Still a wip but here is the Syrian Panzer IV !

Syria got a few in bad shape from France, some Frankenpanzer s from the Czechs and finally superb ones from Spain since they were never used.

France gave the Syrian those to 'balance' the help they sold the Israeli with the M-50 and M-51 Sherman tanks

Strangest Camo Ever !!!!! Syrian T-34-85 captured by the Israeli IDF in the Golan Heights in June 1967.
Unusual camouflage in the form of orange paint right handprints!! maybe the 'hamsa' or hand image used against the evil eye, also dedicated to the Egyptian independence fighter Mustafa Kamil. This one was a b.. to do especially since the pieces on the uv map are not the same scale...

Here is a better view of the 'hands' stenciled on this T-34
Note that they probably are stamped on as they look to be larger than human size, so not dipping your hand in the paint bucket kind of thing !
