I hear ya. Thank goodness for the internet to dig up info. The colors are 34102, 34092, and 36081. Technically both greens are named "medium green". Although 34092 is also known as European 1 Dark Green. It is the same color as WWII Medium Green 42.

those are probably the same colours I need for my CAS F-16 - thanks Stik.

The Warthog is looking awesome Fermis - what do you make of the kit?

Stuart, they are indeed the same colors. They were also worn by USAF Phantoms of the same era, the prototype Strike Eagle, and even some late serving F-105s. Variations using two grays or one green and one gray were seen on transports, SAC Bombers, and types like the A-7, A-37, and OV-10.
