Good evening, while browsing to find photos of the UH-1E US NAVY, I came across these photos which portray the helicopter in a light gray shade. But it seems strange to me that one colored in light grey, can you tell me does it help to understand? Thank you

Should be either Field Green or Engine Gray.  Maybe just extremely faded as it sat in the sun at Pensacola?  It started life as a USMC UH-1E, transferred to the Navy, converted to UH-1L, even doing duty at UNTPS.

Thanks for the reply, but not to question what you told me, but it seems strange to me that only the dark color fades while the writing and the yellow of the tail remains in the same shade.
Would the gray be 16076 or another shade?
Thanks for your time
