Hi All,
Just a quickie, did M270 MLRS vehicles in ODS have CIP panels? and if so where were the CIPs attached?
TIA
Tom

No because the CIP did not come out until after ODS. The CIP was one of the answers to "How do we prevent fratricide" after ODS.

Yes, MLRS launchers did have CIPs in OIF. I was in 1-39 FA (MLRS), 3ID during OIF 1 (invasion) and our launchers had them. Some were green, some were sand.
