Come vedete ricompare la dicitura "MEU maritime raid force" quindi seguendo la logica e le informazioni che abbiamo recuperato fin'ora, ci dovrebbero essere 2 tipi di unità VBSS: i force recon che si occupano della parte "speciale" dell'operazione (essendo le direct action il loro pane quotidiano) e la raid force che da supporto e si occupa del resto (e sono fanti MEU "normali").
La cosa che mi piace davvero tanto è l'accostamento SPC, coverall OD, LWH e cover marpat woodland, figherrimo![]()

fsbe + cwu sage green è decisamente il mio loadout preferito
mi incuriosisce il tipo là in fondo con la crye combat in tan... chissà chi è
vedo che le aerografie tamarre hanno preso il posto dei numeracci segnati a pennarello
chissà dove finiranno, già tengono le pistole alla gangster dietro gli scudi, probabilmente il prossimo passo e rifarsi il corredo di ess con la lente dorata eheheh
Avete notato che cè lo stesso tipo con la carrying handle sul ris dell' M16 che si vedeva qualche foto fa?
belle foto Petro, un altro paio così e mi sa che cambio setup...![]()
