Red's still use star symbol on vehicles ?

darthpanda: very nice. When I have time, I will scan the blueprint of the swiss 6x6 piranha with norvegian TOW tower.

@Rhade: The red star is now used again, althoug in there is a blue line on the egde:

I'll be damned. Red star is back! Red banner is back! Good, old Reds are back!

Although the red / soviet army was a unique fighting machine and a very good symbol of that fighting power, I am not shure if reintroducing the red star is really a good sign. People could think that the russian government is mentally still in the soviet times.

Maybe the americans should now use the white star again.

As far as i know the red star is u sed only in parades and other shows. operational vehicles dont have it.

And yes it is still soviet mentaly. just look at putins regime

Red's army ... unique fighting machine, perfect designation of it. Gosudar Putin rise new army in old style, it's time to dust off old sabre sons of White Eagle ... here we go again.

I'm not sure why You all seem so surprised. Red star never ceased to be a "logo" of the post-soviet Russian Armed Forces. Military District headquartered in St. Petersburg till it's very last days was officialy named "Leningrad Military District" etc. etc.

Rhade - I'm not sure if we still have any sabres left to dust off...

These are all LAVIII, but it seems to me that the mortar carrier and the ARV are un the Bison (LavII) chassis....
