21st Century Marder III H ???

Could the first release of the Marder III H with the grey/yellow camo have been seen in Russia in 1941? I didn't know if this camo scheme would have been seen that early on.
Just based on one source, I doubt this Marder S1 vehicle would have this camo in Russia, 1941. Pictures I've seen show only gray vehicles covered with dust and mud, mud that was sometimes smeared on as camo. In winter, whitewash was applied.
Now in spring of 1942 in Russia, gray vehicles with green stripes were seen, so this vehicle painted as it is could date from that period.
