US Navy aircraft colours changed fast in the Second World War, from overall Light Grey through Blue-Grey uppers to the January 1943 tri-colour scheme of Sea Blue, Intermediate Blue and Insignia White. This Real Colors set gathers the shades you need to follow that evolution accurately — essential for carrier- and shore-based US Navy and Marine Corps machines.
