Modern German Equipment

Modeling Subjects Armor

Does anyone know what I could use to replicate modern German equipment? I wanted to add a few odds and ends to my Tamiya Leopard 2A6, but wasn’t sure exactly what to use

I don’t have a positive answer, but as I recall the Germans didn’t pile a bunch of stuff on their tanks. Most everything gets stowed inside a box or is carried by the company’s wheeled vehicles. I’ve seen some tank units with their rail loading equipment, metal chock blocks and chains/binders, in the bustle rack though. Modern German armor tends to be pretty neat.

Thanks. I was just hoping to put something in the little corner bustle racks and the one small rear one. They don’t have a lot of external storage space

I do saw one picture they have camonflage net on one of the bustle racks … u can try put one on …

Thanks. I might do that. Was that picture online or in a book? I want to see how it was hung/placed

They dont tend to spend an incredebly long time in the field, so they dont hang that much on their vehicles. They ususally roll it with their wheelled trains. Mostly they run training out of a contonment area, so there is no need to carry alot of gear.
