Saw this over on the PMMS site, I really like it!! The Japanese made many of these types of tanks, aircraft, gun emplacements. They were intended to fool allied photo/recon planes. Believe it or not, it worked.

Photos of these phony weapons exist in the U.S. National Archives.

I have toyed with the idea of offering this one myself, guess now I won't have to.

Nice to see something original from VP.

And it's not Tiger I related!!! Too many Tigers already on the market. (IMHO)
