    Default Help, anyone know what this camo is?

    Anyone know what this camo pattern is?

    [url]http://i1.ytimg.com/vi/C2NxwHIDTUA/maxresdefault.jpg[/url]

    I saw it in the 1997 movie The Peacemaker (where this image is from), but I think it was also on some old Micro Machines Military vehicles.

    Any help or advice on how to find out the name or origin?

    Here's a Micro Machine Abrams done in a similar/the same style:

    I've been thinking of painting it on some new models.

    10/31/13 I think I found it: "Europe One" camo!

    Well It looks more like a Hollywood style cammo pattern to me. Maybe using the European NATO camouflage as a base.
    I do know the US Air Force does not have any Eurocopter SA365N helicopters in their fleet.

    As I recall, A-10s in Europe had a similar scheme in the 1980s.

    Similar, but not exact. Too much grey in it to be the NATO European pattern

    THis is Euro-1 applied to a C130:

    I'm guessing that's what they based the scheme off.

    I've heard the camo scheme sometimes referred to as 'lizard' camo, but I don't know the reason why.
