Drawings and diagrams



Open Source Project

We are going to make available a cross-section of armour and aircraft drawings. These are planned as a starting point for an open source project where interested parties can request a vector version of drawings to alter as needed and then update the master here. PDF versions will be available for those wishing to download the current version. We will also be posting datum schematics for download which will alow people who have access to vehicles to document measurements and feed them back into the project.


Existing Sets
We have a complete set of 1:16 Panther drawings which are now available on the site. These were constructed from actual measurements on different vehicles in different countries, and cover all the main Panther variants - visit the Panther section on the site.


Coming Sets
We have sets of  T34, Sherman, Mustang, Spitfire all in 1:16 scale. As soon as we have sorted and uploaded they will appear for download.


Single subjects

From time to time an interesting subject presents itself for new drawings to be generated. These are constructed using CorelDraw X5 in 2D and drawn as accurately as possible. Where possible given reference measurements are used, or measurements taken from the subject itself. Scales are always as large as possible, normally between 1:1 and 1:10.

Diagrams are are provided as clarification for certain processess or routing of electrical or other reticulation. These are for the most part are stylized and are not to be taken as scale accurate or showing true layouts or exact locations.

In some instances photos of the actual items will be included for further reference.


As always any new referenced information for improvements will be gratefully received.
