M-42 Duster?

Post by lsc1002 » Fri Oct 20, 2006 8:35 am

Since I got my hands on my first M48 I have gone XD Vietnam crazy and I am doing a large 101st ABN project. I was going to turn my m41 into a ARVN tank but am think of turning into a US M42 to give me another US vehicle. I am pretty sure that it was used in VN but not sure how extensively. any info or thoughts?

dusters used quite a bit in vietnam, usually against ground targets. Very effective. Good project.
