  one thing you can do, is to mix the colour until you get the rough colour you want. I will try to find the actual colour scheme for you.
  
  Most US chinooks are olive drabs. Of course there is always the case where the manufacturer's paint may not seem to match.

  Fokker 50MPA Enforcer Mk2
  BAC 167 Strikemaster Mk84
  Lockheed T-33A-1
  Hawker Hunter F74S
  AS-332M1 Super Puma - Italeri IT0002
  C-130 - Italeri IT0015
  
  F-14A Tomcat
  SR71-A Blackbird
  Apache
  
  there one im not sure have anot is the KC-135 stratortanker

  Hi Unidentified, if you want AS332M-1 you should get Italeri 096 not 002. 002 is an AS332B
  
  Any preferred scale of the above list?
  
  BTW for the paint, never trust the colour on the bottle cap. Its always wildly inaccurate. And yes, our Chinooks are in the US Army Olive Drab.

  In RSAF context, Cougar has more chin blade antennas IIRC. Thats the main external difference I think. Otherwise in Eurocopter context, Cougar is the military model, while Super P is the civilian equivalent.

  1/144 E-2C is by Revell, 1/72 is by Fujimi. BTW, Fujimi has 2 E-2C Hawkeye kits. Their 1st is an old kit, not so much detail. Their newer kit is an updated version, much better. To tell the 2 apart, check the box sides, should have a price. The newer kit has the Japanese price of 2000 yen.

  one of them is the screw top version. the other is the 50th anniversary version.

  Nope. You have to assemble it yourself. I think the screw tyop version is cheaper. You will have to take a look.
  
  Chinook rotor blades look like flat black. Martin can comfirm?
