Hi,

I´m looking for a good source of pics of MLRS in Iraq (OIF 2003 -...) on the web.

Any suggestion?

Thanks in advance!

I don't know of any sites on the web, but I can send you a few from my unit, 1-39 FA (MLRS), 3ID. We had all sand M270s. The only other MLRS unit in the intitial invasion (OIF 1) was 2-4 FA (MLRS) out of Ft Sill, OK. They had NATO 3-tone camo launchers. Send me an email if you want the pics.

Hi Gino,

I think you already sent me some time ago your pics, but you can send them to marceloribeiro05(at)gmail.com

Maybe you had new ones.

Another doubt, can I paint the interior Tamiya Sky? I saw some pics that shows the M270 interior in a very light green.

Thanks!

Marcelo

Hey Marcelo,
Sorry to jump in here, but yes, you can use Tamiya Sky for the interior se foam green. That is what I use. I beleive Gino uses Model Master Pale Green with some white added, I may be wrong, pretty sure he will jump in here with what he uses.

Thanks Pete. Yup, either Tam Sky or MM Pale Green w/a few drops of white will do just fine for Sea Foam Green as the color is called.

No new pics, sorry. I had forgotten that I already sent them to you.
