AMX-30 Roland
1:100 design of the Franco-German Anti-aircraft missile system Roland on AMX-30 chassis, suitable for resin and fdm printing
The AMX-30 entered production in 1966, for the French Army, with a multi-fuelled Hispano-Suiza Hispano-Suiza’s HS-110 diesel engine generating 720hp. It quickly developed into a family of variants. One of these was the AMX-30R Roland surface-to-air missile system. The launcher has an autoloading system feeding from an eight missile reserve
The Roland SAM system was designed to engage enemy air targets flying at speeds of up to Mach 1.3 at altitudes between 20 meters and 5,500 meters with a minimum effective range of 500 meters and a maximum of 6,300 meters. The system can operate in optical or radar mode and can switch between these modes during an engagement. A pulse-doppler search radar with a range of 15–18 km detects the target which can then be tracked either by the tracking radar or an optical tracker. The optical channel would normally be employed only in daylight against very low-level targets or in a heavy jamming environment.
This is a 1:100 scale model of this vehicle in versions suitable for resin or fdm printing. The former comes in two parts, the hull and the turret; the latter separates the hull into a core hull and the track assemblies. A hollow version is also included to save resin if so desired.
The product is offered for personal, non-commercial use. Derivative designs for personal use may be generated, but neither the original nor derivatives may be shared with others. Attribution of the design is requested should printed models be exhibited or otherwise shared. Models printed from this design or derivatives may not be sold commercially.
