Print Scale 72-098 Decal Dornier Do 17 Scale 1:72 for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 72-098 Waterslide Decals are designed for 1:72 scale aircraft models of the Dornier Do 17, a German twin-engine bomber and reconnaissance aircraft widely used during the early and mid-years of the Second World War. This decal set provides a selection of historically documented marking options representing aircraft operated in several European and Mediterranean theaters.

The Dornier Do 17 family included multiple sub-variants such as the Do 17Z-1, Z-2, and Z-3, as well as closely related export and development versions. Aircraft from this family were operated by WWII-era German Air Force bomber and reconnaissance units and later appeared in service with foreign air arms, resulting in variations in national insignia, unit codes, and camouflage presentation.

This decal set enables modelers to reproduce accurate unit identifiers, individual aircraft codes, and national markings applied to Dornier Do 17 aircraft during different operational periods. The decals are printed on thin carrier film for accurate placement on complex bomber airframes and are recommended for experienced modelers.
