When the Gulf war started, the French army did not have any mineclearing tanks. In emergency, the AMX30B got a former East German KMT5 system. A remote control device was adapted to prevent the driver from being inside during the breaching operations. A total of 6 tanks were modified and issued to the 6th foreign legion engineer regiment. During the attack of the division Daguet, two groups of three tanks were organized to support the battalion task forces.

GIAT AMX-30 EBD

Designed as a main battle tank for the French Army the AMX-30 prototype was completed in 1961 and the type entered full-scale production in 1966.

  • Molded resin construction with no assembly required.

Why Resin?
It's very expensive to produce die-casting molds, and manufacturers must sell a large number of models from each mold in order to recoup development costs. Some subjects are so obscure that it's difficult to sell large quantities of them. Resin-casting is a much simpler and less expensive process, and manufacturers can use it to make limited runs of models that can't be cost effectively manufactured in diecast metal. With resin-cast models, collectors can add fascinating and unusual subjects to their collections without the time and difficulty of assembling and painting a model kit.
