I'm trying to finish my BMP-1 for the "Get it done, again" campaign and have the AT-4 missile left to paint. My problem is what colour should it be? I have some reference pics which show it in silver, and others showing it grey or dark green. For an operational missile, what should the colour be?
Thanks,
Grant

I know that silver is a training round.
Black, black-green, and mid-green are warshot SFAIK.
I have seen some other colors on AT-3, but have been told they were experimental. I seem to remember there was a mustard yellow one that supposedly had a chemical warhead...but that it was a experimental design in Iraq or something along those lines.
