CVRT Scimitar BBK378M
CVRT Scimitar BBK378M POA . A very nice example of a CVRT Scimitar with great tracks and a dummy gun. We also have repro smoke dischargers if it’s of interest to a US customer. It has the more modern underbody Armour sights and a host of other features I don’t recognise. But more importantly it’s diesel and drives great.

The FV107 Scimitar is an armoured tracked military reconnaissance vehicle (sometimes classed as a light tank) used by the British Army. It was manufactured by Alvis in Coventry. It is very similar to the FV101 Scorpion, but mounts a high-velocity 30 mm L21 RARDEN cannon instead of a 76 mm gun. It was issued to Royal Armoured Corps armoured regiments in the reconnaissance role. Each regiment originally had a close reconnaissance squadron of five troops, each containing eight FV107 Scimitars. Each Main Battle Tank Regiment also employed eight Scimitars in the close reconnaissance role.
