Warrior Mechanized Combat Vehicle was developed in mid-1970?s by
GKN Defense for the British Army. In 1978 a parallel evaluation
of the American M2 Bradley IFV took place. The following year
full development of the Warrior started parallel with continued
study of the M2 Bradley. Production of Warrior began in January
1986. The hull of Warrior is of all-welded aluminum construction,
and the turret of Warrior has vertical sides with long barrel
30mm RARDEN cannon with 7.62mm L94A1 Chain Gun mounted in
external mantlet. For operations in the Middle East and Bosnia,
the Warrior was fitted with additional armor protection.

detailed parts will put this kit on modelers want list. Comes
with accurately reproduced hull and turret, engine deck, fully
assembled rubberized track, and precise suspension system. Mark
