Cougar Reconnaissance AFV (Canada)
$5.50
The Cougar was used for training in Canada as a reconnaissance vehicle and was fitted with the turret of the British Scorpion. During the 1980s and 1990s, it was used by armoured units as a fire support vehicle, for those units not equipped with the Leopard tank. Designs at 1:100 suitable for resin and fdm printing are included, with a separate turret.
The Cougar was developed during the 1970s as part of a family of the AVGP wheeled armoured vehicles for the Canadian Army. It was initially designed to serve as a tank trainer for armoured regiments that were not equipped with the Leopard C1. However, operational realities of the 1990s would see it deployed on active missions. 256 Cougars were built, with a three-man crew and using the capable Scorpion turret.
The model is a well detailed design, provided in two versions, one for resin printing, which is integrated with its wheels. Variants in both hollow and solid versions are provided to suit personal preferences. A second solid hull is provided without wheels for printing on fdm systems, with the wheels provided as a separate file. In both cases the turret is provided as a separate solid item.
Files updated to correct an error on the rear axles in the fdm version; corrected design posted.
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.
VJM787
I offer a range of models in 1:56 and 1:100 scale (originally designed in 1:76 scale, but modified for wargaming use), including tanks, lorries and artillery. I have already made some available for free in the thingiverse web site, in case these are of interest (search for user VJM787). Some models will have a small charge to cover development costs and to permit future additions. My main interest is in the modern era, with particular interest in British equipment, but not restricted to this. I hope to offer some rarer WW2 vehicles as well as time permits.
