Source review notes

The complete exact manufacturer manual has12 genuine paint roles on page15. They are all optional and unchecked because page1 explicitly describes a multicolored kit that can be built without painting. Source completeness must not convert optional painting into compulsory supplies.; All assembly drawings, including hull, stand, propellers, guns, funnels and both aircraft, were inspected. Before page15 their colors show molded kit parts, without extra indexed paint calls. No figure palette or separate interior palette is supplied.; Lifecolor provides a fully readable12-color primary family: UA625, UA621, UA623, UA624, UA047, UA045, LC37, LC02, LC01, LC76, LC74 and LC75. Manufacturer-printed family alternatives are retained as crossreferences only.; Deck Blue Mr.Color cell cannot be certified as365 versus366 in the small native raster. It is retained as an explicitly unverified alternate with no usable exact code; do not map it. This does not block the complete named palette or its fully verified Lifecolor reference family.; Both printed mixtures have no proportions: H54+H55 for Deck Blue and Vallejo965+903 for Sea Blue. They remain optional alternate-family information, never invented1:1 recipes.; FS15042 and FS35164 are literal printed Navy Blue and Intermediate Blue references; no extra paint sheen is inferred where the source has not separately named it.; Painting optional is not glue-free. Cement is explicitly marked at multiple small-gun, rangefinder, funnel, radar and aircraft steps. The stand and other molded colors are not independent required paint purchases.; Catalog title spells Misouri; exact manufacturer source says Missouri. Identity/number/scale match without a catalog text edit. No catalog product photo is available; photograph confirmation cannot be claimed.; Printed paint numbers are black triangular indices with blue arrows; black decal numbers/red placement-order circles and assembly/subassembly part identifiers are not paint calls. Supplied plaque, flags, hull numbers, aircraft insignia and waterline markings are decals/stickers.
