Standard RAL Number 7021 Name Dunkelgrau Swatch #121a1b (estimate, from AK Interactive RAL 7021 Dunkelgrau) RAL is the German colour standard used for most German Army vehicle colours (Dunkelgelb, Olivgrün, Rotbraun and more). Paint makers each mix their own version of a standard colour, and faded or weathered vehicles vary a lot, so expect some difference between brands.
Paints labelled RAL 7021 AK Interactive and AMMO by Mig name these paints for RAL 7021.
