Standard RAL Number 7028 Name Dunkelgelb Initial Swatch #8f8356 (estimate, from AK Interactive RAL 7028 Dunkelgelb (Initial)) 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.
