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.

2019-09-04 14:13:25 UTC  

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

2019-09-04 14:13:41 UTC  

If so that'll make life far easier for me

2019-09-04 14:16:39 UTC  

Lol

2019-09-04 14:16:57 UTC  

Koevoet sometimes fought in civvies

2019-09-04 14:17:12 UTC  

But yes they wore standard browns for most the war tho

2019-09-04 14:18:50 UTC  

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.

2019-09-04 14:19:20 UTC  

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

2019-09-04 14:19:34 UTC  

Since it gets fuck hot in a casspir

2019-09-04 14:19:52 UTC  

Read this book btw

2019-09-04 14:19:54 UTC  

Very good

2019-09-04 14:20:09 UTC  

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

2019-09-04 14:21:06 UTC  

There is that same palm symbol again

2019-09-04 14:22:05 UTC  

Any pic descriptions?

2019-09-04 14:22:29 UTC  

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

2019-09-04 14:23:02 UTC  

It probably had one but finding it again is a mission

2019-09-04 14:24:22 UTC  

Hmmmm never seen it before

2019-09-04 14:24:56 UTC  

Might be SWATF

2019-09-04 14:25:00 UTC  

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

2019-09-04 14:25:11 UTC  

Oshakati?

2019-09-04 14:25:57 UTC  

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

2019-09-04 14:27:04 UTC  

Oshakati also had a similar tower

2019-09-04 14:27:09 UTC  

With an AA gun on it

2019-09-04 14:27:29 UTC  

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

2019-09-04 14:29:00 UTC  

Concrete one was called alpha tower I believe.

2019-09-04 14:29:14 UTC  

Hmmm yes

2019-09-04 14:29:48 UTC  

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

2019-09-04 14:30:06 UTC  

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

2019-09-04 14:30:23 UTC  

One hand on each

2019-09-04 14:30:28 UTC  

I suppose?

2019-09-04 14:31:00 UTC  

Nope

2019-09-04 14:31:08 UTC  

Its connected to a spoon trigger

2019-09-04 14:31:34 UTC  

They had one with 3 Mags

2019-09-04 14:32:37 UTC  

I'll have to do my research on that then as I'll be including dual mags, 30s and 50s

2019-09-04 14:33:04 UTC  

On casspirs and buffels.

2019-09-04 14:33:18 UTC  

They put just about anything layong around on the vics

2019-09-04 14:33:27 UTC  

.50s with a mag

2019-09-04 14:33:33 UTC
