Mirage IV Color

I'm presently working on the 1/48 Heller Mirage IVA kit No 596, and the instructions show the color scheme to be Heller #'s 7001 and 7030 which when crossed at the Stockholm Site to Humbrol #'s this is Hu-27 and Hu-123, but this wolud make the paint scheme to be seagray and dark seagray over a underside of seagray. Is this possible? Seems like it should be a gray and green mix on the upper surfaces. Is the cross reference from Heller 7030 to Humbrol Hu-123 wrong? Any help will be appreciated.

I rarely put any stock in those company's instructions. The colors would be the French equivalents of British Dark Sea Grey and Dark Green, Humbrol HU164 and HU163. Go to
