I am in the process of painting a 1/6 f16 like the above.I will be using ppg global paint.
Your best bet would be ppg chip book.Look in the interior colors,there are several interior colors that are pretty close,but may require some tinting.I have a few interior colors picked out,but better if you take alook yourself and make your own decision.I was told by ppg rep that they have no cammo paint chips.I will do a search for the FS paint codes into the PPG Access Color Management System if PPG has a formula for these FS codes it will pop up.I will check Mon.

I have the Fed Std. 595 color chip book , and the colors appear to me to be FS 34102 Light Green, FS 33105 Brown and FS 30400 Yellow Sand. These colors are non-specular....no gloss.
Some PPG paint stores regularly mix to Fed 595 colors and have formulas for that type of mix. Many (smaller) PPG stores don't do that work, so they can't. If you use glossy paint, after wet sanding use Flexed 'N' Flat Clear (DCU 2060) to keep the flat look.
I found some PPG standard truck fleet colors (Grays) for my FA-18F that were so close to the Fed Std. 595 colors I couldn't see the difference between the chips. After wet sanding I cleared it with DCU 2060.
Any PPG store can mix the colors by scanning the photo or other type of color sample, and get the mix pretty close to the original color.

Hello,
TwoBobs has the sheet for that plane, it has the paint codes on it. Check out sheet 2.
http://www.twobobs.net/contents/en-u...d=39321.384722
EDIT: well that will not link. It is the decal set 32-001 F-16C Fighting Fulcrums, in 1/32 scale
They have the FS numbers and a cross reference to Model Masters IIRC
