Hataka HTK-A062 International Orange (FS12197, ANA 508) – acrylic airbrush paint (Red Line)

Hataka HTK-A062 International Orange (FS12197, ANA 508) is a professional water-based acrylic paint from Hataka Hobby’s prestigious Red Line series. This product was developed for modelers seeking realistic colors for the precise recreation of original painting schemes of aircraft models as well as other military and civilian vehicles.

The International Orange shade (FS12197, ANA 508) is characteristic of American aviation – particularly used by the United States Air Force (USAF) and the US Navy. This color was used, among others, on the tails, fuselages, and wings of test and training aircraft, as well as on aircraft designed for high-altitude flights where high visibility was key for mission safety. Examples include iconic machines such as the Lockheed U-2, F-104 Starfighter, or T-33 trainer aircraft, which since the 1950s during the Cold War were painted in this intense, bright orange shade.
