Since every other person is crying about the slat armor I've decided to make an in training Stryker, the only problem is that I wanted to do the MILES equipped version for combat training, but I can't seem to find many pics/info on them. I know the main add-ons like the indicator light on the rear and the MILES 50 cal. What else is changed, added?
Here are some pics I was able to find.



Thanks MiKe

There will be sensor strips as well as an electronic box and some wires in presumably one of the stowage bins. I am not sure, but wait a sec and I guarantee that Burik will weigh in and give you more than you need.

Also, to help you out on the lights: to get you started Accurate Armour just release a modification for amber lenses. Check out the release in the news section.

Mike, I have everything you need. I am doing the same thing right now. I can share some more photos with you PM, but for the thread I will add a few later when I am home for everybody to see. I feel the MILES set-up makes for an interesting build. There are the belts, but other stuff too like the wires, metal plates, antennas, ...

As well, some of my NTC photos will be seen in my Military Modelling article coming out in issue 37-8.

This should give a good idea. Note the wires leading from the amber light to a box in the stowage rack. Wires come out from the belts, and the belts of course have the nodes.

Last one.
