Hi Guys
I just got a Revell BMP-2 in the mail yesterday. It has markings for various versions. I had planned to turn it into an Indian BMP-2 (Sarath), however, I can't find any good reference photos for Indian markings. (I found some good pics of Saraths, but they were usually taken from the front of the tank, so I couldn't see what's on the side or the back).
I know finding Indian decals is virtually impossible, so I was just going to paint them on. Any idea where I can get some good reference photos?
Thanks

This may not be too much help to you. If you scroll down the middle of this forum thread, you will see some recent pictures of a Sarath (which is highly camouflaged!!)

Thanks Paul. that's one of the photos I saw last night. You would think that with a billion people and as a regional power, Indian armor might be a little more popular than, say, the ubiquitous German tanks from 60 years ago!
