Soviet AF transport aircraft colors

Please help me with painting of Antonov An-12CUB. I need to know the FS code, could anyone…

Is this camouflage or the white base colour with blue stripes? I’m unable to help you with the F S number, but this may help. About ten or eleven years ago, the Russian Knights display team came to the UK, along with a Large Transport plane. From a distance they all had the same colours applied. But close up, almost every aircraft had a different shade of blue, even the colours of the sunburst on the tailfins were slightly different. Added to which, most of it was hand painted, not sprayed! So if your Cub has the stripes, I suggest that as long as it looks ‘close enough’, it probably will be close enough.

Hello Vassily! Are you talking about Soviet/Russian military An-12’s or Aeroflot? There will be no exact FS match for Russian aircraft, but as soon as I know what marking scheme you want to do, I can help.

Hi Pat!

I meant the military version. I will be happy to receive any related information from you. Thank you for being willing to help.

Regards,
Vassily
