Print Scale 72-258 Decal Top Pilots of Legion Condor Part 1 He-51 Scale 1:72 for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 72-258 Waterslide Decals are designed for 1:72 scale aircraft models representing the Heinkel He 51 fighter aircraft associated with the top pilots of the Legion Condor during the Spanish Civil War period. This decal set provides researched markings suitable for plastic model kits depicting early German military aviation subjects of the late 1930s.

The Heinkel He 51 was a single-seat biplane fighter used by German units during the Spanish Civil War between 1936 and 1939. Aircraft operated by the Legion Condor were primarily employed in evaluation, training, and limited operational roles, making these markings relevant for interwar aviation modeling projects without extending into later World War II contexts.

This decal set is intended for modelers interested in pre-World War II aircraft subjects and early German WWII Air Force-associated service markings. The decals are printed on thin carrier film to support accurate placement on biplane airframes and fabric-covered surfaces. The set is compatible with any 1:72 scale Heinkel He 51 plastic model kit and is recommended for advanced modelers due to the complexity of biplane construction and multi-surface decal application.
