Khurasan's 15mm 1973 Israeli infantry

Postby Khurasanminiatures » Thu Dec 05, 2013 8:41 pm

Hello, we've released the first codes for our Yom Kippur War Israeli forces, the infantry--

Image

The first set has seven men armed with the FN FAL.

Image

The second set has five men with Uzis.

Image

Third set has models for section command and weapons, which also has the weapons section elements in it -- shown above from left to right are the FN MAG for the platoon's weapons section, one of the two poses of section-level FN FAL (Heavy Barrel) with rifle grenades attached, two command poses with Uzis, a radio operator, a Blindicid (bazooka) team (weapons section), a light mortarman with the two inch mortar (weapons section), and the second pose of section-level rifle grenadier. The grenades were added to the heavy barrel FN FAL poses because they were so often used in the war, and otherwise it's very hard to tell the heavy barrel FN MAG (which served as a sort of proto-SAW) apart from the normal rifle.

Image

Finally, at company level there would be a weapons platoon, made up of two HMGs and two medium mortars. The HMG was supposed to be the .50 M2, but many .30 machine guns are seen on tripods in images of the war, so we had the models made so that either a .50 or .30 insert may be used, and both inserts are provided.

Mike Broadbent sculpted them and Hallmark Painting did the brushwork. They are available now, at the link below, and the armour should follow shortly.

Wonderful figures. BattleFront could learn a thing or two from you.
When I die I want the Arsenal players to lower me into my grave so they can let me down one last time.
