just a note that I did a google on this rig and found alot of good stuff.
The como on some of the units will be a great switch from plain od or nato 3 color camo.

dear david, i too have run in to alot of stuff. BUT, i need info regarding what the right side panel looks like on the VCC-1 Mk.3. i have one pix of a 3/4 front, left, top shot. from that, i figure the gun(20mm) is the same as (give or take) the one on the wiesel. the issue is the cut-back in the armor on the right side. does it go back further like the K-200/YPR. or does it(panel) stay the same with the turret ring moulding/ flaring into it??? gotta do some fishin. i be in touch, michael. ;-(x

I posted in my site a walkaround of one VCC-1 in UN service in Lebanon. This might help in your research.
Just go to the Real ones and IFVs and scroll down to V

dear olivier, great pix, but it is still a yes and no issue. as i text'd ptruhe & stormfront, it's the point were the sloped cut back angles forward to meet the upper deck. my thoughts are that this section is more like a K-200/YPR/CM-21 than the VCC-1 Mk-1. the ring looks to be almost the same diameter. i have only seen one pic in a less accurate (spec) book (3/4 front, left side,top) you have a fantastic site!! again many thanx, michael.:-)x

There's a reason for that, he didn't post a pic. Sorry to point out the obvious.
