Could anyone help with choosing the colours for a mid eighties AAC or RM AH.1?

 

I understand they were black and green, but to be honest, I'm struggling to see them as pure black in most photos. And as for the green, there are just so many shades to choose from and I can't seem to find any paint code. Any help with the rotor blade colours would be great too. I believe they were not black.

 

On a side point, I'm not colour blind, but I do sometimes wonder when my interpretation of colours in photos doesn't always seem to quite tally with the official colour or others descriptions.

Does anyone know if any AH9 OR AH9As ever appeared with 'ROYAL MARINES' titles whilst being used by 847 NAS.

 

I think I've seen an AH9 with 'RM' titles, which is obviously a touched up 'ARMY' title but that's all.

 

I'm thinking not as I believe they tended to take over the helicopters from the previous Army unit who left them behind in theater.

 

Cheers
