AK Interactive 3rd Gen Acrylic RLM 79 (1942) (AK11833)

By late 1941 the Reich Air Ministry decided the original RLM 79 was running too yellow, so this darker, browner respray became the standard desert sand from 1942 onward. If your subject saw action after the switch, this is the shade to reach for over the earlier version.

Best for

• 1942-45 North African and Mediterranean desert schemes
• Base coat for RLM 80 olive green mottling on later tropical builds
• Brush or airbrush application straight from the dropper bottle

Match your build's date to the right RLM 79 and the desert camouflage holds up to close scrutiny.
