Hi all,

I have just put together a SAM 2 missile and launcher but am at a loss to find what colours the Egyptian army in 1973 used. I doubt they stuck with the original Soviet colours, but beyond that I have no idea!!!

I've seen 2 photos one from ‘85 shows the tow and launcher in pale sand and the missile pale grey the other with no date is the same but with brown camo on the tow and launcher, missile in the same pale grey

Thanks for that Black Bull, one of my pals at the club has rung me to say he has a Vanguard book on the SA-2 which he is bringing to the club. From what he described from a quick read, it seems that your info is on the right track!
