OK, I appeal to the infinite knowledge of the Armorama crew!

I'm working on a M1151 as used by the Afghan Border Police, and I was wondering if anyone knows what type of commo they use in their vehicles. I'm reasonably sure they don't have BFTs, but what type of radios? SINCGARS? Old PRC-77s? Maybe some ancient Soviet bloc stuff?

Thanks,

Chris

I don't know about the M1151, but the Afghan Police and Army attached to the Australians are using the AN/PRC 77 sets.
