Marder 1A3 (IFV) Military Vehicle

cults3d

This is a 1/64 scale model of the Marder, a German infantry fighting vehicle operated by the German Army as the main weapon of the Panzergrenadiere from the 1970s to the present day. Developed as part of Germany's rebuilding of its armoured fighting vehicle industry, the Marder has proven itself to be a successful and reliable infantry fighting vehicle design. While it once featured unique elements such as a fully remote machine gun on the rear deck and gun ports on the sides for infantry to fire through, these features have been removed or simplified in later upgrade packages to bring it more in line with modern IFV design (the MG has been moved to be coaxial, the gun ports entirely welded shut and uparmored). It is overall a simple and conventional machine with one large rear exit hatch and three top hatches for mounted infantry to fire from. The Marder is currently being phased out by its successor, the Puma. Note: This design is protected under International Law through a "BY-NC-ND" Creative Commons License.
