Print Scale 72-120 Decal Boulton Paul Defiant Scale 1:72 for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 72-120 Waterslide Decals are designed for 1:72 scale aircraft models representing the Boulton Paul Defiant, a British fighter aircraft developed with a powered turret configuration and operated by the Royal Air Force during the early years of World War II. This decal set provides researched markings suitable for several Defiant airframes used in operational, training, and evaluation roles.

The Boulton Paul Defiant entered service at the beginning of the war and was initially employed as a day and night fighter before being reassigned to alternative duties. Throughout its service life, the Defiant appeared in a variety of camouflage schemes and squadron codes reflecting changing operational requirements and later training assignments.

This decal set allows modelers to accurately reproduce Defiant aircraft from prototype and early production stages through frontline service and later operational training units. The decals are printed on thin carrier film for precise application on the aircraft’s fuselage, wings, and turret surfaces. The set is compatible with any 1:72 scale Boulton Paul Defiant plastic model kit and is recommended for advanced modelers due to the aircraft’s distinctive turret layout and detailed markings.
