ΔE 11.5, fair: the same colour family, but not a straight swap. Dark Gunmetal is more muted than Iridescent Purple/Green. They are different kinds of paint: Tamiya Iridescent Purple/Green is a pearl paint and Vallejo Dark Gunmetal is a metallic, so they won’t behave the same on the model even where the colour is close.
Only where an exact match doesn’t matter, such as a new unit or a highlight. Fair match (ΔE 11). Dark Gunmetal is more muted than Iridescent Purple/Green. They are different kinds of paint.
The same difference applies the other way round: Iridescent Purple/Green is more saturated.
ΔE is the colour difference between our two swatch estimates: under about 6 is close, over about 15 is loose. Real paints also differ in finish, coverage and how they thin, so test before you commit.
