Hataka HTK-A017 Dark Green (RLM71) is a high-quality, water-dilutable acrylic paint from the renowned Hobby Red Line series by Hataka Hobby, dedicated to modelers who strive for the highest level of realism in painting historical models. The RLM71 (Dunkelgrün) color is a historic shade, widely used by the German Luftwaffe during World War II, especially for the camouflage of the upper surfaces of aircraft such as the Messerschmitt Bf 109, Heinkel He 111, and Junkers Ju 87 Stuka. RLM71 was used from the late 1930s and throughout the war to paint aircraft fighting on the European and North African fronts.

The Hataka HTK-A017 product has been specially developed for airbrush painting – its optimal consistency ensures even paint application while minimizing the risk of streaks and visible brush marks. Once dry, it provides an exceptionally smooth, satin finish, ideal for further modeling processes such as washing or applying decals. The paint features high coverage, which allows the desired color effect to be achieved with a single coat. It adheres very well to plastic surfaces, but also works great on resin or metal parts of models.
