Centurion Tow-er.
1/35 Scale
 
In the early years of Centurion service, the existing recovery vehicles weren’t up to the task. An interim measure was for various Centurion MK 1,2, & 3 hulls to be converted into Tow-ers pending the introduction of the purpose build Centurion ARV.
The turret was removed but the traverse gear was retained to drive a capstan drum fitted to the turret ring. The drum was purely there to provide stowage for the 300 ft 20-ton cable and not as a winch.
A hinged wishbone towing link and a fixed strong point anchor were fitted to the rear hull.

Turret ring adaptor plate is included so this can be built on any of the AFV Club Centurion kits.
