I am looking for ANY size Stryker model. It was developed and put into action around 2002. I rode in one for a year in Iraq and I am trying to find someone who makes it. Please help

You can convert a LAV-25 Piranha 1/35 scale Revell from Germany or LAV 25 TUA 1/35 scale from Italeri. You will have to use a lot of improvision. The front of the hull (glacious and nose plates) will have to be reshaped (LAV-25 is rounded while Stryker is flat pointed). The height of a Stryker is taller than a LAV and you will have to improvise there as well. The Stryker is also longer but at 1/35 scale it does not make a big difference once displayed. I have made both, but the Italeri is better for this because it is softer plastic.

BTW, the 3rd Brigade of 2IF have not been in Iraq for a year, how did you ride in one for a year? I think the fantasy should be kept where it belongs, in your head and not to be shared. Especially in memory of the real dead.

There are few Stryker models available:
M1126 in 1:72 scale by Trumpeteer
M1126 in 1:35 scale by Trumpeteer

Also in 1:35 by AFV Club(best quality):
M1126
M1130(can be built in 2 versions: CV or CV TACP)
M1128 - coming soon

If you in US I can help you get any of them.
