About the MH-53M Pave Low:
One of the largest heavy-lift helicopters ever produced, use of the Pave Low stretches all the way back to the Vietnam War. Nicknamed the “Super Jolly Green Giant”, this massive helicopter was utilitarian in nature, fulfilling several roles including troop transport, air support, and special operations. Technologically advanced with the latest instruments for its day, the Pave Low helped guide other aircraft such as Apache helicopters through rough terrain to their targets. Before retirement in 2008, the Pave Low flew several combat and spec ops missions in both Iraq and Afghanistan with the United States Air Force.

About the Ju87 G-2 Stuka – WWII Ground-Attack Aircraft:
A feature in the tank war of the Eastern Front, the Ju87 G-2 Stuka found a new role as a “tank buster” weapon against the masses of Soviet armor. Before 1943, the Stuka played a crucial role as a dive bomber during the German blitzkrieg. Under the advice of seasoned Stuka pilots, the G-2 variant was armed with two 37mm FlaK 18 guns with tungsten carbide armor-piercing rounds as a temporary solution until more antitank vehicles could be constructed. Deployed at the battle of Kursk, the Stuka helped support German armor by destroying hundreds of Soviet tanks and armored vehicles.

About the M1A2 Abrams:
The M1 Abrams is the current main battle tank (MBT) deployed by the United States Army, United States Marine Corps and several allied nations around the world. It is named after General Creighton Abrams, former Chief of Staff of the US Army. Abrams was the commander of operations during the Vietnam War and also served in Patton’s Third Army during World War II.
The origins of the M1 date back to a joint US-West German tank program during the 1960s. While this project was eventually canceled, the technology developed was used in the German Leopard II and the American M1 Abrams MBTs. The M1 Abrams introduced many innovative features such as an aircraft turbine powerpack, composite “Chobham” armor, and ammunition stowage separated from the crew compartment.
When the Abrams’ original 105mm rifled main gun barrel was replaced with the 120mm smoothbore gun developed for the Leopard II, the tank was re-designated the M1A1. A program to further improve the Abrams was introduced in 1992 and the designation was changed to M1A2.
The Abrams was combat-tested during Operation Desert Storm, outperforming the Russian T-72s of the Iraqi Army. Improvements continue to be made to the Abrams to keep up with technological advances and changing battlefield conditions.

About the Modern US Tanker
Upgrade your M1A2 Abrams with one (or three) crew members ready for armored combat! The Modern US Tanker has artwork inspired by the OCP camouflage pattern, tanker boots, and balaclava with goggles suited for a wide range of combat environments.
This crudely-applied camouflage pattern was seen during the Rhodesian Bush War on the NATO (FAL) battle rifle. Often referred to as “baby poo” camo by collectors, it was hand painted in the field with everyday materials, resulting in a wide range of styles.
The new Brickmania Perfect Caliber™ project takes BrickArms® prototypes and enhances them by printing fine details on the weapons, adding realism and excitement to your creations. You’ll find everything from famous historical guns up to advanced modern rifles and more.

Black Combat Boots
Developed in the 1950s, black combat boots were a common sight at the height of the Cold War. These boots were widely deployed until the end of the Vietnam War. During the war period, they were phased out in favor of the new jungle boot, better suited to the terrain of Southeast Asia.
Set up your soldiers for victory with this high-quality sticker pack from Brickmania! The Black Jungle Boots Sticker Pack features an authentic design for your Cold War minifigures.
