    I sent that one to my childhood friend. Apparently he voided the warranty.

    Mr Fletcher has done a Tank Chat on the Bison.
    Only six minutes or so, which is odd because we all know they deserve a twenty episode series with at least an hour per episode, but I'll take what we're given:
    I couldn't find the trapdoor underneath on Bovington's replica-ish example... Which made me go 'hmmmmm'.

    Had a similar thought!

    Think it's an ATZ-ish thing, though have basically zero knowledge of modern Russki B vehicles.
