Guys help me! I have purchased for a minor bargain the Nimix Patriot system (tractors radar and missile, that is four fabulous kits) . Tons of resin and Brass of the finest quality availliable worldwide!
Now I need help: Detail shots, colors and markings ( no decals on these kits) and books and links about the subject.
Hope you can help me!
All the best to you all in this wonderfull comunity!

This site might help, but the pics aren’t of really good quality. http://www.fas.org/spp/starwars/program/patriot.htm
Also, try www.army.mil. Their photo archive sections might have a pic or two of the Patriot system. Current pics would be hard to come by since the system hasn’t been in combat for about a year. I would also try doing a goggle search, and maybe check out the manufacturer’s website, also maybe this site will help. http://www.bliss.army.mil/ Its the Fort Bliss website, the home of the Air Defense Artillery, they might have a pic or two. Sorry I can’t offer more help.
Well that is a nice start, I may say so! Thank you for this input MarinR00
Not a problem at all. If I come across anything else, I’ll be sure to post it your way. Good luck.
Did an Image search on Google but most pics of the launcher (and several of the kits).
Mail Call did a story on the system on the History Channel a while back. Some great shots. Might be able to order something through their website.
I have Patriots less than 50 yards away from where I work. I will stop by and see if they will let me take some pix. Funny thing is I pass them everyday going to work, and I have never thought of taking pictures. Some times the best things are right under your nose…lol[:D]
