Rare pic of the milkor y2 mgl in use during the war. I wonder how common these were at the squad level...

Anyone know if that palm tree symbol is just "nose art" or an actual unit insignia?

This picture was listed as Rhodesian Selous scouts but I don't believe it is as I don't recall the Rhodesians ever using nutria uniforms

I like the foliage on the helmets. Would be nice to have such an option.

Mortar squad. One thing I dislike about Squad's mortars is that they feel very static. It is difficult to relocate as it costs you build points to assemble and you don't get them back when disassembling the mortar as far as I know. Would be far better if those build points used were restored to the logi when digging down the mortar.

Helicopter coming in to refuel at an HAA. I hope fuel becomes a thing in SQUAD at some point otherwise helicopters will be constantly flying over the operational area without needing to refuel.

Ooof probably nope

@Kooijpolloi do you know if the koevoet uniforms were the same cut as the sadf browns?

If so that'll make life far easier for me

Lol

Koevoet sometimes fought in civvies

But yes they wore standard browns for most the war tho

I know they wore browns too. Just wondering whether their camouflage uniforms were the same as the browns just in a camo pattern that way I don't have to sculpt two different uniforms. Just one that has two different textures, one nutria and one koevoet camo.

The camo pants were long pants but they sometimes cut them short

Since it gets fuck hot in a casspir

Read this book btw

Very good

I'll see if I can get it at some point

There is that same palm symbol again

Any pic descriptions?

I'm going to include various insignia and symbols on SADF vehicles too where they were historically such as the 61 mech logo on 61 mech Ratels

It probably had one but finding it again is a mission

Hmmmm never seen it before

Might be SWATF

What base is that in the background in the first pic it looks very familiar

Oshakati?

I've seen that same base in several reference images. Maybe Ondangwa?

Oshakati also had a similar tower

With an AA gun on it

At the top of that tower is a double 23mm yes

Concrete one was called alpha tower I believe.

Hmmm yes

Twin mags... wouldn't want to be on the receiving end

How the hell did they fire both at the same time...

One hand on each

I suppose?

Nope

Its connected to a spoon trigger

They had one with 3 Mags
