AK Interactive RC966 RAF Middle Stone 17 ml is a high-quality lacquer-based modeling paint designed primarily for demanding aircraft and military modelers who expect not only authentic color reproduction, but also excellent application and durability of the final effect. This product stands out thanks to an advanced chemical formula, developed specifically by the renowned AK Interactive brand, making it one of the best choices in its category.

The paint designated with code RC966 is a precisely reconstructed RAF Middle Stone shade, used by the British Royal Air Force during World War II for painting aircraft operating in North Africa and the Middle East. The RAF Middle Stone color complemented the distinctive Royal Air Force desert camouflage patterns, particularly visible on aircraft such as the Supermarine Spitfire, Hawker Hurricane, Curtiss P-40, or Vickers Wellington bombers. This camouflage was widely used from 1940 to 1943, which was the key period of the North African Campaign during World War II. The color’s accuracy in both shade and coverage has been confirmed by comparisons with historical color samples.
