Hataka HTK-AS85 Modern Royal Air Force paint set vol. 4 6x17ml – Acrylic paint set for RAF aircraft models

Hataka HTK-AS85 Modern Royal Air Force paint set vol. 4 is a specialized set of acrylic paints intended for painting models of British aerobatic teams and RAF test aircraft from the 1950s to the present day. The set includes six top-quality acrylic paints, each in a 17 ml bottle, allowing for precise reproduction of historical liveries such as the legendary “Raspberry Ripple” schemes or the colors of the Red Arrows team.

• HTK-A100 – Jet Black / Night – Equivalent to BS381C:642 standard, used as the base color of Hawker Hunter aircraft from the RAF Black Arrows team (No. 111 Squadron RAF).
• HTK-A290 – BS Lemon Yellow – Shade according to BS381C:355, characteristic for Folland Gnat aircraft of the RAF Yellowjacks team, assigned to No. 4 Flying Training School.
• HTK-A291 – BS Cherry Red – Paint in the shade also known as Post Office Red (BS381C:538), used on all Folland Gnat aircraft of the Red Arrows team until 1979.
• HTK-A276 – BS Signal Red – Equivalent to BS381C:537, currently used by the Red Arrows and for stripes on the fuselage, tail, and wing tips in the “Raspberry Ripple” scheme.
• HTK-A101 – Traffic White – Color used for the upper surfaces in the “Raspberry Ripple” scheme (ETPS, A&AEE, RAE aircraft).
• HTK-A292 – BS Oxford Blue – Shade matching BS381C:105, intended for the underside of the fuselage in the “Raspberry Ripple” test schemes.

This paint set is dedicated mainly to aircraft modelers and hobbyists building replicas of aircraft used by British aerobatic teams and test aviation from 1950 to the present. Models such as the Hawker Hunter (Black Arrows), Folland Gnat (Yellowjacks and Red Arrows), or various test types from ETPS, A&AEE and RAE painted with these colors guarantee maximum historical accuracy.

Hataka acrylic paints are characterized by excellent coverage, easy application (brush or airbrush), high abrasion resistance, and quick drying. We recommend this set both to advanced modelers expecting the highest historical detail fidelity as well as intermediate hobbyists looking for ready-to-use color solutions. Application: plastic scale models in 1/72, 1/48, 1/32, and similar.
