In the early 80's, what color was the interior of West German AFVs? I remember US AFV interiors were a sickly pastel green then, but while I saw plenty of Bundeswehr AFVs back then, I was never inside one. Any help greatly appreciated.

White. For the US, APC's had the green interior, tanks had white.

Thanks Major. The only image I could find on the net of an actual M113 Panzermörser showed the same green interior as US M113s

Yes, the M113 family of vehicles came with the green interior. But for Marders and Fuchs they where white.
