Мне также обещали прислать сканы тамиевских декалей для 1/25 модели цента.
From my refereces it appears all centurions in use in korea used deep bronze green (like british racing green but darker) The kings royal hussars who served there in 1951 (which i prefer because of the imjin battle) had a lot more markings (thanthe 1953 one used by the 1st Royal Tank Regt. (i think we only had one battalion at a time out there but i might be wrong). 1 rtr just painted the vehicle registration (for example 02BA37) and also the RAC (red over yellow, red in top left as triangle, yellow as triangle oposing in bottom right) flash on the rear hull plate (and front left trackguard) with the unit serial 41 superimposed in white. On at least one tank (used by a military medal winner ) the crew also painted their girlfriends names on the gun and front hull, but this was probably uncommon (the British army like
the Russian army doesnt really go on such things Also the Ist battalion at the time generally used A names (being first letter of the alphabet) to 'offically' name the tanks. The military medal winners tank was called ARROMANCHES, which was a town the rtr fought in in normandy (i think The tanks serial number was painted on the lower hull front top, and usally on a plate suspended over the right rear mudguard. I got most of all this from the centurion tank in battle (isbn 0 85045 3984 ) Sorry its not much, but like i say of you contact Bovington tank museum in Dorset you might get more comprehensive instructions. If the Russian army pays the airfare ill bring a can of Bronze green with me lol.
