Foxbot 48-053 Decals Flying Revenge: Ilyushin IL-2 (early type), Part I Scale 1:48 for Aircraft Plastic Model Kit

Foxbot 48-053 Waterslide Decals provide eight marking options for the Ilyushin IL-2 early type in 1/48 scale. This sheet is centered on early-production aircraft presentation, with option-specific numbers and insignia that help differentiate individual builds across several service periods.

As an aftermarket accessory for scale model kits, this decal set supports 1/48 aircraft model projects where the finish depends on selecting a specific early IL-2 airframe. It is intended for compatible kits from multiple manufacturers and works best when the chosen airframe is matched to the correct configuration before painting.

This sheet is useful for modelers building early IL-2 variants with different field-applied finishes and unit-level identification details. The set is focused on the main aircraft markings, giving each option a distinct visual direction without turning the product text into a historical narrative.

For modelers: confirm your kit matches an early-type IL-2 layout before choosing an option, especially around airframe details and period finish. Apply the main insignia and aircraft numbers first, then add smaller elements only after checking their placement against the instruction guide.
