                        What is the AFV next to the column of Shermans?

                        Thanks, Chaz

                        I was thinking it was one of the Canal Defence Light tanks but apparently it's a BARV (Beach Armoured Recovery Vehicle).

                        Does anyone make a model or resin conversion for this in 1/35th?

                        ditto . It could either tow or push a vehicle out of the water .If the vehicle was submerged a diver was taken onboard to attach the tow cable under water .

                        Based on the M4A2, a resin conversion exists from Resicast.  Nice model.

                        Thanks Roy, looking at Resicast's website it does look like a very nice conversion. Though now they've given me a hankering to do one of their Sheman Crab flail mine clearing tanks.
