Tornado Flap Colour(s)

[Grizly]

I'm building Revell's 1/32 Tornado as a 617 Squadron aircraft with the Paragon extended flaps and Xtradecals sheet X006-32 in the two grey scheme. The upper flaps appear to have three shades of grey - that portion of the trailing edge which would normally be exposed when the flaps are retracted  in Dark Sea Grey, a portion of the upper inboard flap and a (middle) strip running the length of the flaps the lighter grey as applied to the portion of the wing that slides into the fuselage glove and the remainder of the flap that is normally concealed when the flaps are retracted in yet another shade of grey that is lighter than the upper Dark Sea Grey but darker than the middle grey strip. See attached. I hope I haven't created mass confusion. Anyway, does anyone know what grey the latter shade is? Is it the lower Dark Camouflage Grey?

Just to note ....that's a Luftwaffe ( MFG ) Tornado.

I'm not 100% sure but I think the middle section is a similar shade to Medium Sea Grey on RAF birds and the other areas are the same as the top camouflage .
