Print Scale 144-008 Decal 1:144 Boeing B-29 Superfortress for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 144-008 Waterslide Decals are designed for 1:144 scale aircraft model kits of the Boeing B-29 Superfortress. This set focuses on post-World War II service-era B-29 and RB-29 aircraft with unit codes, serials, and individual aircraft names recorded in the early 1950s in the Pacific theater.

The Boeing B-29 Superfortress was a long-range heavy bomber that remained in frontline use after WWII, including deployments to Okinawa and mainland Japan. Aircraft from different bombardment and reconnaissance units carried distinctive tail codes, nose art titles, and period-specific national insignia, making the type a standout subject even in compact 1:144 scale.

This decal sheet helps modelers reproduce historically documented identifiers for multiple airframes, including serial numbers, squadron/unit assignments, and location/date context as listed by the manufacturer. The decals are intended for experienced builders due to the number of elements and the precision needed at 1:144 scale.
