Hi!!!

I just got the Revell kit of the Unimog U1300L. It's the second copy I own of it. I really wanted to build it in desert camo scheme, but I'm not sure if any of te ones deployed in Afghanistan used that scheme. The only reference I could get is this picture (second one), but I don't really know what colour the canvas cover should be. It seems as if the truck was simply painted over the nato scheme, so my guess is the canvas should also follow the desert scheme. Any hel is welcomed. Cheers!

Hello,
Tankograd book GECON ISAF Wüstentarnung contains two photos of an Unimog painted in RAL 8031 Sandbraun and RAL 1039 Sandbeige. Looks like the pattern doesn`t match the NATOflage pattern. Taske also in consideration that most Unimogs have the MSA add-on armor.
