Military Iveco Stralis Hi-Way?

[Oldmopars]

I have an Iveco Stralis I have been building for a little bit. I keep running into a blank when it comes to the paint job. So I have been throwing around the idea of painting it OD Green.

However, while I have visited the UK/Europe I know very little about the military and don't know if a truck like this would even be used.

My plan is to get a 1/24 or 1/25 scale tank(rare) and maybe a 1/24 Land Rover to put on a trailer someday.

Would this be totally wrong, or would this be something that is seen on the road in Europe/UK? I guess it would be more Europe then UK as this Iveco is Left hand drive.

I did a Google I don't think it would be wrong.

Well, I said the heck with it and took it out and shot it with OD green. I like it so far. I will have to post some pictures in the build area.

Now just find some Swiss license plates!  The Swiss armed forces ordered a bunch of Iveco Stralis trucks in May 2017. And yep, they're painted OD green:

Thanks, mine will be a Stralis 4x2. Just need to add some military stuff to the trailer when I get it.
