Print Scale 48-148 Decal 1:48 US NAVY F-4 Phantom MIG fighters in VietNam Part 2 for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 48-148 waterslide decals are made for 1/48 scale models of the McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II in United States Navy service. This set focuses on a carrier-based Phantom marking layout and includes the large airframe identifiers as well as supporting stencil elements shown in the placement guide (scale is 1/48, also written as 1:48).

The F-4 Phantom II was widely used in US Navy carrier aviation during the mid-1960s. Typical external identifiers for this period include tail codes, modex numbers, ship name titles, national insignia, and standard warning/rescue markings applied around the airframe.

For modelers, this sheet helps build a clean, period-correct VF-161 aircraft appearance without mixing elements from different units or deployments. It is intended for use with any compatible 1/48 F-4B / F-4 Phantom II plastic model kit. Due to the amount of placement work (large codes plus stenciling), the set is best suited to experienced builders. Model kit is not included.
