British Post War, Saladin Mk.I Armored Car.

 Arsenal-M 226200101, Minitanks 237. Plastic 1/87 Scale Unassembled Unfinished Kit.

The FV601 Saladin is a six-wheeled armored car. Saladins were noted for their excellent performance in desert conditions, and found favor with a number of Middle Eastern armies accordingly. They were armed with a 76 mm low-pressure rifled gun with a crew of three.

The vehicle was accepted into service in 1958. Production began afterward and it stopped only in 1972. For the British Army, all deliveries were done in 1960, but it was resumed for export, quite successfully: 20 countries purchased the new 6x6 armored car. It is still in service in some and saw action in at least six conflicts.
