It's time for another look at the Radkampfwagenwearing a scheme that suits it's cast, spaced-armour Leopard 1A3 turret, this time hailing from Down Under, the venerable Leopard AS1.
There were still about 10 years of service left for the Leos at this point, but by now they'd aquired their classic three-tone camo, which darkened slightly in colour as it neared the end of its service time, similar to the M1A1 AIMs that replaced it, here its a slightly more pistachio/biscuit combo (for an ice-cream based comparison).
The Leos now find themselves more often than not entirely gutted and forming the centre of memorials or gate guards across the country, but back in 94 they still tearing around the bush, in this case during an exercise in the more arid parts of the North of the country. With that in mind the vehicle has a good coating of dust on its nether regions.
This is based around refs from the book below, filled out with some aided guesswork courtesy of a paint layout pic. I've switched from the original "Chinook", callsign 12C, to 11C with the made up name Chongju.
Chongju is an Aussie battle honour from the Korean War, where the 3rd Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment formed part of 27th British Commonwealth Brigade. They were a hastily assmebled but well trained Mechanised Infantry force, along with two understrength British Battalions and support from the US 90th Field Artillery Battalion and Shermans from 89th Tank Battalion. 200 men from this unit cleared out a North Korean unit 3 times their size supported by T-34-85s and SU-76s, as part of the United Nations advance following the Inchon landings.
The reason I didn't go with "Chinook" and went to the trouble of this substantial back story business, is because I wanted the callsign on the vehicle engine grilles, and with the way they are there was no way to do this, even using a combination of techniques, however, it was possible to just do three straight lines, hence 11C!
