Morning all, I have the MK Models conversion set for the Hobbyboss M706 to make the Air Force XM706E2 version and was wondering about the interior color, since it is open topped. Did they leave it the same or darken it? Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Wayne

According to David Doyle, the XM706E2 interior was always painted sea foam green.
I guess the inner surfaces of hatches and doors were the exterior color.

Ok, appreciate it Frenchy. I know there wasn't much worry about air attack, but wanted to be sure. Thanks, Wayne

A very quick and very simple Google search for images of an XM706E2 show a sea foam green interior.
