Standard RLM Number 80 Name Olive Green Swatch #3e473a (estimate, from Vallejo Olive Green RLM80) RLM numbers are the German Air Ministry colours used on Luftwaffe aircraft. Paint makers each mix their own version of a standard colour, and faded or weathered vehicles vary a lot, so expect some difference between brands.
Paints labelled RLM 80 Vallejo and AK Interactive and Mr. Hobby name these paints for RLM 80.
