Modern armour is poorly served by books compared with Second World War subjects, and that is exactly the gap Abrams Squad fills. The magazine tracks current tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, new kits and new upgrade packages far faster than a printed monograph can, and its build reports concentrate on what actually distinguishes a contemporary vehicle: bolt-on armour, slat cages, aerials, stowed kit and the gritty anti-slip surfaces that sit over everything.
Modern subjects shift the work away from broken camouflage patterns and towards surface texture and loadout. Vehicles to build sit in military vehicle model kits, with the widest choice of current types in 1:35 military vehicle kits, the scale where anti-slip texture and stowage can be modelled properly. Tanker Magazine covers closely related ground.
