M9 ACE - Armored Combat Earthmover

Sabot Publications made some big waves with their first offering, M1A2 SEP Abrams Main Battle Tank In Detail. M9 ACE is a great follow-up on another modern U.S. armor subject now available in kit form from Takom.

This neat little combat bulldozer has been in service from 1986 and saw it's first action during Desert Storm in 1991. It saw a lot of use during the Iraq War and in Afghanistan.
A short introduction section includes a textual description of the vehicle and it's mission and and excerpt from the technical manual with the location and description of major exterior components.
The succeeding chapters are more visually oriented.
The M9 ACE in Action chapter is mainly made up of pictures from the vehicle in actual field use, both internationally and domestically. It has some nice examples of different paint schemes used, including a shot of an M9 in MERDC camo!
