Very nice indeed Mick - I wonder if the stripes serve the same purpose as the shield with a cross on modern German MBTs? (Whatever that is!)

Steve is right, they do serve the same purpose: night-driving under black-out conditions. Their purpose is so that the following vehicle can see where the one in front is, and hopefully keep sufficient distance that it won’t bump into it but also not go so far back that it falls behind.Comment

That reminds me of the guy in our troop who road up the AML-90 in fronts bum in a another AML-90 in a night time exercise and bent the 90mm barrel, he was in big sh*t.Steve is right, they do serve the same purpose: night-driving under black-out conditions.
