There were inflatable tanks, missiles and howitzers on display (and for sale/rentals) at the Calgary gun show a few years back. They would sure free up a lot of time and cash down the road vs the real stuff.

I have one of these... not the best quality IMO.

But they do pack down better than the real thing.

They look more like a 105 tank round.
