Mod.Luftwaffe Vol.2

Standard colours of German aircraft from 1980s till 1990s

In 1980s three new standard camouflage schemes (this time low-contrast) were introduced onto German military aircraft.

Luftwaffe led the change with introduction of "Norm 83" pattern of RAL6003, RAL7021 and FS34079.

Heeresflieger followed the same colours in Norm 84 scheme (on some types however, like Bo-105, simplified to RAL6003 / RAL7021 only).

Marineflieger was last to introduce the change with Norm 87 scheme of RAL5008, RAL7012 and RAL7009 designed for maritime Tornados (which retained this scheme for some time after transfer to Luftwaffe).

The Orange Line paints are specially formulated lacquer based paints optimised for airbrushing. The product was developed to satisfy needs of all modellers – it is perfect for professional use (application of many semi-transparent layers, gradual building of colours / colour shading, application of very fine lines, etc.), but also very forgiving to beginners. It has significantly limited odour compared to other similar products, hence is more suitable for home use. All colours are highly pigmented and permanent.
