Print Scale 48-293 Decal F-4B Phantom II. US NAVY VF-84 "Jolly Rogers" Part 2 Scale 1:48

Print Scale 48-293 waterslide decals are designed for 1/48 scale aircraft plastic model kits of the McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II in US Navy VF-84 “Jolly Rogers” style markings (Part 2). The sheet provides unit identifiers, modex-style numbers, and airframe markings intended for carrier-based Phantom II projects from the mid-1960s through the 1970s.

The F-4 Phantom II served as a key carrier fighter in US Navy aviation, and VF-84 became one of the better-known squadrons to operate the type. This set supports a historically grounded look for deck-based Phantom builds where tail markings and codes are central to the finished model.

For modelers, the decals are listed as universal and can be used with any compatible 1/48 F-4 Phantom II kit. Because VF-84 tail markings and carrier air wing codes require precise alignment on the fin and fuselage, this sheet is best suited to experienced builders who prefer working with multi-part markings.

This decal set is part of the Print Scale range and belongs to the Decals and Waterslide Decals categories. It is designed for use with Aircraft Model Kits, including 1/48 scale aircraft kits.

FAQ

Which Phantom II variants are covered in this Part 2 sheet?

This set includes marking options for both the F-4B and F-4J variants of the F-4 Phantom II.

How many specific aircraft options are provided?

Two aircraft marking options are listed: one F-4B (BuNo 151492) and one F-4J (BuNo 152253).

Will these decals work with any 1/48 F-4 Phantom II kit?

The sheet is listed as universal. For the best fit, confirm your kit’s variant details match the chosen option (antenna layout, pylons, and small configuration items can vary between F-4B and F-4J builds).

Is this set suitable for beginners?

This set is generally better for experienced modelers because tail codes and carrier air wing identifiers often involve multiple aligned elements and benefit from careful surface preparation.
