Title: Carden Loyd M1936 - Any plans out there?
Post by: GrumpyOldMan on 19 November 2013, 12:21:41 AM
Hi

Basically what it says in the subject heading, anybody have any good blueprints, plans or drawings of this tank, specifically showing the turret?

Thanks for any help

Cheers

These are not bad and hopefully what you are after Grumpy. I may have other sites in my bookmarks at home and will check tonight.

Thanks for your reply. I was looking for the Carden Loyd M1936 'Dutchman' tank as used in China and the Baltic:-

Still haven't been able to find any blueprint or plans yet but I did find a review of the Ostmodel 1/72 version with plan and side views of the bits and pieces. http://www.mondo72.com/Review-Ostmodels-VickersM36.html (http://www.mondo72.com/Review-Ostmodels-VickersM36.html)

I was thinking of using another brand of Belgian T15 with a scratchbuilt Dutchman turret.

Will keep looking

Edit:-

Found a side view on a Russian site:-
