What seems like a couple years ago I stumbled across a bunch of high resolution photos of one of these field guns known as the "French 75" while doing research. Send me an e-mail and I'll send you my zip file.

Forgot all about that one Rex! Boy you're causing me to drool all over myself!

Imagine being the driver of that thing in Tunisia and coming face to face with a Tiger 500 meters away with nothing between you and him but a couple of cactus and a date palm! [:-]

Hey.........You were the one that sent me all of that French 75 stuff when I was building that model......I had to search my computer gizmo for it this afternoon, thanks again. And thanks for your involvment in the VVSS Sherman model. I hope the follow up models become a reality someday. If you are wondering what to do next, try this...............

I have on with the quad 50's on it. I plan to just make the gun system Rc. Some of these new camera pan and tilt servo mechanisms would work great for this. the model would be static and just used for area defense. You can put one of nick's IR targets on it with the sound and switch relays to knock it out of service or defeat it. Would make a good defense vehicle for a cross road or bridge crossing. wish 21st or some one would make one of the smaller Allied feild guns like they have the PaK40.
