Is this T-62 camo accurate?

hey I am a-thinking of doing a T-62 for the MBT campaign, specifically one in Syrian guise. I was looking thru a reference book,



and saw this particular scheme, which I particularly like due to the patches of gray



But I cannot find any photo references showing this scheme. Is this accurate?

It's the standard Soviet camouflage pattern for desert environment.
See here

The brownish/ green color in the illustration is the standard Soviet green.
