The actual colour is FS13538, the closest you will get is FS33538 which is insignia yellow. You can find it in the Model Master line as 4721 in Acrylic or 1708 in Enamel. You may be able to match it up with Humbrol
154, or Gunze 329.This site has a number of colour charts and cross reference charts:
