Matco seems a bit behind the times. MIL-H-83282 is synthetic, and has a
much higher flash point (458F) than dino-based MIL-H-5606 (219F). This
makes it less likely to set your bird on fire should you have a brake
problem. It's also red, and is compatible with MIL-H-5606 fluid and
seals. Cleveland's tech manual specifies either Mil-H-5606 or
Mil-H-83282 as acceptable. Personally, I wouldn't use anything but
Mil-H-83282.

Where is a good source for the Mil-H-83282 brake fluid?
