AK Interactive RC889 Light Gull Grey FS 16440 17 ml is a professional lacquer-based modeling paint, created for the most demanding modelers seeking both perfect adhesion and the highest quality finish. This product is the result of advanced chemical research, which allowed for the development of a formula that surpasses standard paints available on the modeling market.

The presented color, Light Gull Grey FS 16440, is an iconic American shade of grey used by the U.S. Navy aviation, particularly on US Navy and US Marine Corps aircraft during the Cold War and in modern times, such as the F-4 Phantom II, A-6 Intruder, or F-14 Tomcat. Used since the early 1950s, it is perfect for replicating carrier-based aircraft, as well as helicopter models or other aircraft from that era.
