AK Interactive Real Colors - NATO Black (RC888)

The dark shadow tone at the heart of NATO camouflage. NATO Black is one of the three standard colours introduced for the vehicles and equipment of NATO armies in the 1980s, and it turns up further afield too — in the Republic of Korea Army's four-colour scheme and on USAF aggressor F-16s. It's the tone that gives that European camo its bite.

Best for

• The disruptive black in NATO three-tone camouflage
• Republic of Korea Army four-colour vehicles
• USAF aggressor F-16 schemes

It's a proper camouflage black rather than a dead pure black, so it sits naturally in the scheme and takes highlights without looking chalky.

The tone that sharpens a NATO scheme. Pair it with the matching greens and browns from the AK Real Colors range.
