M2/M3 Bradley Reference

Another interesting recent development is painting sand-colored Bradleys (and other vehicles) with a temporary green, water-based paint when on training rotations to Europe. The vehicles are either sprayed or hand painted with a temporary paint used by the German Army. It is a Bronze Green color, RAL 6031, used on Bundeswehr vehicles.


Names and unit markings are covered and left in sand to show through the green. Tactical markings are also masked and show up as sand. Hatch insides and around optics are usually masked off and left sand as well.

Some examples.
