Interesting to see that from time to time overseas manufacturers do cover South African subjects - an HO SAAF tender by Roco.

Kevin this is HO scale and not 1/72. The model was commissioned by Rosenbauer / MAN when SAAF and the airport company ordered 3 and 4 axle versions. Roco were the firm commissioned to make the the models. A lucky scoop for South African HO scale modellers, you can also get the model in the red livery with Cape Town / Durban and Johannesburg. Depicting the Bush Panthers working at the Airports.
