Hey guys,

I've been searching the web and found a few reference photos of the M113 but i would prefer to follow the M113A2 that was used in OIF. Can anyone out there recommend to me the best reference site for it?

Seeing as alot of countries use the M113, i found a whole lot of different derivations but very little in the iraq war.

Would be great if you could share your links with me.

Cheers!

Yes I to am always on the lookout for good pics. Primeportal has a few of the m113a3.
I just search for m113 in oif or m113 iraq etc.

The website statagy page has some good pics but you gota look for them.

If I find a good site I'll let ya know and vice versa.

Cheers

So you aren't looking for M113A2 generic details, just the M113A2 in using during OIF? Early stages or current use.

If you can access them, you can browse the galleries at www.dod.mil and www.army.mil but the older pictures drop off after a while. Plus the painful crawl through webshots.com and militaryphotos.net.

If no luck then I'll see what I've saved to the hard drive and can email. Are you just looking for stowage and color examples?

Thanks i will try those. Im basically looking to get as much of the details correct so stowage and even how it typically looks during an operation so references on weathering is also what im looking for.

If you have any, would be great if you could email to [email protected].

Once again thanks in advance.

Cheers for that Steve. Yet another forum for me to troll on.
