Whilst comprising overall FS16270 Neutral grey with FS16118 Gunship Grey, the darker grey was applied as camouflage patches to the upper fuselage. The inner wings (both upper and lower) were also painted in the darker grey. The fin, outer wings and tailplanes were FS12197 Insignia Orange and the aircraft wore black "TD" tailcodes and "TEAM TARGET" on the fin surrounded by black bands.

This was Light Compass Ghost Grey FS36375 with the upper fuselage, engine nacelles and wings painted Dark Green FS34092.
