Hey guys, does anyone have any good pics of the Bradley M2 in Nato camo? I am looking to paint mine in the Nato camo but cannot find a decent refernce pic. I am looking for the three or four tone camo scheme, not just the black on green one. Thanks in advance.

Regards from the Swamp

I've just stuck up 3 pics of camo.bradleys in my gallery space, if they are any use,let me know. If you also need any detail pics of Brads, PM me, ive been building up quite a collection in last few months with a view to doing an M3a2 update at some point in the future....Jim

Jim,

these pictures are tagged M2A3... Don't they need to be A2? As far as I know the A3 is not yet in production, or am I incorrect?

But anyway, great pictures ..... :-)

Incorrect, both the 1st Cav and 4th Mech have the M2A3 and M3A3 Bradleys. I also believe that the M7 BFIST is based off of the M3A3 CFV. I know the M6 Linebacker is based off of the M3A2ODS CFV.

Both my M3 and M3A1 are painted in the standard NATO 3-color. Even photos I took of an M3A1 during REFORGER (Jan) 90 was in the standard NATO 3-color. Been a while, probably since SC3 (Scout Commander Certification Course) in the late 80s that I last saw a Brad in something other than NATO 3-color or desert tan.
