A Stalwart of movies now too - the sold-off BAOR kit got re-used in loads of 90s movies.

I was also overjoyed to spot my custom Night Attack Helicopter in Codename Beaver, I never noticed it until Ironblood did the colouring.

They are loads of artist-created customs possibilities in BAF
Yeah I love Soviet kit. Also another imaginative Geoff Campion masterstroke in Bloodhound, especially given his advanced years in the 80s. Your Haken-helo is better than the one in Codename Beaver Eisenblut, though eerily similar. Would also love a version of the old-school Hind from early Bloodhound too.

No, pure coincidence! A similar chopper also appeared at the end of Death Castle.

Codename Beaver also contained a John Cooper created Shad hydrofoil and submarine.
