Hi,
There is no category in WA for Luft vehicles (or any vehicles ) and flak guns so hope this is the most appropriate section seeing some artillery vehicles here !
I am trying to establish the true colour of Luftwaffe Flak Guns and vehicles in 1940 and seek photos of unrestored examples, ideally taken out of doors but indoors welcome also. Prewar RAL7016 is mentioned but without seeing an actual wartime colour swatch this is not much use as using the internet to view this colour sees so many variations in squares of colour supposed to be this shade.
Even parts from flak guns photographed out of doors would be of use. In 1940 they went over to using RAL7021, a colour with less blue in it. Knowing the date of manufacture of the vehicle or weapon would be useful though such is rarely recorded when photographing items.
Thus I may well be looking at examples of both RAL7016 and RAL7021 and it will take an assembly of pics maybe unless dates are known to sort them into two distinct colour sets.
Hope to see photos posted to this thread.
