Hi friends
I need help. I am mounting a helicopter HH-65A, in the colors the Coast Guard, but I am in the doubt that color to use. Some pictures the paint seems to be red and in others orange.
Which color correct ?

thanks

The color is called Tangarine by the USCG and it is a very red-orange shade. Testors Model Master Chevy Engine Red is a pretty close match for the red-orange (Tangarine) used on HH-65s. You can also have any automotive paint store mix up some PPG Paints Tangarine to get an exact match.

HeavyArty,

Thanks for information
Do You know the reference in this color catalog FS (federal standard)?
I go see in the ink houses.

HeavyArty,
Good night

I discovered the color on Federal Standard catalogue it is FS12197.
I copied the color and open in the CorelDraw.
I tracked the color with bitmap. I got the color reference Pantone 485C ( solid coated)

Not sure if this is correct, but the closest I can find is the following:

FS12199, Coast Guard Red #40 (Orange)



Good luck.

Yes.
Too I found this reference
Thanks

Sure, I will post
