Well, Gino - I look forward to your M109 build, then I'll copy it using also the parts that you sent me long time ago, I'll just add preshading to it :-)))

Have a nice day

 Yup, as Pawel says, there is no interior set for the basic M109.  For the M109A2, there are actually 2 sets. 

For the Italeri M109A2, there were two old set from Trax.  One was a turret interior set and the other a hull interior set.  They still come up on eBay from time to time.  There is also a CMK engine set for it. 

For the AFV Club M109A2, there is the excellent Black Dog interior set.  There is also a Real Model engine set that could be used on it, but it is specifically designed for the AFV Club M109A6 Paladin.

The M109 and M109A2 interiors weren't that different.  The biggest difference was the auto loader.  I plan to backdate an AFV Club M109A2 to an M109 using Italeri M109 parts and a modified Black Dog interior.  There was an AMPS Boresight article last year about someone who did it the same way.  It didn't look too difficult to do.

Hello!

Gino has the exact details, but AFAIK there's only an interior kit for the -A2, but no interior for the A-nothing. Pity, I'd buy one!

Have you seen the 1:72 M109 just released by Revell Germany?

Good luck with your modelling projects and have a nice day

It’s the old Italeri kit reboxed with some extra sprues. I believe there are some interior sets out there for that kit.
