Mirage F.1CR 118-CY Fin Marking Colours?

[Wez]

Can anyone confirm the colours of the markings on the fin of Mirage F.1CR c/n 660 coded 118-CY of ER2/33 as seen in this link?

 

The blue is the standard Mirage Bleu and I think the lighter colour is silver but I'd just like some confirmation.

 

Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi Wez,

 

It seems to be Silver. If you compare it with the undersides, which are Silver, the hue seems to be the same.

It'll be Aluminium, the same colour as the undersides.

Thanks gents, I'd found some more pictures and convinced myself it was silver/aluminium but there was that nagging doubt!

I asked the question to the designer of this peculiar paint scheme, and he answered to me: the stripes are painted in the same color than the belly's one, aluminium !

Thank you Sir!  Just the kind of verification I was hoping for.
