Modern British Army & RAF AFV Paint Set 8x17ml Hataka HTK-BS77

Acrylic paint set from the Blue Line series, optimized for brush painting, containing standard colors of British military vehicles used since the 1950s.

After the end of World War II, British forces continued to use the color S.C.C. No. 15 Olive Drab as the basic camouflage color (except in desert areas where Light Stone was used). In 1955, a new color was introduced - No. 24 Deep Bronze Green in a glossy finish. Another significant change occurred in late 1971 when NATO Green became the base color, onto which black camouflage spots (NATO Black) were applied. Operations in the Near and Middle East required the use of desert camouflage, initially based on the color Light Stone, and later (during operations Granby and Telic) also Desert Sand.

The set includes 8 bottles of 17ml with the following colors:

• HTK-B271 BS Deep Bronze Green (BS381C:224) - standard color of British Army vehicles in Europe and the Far East from 1955 to the early 70s.
