Print Scale 72-046 Decal Spad VII-XVII Scale 1:72 for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 72-046 Waterslide Decals are designed for 1:72 scale aircraft plastic model kits representing the SPAD VII, SPAD XII, and SPAD XIII fighter aircraft. This decal set provides historically researched markings suitable for First World War aviation subjects.

The SPAD family of fighters was widely used by French and Allied air services during World War I and became associated with multiple operational units and individual pilots between 1917 and 1918. The aircraft included in this set reflect different variants, service units, and marking styles typical of late-war fighter aviation.

The decals are printed on thin carrier film to support accurate placement on fabric-covered wings, fuselage panels, and tail surfaces characteristic of WWI biplane fighters. This set is compatible with any 1:72 scale plastic model kit depicting SPAD VII, XII, or XIII aircraft and is recommended for advanced modelers due to the complexity of early aviation markings and multi-surface application.
