FORD GPA
The Western Slope Division is amphibious now! With the recent acquisition of a Torro 1/16th scale Ford GPA we now have amphibious capabilities. We are still testing it’s performance capabilities, and applying unit markings, but so far we are very pleased with how well it works on land and in water.
BAILEY BRIDGE PROJECT
The Western Slope Division is developing a Bailey Bridge system made from 3d printed parts. It is designed at 1/16th scale , and while it is true to the original overall dimensions, some minor changes were needed to accommodate the scale 3d printing process. Just like the real ones, this bridge system can be deployed in a number of configurations, and it can be disassembled and stored until needed. All the parts can be transported in a 1/16th scale CCKW.
UPDATE: 1-31-2022
The bridge has now been built out to 8 sections. Support piers have also been developed allowing long span bridges.
These pictures are of the prototype being tested. Early engineering tests imply that a long span bridge using this system is capable of holding a 1/16th scale RC tank without any problems.
The bridge is 6 sections long now, and has been set up in Tankland.
