Hataka Hobby CS27 Falklands Conflict paint set vol.1

The Argentine Air Force (Fuerza Aérea Argentina) took active part in Falklands (Malvinas) Conflict in 1982 using majority of then possessed types of planes. Part of the aircraft (incl. Mirage IIIEAs and IAI Daggers) wore standard camouflage colours (similar to US SEA scheme). At the same time pre-war colours of intensively used IA-58A Pucara ground attack planes of overall semi-matt aluminium were quickly regarded as inappropriate, which led to camouflaging the deployed aircraft in field condition with locally available paints (hence wide variety of schemes and colour tones used).

HTK-CS27 includes standard colours of Argentinean AF planes during the Falklands (Malvinas) conflict. The set contains the following lacquer based paints, optimised for use with airbrush:

•          HTK-C012 - Dark Tan - FS30219, used for upper surfaces of FAA's Mirage IIIEAs, overhauled IAI Daggers, C-130s / KC-130s and CH-47C Chinooks

•          HTK-C021 - Medium Green - FS34102, used for upper surfaces of FAA's Mirage IIIEAs, locally overhauled IAI Daggers and C-130 / KC-130 Herculeses
•          HTK-C039 – Camouflage Grey - FS36622, used for lower surfaces of Mirage IIIEAs, overhauled IAI Daggers, C-130s / KC-130s and A-4Cs ("Andean" camo)
