South African Rooikat AFV

     Trumpeter 1/35

The Rooikat is a wheeled armoured fighting vehicle built in South Africa for the South African Army.
It was designed for combat reconnaissance and seek and destroy operations. Its
secondary roles include combat support, anti-armour and anti-guerrilla
operations. The Rooikat is intended for deep penetration missions, so the
wheeled design was needed for speed and to counter sandy desert conditions that
might slow tracked vehicles.
