is it known what the Fed.Std colours are of these jets?  I am planning modelling a Philippine FA-50PH.

 

But also a Thailand T-50TH, so any help on the colours is appreciated.

By my Mk I eyeballs, it looks like the FA-50PHs are using the Mod Eagle colors, FS 36251 and FS 36176.  Your eyeballs may come up with a different result! 😉

Later,

Dave

 

P.S.  I have put in an order for the FA-50PH conversion kit, just waiting for the PayPal link to pay for it.  Hopefully soon.

hi Dave

 

Thanks. I saw the same colours stated for the Phillippine FA-50PH. 

 

Still searching for the Thailand T-50TH colours which seem to be different

 

I just took another look at the photo I posted on this thread way back when, and it looks like the external tanks are FS 36375.  They are definitely lighter than the other two camo colors on the PAF aircraft.

Regarding the Philippine FA-50PH the quoted colours  Mod Eagle FS 36251 and FS 36176  look OK.  

 

Regarding Thailand:  I contacted a modeller and IPMS member from Thailand.  It seems there are no specific FS colour standard is used in Thailand. Thai AF aircraft colours may even vary across manufacturers and the wings they are assigned to. This has caused a lot of confusion among even local modellers. 

 

For the Thai T-50TH :   I concluded that approx colours of FS36320 general grey with a darker grey FS36118 looks OK.

Just out of curiosity, any photos of the Thai T-50THs?

I got my order in to docipaul for the FA-50PH conversion this morning.  This should be a fun build, and a lot easier than the Rareplane AJ-2 Savage I'm working on now.  Re: the Thai T-50THs, the colors look like 36118 over 36270, the same as F-16s before they started going to the Have Glass scheme.

My problem is he is doing it through Facebook and I am not now, have never been, and never will be on Facebook.  The conversion set looks nice and the price looks OK as well.  I'll have to bug some of the guys at my club meeting tomorrow night to see about ordering a conversion set for me.

The last I knew he was going to be in the Philippines in August.  I thought he would have been back by now.  Send me a PM and I can help you out further.
