Armée de l'air Jaguar on gulf war'91, undersides color

[Davide Calzolari]

hi all guys

 

Jaguar and some mirage f1 during fight over chad in 80's had a marked wonderful camo of ivoy near white and red brown,but undersides remained in alluminium-in the 1991 gulf war the camo was in some way more modern ,muted/"faded"  as many pictures shown,but i try difficult understand if they had undersides wrap around or if the nm remained over there

 

any help appreciated

The underside remained regular metallic grey.

The underside colour was the normal metallic grey, but on some aircraft the camo colours did extend a small amount onto the undersides.

thnx but that in practice is a monument with a camo shades a little bit different  (interesting because undersides are camouflaged

True, the French Jags have seen a few different desert schemes, but what I was trying to find was a decent underside photo - very hard to find it seems - to show where the silver starts. I thought they were silver underneath regardless of scheme as pylons and undercarriage doors always look to be silver.

 

However - in Iraq it seems they had at least 2 desert schemes being used with different limits to the underside silver too....

 

Anyway... I gave up looking for photos and tried videos. Found this that seems to show the underside is as per the gate guardian above.
