Hi

I'm preparing to build the Italeri Gripen in 1/48th scale, including several
aftermarket detail sets, so i want to do it up right. Can anyone tell me for
sure the camouflage colors used on the airplane by the Swedish Air Force,
and the cockpit & wheel well colors?

Thanks in advance for your help

Bob

FWIW, Twobobs decals is about to release a 1/48 Gripen sheet that should
have plenty of info.
