Hataka HTK-CS05.2 Late US Navy paint set is a professional model paint set developed to replicate realistic colors used on United States Navy aircraft from the World War II era and the early Cold War period. The set contains six acrylic model paints in 17 ml bottles, which precisely match the original colors according to ANA (Army-Navy Aircraft) specifications.

• HTK-C001 – Dark Sea Blue: semi-matt color (ANA 606) for upper surfaces (1944), also used as a general color (ANA 623, gloss) for US Navy carrier aircraft—characteristic from mid-1944 onward.
• HTK-C027 – Intermediate Blue: ANA 608 shade applied to fuselage sides and the vertical stabilizer of American carrier-based aircraft from January 1943 to mid-1944.
• HTK-C049 – Insignia White: perfect reproduction of ANA 601 white (matt) / ANA 511 (gloss), used on lower surfaces of aircraft in 1942–43 and on ASW (anti-submarine warfare) planes.
• HTK-C044 – Dark Gull Grey: ANA 621 grey, applied to the upper surfaces of US Navy aircraft with ASW camouflage after June 1944 in the Atlantic.
• HTK-C048 – Light Gull Grey: ANA 620 grey, used from June 1944 on the fuselage sides of ASW aircraft operating in the Atlantic.
• HTK-C211 – Interior Green: classic ANA 611 green used for painting the interiors of most US Navy aircraft cockpits from that era.

This set makes it possible to faithfully recreate the colors of aircraft such as the Grumman F6F Hellcat, Vought F4U Corsair, Curtiss SB2C Helldiver, or Avenger—icons of US carrier aviation of World War II, particularly during intensive operations in the Pacific and Atlantic (years 1943–1946, World War II period and the start of the Cold War). The country of application was exclusively the United States, and the colors from the set were used during numerous historical operations, e.g., the Battle of the Philippine Sea.

The set falls under the category of water-based acrylic model paints, making it ideal for brush or airbrush application. Hataka prides itself on high pigmentation and excellent adhesion to plastic and resin surfaces. The paints are safe for health, minimize the risk of irritation, and feature a quick drying time.

The product is especially recommended for historical modelers and World War II aviation enthusiasts, as well as collectors of models in 1/72, 1/48, and 1/32 scales who wish to achieve historically accurate US Navy paint schemes. The degree of application difficulty is rated at 1/5—the paints are very easy to use, even for beginning modelers. The quality and completeness of this set make it the basic choice for any US Navy-themed project from the 1940s and 1950s.
