Flames of War: Desert Rats Honey Armoured Troop

The Desert Rats are the only thing standing in the way of Axis conquest of North Africa. Despite suffering repeated defeats at the hands of Rommel’s Afrika Korps; they remain undaunted. Their speedy Crusader and Honey tanks can run circles around their opposition; backed up by the heavier Grant squadrons. Their motorised infantry are equally adept in attack or defence. With support from the Royal Artillery and the Desert Air Force; they are a formidable and versatile force.

The M3 Stuart Light Tank is the first American-made tank supplied to the British Army under the lend-lease programme. One of its intended roles was infantry support. But to the British; infantry tanks are slow and heavily armoured; so the Honey is employed in the same way as the British-built cruisers. Compared with earlier British-designed tanks; it is much less prone to breaking down—so reliable that its drivers call it a ‘Honey’.

Set Includes:

5 x Plastic Honey tanks
1 x Plastic Tank Commander sprue

4 x Unit cards
