    German peacekeeper uses his dogs to control a crowd from entering a stadium to watch a soccer game on February 15, 2002 in Kabul, Afghanistan. Only a limited number of tickets were given out, but that did not stop soccer fans from attempting to enter the stadium. (Photo by Chien-min Chung/***** Images)

    Hello!

    It is the French camo. If you look on these images you can see that it is the French bullet proof veste. We got it for military activities in foreign countries.

    You can compare it with this image of the French Ministry of Defense:

    I disagree with you. It is the same, look at site 1 of this thread, there is the photograph I used. I wore the Austrian and I also have the French one.

    You mean this picture? (1) They are regulars, not Jagdkommando (2) They are wearing the old-style vest - and yes it is exactly the french one! The new austrian vest is - of course in RAL 7013 browngreen. You can see it on the pictures with the new hot climate uniform.

    This picture was taken before the ISAF 3 contingent left Austria

    Here we go. Some pics from the Airforce

    Old Saab J-35OE Draken. They're decommisioned (Austria had 24 of them). I saw their last flight on the Airpower 2005 in Zeltweg.(big airshow in Austria)




    Currently we are using F-5E from Switzerland. They're leased and we will give them back to Switzerland when we will get our new Eurofighter.





    This is the newest A/C in the Austrian Airforce. The S-70 Black Hawk





    And here one of the oldest A/C. The SC-7 Sky Caravan




    The Saab 105OE is used for reconnaissance and training





    And now some ground system.
    Mistral


    3,5cm AA, type 85



    And here a C-130K Hercules




    Hope no rmm.
