@JWoolford27 I wasn,t aware the British painted the SAS vehicles pink until the introduction of the "Pink Panther Landrovers". Pink was chosen as it was found that lost aircraft in the desert that had been sandblasted by the fierce storms, ended up still in their pink coloured primer, and were almost impossible to see from the air during daylight. Im not sure the pink colour would help for night time spotting, although having seen military service, I know a matt finish certainly helps.
Another fake Walt SAS Landrover. Ingredients: 1 x Series 3 109, 1 gallon of sand paint, and then troll war and peace show for any bits to make it look some thing like the real thing, except of course the SAS "Pinkies" were Series 2A .
This is the same type of 'Land Rover' however the Regiment in WW2 in the Deserts of Libya, used a 'Pinkie' Jeep that they painted & stole off of the yanks in World War 2, it was a light shaded pink, so it cannot be spotted in the desert at night time.
@yehudiadelphos1 They're flares so if a heat seeking missile is launched at them they can fire them so they dont get hit. the same thing is on tanks and humvees too.

@dustinml14 Nope, they're for popping smoke grenades. That way they can create a 360 degree smokescreen and get the fuck out of a firefight.
