Need help !!! Trying to find out name of Military Vechicle !!!
Posted by MLabonte on Tuesday, November 1, 2011 2:24 PM

 

  Need some help people !!!! I have a buddy who served in the Iraq war and trying to find out if any model makers out there make the vechicle ? !!!! He was a medic and drove a vechicle called the BISON -  kinda of a humvee/tank mix I guess you could say.

I tried to google it and had nothing but bad luck ! It is showing a Bison vechicle but it is not the correct one. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank's   - Matt

It would be helpful if you described the vehicle a little better... Wheeled or tracked? If wheeled how many? 4 ,6, or 8? Apparently it is armored. If he was a driver, he had pull maintenance on the vehicle and should know the nomenclature (M series number). Over 25 years later I can still recite the -10 manual number for the M901 ITV I filled it out so many times...

Was it the Canadian Army LAV Bison Series?

Lots of kits from this family of vehicles kicking around. Best bet is to start with the Trumpeter LAV series and work from there. This site should help you. http://www.warwheels.net/LAVbisonAPCindex.html
