FAP Green FS 34079 (Fiat G-91, A-7P, Alouette III)

FAP Green FS 34079 (Fiat G-91, A-7P, Alouette III): the Portuguese Air Force's 1980s camouflage green

FAP Green FS 34079 (Fiat G-91, A-7P, Alouette III) is the FS 34079 dark green used on the upper surfaces of Portuguese Air Force Fiat G-91s, A-7P Corsair IIs, Alouette IIIs, Pumas and Cessnas in the 1980s, in the schemes known as E and F. FS 34079 is also the dark green of the US Southeast Asia (SEA) camouflage, so it doubles for Vietnam-era F-4, F-105, A-7 and C-130 subjects. Pair it with FS 30219 tan and the matching underside grey. Water-based and formulated for the airbrush, it covers well and holds soft or hard camouflage demarcations.

The problem with matte finishes

A matte finish hides nothing: fingerprints, uneven coats and gloss patches all show. Spray light, even coats, avoid handling the parts, and finish with a matte or satin clear to keep the sheen consistent.

How to apply

1. Shake the bottle for at least 60 seconds.
2. Prime with a grey primer and let it dry fully.
3. Airbrush straight from the bottle, no thinning needed. Use a 0.2–0.4 mm nozzle at around 20 PSI (1.4 bar) and apply light, cross-hatched coats, letting each one flash off before the next.
4. Let the paint cure overnight before masking, decals or weathering.
5. Seal with a water-based clear: matte or satin to keep the military finish, gloss under decals.
6. Clean the airbrush with water before the paint dries.

Why modelers choose Koloi Aqua

• Ready to spray: no guessing thinning ratios, the same result from every bottle
• Cleans up with water, so there are no strong solvent fumes at the bench
• Fine pigment grind for 1:8 to 1:72 scales, so panel lines and detail stay crisp
• One system: primer, colour and clear designed to work together

Shelf life

Estimated shelf life of more than 12 months when stored tightly closed between +10 °C and +28 °C, away from frost and direct sunlight. Shake well before use; if the paint has thickened or separated and does not remix, do not use it.

The on-screen image is indicative: historical military colours varied between factories, batches and weathering, and the final tone depends on the primer, the number of coats and the clear coat. Keep out of reach of children. Safety Data Sheet available on request.
