Radio Shelter info

The pickup truck size ones? Anything is possible but I think the Air Force Blue would have been used for base vehicles and not the tactical vehicles which would have carried these shelters. IMO
The two I have came from a Air Force base and were painted OD. Wayne

We did have one S250 HMMWV mounted shelter in my unit, 10th ASOS, a TACP unit. But we were a tactical unit so all our stuff was painted desert tan.

S-250 Shelter in USAF blue

Here are some photos of the S-250 shelter in blue. Any idea if original USAF? Anyone ever seen one in blue before?
Thanks,

Can you post these to your other thread and then delete this one?
Also, post close up photos of the data plate.
The blue looks like faded Strata Blue.

Tractor is an '83

My take on your S250 is that whatever govt agency that installed the unoriginal white vent and little antenna also painted your shelter blue.

That is not USAF Blue. The truck in the background of pic one is closer to Strata Blue.

Thanks for all the helpful (and some not so helpful) feedback. I am new to this and overall the sites user friendliness reminds me of my days swimming in the governments ocean of red tape. I will be posting these for sale in the classified section. Again, thanks to those who offered friendly and helpful answers.

Don't know my way around this site. It is a bit overwhelming for a newbie. I am learning and will not start a new post on this same subject.

Dont let it get to you. We were all new at one time, it just takes a little time to figure out how the site is run.

Just so you know, it takes 100 posts before you can post a classified ad. You dont want to get caught posting them in the forums for sale just because you don't have the required number of posts to place a classified ad.
