65/70/71 was from the factory. RLM69 was field applied. If you do a desart camo you will see the 70/71 as the greens on the finish. 69 was applied over the factory 70/71 camo.
Only Messerschmitt used RLM 78. It was never field applied.
The only other schemes from Junkers for the Stuka is the Navy Stuka: Ju-87C. It was RLM 63 "light grey" on top and RLM65 on the bottom. But it was never operational.
And the Ju-87A had a 61/62/63 and 65 scheme during the time of the Spanish civil war.

Like Bernndye said. I don't know what all those other crazy colors are, but Stukas were RLM 70 and 71 on top, and 65 on the bottom. That's pretty much it.

Desert colors were RLM 69 sand yellow on top (sometimes with patches of RLM 80 olive) and 78 blue on the belly, though there is some doubt that they were ever painted that way at the factory, rather being repainted in-theater.

Interiors of the cockpit would be RLM 66 black-gray, while other interiors are RLM 02 green-gray primer.

All Stuka's were painted at the factory. RLM 65 "light blue" for the underside. And RLM 71 "Dark Green" and RLM 70 "Black Green" for the upper surfaces. All extra camo was feild applied, RLM 69 "Sand Yellow" for the desert. And the white used for winter schemes was just a whitewash with what ever they could find.

Model Master, Gunze, Polly Scale, and Tamiya all make these colors.
Hope this helps.

Olá Lito,
Você é de outra nacionalidade e está morando em Portugal ou é português mesmo? De qualquer forma, eis os nomes que estão na folha de instruções do kit, são a única referência que tenho.
Those are the names of the paints in the instructions sheet:
Greenish Gray = Grüngrau 67
Metallic Grey = Eisenfarbig 91
Granit Grey = Granitgrau 69
Matt Mouse Grey = Matt Mausgrau 47
The Gunze Paints are more available here, also some Tamiya and Humbrol paints.
Testor just a little.
Grato pela ajuda. Thank you for the help.

Stuka Colors
Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, May 17, 2003 1:19 PM
I need a little help from my friends.
I'm starting to build a Revell Junkers Ju87B, 1/32 scale, I chose to depict the Ju 87B-2, 4./St. G. 77, Bankanfeldzug. But I'm in front of a big problem, at least for me. I would like to know what colors are these: Granit Grey, Greenish Grey, Metallic Grey, or with which other names and brands I can find other equivalent paints to them. The two first colors are the main colors of the camo scheme.
