Hi all,
I'm currently building the M3A3 Bradley for the 500+ campaign and I'd like to know which colors would be correct for the Duke antennas and the GPS antenna.
Meng does not give any indication for the Duke antennas and gives white for the GPS.
I mainly use Tamiya acrylics.

TIA
Olivier

The top of the FBCB2 antenna (box on top of the gunner's sight) is white. It is actually semi-transparent white. The Duke antennas I have seen have always been sand in color.

Thanks Gino.
Concerning the Duke antenna,the pictures I have show a slightly different color than the vehicle one. Is it true or a trick of the light condition?

It could be a slightly different color, or the vehicle color is older and has faded a bit.

Thanks again.
BTW are the antennas bases (the spring ones) black or green?

Olivier

The base unit itself is green w/a black spring part.

Olivier,
The vehicle should be CARC Tan while the antennas are a darker sand color.

There are a couple of decals on the antenna, that I will check on and update this post. One for sure is the "Front" decal which lets the crew know how the antenna should be installed.

John

Thanks for your answers Gino and John. The "FRONT" decals are present on the decal sheet provided by Meng.
