I use a FW Executioner turret on my new Russ (I got it used and thought it was an old Russ).

It doesn't exactly fit, but I screwed around with its mounting mechanism it with greenstuff for about 20 minutes and it fits/rotates perfectly. It's not hard, really, so I say go for it.

Destroyer may have been updated for the new Russ because you can't get it in the Demolisher kit, but I'm not sure on that. Shoot FW an email?

You will need this so the turret ring will fit the new russ has a smaller turret ring

The FW didn't fit that well with the old Russ so be prepared to add plenty of plasticard & GS

I dont think it fits the new ones as they use a slightly different chassis.

so i don't see how the turret ring would need to be changed. dose anyone know if the hull construction is different, more specifically the lines on the inside of the track sets. i apologise for any confussion
