Vivid Olive Drab

RAL 320 35 25 Vivid Olive Drab occupies hue 320, lightness 35, and chroma 25, a bold high-chroma olive-yellow that captures the electric intensity of fresh olive drab canvas and the vivid warmth of sun-dried savanna grass. It is chosen for military vehicle finish coordination, tactical equipment coatings, and adventure brand accent surfaces. The strong chroma at moderate-dark lightness delivers a colour that is both commanding and deeply connected to the natural landscape.
