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

2019-09-04 00:19:07 UTC  

And yes the unimog is a bosvark

2019-09-04 00:19:09 UTC

2019-09-04 00:19:24 UTC  

The kwêvoël

2019-09-04 00:19:30 UTC  

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

Samil 50 and 100

2019-09-04 00:20:09 UTC  

Both armoured and soft skin versions

2019-09-04 00:21:25 UTC  

Pity the Ratel logistics was never adopted

2019-09-04 00:21:35 UTC  

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

2019-09-04 00:22:02 UTC  

if not lightly armored

2019-09-04 00:23:19 UTC  

Top two are the armoured samil 100 kwevoel

2019-09-04 00:23:42 UTC  

Bottom is the samil 50? Soft skin

2019-09-04 00:24:32 UTC  

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

2019-09-04 00:25:02 UTC  

Or more if they're double

2019-09-04 00:27:01 UTC  

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

2019-09-04 00:28:33 UTC  

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

2019-09-04 00:30:13 UTC  

Thank you for the additions to my Bush Wars folder

2019-09-04 00:30:53 UTC  

You're welcome.

2019-09-04 00:31:01 UTC  

Got plenty, plenty more

2019-09-04 00:31:15 UTC  

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

2019-09-04 00:32:13 UTC  

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

2019-09-04 00:34:31 UTC  

Awesome stuff, thank you!

2019-09-04 00:34:46 UTC  

Maybe Dana could ID that vehicle?

2019-09-04 00:34:57 UTC  

Possibly

2019-09-04 00:35:36 UTC  

G6 Rhino always looks amazing in every picture.

2019-09-04 00:37:15 UTC  

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

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/510515265834844160/618605464405540871/15698db4e847e9685bc11646f7385fbd.jpg

2019-09-04 00:37:36 UTC  

Seen one with dual 50's too

2019-09-04 00:40:18 UTC  

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...

2019-09-04 00:45:00 UTC  

Looks like that. It's apparently called dayglo

2019-09-04 00:45:33 UTC  

what would the marksman weapon be for SADF?

2019-09-04 00:46:07 UTC  

Don't think there were marksmen to my knowledge.

2019-09-04 00:46:28 UTC  

They were all marksmen by default

2019-09-04 00:46:30 UTC  

So, the R4

2019-09-04 00:48:42 UTC  

Only scoped R4 I have seen during the Border War.

2019-09-04 00:53:26 UTC  

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

2019-09-04 00:55:12 UTC  

Yes
