Nice! I always did like the overall Forest Green look on an Abrams.

Nice work, good to see the diversity of the green look. Keep the good work coming.

Rounds Complete!!

Nicely done. I never knew they came in overall green, wish I'd seen this before I destroyed one awhile back on a botched NATO camouflage.

Looks good,not a scheme you see every day,looks like you faded out some panels also.

Looks good! I like it!

Nice work on the mono green scheme.

Thanks everyone. I asked around from some web forum source and found out some of the forest green abrams tanks that were used during the late 80s to early 90s. The APU hull mounted tanks were used stateside.

Yup, before the NATO tri color camo was widespread, alot of sutff was coming in to units in theDark Green base color only. I saw plenty of that in the second half of the 80s, in Europe and Stateside.

Agreed, at my unit C1/5 Cav our Bradleys were Dark Green, while the other Companies were painted Green NATO cammo and one Company was painted Desert NATO in prep for a field trip to the California Desert.

In Germany, our whole Battalion was Dark Green, while the other units were painted NATO Cammo.

The Abrams tanks that were overall dark green in the late 80s were M1 and M1IP, all the M1A1s came in factory 3-color NATO. The Marines did have some depot rebuilt M1A1s that came in overall forest green, but wouldn't have had the external APU.

You did a good job on the tank.
