Russian Tanker's DCU
« on: June 22, 2023, 09:24:56 PM »
I got this battle field pick up of a Russian Tanker's digital camouflage uniform off of a Facebook site run by Ukrainian servicemen and their supporters. I think it's an interesting bit of militaria that is part of history in the making.

"BOOPY" ??? Wonder if that's a nickname or something. :))
My Avatar is a pic of the real "Ghost" SKS in honor of xxxsks(joe). It is a pic of a fully decked out SKS in Capco hunter's kit. This was mine, the only other pic I had ever seen of one was Joe's.

Interesting find.   Now you need a T90M to go with it and complete your collection.

I'm sure he would, but spoils of war and all of that stuff  :))

They do auction parts from tanks on occasion, so it's possible  think1  rofl

Thats a good find. ill have to post the captured uniform my friend in Kharkiv sent me. Same current Russian army camo but no patches. I have the pants and the jacket. He sent me this before it has seemed to become a big surplus business.

You should hunt down a padded tanker helmet with the built in comms gear. I see a lot of them liberated in the current war on ebay and other sites. Seen them as cheap as $89.
