1/35 Canadian Cougar 6x6 AVGP
Trumpeter 1/35 Canadian Cougar 6x6 AVGP is a plastic kit of the Canadian wheeled fire support vehicle. It contains over 210 parts and markings for two vehicles. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
The Cougar belonged to the Canadian AVGP (Armoured Vehicle General Purpose) family of wheeled armoured vehicles, based on the six-wheeled version of the Swiss MOWAG Piranha. Unlike the Grizzly personnel carrier and the Husky recovery vehicle, it carried the turret of the British Scorpion reconnaissance vehicle with a 76 mm gun and served for fire support and crew training. It entered Canadian Army service in the late 1970s.
According to the manufacturer, the Trumpeter kit in 1/35 scale consists of over 210 parts. The decals allow one of two Canadian Army vehicles to be built – in green and black camouflage or in the white finish of UN peacekeeping forces, in which Cougars served in the Balkans.
In 1/35 scale the white UN version is a rewarding subject for subtle weathering and dust, while the green and black scheme sits well beside other NATO vehicles of the Cold War. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
Nationality: Canada. Period: Cold War, Present day.
