What colour were Sryian tanks in the six day war? Is the colour on the panzer 4 & Stug III at lantern in Israel original? As there are both a green version & a sand version in the Stug III.
Also if the green is correct / is it in the Vallejo/ AK / mig range?

The Panzer IV's were painted in dark OD green, the Stugs in beige. The ones displayed in Latrun are painted (more or less) in their original color. You might find this article helpful: https://wwiiafterwwii.wordpress.com/2016/09/04/panzers-in-the-golan-heights/
