Concord Publications have just announced a new book which will be very welcomed by Modern British armor modelers:
7520 - British Armoured Battle Group is the latest in the company's 'Mini-Color Series'. The book is written by Tim Matzold, with color plates by Daniel Nowak. The book follows the usual Concord format, consisting of 53 pages,153 color photos, 4 color plates and 2 1/35th scale plans. The ISBN is 962-361-135-8.

The unit used for this photo-study is 1st (UK) Armoured Division based in Germany. It covers the organization of typical and specific BGs, with a high degree of detail on the various sub-units incorporated into the formation. However, the real content is in the images. A variety of vehicles are given coverage:

Scimitar, Spartan, Sultan, Samaritan, Striker, Stormer, JCB tractor, Unipower tank bridge transporter, CET, Terrier, Chieftan AVRE, Chieftan AVLB, Challenger ARRV, Titan, Trojan, FV432, Warrior (including the new BGSV), AS90, and Challenger 2.

While I don't have any interest in modern equipment based on the Concord books I have I would advise anybody interested in these types of vehicles give this book a look. While the Concord books aren't great at seeing really close up details of vehicles they are great sources of inspiration to show the vehicles in diorama settings.
