MS406c1 of GCI/3, 1938 From September 1938, all French fighters began to receive a camouflage scheme of pale grey undersides and 'kaki mat' uppersurfaces in place of the varnished aluminium scheme used beforehand. The 3-colour scheme used in WW2 was not introduced until December 1938, although numerous aircraft retained the old khaki scheme well into 1940. The fuselage roundel was not introduced until 13th January 1940, and even then was not systematically used until later. GCI received its first batch of MS406 fighters in May 1938.
