I'm preparing Revell's Tornado GR.1 (very good kit) in Gulf war color - any help about sand yellow (British or Federal standard)? It's visible on posted photos that national roundel and tail flag are overpainted. Guess it's done on the battlefield. Anyone knows the reason?

As I know they are painted in FS 30279 color and Italian are painted in lighter version Giallo Sabia.

Thank you very much, No.1!  I've scanned this chip from FS Colour chip set. This is as close as possible accurate considering my scanner and monitor. It may appear different on different monitors, but it's obvious that original paint is darker than same on the posted photos. If anyone does find this scan useful for making profile, feel free to use it.
