      The thing is, a pink submarine, the USS Sea Tiger was a plot point in Operation Petticoat (1953, borrowing heavily from actual WWII US Navy antics), due to primer being pink, and the Sea Tiger was deployed in a hurry so there wasn’t enough time to paint it.

      So to get a pink tank, you can just paint it with pink primer, or choose to paint it a non-regular color (e.g. dayglow pink) for parade purposes. Or to haze the brass, if you dare.

      If it needs to be deployed early, it’ll still shoot straight and punch holes in the enemy real good.
