Print Scale 72-129 Decal Westland Lysander Scale 1:72 for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 72-129 Waterslide Decals are designed for 1:72 scale aircraft plastic model kits representing the Westland Lysander, a British army cooperation and liaison aircraft widely used during the Second World War.

The Westland Lysander was developed for reconnaissance, artillery spotting, and communication duties. Although originally intended for conventional battlefield roles, it became especially known for its use in special operations, including clandestine missions, training, and target towing. Its exceptional short take-off and landing performance allowed operations from improvised airstrips in a wide range of environments.

This decal set offers a broad selection of historically documented marking options covering multiple Lysander variants and operators. Aircraft represented include Royal Air Force units, Commonwealth and Allied air forces, Free French aviation, and neutral-country operators. The markings span European, North African, Middle Eastern, and Southeast Asian theatres.

The decals are printed on thin carrier film for precise application and are suitable for accurately recreating both operational and training aircraft from different phases of the war.
