Print Scale 48-235 Decal Lockheed F-80 Shooting Star Part 5 Scale 1:48 for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 48-235 waterslide decals are made for 1/48 scale aircraft models of the Lockheed F-80 Shooting Star.

The F-80 was one of the first operational US jet fighters and remained in frontline use into the early 1950s. Aircraft from this timeframe often carried clear service titles, large tail/wing identifiers, and unit-level artwork that stands out on a natural metal or painted finish.

For modelers, this sheet provides the major identifiers (FT-653 and USAF number 9653), national insignia, and the “Panther Queen” nose art, plus a structured stencil set. It is listed as universal for 1/48 F-80 plastic model kits; careful placement is recommended because the scheme combines large titles with many small stencil items.
