I was building / converting this M113 to an IDF C&C vehicle for the ‘Bucket Bonanza’ campaign. I had based the build on a small photo of a C&C vehicle with a bin / bracket where the green is, unfortunately I can’t find the photo now….

Please, I need help as to what bin / bracket / holder would appropriately fit in the green space.



Thanks in advance for any help.

Eric,
You are confusing (2) different IDF 113's. You're thinking of the C2 vehicle as well as the MRV repair vehicle. The fiiter vehicle has the racks in the location that you have highlighted in green. As well as the maintenance repair version. Those 113's are equipment type specific to the unit they are assigned to ie M60, Merkava, M113, Centurion. You better do some more research and hash out the fittment first.
Good Luck
