Has anyone managed to get some photos of the OPFOR vehicles at CMTC Wainwright?
The couple of photos that I have seen showed a modified Leopard C2, a LAV 3, and a technical.
The Leopard has the side skirts removed, the barrel jacket removed, the frontal section of add-on armour removed, 45 gallon fuel drums attached to the back deck, a simulate snorkel atached to the turret bins, and a simulated Soviet style 12.7 mm MG on the turret behind the commander's hatch..
How many have been or were modified? Was it just a trial or are there permanent OPFOR vehicles?
It would seem that CMTC OPFOR would be a great place to send some of those Grizzlies sitting in limbo.
Any info is appreciated.
