Airborne Units- BTR-RD

With the up coming Arctic Strike game I decided to try a  conversion of a BTR-D into a BTR-RD "Robot" anti tank vehicle for my Soviet Airborne anti tank company.

BTR-RD "ROBOT"

 This was quite a simple conversion as it only consisted of adding the missile tube and launch post to a H&R BTR-D(SM21). This was done using a piece of brass rod and a off cut of plastic rod.

  Also in use by the Soviet Airborne, and later on Soviet Naval Infantry units, are the 2S9  "NONA-S" 120mm  Airborne Mortar carrier (SM70). These are also by H&R.
