Landing Craft dimensions ?

[Dannyboy]

Hi can anybody please give me an idea of the dimensions of PS5 (LCT 5) and PS6 (LCI), many thanks in advance.

1:150th of the real thing of course!

LCT5 160x50mm, LCI 105x25mm approx

I've still got to put an Oerlikon on the LCT (Br130).

Apologies fro the quality of the photo - bit of a rush.

The LCT5 is 155x50mm and the LCI is 100x28mm, so not too far off the 1:150th measurements posted by fsn!

Actually, I measured my examples. With a ruler. 

But if you want to be exact, I'd go with Leon. He's probably got tools for measuring not provided by WH Smth.

I just assumed that a quality Pendraken product would be precise in its scaling. 

The new Centurion when it's released will be perfectly scaled, I'm sure. Precisely 1:150th of 25ft in the hull.

I was actually measuring the resin moulds, so yours is probably more accurate than mine!

And what about the inside? You know for putting your bases in 

Since I use infantry bases of 50 wide it's a no go anyway 

But you know you can always make bases specific for the crafts 

Or would two infantry bases fit if you put them in short side facing front? Giving you a 25X100 strip as such?

Oh!

The LCT5 is 60x22 at the stern widening to 42mmx75mm approx at the bow, though this tapers.

The LCI is 20x65mm.

So, no, a 25mm base won't fit either.

Cheers guys, I was actually mulling over options for LCT's etc for French Indochine riverine actions, originally looking at the Trumpeter 1/144 kit option but then when I actually had a look at the sprues via the net noticed it's not waterline  , however then I had a brainwave.....check out Pendraken, mounting figs on 2p's so fitting inside won't be a problem and we get a really stunning looking LCT model, result 

Will be ordering two of the LCT's in next order for amphib actions along the delta..
