VF-213 Last cruise CAG colour


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

 

I'm in the process of building Tamiya's F-14D as the VF-213 CAG jet during the last cruise. The overall paint is listed as Tamiya AS-16 but I can't find the direct FS number for this. My intention was to paint it flat gull grey but this may be a bit dark.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks

 

Dave

The CAG jet? or the Retro jet with the blue skunkstripe/tails?

 

The retro-jet is what comes in the box, the jet was light gull grey. AS-16 is Tamiya's light gull grey approximation (there is no bottle form as I recall), 213's CAG jet was a bog-standard TPS paint scheme I think.

Thanks for the help! Yes the retro jet with the blue detailing (Tamiya mention it as the CAG jet).
