I have been building these Minitanks vehicles for a long time. At first it would come with a set of 203mm
and 175mm artillery rounds, all loose. Then later they were removed. In the US Army you can see this
vehicle in the EW units, Artillery, Engineers, SP Mortar PLT and Mech Infantry BTL's. The M548 has been
used by 20 other nations.
Right before Arsenal M took over, Minitanks started selling their models in kits form. There were some
big surprises in the new yellow box. It seems that Arsenal M in their orange box has kept the same
format.
