this is a realistic camo in that it has been used, however im not sure if its still used. maybe a marine can chime in?

From the grave... but the reference pic isn't the same helicopter FYI. I'm no expert but from a lot of researching all photos of the AH-1Z use the plain grey coloring, while I have found a few of the older AH-1's using that camo scheme. Props for the sweet skin though.

*EDIT*
Did a little more digging. They are Sea Cobras, a few differences but I'm guessing the Marines painted them those colors for naval operations. Found a pic and they painted the Sea Knight's that color also.


Also found a video in which you can see where they painted over the camo with the new grey, looks like they 1 coated them for desert operations in Desert Storm.

From every picture I've seen of Cobras on exercises with Australia and Malaysia etc, its always been in the default light grey colour and not this one. Check DVIDS or something for Cobra pictures, it would have the most up to date pics. Either way this seems a little tacky and unrealistic, although it is a good quality job.
