Interesting list. Love all of the modern warships - including France and Canada. CVN DeGaulle! Especially like the Israeli D9 and the Booker!

I just got and email with this list, yesterday. Though I had hope for other things, I have to admit that there is quite a bit I will probably purchase over the next year. The M10 Booker is something I had been hoping for and I can guarantee there will a minimum of one company in my the coming months.. Other interest are as follows.

T-80BVM
T-90M
BMD-4M Sinits
Tiger I, mid variant
M1A2 SEP v3 U.S

Possible purchases
M60TM Turkey
Leopard 1A5 Germany

With that being said I am confused about GHQ producing the M60TM model. Though I have not done any extensive research, Not sure how much differences there are from the M60T/Sabra. All in all, great list of future pieces.. Thanks again GHQ for a great product.
Quantity has a Quality all its own.

Many great items on the list and others that are quite interesting. This list might put a dent my budget.

Wow! One of the most exciting naval releases I can recall. Kudos to GHQ for listening to and acting on customer suggestions - well done!

The SCYLLA/CHARYBDIS model will likely represent these two ships which shipped a temporary armament of 8 x 4.5" QF DP guns upon completion due to a shortage of the intended 5.25" mounts. Of note, HMS SCYLLA was the RN flagship during the Normandy landings, and HMS CHARYBDIS escorted USS WASP for several months in 1942 while operating in the Mediterranean.

I am very pleased to see the French ships as they often operate together with UK and US ships. The CVN CHARLES DE GAULLE, DG AQUITAINE, FG LAFAYETTE and AO DURANCE will make a nice task group. Hopefully we will see the Horizon class destroyers at some point.

And of course, living in Canada, I am very excited to see the Halifax-class frigate at last! I have wanted these for a long time and cant wait to have them. I am wondering if the model will depict them as built or as modified during the rebuilds.

The Implacable-class carriers will also be nice to have for my BPF so will get two of those, as well as all of the above.

Look, I'll admit - this list is... okay... nothing but tanks is a bit of a blergh - and having the Jupiter KW2 of all things, no one even uses that???

Would've preferred a few more things like artillery, or MLRS or other harder to find gear - would have REALLY loved to have seen some new infantry, particularly some infantry that could've been used for Israelis or South Africans in the 1980's, but I'm not the designer nor do I have the talent to do it so I'm at their will.

I'll get the M10's to replace my home-brewed models and probably get a pack or two of each of the modern tanks.

6/10 this series, not bad, but nothing too popping for me - I'll take it though! :lol:

M10 and D9. Maybe by the time they are issued, I'll be ready to start a new battalion of the more modern M1s.

Where is the new US Marine ACV and Challenger 3? Or command version of Boxer, which is being adopted by several European armies in addition to the German? I know there is a variety of interests to meet, but some items chosen just seem too obscure.

Maybe a company of M10s for Stryker battalion I'm reluctantly forming. Frankly, if I can get my youngest back on the resin printer, I'll have a couple M8 battalions rather than M10s. The Chieftain has a good presentation on M8 on Youtube. Maybe one with 105mm and another with 120mm. And how about armored cavalry squadron equipped with M8 and XM800...

and it sucks for me the most as apart from using modern American and UK infantry sets, alot of Modern Canadian Heavy Weapon options is missing, like the Carl Gustav, the Javlien and Blowpipe MANPADS, their Sniper rifles, the Tripod mounted TOW, and their belt fed Grenade Launcher.

This is the third year that GHQ has decided to focus on a particular country for modern naval. First Taiwan, then Australia and now France and, functionally, Canada. Nice to see them making progress and adding two extra submarines. Hopefully, next year we will see ships from the Indian navy as well as a few more ships from the navies GHQ supports.

The addition of more modern Ukrainian/Russian tanks is welcome as is the D9.

Well you can not please everyone and I am one. I do Cold War Microarmor and WW1 Naval (I know strange combo). With this list there are no true Cold War microarmor, there are two fringe in Leopard 1V and M-41D but that is it. So totally disappointed in that. For WW1 naval there is one DD the Laforey which is greatly welcomed as the earlier release of a Loforey only covered 6 ships in the class. With only 1 item on this whole list I guess it will be a catch up year.

I am not really totally thrilled by this year's list.

While it does have some good modern picks- the M10, the D9- it has a lot of "let's make a tiny variation to a common model" releases. Another T90, 2 more M1s etc.

I get that it must be much easier to do these than to produce entirely new models. But still, I wish a few more "TO&E fillers" were released instead- models that would fill gaps in existing lineups. France's Serval, or the USMC ACV? We have several Iranian tanks already, why not fill out the TO@E with a few Iranian APC's? What they did to the BTR-50 would make a pretty cool mini and it could pair well with the Iranian models already out.

If we're going to have variants, why not a few of the Boxer's variants? Or shelters for trucks?

Still, some very good choices.

The M54/M800 series 5ton trucks would be nice, ESPECIALLY if the canvas was removeable. Then, we could put stuff in the truck bed if needed, like tank and pump units, shelters, box vans, etc. GOERS? They did serve throughout the late '60s and the '70s. M37 3/4ton trucks permeated units from the '50s to the '70s. These are big holes, Guys. In the late '70s, my armor battalion had 6 M813 5ton trucks with 2 tank and pump units installed, each towing a trailer with A tank and pump unit, essential for refueling our fleet. It also had 5M520 cargo GOERS and 4 M553 fuel service GOERS, as as a GOER wrecker. The cargo and fuel service versions would be nice.

I'll leave you alone to see what you can do.

Good to see some WWII items I am interested in. Here is what looks good to me at least that is on the list.

Russian

T-38
T-40
JS-1 - I was going to create some of these with the KV-85 turrets and JS-2 earlier hulls but now I don't have to.
T-26 Early Version

German

Kfz 1
Kfz 4
Tiger I Mid Production.

These are all ones that I will definitely buy and glad to see them. I did not expect to see a whole lot of love on the WWII side but here it is. Thanks GHQ!

I would love to see the Ferdinand for the Germans at some point. GHQ makes the Elephant of which I have a number but the Ferdinand would be a sweet addition to the line.
