Camouflage netting over armour in Vietnam

Hey Shellback, funny, that's the exact photo that prompted my build. I was just thinking of enhancing it with a camo net. Thanks to the responses here i won't bother.

Cheers

The NVA had very limited use of helo's over South Vietnam, near the Cambodian border. I did hear that one US helo actually shot down a NVA helo, but I have never been  able to verify it

True, camo nets are to prevent enemy aircraft from viewing what's below. The enemy aircraft in Vietnam was mainly dogfighter/interceptor trying to shoot down US aircraft over North Vietnam, not attacking ground targets.

10-4 , no nets , but if you go with a tarp heres another ides , a bunkered M-108 .

Agreed.....no nets in VN....  Tarps for sun and rain cover, but no camo.

Rounds Complete!!

Instead of netting here's an idea . A tarp on a dug in M-48 .

I cant think of one shot I have seen with camo netting on any US AFVs in Vietnam.  Certainly none on any books in my library. Nearly everthing else can be seen on them though...

Good question. I don't recall seeing any photos of camo netting over SEA armor either.  Ample photo proof of the usage of tarps/canvas for sun and rain.
