About product

The silver that a dazzling white replaced

The set of eight tones tells the story of the British heavy bombers. It begins with the silver, which the machines carried in the early and trial period and which the Valiants also had during the Egyptian crisis of 1956. From 1957 a matte white layer replaced it, the purpose of which was to reflect heat and light radiation. The prototypes of the canceled TSR2 project carried it too, and later it remained on the lower surfaces of camouflaged machines.

Low-level flying and the Falklands

From the middle of the sixties the bombers changed to attack from low altitudes and with it came a camouflage of the British medium sea gray in shade 637 and a dark green in shade 641. The lower surfaces were covered by the light aircraft gray in shade 627. The dark sea gray in shade 638 is tied to a particular episode, namely to the lower surfaces of the Vulcan machines during the long-range raids in the conflict over the Falklands.

The seventh tone is the beige in shade 389, known as hemp, which in the eighties and nineties was carried by the Victor tankers. The eighth tone, the deep black in shade 642, belongs to the anti-glare panels in front of the cockpit.

  • Eight tones devoted to the British heavy bombers
  • The silver of the early period and the matte white layer from 1957
  • A gray and a green for the camouflage for attack from low altitudes
  • The hemp beige for the tankers of the eighties
  • The black of the anti-glare panels to the British standard

The fifth part of the range is in fact a color chronicle of one era of the Royal Air Force, held within a single package.

FAQ

The trio of British heavy bombers, that is the Valiant, the Vulcan and the Victor, and marginally also the prototypes of a canceled attack project of the sixties.

The matte white layer introduced in 1957 was meant to reflect heat and light radiation. It was a protection of the airframe, not a camouflage.

It is a beige tone which from the eighties was carried on the upper surfaces by machines modified for refueling in flight.

The grays, the green and the black are widespread in the Royal Air Force generally, so they can be used more widely. The silver and the white, however, are tied to one particular era.
