That yellow. And the brown… How could they do that to the Abrams!
It reminds me of the tanks you find in packets of toy soldiers at budget shops.

I actually quite like it … probably works ok in some settings … was it for a demo ??
My first thought, where’s the RAL 6003 Olivgrun? (J/k)
That would be a fun scheme to paint.
11th ACR.
Which version is it?
Amazing images. Thank you
And it’s a new V3
Of course you would. It’s very reminiscent of British Middle East cammo of the 50’s/60’s.
I’ll bet you remember it well.
Oh … cruel … very cruel dude
And on a serious note … that is an A2 isnt it ? is it also a SEP 2 ? as I have only primed mine at the moment … just saying …
That is most definitely an M1A2 SEPV3
Dan’s photos are of V2s, the first photo is a V3.
Yup, rear bumper numbers say 11 ACR, HQ 10.
I built an M1A1 in this scheme for the 1st SQN CDR as a going away present from his troops back in '05 or '06.
Yup
Gino, was that CARC Tan ? and what was the brown ?
Looking over browns, the AK NATO brown appears to be a decent match ?
Now this is a cool surprise and I love it. Another build added to the bucket list
@Dan Some lovely dunkelgelb sponge chipping work going on there… oh wait
Yes, the paints were CARC on the actual vehicles. Not sure of the actual brown color, but the tan was the standard sand FS 33531 used on all US vehicles. The 11 ACR actually deployed with the vehicles painted this way to Iraq in '05.
Look at the Royal Jordanian army of the 50’s -70’s
