Hi there,
for my next project Ihave the old Tamiya M2 Bradley IFV in my stash. I like to do a vehicle serving in Germany, would it be suitable? And what about the paint scheme, couldn't find since when the 3-tone-camo was used?
thanks a lot
greetings robert

Yes, it was used in Europe up through the early '90s.

Early overall Forest Green in 3ID, Germany


'80s MERDC camo





NATO Camo used since mid-'80s.

Gino,
thanks a lot for the pictures. I think I will go then with the overall forest green. From my references I only found M3's in Germany.
Thanks again

There were both M2 and M3 in Germany from the beginning.
