This is my first topic.

last week I buy the 1/35 Canadain LAV-III from Trumpeter, they came with a white UN scheme, where the Canadian Army used this scheme?

This version with additional armor can not be used for white UN. These LAV III units used without additional armor.

Milosalv is right on the money. The lav-3 in service with the UN during operations in Ethiopia & Eritrea none had the add on armour installed. The Add on armour would have to be for the missions in Afghanistan. Unless you are willing to shave off the add on armour, to make it a version used by UN Canadain vehicles.
