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

Interesting how they used the orange square on the lid to avoid friendly fire from above. Troops had orange squares inside their boshoeds too. Turn it inside out and you're identifiable from above. No fancy strobes like the US has today. Though my boshoed doesn't have an orange square...

Looks like that. It's apparently called dayglo

what would the marksman weapon be for SADF?

Don't think there were marksmen to my knowledge.

They were all marksmen by default

So, the R4

Only scoped R4 I have seen during the Border War.

This Ratel is able to detect enemy artillery barrages and pinpoint where they fired from I believe. Which allowed the SADF to fire counter barrages.

I'm assuming all of the above pictures are from SA and not Rhodesia, right? Just for folder sorting

Yes
