This thread on mp.net might prove useful.

http://www.militaryphotos.net/forums/showthread.php?47427-North-Korean-Armor

Most of their soldiers do not wear camo, they wear the olive drab uniforms like these.

http://graphics.jsonline.com/graphics/news/img/dec03/linebbig122103.jpg

Their camoflage scheme is very similar to US woodland, but again, is rarely seen in use.

In terms of small arms, AKM's, Type 56's, RPD's, PKM's, type 69 and RPG 7 rpg's, RPG-2 RPG's, Type 81 assault rifles (rare), and apparently some AK-74 knockoff although I have never seen any pictures.

Armor: Mainly indigenous versions of the T-62.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ch'%C5%8Fnma-ho

BTR-60 and 152, older btrs, t-55 and 54, t-62, t-62 with 125mm gun (upgrade), many tanks with old ERA, possibly T-72, rumors about some new tank (possibly T-80) but few if that is. PT-76 too i guess.

Air Force -

Mig-21/23, chinese J planes, An-2, Il-76, An-12/22 too I think, Su-25 possibly, tupolev bombers (16 and early 22). Have a fleet of suicide planes (older mig 15/17/19, old su's and chinese copies, other older planes too) An-2 for commandos. Mi-2 and 4, mi-24A and mi-8.

Looking for information on MATADOR AT/AS Launcher and the associated 90mm Rocket (outline for modeling). Also need accurate markings for the tube.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MATADOR_%28weapon%29

I already have the launcher in O2, but no missile.

These are drawings of the Dynamit Nobel 'Wirkmittel 90' warhead, which I believe is marketed as MATADOR AS

As for markings; which country are you doing it for?

From what I can tell, the Israeli, Singaporean or European (UK and Slovenian) versions all have different markings depending on who's manufacturing it.

I've got a decent pic of the markings for the British L2A1 ASM version of MATADOR (albeit an INERT one), if that's the version you want to make.

Thanks damonkey. Probably work off the Singaporean or Slovenian as they use the MP version which is the one I am after.

This is the only half-decent pic I could find of the Slovenian RGW-90 version:

rgw90.jpg

The diagrams under the optics appear to show on the left; instructions for readying the weapon: setting the fuze mode, setting up the launcher (folding out the optics, stock, fore-grip, pistol-grip and switching the safety off). The one on the right looks like there's an explanation of the range graticule lines for the optics.

The text is in Slovenian so even if I could make out what it says; I wouldn't be able to read it.

It's an ISTAR mast with a laser range finder and thermal imaging system. IIRC the Irish Defence Forces bought the system from Elbit but I don't know the name of it (there was the usual media fuss surrounding arms-deals with Israel).

It looks very similar to the Elbit LEGATUS system for HMMWV, but a bit more heavy-duty.

RGW-90 is already in A2, done by Mchide (SBP Slovenian Soldiers pack - internal WIP).

Cool pics, hope they're useful to anyone who's interested in making naval addons. ;)

Also, this is the website of a military advising company for movies, films, video games, television, etc. They have a lot of good videos and pictures that could be of use: http://www.tacticalmediagroup.net/militaryadvising.html

Well, theoretically Oxigen 2 allows importing of the following formats:

3d Studio file

Maya BIANM file

OBJ File

ASF/AMC (Mocap)

Biovision BVH

So anything that produces a file in any of those formats can be used

Hope if helps
