Product overview

Four matt acrylics that are indispensable for painting models of aircraft camouflaged in the US Asia Minor scheme, the finish applied to all Iranian combat aircraft since around 1965 — serving both the Imperial Iranian Air Force (IIAF) and the Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force (IRIAF). It covered the earlier supplied F-86Fs (some delivered to Ethiopia in 1970) and the F-5A/B, F-4D/E and F-14A, and it was also used on Jordanian F-5A/Bs, some of which were sold to Greece in the 1980s.

Set contains (4 × 17 ml): AK11116 Tan Yellow FS 20400, AK11120 Mud Brown FS 30140, AK11346 Forest Green FS 34079, AK11890 Camouflage Grey FS 36622
Matt finish 3rd Generation acrylics for brush and airbrush (for airbrush, dilute with water or AK11500 thinner); made in Spain
AK's own Greek thread: the scheme was also used on Jordanian F-5A/Bs, some of which were sold to Greece in the 1980s — the link to AK11753 Modern Hellenic Air Force Ghost Scheme in this run
The box carries AK's printed "Scale Reduction Factor" mark, as on the rest of the 3GEN AIR range

Notes · Q & A

What's the difference between a paint and a wash?

Paints are opaque colour for coverage; washes are thin, pigmented fluids that flow into recesses to add shading and depth. Most painters use both.

Can I use these paints in an airbrush?

Many acrylics can be thinned for airbrushing — check the product description; ranges marked "Air" or "airbrush-ready" work straight from the bottle.

Do I need a primer?

Yes for bare plastic, resin or metal — primer gives paint a surface to grip and prevents chipping.
