Hi guys! Need a little bit of help. I want to do a diorama centered around this figure set from Airborne Miniatures.



I am having a hard time trying to find out what vehicles the US Navy SEALS are using in Afghanistan or Iraq in the last few years. I was thinking the 4x4 Cougar MRAP but I don't know if that's correct. RG-31 maybe? Don't know.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Mike

Actually, the Number One SEAL transport vehicle would be a MH-47E as most SEALs were deployed via air for Direct Action missions, not via ground.

If you want a ground vehicle, the Number One vehicle would be the M-ATV because the M-ATV has the MRAP protection with the speed and mobility of a 4X4 in a much smaller size. The M-ATV was the preferred tactical assault vehicle in the final days of the wars due to its small size and adequate armor protection.

I believe the vehicles that SEAL's are using are the RG-31 SOCOM, M-ATV SOCOM, M1114/M1151 based Ground Mobility Vehicle (GMV), various versions of polaris atv's and side by sides.

If you have some scratch build skills, the seals use/ used also a GMV.


Or maby Legend Productions wil release this one maby?! Hopefully

Thanks for the help guys! I have a few different ideas now. In fact one of them is to use my Meng M2A3 Bradley. I read a story somewhere about SF guys gets picked up in urban areas by Bradleys for the return ride to the base.

Ciro - would you still like me to post photos? My figures arrived in the mail on Friday. They look fantastic. Hope my painting does them justice.

Thanks again
Mike

Oh yes....if you can post them here it would be great!!Just to see if the casting quality has improved/changed from the last review..

Thank you

Ciro
