US Army, (M6A2 Linebacker)

The U.S. Army’s M2/M3 Bradley family is one of the world’s most famous infantry fighting vehicles (IFVs), and it has successfully participated in such operations as Desert Storm and Operation Iraqi Freedom. Perhaps not quite so well known is the M6 Linebacker variant of the Bradley. The M6 is an air-defense vehicle found in heavy armored divisions, and it mounts four FIM-92A Stinger missiles in the launcher unit on the left of the turret instead of the two TOW missiles in a regular Bradley. The Linebacker system employs a FAAD (Forward Area Air Defense) C3I suite that allows firing while stationary or on the move. Ten spare Stinger missiles are carried inside the vehicle. The 29.9-ton M6 still retains the standard turret armament of an M242 25mm Bushmaster cannon and 7.62mm M240C coaxial machine gun, but the easiest recognition feature remains the turret-mounted missile launcher unit. Dragon Armor has previously issued highly detailed Bradley before, and now the new M6A2 Linebacker has joined the range. It is fitted with the distinctive launcher unit for the Stinger missiles and it is finished in a sand-colored camouflage scheme to represent a vehicle serving in Iraq. All the relevant details of the new M6A2 is portrayed. Additionally the vehicle has been carefully weathered to replicate the effects of Iraq's sandy and dusty environment.

This beautiful recreation of the M2 Bradley Fighting Vehicle is constructed almost entirely of die-cast plastic, which allows for the greatest possible level of detailing. The mold features a rotating turret with elevating cannon. Hatches, hinges, amour plating and turret are all stunningly accurate, and the same level of detailing has been applied to the vehicle’s track system. Further enhancement techniques such as the application of subtle airbrushed weathering effects, hand-painted tools and lights along with pad-printed unit markings provide a finishing touch.
