UNITED ARAB REPUBLIC

SINAI FIELD ARMY

The United Arab Republic operated in the deserts of Egypt,

the Sinai and Yemen, so its uniforms were an appropriate
light sand colour. The remainder of their equipment was of
Soviet origin, suitably repainted in a sand colour in the case
of the helmets.

UAR ARMOURED VEHICLES

Arab tanks were supplied in the Soviet Armys standard green
paint (Russian Uniform (924)), but were completely overpainted in a pale sand colour with no camouflage and very
few markings. Some tanks may have carried vehicle numbers
on the turret sides, and some pictures show eagles and other
markings in parades.
