I'm not a know-it-all, but I was a crew chief on this plane for four years. The color used in Iraq are the same colors used regularly, unless of course it's the two tone brown desert scheme. If your interested in modeling that color scheme, I have some "interesting" pictures taken during Desert Storm from HMH-466. I could send them to you. My email is higgens@futurelnk.net
Please mention something about the 53E in the subject line or I might not open it.
