SA-2 Guideline

Hello everyone, I tried to do a search for this but couldn’t find anything suitable.
I started on Trumpeter’s SA-2 kit (the one on the launcher, not on transport truck), and I want to finish it in the Egyptian/Iraqi desert scheme but don’t know what colour to use. I’m new to modelling but thought that Tamiya’s desert yellow would be too “yellowy” and maybe a paler colour would be better, like a soviet desert BTR kind of shade. Can anyone help me out on this?
Ill try to post a picture to illustrate my point better.
