The AK Interactive AK11731 WWII US NAVY ASW AIRCRAFT COLORS acrylic paint set is a professional kit containing three 17 ml colors (3x17 ml), specially designed for modelers recreating US Navy Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) aircraft of the Second World War. Each bottle features a precise dropper-type applicator, ensuring easy dosing and paint-saving both when using a brush and an airbrush.

The set includes the following shades in line with original Federal Standard references:

• AK11884 Dark Gull Grey (FS 36231) – perfect for painting upper and side surfaces, faithfully replicating the colors used on US Navy aircraft.
• AK11866 Light Gull Grey (FS 16440) – a shade intended for camouflage areas and complementing paint schemes of aircraft operating in the Pacific theater.
• AK11868 Insignia White (FS 17875) – standard white for detailing and painting the lower surfaces of wings and fuselages.

This product is ideal for painting models such as the Grumman TBF Avenger, Consolidated PB4Y-1 Liberator, Lockheed PV-1 Ventura, or Curtiss SB2C Helldiver used by the US Navy from 1942 to 1945 during operations in the Pacific and Atlantic theaters. The paints allow for authentic recreation of camouflage patterns typical for naval warfare and anti-submarine operations, making them an essential choice for historical aircraft modelers.

AK Interactive's acrylic formulas are easy to apply, odorless, and fast-drying. They offer excellent coverage and high abrasion resistance once dry. They can be thinned with dedicated thinners or water, which expands the product's versatility. The absence of harmful substances makes them user- and environmentally friendly.

We recommend this set for both beginner and advanced modelers (difficulty level 1/5) who want to achieve an authentic historical effect without time-consuming mixing of shades. It is a reliable choice for building models in 1/72, 1/48, and 1/32 scale representing the legendary US Navy aviation of World War II.
