How do you want yourTOWS?

The Dutch had serious amounts of TOW armed YP-765 PRAT's in their mechanised brigades by the mid 80's - 3 platoons of 4 YP-765 PRAT's in each YP-765 equipped mechanised battalion's combat support company:

As well as a separate brigade level Anti-Tank company with no less than 6 platoons of 4 YP-765 PRAT's:

The YP-408 equipped units had slightly less numbers of TOW's, but these were being phased out in favour of the YP-765 by 1985:

I've used them to "rough up" a few Warpac regiments on the table over the years using MSH rules in 6mm

Thanks for that Danish Landy/TOW picture too, clearest one of that system I have seen.

We've had the M151 Jeep sculpted now so that'll be going down to Phil this week for the TOW to be built on the back.  We'll do it as a basic model as well with the roof section.

Beyond that we can look at adding other TOW options down the line.  We'll also go through the master moulds and find the recoilless rifles that we've had for about 4 years and finally get those sorted out...!

I'll keep an eye out for it !

Good to hear about the Mutts.

I need those with LMGs (.30 cal), 60mm mortar, 106mm RR, and radio for my early, US Armored Cav units from the 1950s+.

Of course, the M38 Jeep, and/or Mutt, with a Davy Crockett nuclear weapon launched from a recoilless rifle.

A tripod ground mount with the 5 crew would be nice too, for those carried by M113 APCs.

In the 1950s and early 1960s, NATO was outmatched by the Soviets, so tactical nukes were believed to be the only way of stopping the Warsaw Pact hordes.

These little "pocket-nukes" were surprisingly underpowered, and were meant primarily to kill and incapacitate the the enemy's troops, but largely leave their armored vehicles unharmed.
