Well, I have a few.

The first was taken at their tank training center I would that is about 100 miles NE of Melbourne.

That picture shown looks very familiar to me as one I posted originally when they got those tanks back in 2007.

You might find the next interesting as well...

More arrive in 2008 ...

As I'm sure you noticed opening the above, you're seeing most of what I did.

So, here's my thought on the matter, I believe for a period of a year or two as the shipments arrived it is possible some retained our desert colors until painted to the AUSCAMO scheme. So is it worth it to have them in the U.S. desert camo, I don't feel it necessary to do so.

That being said, the many pictures of the current AUSCAMO scheme would definitely support a little more of the desert color. Maybe just slightly widening out what you already have.

Regards,
Pat

Two of the links I added to my previous post failed ....I have just corrected the problem but here is what you missed seeing before you posted



The ones just shipped from the States and driven off the boat don't count

The Icons above are what you will see for the Australian M1A2 SEP the final release

All three are perfect, because if you look at the actual pictures closely you can see clearly see the variance in the AUSCAMO you've duplicated with your ICONs.

Like I said, the U.S. camo was a non-starter for me personally. I just followed the information where it took me.

Pat

And there will be revisions for the Australian winter and desert m1a1's as well




Alternate winter....... I favour a more " well used" look of late especially for winter icons.....no more pristine starched linen table cloth white battle tanks
