For sure, I'm not the best at searching pics on the Net...
Can you direct me to pics of Tiran as used during YKW ?
Beside L7/M68 gun and plastic jerrycans on the front mudguards (with the rubber extensions), were the "hammock" and rear turret bin compulsory ?
What other mods ? Radio pots on the turret ? Oil cans upon the exhaust ?
Many pics I found show much later mods (mortar, side turret bin...).
Thanks for your help !

According to the captions, these should fit the bill...







IIRC, the 3 pics above show Tiran 4Sh's...Don't ask me about those below

Check out this page, as far as I remember the first ones I've uploaded (from #512) are from the late '60s, early 70s.
