Print Scale 48-188 Decal De Havilland Sea Vixen The complete set 2 leaf Scale 1:48 for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 48-188 waterslide decals are intended for 1/48 scale models of the de Havilland Sea Vixen FAW.2 in Royal Navy service. This complete two-sheet set provides the main unit/airframe identifiers and a separate selection of stencils and deck-handling style markings commonly applied to Fleet Air Arm aircraft (scale is 1/48, also written as 1:48).

The Sea Vixen FAW.2 was a British carrier-capable jet of the Cold War period, recognizable by its twin-boom layout and minimal external markings compared to later eras. The subjects in this set represent different squadron assignments and code styles documented during the 1960s–1970 timeframe.

For modelers, this sheet is useful when you want consistent Royal Navy markings plus the additional “keep off”/walkway-style elements and standard airframe stenciling shown in the guide. It is designed for use with any compatible 1/48 Sea Vixen FAW.2 plastic model kit. Because the set combines prominent codes with numerous small stencil items, it is best suited to experienced builders. Model kit is not included.
