“Panhard” AML-20 – the French armored fighting vehicle

In the fifties of the 20th century the French army used British-made Daimler “Ferret” armored cars.But the Armee de terre decided, that this type of equipment of its own production must be in its arsenal.The construction and production of a new armored car was started by the company “Panhard”, which started the production of AML armored vehicles in 1960.Since then, more than 4,000 machines for various purposes have been produced.Armored vehicles AML are in the armed forces of more than 30 countries of the world.Apart from France, the largest number of armored vehicles of this type is owned by SAR, which bought over 1,300 “Panhard” AMLs and acquired a license to manufacture them.In SAR they are produced under the name “Eland” Mk.7.There are quite a few versions of this car, sometimes quite different.

A very complex albeit small scale model with full interior and exterior detailing, painted in United Nations camouflage.Model for intermediate and advanced modelers only.True, it is possible to make a model without internal equipment, but it will not be simple either.
