Hello all,

Does anyone know what colour one would use for Republic of Korea Navy/South Korean Navy grey?

Some might guess it might because this could be for the new Academy 1/700 ROKS Dokdo assault ship. But since that kit already comes with multi-colour parts, they are only partially right.

I actually am asking since I just received a 3d-printed 1/700 South Korean frigate Incheon that I ordered from Shapeways, and was wondering what shade of grey the ROKN uses.

I am assuming it's not like JMSDF or the PLA-N, but perhaps a overall, lighter (perhaps a hint of bluish?) grey for the hull/superstructures from pictures I see of the Sejong the Great class AEGIS DDGs I see in online searches. It's probably not as light as the PLA-N grey.

Here's another pic that shows the contrast between South Korean warships' grey and the USS Blue Ridge:
