@Springbok Some police units wore browns as well

not impossible for the SADF to use that vehicle

I think this pic is from the Border War. Most likely FAPLA vehicles?

Bmp-1 and BM-21 Stalin Organ

@Kooijpolloi any idea whether identifying symbols such as that red star were common on Angolan ground vehicles?

I'm going to have to find a way to make UNITA and FAPLA vehicles identifiable from each other. Otherwise whenever there are UNITA vs FAPLA layers there will be a clusterfuck of friendly fire...

I'm thinking MPLA symbol on FAPLA vehicles. And UNITA will have their own although that rooster would look ridiculous on any vehicle...

I wonder whether this is a bosvark? I don't have any decent images of one. And all I know about them is that they were unimogs with a "bathtub" put in the back for some mine protection.

That symbol for FAPLA vehicles?

While looking for refs I found this armoured Special task force bakkie

The Ratel 81 is going to be a real nuisance I reckon. Due to it being able to relocate quickly. There is far less of a chance of it being overrun like a static mortar squad.

It gives the game new challenges

If the ratel is located it can easily be taken out by an RPG

And yes the unimog is a bosvark

what are the SADF using for there logis?

The kwêvoël

@Kooijpolloi any knowledge on when the change of uniform cut took place? Notice pointed front pockets vs straight rectangle pockets.

Samil 50 and 100

Both armoured and soft skin versions

Pity the Ratel logistics was never adopted

i was about to say having an armored logi would be a neat game mechanic.

if not lightly armored

Top two are the armoured samil 100 kwevoel

Bottom is the samil 50? Soft skin

Samil 100 and samil 50 are the same truck I believe just the 100 has two extra wheels

Or more if they're double

Fapla used the btr-152 early on but quickly switched to the btr-60 after Op Savannah IIRC.

Captured FAPLA vehicles during Op Protea? BRDM-2, PT-76, T-34'85 and a GAZ 66? Only one of those vehicles is currently in SQUAD

Thank you for the additions to my Bush Wars folder

You're welcome.

Got plenty, plenty more

I'm up to ~68 pictures, always looking for more

Hows this one? A really weird looking vehicle. Can't remember its name.

You'll probably like these ones

Awesome stuff, thank you!

Maybe Dana could ID that vehicle?

Possibly

G6 Rhino always looks amazing in every picture.

Would be fun to have the jakkals in at some point. Small with a big 50 on it.

Seen one with dual 50's too
