Print Scale 72-319 Decal De Heviland Venom Scale 1:72 for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 72-319 Waterslide Decals are designed for 1:72 scale aircraft models representing the de Havilland Venom FB.1, an early Cold War British jet fighter-bomber. This decal set provides researched markings suitable for plastic model kits depicting Royal Air Force Venom aircraft operated during the 1950s.

The de Havilland Venom FB.1 entered RAF service as a development of the earlier Vampire and was used primarily in fighter-bomber and ground-attack roles. During the early Cold War period, Venom units operated from bases in the United Kingdom, continental Europe, and overseas stations, adopting distinctive unit markings and presentation schemes that varied by squadron and deployment.

This decal set is intended for modelers focusing on early jet aircraft and Cold War RAF subjects. The decals are printed on thin carrier film to support accurate placement on the Venom’s twin-boom fuselage and external fuel tanks. The set is compatible with any 1:72 scale de Havilland Venom FB.1 plastic model kit and is recommended for advanced modelers due to the complexity of squadron markings and multi-surface application.
