                        Soviet-Afghan Armor reference help
                        Posted by Coldsteel6d on Wednesday, November 18, 2009 3:51 PM

                        I am trying to build a T-62 used in the Soviet-Afghan conflict. I would like to make it as an Afghan tank either government or Mujahideen. All i can find are pictures of soviet tanks or modern Afgan ones.

                         

                        Anyone out there know a place to get wartime photos for Afghan tanks? Even if its not a T-62 maybe I could at least get some ideas and put it to use.

                         

                        thanks

                        Did you check the first page of the Bear Trap Group build? We've linked a few online resources for you to use. You might also consider asking for advice in there as well.

                        Think I have heard you speak of it before. But for this build I need something that was around durring the Soviet occupation. Don't think Taliban would count for me. I have found photos of Northern Alliance and Taliban pics but neither group was in existance durring the Soviet occupation so they are out. Appreciate your reply though.
