The aircraft scheme is similar to that which the first Puma HC Mk 1 aircraft were painted when they were delivered in 1971 but with several notable differences:
- the engine housing boasts the badges of all the squadrons who have flown the Puma, both as a HC Mk 1 and a HC Mk 2;
- the tail fin is emblazoned with the union flag; and,
- the standard Royal Air Force logo on the cabin door has been replaced with the bespoke Puma 50 logo.
XW224 was due to be repainted this year. In honour of the 50th anniversary of the Puma helicopter in service with the Royal Air Force, it was agreed that a unique new paint scheme would be used on the aircraft.
