On the ground clearance issue, the APC has adjustable Hydro-Pneumatic suspention, and can raise itself up by an additional 30cm (from the standard 22cm).
According to the Technical Manual.

This would be perfect for the new/soon to be released Aliens vs Predator miniatures game in 1/48th scale I think.

Do you have any photos of it next to a model, maybe a 28mm one please

This model is enhanced to 1/35 but the original art work/plans are made for a 1/48th scale. I made it larger so as to add the details, but it is also possible at 1/48th scale.

Thanks for the info. The way I made the suspension system in this model, it could be adjusted to be raised or lowered. Thanks for looking in.

Thanks for the response, I'll have to give one a try.
