LFirth Hi, Testor Model Master has FS36251 it's called Navy Aggressor Gray. Being an Eagle Keeper myself , I know it's a match. They also have the FS36176 calling it FS Dark Gray F-15. I hope i've been helpful. Bob

if you say canadian voodoo gray is similar, you ca use it as the basic color.
It's all about color mixing.

I did mine superiority blue, it took some while to do, but finally with the modellers instinct (and lots of good pictures) you get the job done.
I always mix colors, and cannot rely on all FS numbers.
Some of them (the F16) were also incorrect. The darker grey is like an sharky one.
Looking at pictures, most eagles (desert storm) got sunburned. They got more purple, but that is once the picture have been taken with no sunblocks!

Just find your neutral photo, and go from here.

Mod Eagle colors

Ghost grays on F-15 Eagles are becoming a thing of the past. The new camo colors are a little bit darker than the ghosts. I have found that the new colors are FS36176 for the darker shade and FS36521 for the lighter shade. Yet FS 36176 is the only color available. According to Tamiya the shade can be replicated by mixing sky blue, sky grey, purple and white. What a pain!!! Is there no other pre-mixed color available for that shade of gray? Canadian Voodoo gray is similar (FS36515). Anybody have any ideas on what would be the best color to use? Lenny.
