Print Scale 72-125 Decal Messerschmitt Me 262 Schwalbe Scale 1:72 for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 72-125 Waterslide Decals are intended for 1:72 scale aircraft plastic model kits representing the Messerschmitt Me 262 “Schwalbe”, the world’s first operational jet-powered fighter aircraft. This decal set allows the modeler to reproduce historically accurate markings associated with Me 262 aircraft used during the final phase of the Second World War.

The Messerschmitt Me 262 entered operational service with the WWII-era German Air Force in 1944 and was employed primarily as a fighter and fighter-bomber. Its introduction marked a significant technological shift in military aviation, although its overall operational impact was limited by production constraints, fuel shortages, and pilot training issues. Aircraft of this type were operated by several WWII-era German Air Force units in Germany and occupied territories during 1944–1945.

This decal set is produced for application on any compatible 1:72 scale Me 262 plastic model kit. The decals are printed on thin carrier film to support precise placement on complex airframe surfaces, including engine nacelles and swept wings. Due to the technical nature of late-war WWII-era German Air Force markings, the set is recommended for experienced modelers.
