Söker man lite så får man fram att hela däcket faktiskt är brunaktigt.

"Both deck colors are brown. Some people think that it is either orange or red. It is brown-red. As for most accurate I'll answer that it depends how much time ship spent under the sun. Soviet Navy didn't paint deck often and as result decks on Northern fleet were darker then on ones from Black Sea. That's Soviet paint, guys! That's the answer why nobody sure what is the deck color of Soviet Navy. This information was provided by two of my university fellow classmates. One of them was on DDG Bezuprechny (Sovremenny class) on North and second one on Grisha on Black Sea."

"I used Humbrol paints for my Admiral Panteleev's deck orange. Actually it was a mix of Humbrol #82 and #132 in aprox ratio 3:.

Main deck is more like a rusty brown color. In real life it actually is not painted - its covered with layer of special mixture that contains acid and after apllied on bare metal deck creates oxide. This oxide protects the deck from further corrosion and at same time makes the surface anti-skid like… at least thats what I've heared from a person who served on the ships of this class."

"Soviet deck red/brown is not an exact color. In 1989, two Soviet warships visited San Diego, a Sovremmenny (Sov) and a Udaloy. They were in distinctly different shades of paint. The Sov was much darker grey and had browner decks. The Udaloy was a lighter grey, with a buff tint to it. Udaloy's decks were redder. And this was not a feature of a fresher coat of paint on one than the other - they had both been painted VERY recently. Maybe the colors reflected their different ship classes, different parent squadrons or different fleet ownership (both in the Pacific?), but the fact remains that two ships tied up in San Diego didn't match."
