ALL NEW TOOLINGM1151 ENHANCED ARMAMENT CARRIER
1:35 Scale
The M1151 is an improved version of the standard High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV). It has a heavier chassis and improved engine over the M1025A2, as well as allowing for the addition and removal of "Frag" armor protection specifically designed to protect the crew from the IED threats regularly faced in operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. The M1151 is built on an Expanded Capacity Vehicle (ECP) chassis that allows for more passengers or for carrying additional supplies. Armament can include mounting and firing of the Mk 19 Mod 3 automatic grenade launcher, M2, caliber, .50 machine gun, M60 and M240 7.62mm machine guns, and M249 5.56mm Squad Assault Weapon (SAW).
Academy has given the armor modeler the ultimate in precision and design with this 100% new tooling kit. The images speak volumes as to the accuracy and incredible scale detail of this model. The cab meticulously includes all audio and "glass"comm equipment. Accessories such as tools, "jerry cans" and fire extinguisher are included. Detailed engine and intricate suspension and a very accurate .50 Cal machine and antenna system are included. The vehicle rides on new style, amazingly detailed (and easy to paint) wheels and tires. All doors and accessories are position-able. For the ultimate in realism, a photo-etched fret and two crew figures round out this superb vehicle.
