lounge at the moment. Am going to move my PC into my bedroom soon

And also getting a new PC so I can finally move on from this potato.
