Welcome to FSM kirkriddell.

I’ve seen quite a few done with Tamiya XF-62. I’m not sure how close this is to the “official” shade for Vietnam vehicles, but by the time it’s weathered it’s a different colour anyway.

Model Master Green Drab is what I use to get that dark olive green color straight out of the bottle.
