North Korea Changes Color of AN-2 Colt Aircraft

It looks like the North Koreans are trying to make these planes a little bit harder to spot:

North Korea has changed the camouflage colors for the AN-2 low-altitude infiltration aircraft. The belly is now sky blue, the same color as a drone that crashed on Baeknyeong Island last year, and the upper body a pattern of dark green, pale green and red, according to analysis of a South Korean military intelligence agency.

The North has about 300 of the planes.

“The North’s unveiling of the new AN-2 last Wednesday is an apparent threat to infiltrate the South with aircraft carrying special troops,” a military officer here said Sunday.  [Chosun Ilbo]
