Print Scale 72-085 Decal Blackburn Buccaneer The complete set 1.5 leaf Scale 1:72 for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 72-085 Waterslide Decals are intended for 1:72 scale aircraft models of the Blackburn Buccaneer, focusing on late-service and export variants of this British low-level strike aircraft. This decal set provides historically researched markings suitable for plastic model kits representing Buccaneer aircraft operated by the Royal Air Force, Royal Navy, and export users.

The Blackburn Buccaneer was developed for maritime strike and low-altitude attack missions and remained in service with British and allied air forces into the late Cold War and post–Cold War period. Aircraft covered in this set reflect a range of operational contexts, including UK-based squadrons, overseas deployments, and transitional service markings from the late 1960s through the early 1990s.

The decals are printed on thin carrier film to support accurate placement on the Buccaneer’s large fuselage panels, wings, and vertical tail surfaces. Marked as universal, the set is compatible with any 1:72 scale Blackburn Buccaneer plastic model kit. Due to the number of individual aircraft options and detailed unit markings, this set is recommended for advanced modelers.
