AK Interactive AK11824 RLM 73 – AIR 17ml

AK Interactive AK11824 RLM 73 – AIR 17ml is a high-quality third-generation acrylic paint designed for the most demanding aircraft modelers. The RLM 73 (Dunkelgrün) color from this series has been prepared with utmost precision to reflect the original shade used by the Luftwaffe during World War II. The paint has been developed based on historical sources to best capture the camouflage specifics and finish details of German military aircraft used on the fronts between 1939-1945, such as the Messerschmitt Bf 109, Heinkel He 111, and Junkers Ju 88.

The RLM 73 version found particular use for painting aircraft operating over the North Sea and the Baltic. The dark green shade worked perfectly during flights over forested and watery areas, masking the silhouette of the aircraft from the enemy’s sight. The paint’s formula was specially developed for perfect coverage both with brush and airbrush application, significantly improving the comfort and precision of the modeler’s work.
