Try and find out what FS colors are used in the F/A-18's TPS scheme. I dunno if it's changed since the 80's but back then the colors were:
FS 35237 - Blue (Anti-Glare Panel)
FS 36375 - Light Compass Ghost Gray (Upper color)
FS 36495 - Light Gray (Lower color)
The above FS numbers were those used in the F/A-18 TPS scheme during the early to mid or late 80's. I don't know if the scheme has changed since then, and if so what the FS colors may be.
The color names are those called out in the IPMS Color Cross-Reference Guide. (I know, the anti-glare panel isn't "BLUE", but the color
is a 35xxx color, and is a flat blue by FS standards.)
In picking paints to match, I would first go by the FS number. Then by the Mk.1 Eyeball and, lastly, by any name that a particular color may be called out as. Some model & paint manufacturers are notorious for mixing up color names with numbers and vice-versa.
Here's a link for a site that will help you with FS colors:

Even though color values can change from monitor to monitor, the color samples on this site match up pretty closely with the FS 595B fan deck, the basis from which this site was created.
