I have a challenge for or eveyone at this time. I'm looking for some refrencs pics both in and outside of the Hummers in OIF. Like the ones that the Marines would use. I'm also looking for Pics of Hummers parked on the side of the road with another veical next to it, and maybe even some troops around them ant stuff like that. Its for a futere project that I have in Mind right now, and I'm just trying to get some more Ideas on how to do this one. I'm also looking for pices that would show the Wiring inside of the Huvees like the wiring that would go from the radio to maybe the antines on the back of the Viecal. Is their also a web sight that show's how so super detail the hummer. this is one of those over time projects that could cost a preaty Peinni. I'll be useing the Modern Tamiye one with the Mk-19 on top of it. so I could get all of the pices and addvice and information for this project as possable.

For pictures, go to www.google.com and type in
"Humvee Iraq" or any other key words. Click on the tab that says images and go from there.

For aftermarket sets, take a look at Blast-Models.com for their Humvee add on sets. Their weapon ring set is great. Take a look at my gallery to see what it looks like - the kit is a breeze to build; I have two of them.



For the interior, you won't see a huge amount on the inside closed up, but if you want, ProArt make a SINCGAR set; the radio provided in the kit is circa-Operation Desert Storm. Military units (Marines included) have transfered to SINCGARs.

Lastly, look around the site. There are many members here that are in a much closer position to tell you about the interior and the small details. Do a search for M1025 and OIF. There is at least one posting of a Humvee about every one to two weeks.

Most of the radio wires aren't too visible. The antenna wires from the front usually just go under the mount and then are hidden by plates that run to the antenna mounts in the rear of the vehicle. About half of ours have Blue Force Tracker which puts additional equipment into the vehicle and wires. I have a few external pics of trucks and can probally take a few of the inside if you would like a few. Another thing is the Mark 19 isn't a common weapon system seen on top of the M1114s most use a M240B or M2HB Flex. Just PM me with your e-mail and I'll try to hook you up. Only stuck in the hell for about 30 more days so time is kind of the essence.

Great site. Thanks for posting this one Ryan.



thanks, I use this one for reference all the time, IMO, its the most organized one out there. Picture quality is not the best, but it is good enough. A one stop reference for just about ANY weapon system used by US forces today,
