The color shade looks very light. czech ones are more yellow. I think the color is the same than deutsh ones (the lighter color on their camouflage pattern)

I think that isaf patch on the side is identical to german, so one from the Revell kit can be used. The only problem will be norwegian flags and number plates.

Why does the CROWS II mount look empty in many of the photos?

You will need to scratch the cargo compartment as it is not the same on the German Dingo depicted by Revell.
But the base is the Revell kit, I don't another one so far.
You'll probably also need to create the controls for the CROW.

AFAIK, many of the pics have been taken at the very beginning of the Dingos deployement in Afghanistan in November 2010. That would explain why the MG's are missing in the pics...

In the picture below, the RWS is not fitted to this Dingo :

Nice Dingo, Fabrizio. Only thing is that Nor SF did not use the Iveco LMV in 2008. OP Karez was an operation conducted by Telemark Batallion which is regular infantry.

2 of the photos seem to show Dingos bogged-in. I guess it's not as "go anywhere" as its Unimog parent .............

Erik, thank about this information about Nor SF. If Nor SF didn't use Iveco LMV, did they use Dingo in Afghanistan?

No they did not use the Dingo. Initially they used MB290 guntrucks and Unimog "motherships" and later when training/supporting the Afghan CRU I think they switched to armoured (bullet proof) Landcruisers and other low wiz vehicles. They might have operated a couple of Ivecos at this time as well. "The problem" is that they are very good at keeping their mouth shut, so precise info is hard to get.

Sure, I will give you an answer if I can and have the knowledge. Unfortunatly I don't have much time for research these days.
