Description
Dark Gunship Gray is a modern military gray used extensively in U.S. Air Force tactical camouflage schemes. Its deep, flat finish minimizes visibility during high-altitude and low-light missions. This tone is perfect for aircraft that require a subdued, non-reflective surface without compromising on scale realism, particularly in the post-Vietnam to present-day era.
