As for the interior:

Try Eduards' PHOTO-ETCHED DETAIL kit, number 35390

Its an ACAV interior for a Tamiya M113 but i'm sure it can be kit bashed to work on anything.

It can be picked up for $16 here:
http://www.hometown-hobbies.com/inc/pdetail?v=1&pid=20760

and cross referanced on Eduras site here:
http://www.eduard.cz/products/card.php?id_product=1888&name=m-113&catalogue_nb=&type=&pgroup=&scale=&product_month=&product_year=&page_start=0

If you click on the instruction sheet link you can download the instructions and see exactly what the kit consists of.

here. You may be intrested in this. The auction will close before you get this, but it will give you an idea at least.

I think you mean M901 not M109 (that is a 155mm howitzer). No, Academy make an M981 FIST-V. Based on the same vehicle and they look alike, except for the two external fuel cells and the lack of TOW missile ports on the hammerhead.

Sorry the kit numbers are#276 M113A1 And the M901 kit is oop But you can use kit #263 LAV-25 for your tow launcher it will fit right in the cupola hole in the M113A1

Great Modeling

I used 2 Italeri kits M133A1 and the M901 you get alot of spare parts that way but it works out great. Happy Modeling


Good luck, Stephen

I built up one of the Italie kits the outside is fair but the interds are empty. So if you to do the inside you will need ether to buld one up from scrace or get one of the after market kits.One thing the MG mount is empty and there is no M-60 or such to mount so that also needs to fixed.For some real good interor photoes check out Maj rob motor pool on Armorama.com
