Hataka Hobby HTK-CP07 Late WW2 US Army Air Force (1943-45) – Model Aircraft Paint Set for USAAF Aircraft from 1943-1945

The Hataka Hobby HTK-CP07 paint set is a high-quality paint set created especially for aviation enthusiasts interested in World War II. The set includes three 17 ml paints, each reproducing authentic colors used on United States Army Air Forces aircraft during the final stage of the conflict (1943–1945). These paints are an essential choice for any modeler wishing to faithfully recreate the appearance of historic aircraft from this period.
