Yes, the compact footprint and realistic details make it a good candidate for small dioramas depicting modern battlefield or support scenes.

Will aftermarket detail sets fit this kit?

Aftermarket resin or photo-etched sets for similar 1/35 modern vehicles are often adaptable; check compatibility before purchasing to ensure proper fit.

Any tips for painting the launcher?

Use a fine brush or airbrush for the launcher assembly, masking where needed, and apply thin coats to preserve fine detail before adding washes for depth.
