[req] Need Some Help With References

Jaeger

<div class="IPBDescription">Blues/drawings/profiles of a Type 74 MBT</div> Just wondering if anyone knows where I can snag some ref pictures for a Type 74 MBT. It's a tank used by the Japanese Self Defense Force, and one of it's prominent features is a large searchlight mounted to the left of the main gun. Google hasn't been forthcoming, and neither has the reference sites I usually go to in a situation like this.

Anybody have anything to help me with? <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

would it be anything close to the T-72 that is in the Desert Combat mod for Battlefield 1942? i doesnt have a searchlight but if its the same series, it could be close to the same thing.

i can get a screeny of that if you would like.

Thanks, but nah. The T-72 and Type 74 are two completely different tanks. They have superficial similarities in turret shape and track depth, but that's where the comparisons end.

I could build the Type 74 I want using the T-72 as a base, but it wouldn't be accurate.

the T- models are russian like the T-80
