Anyone know the correct BS paint number of the 30mm Aden Practice round which is blue.
 
I have a document from the design and development dept R.S.A.F enfield and for the prac 4z it states colour as Turquoise Blue No102 BS381C but i cant find a date on the document.
Hope this is of some use
Regards
Tom
 
Thanks Tom. The Aden has been around a long time since the early 50s and i believe there was a colour change from British to Nato colours. bit like the smoke grenades from Light Brunswick Green to Sea Grean and to Nato Elde nil.
