1/35 Academy M1025 Humvee Armored Carrier
Collection of My Humvee still in progress. Right now I would like to show my latest model of humvee M1025 with .50 Cal Machinegun. The Most light armor vehicle that US builed and used in any conflict that they involved in.
The HMMWV was introduced into service in 1985 and has seen more than 150,000 vehicles of all variants produced for the US Armed Forces as well as over 30 other countries with newer versions also being developed. The HMMWV is built on a box frame of high-grade alloy steel with an aluminium body for light weight and corrosion protection. It is powered by a General Motors 6.2 litre V-8 air-cooled diesel engine driving through a 3 speed automatic gear box. It features a double A arm independent suspension front and rear with coil springs and hydraulic double action shock absorbers which make for the good manoeuvrability and off road handling. The four wheel disc brakes are mounted inboard to protect them from debris and the low centre of gravity due to the wide wheelbase also adds to the excellent cross country mobility.
