These look very promising is there any update on the U.S. jeeps?

Thanks,

This Tiger II model looks great. I'm looking forward to seeing what the paint scheme(s) it will have. WP armor is really well done.

Covering all the iconic German equipment. Robin.

A WP King Tiger was inevitable, I can’t wait to see it produced!

The Flakpanzer IV interests me most . The KT will need to be something special with JJD and FL have done multiples and moving tracks isn’t a reason for must buy

Still only German armored vehicles !.
But this time, I'm quite happy because the KingTiger is my favorite tank, especially in terms of late war elaborate camouflage painting schemes.
The model looks very detailed, even more so than other brands (I don't have any models yet).
I noticed a rain guard for sight aperture on the front turret plate.
This is specific to late production, theoretically from October 1944, but in practice this modification did not routinely appear until January 1945.
But I don't see some later specifications inherent to this period, for example the four vent lines for fuel system, no more jack and wooden block at the rear, ....
And of course, I hope for accurate markings and paintwork (IMHO, colors of the Tiger I are not very successful).
By the way, as Brian said, what about the US jeeps, the only Allied vehicle planned ?.

In the lucrative strategy of various brands to produce essentially German armored vehicles, I really don't understand War Park's strange choice regarding this model.
Indeed, the Flakpanzer IV Möbelwagen with 2cm Flakvierling was only a unique trial model completed in October 1943 and whose project was abandoned in December of the same year.
Instead, the model with the single 3.7 cm Flak 43mm gun was approved and produced from March 1944 to March 1945 for a total of 240 units ( a post-war report said 243).
I think it would be constructive for War Park to produce also the 3.7 cm model.
