Print Scale 72-326 Decal De Havilland Sea Venom Scale 1:72 for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 72-326 Waterslide Decals are designed for 1:72 scale aircraft models of the de Havilland Sea Venom, a carrier-capable jet aircraft operated by naval aviation units during the Cold War period. This decal set provides historically researched service markings suitable for multiple Sea Venom variants used by British and Australian naval forces.

The Sea Venom was developed as an all-weather naval fighter and served aboard aircraft carriers and at shore-based naval air stations. It was operated by the Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm and later by the Royal Australian Navy, fulfilling roles including fleet defense, training, and target towing during its service life.

The decals are printed on thin carrier film to support accurate placement on compact naval jet airframes in 1:72 scale. This set is compatible with 1:72 scale plastic model kits representing the Sea Venom family and is recommended for advanced modelers due to the variety of variants, unit markings, and detailed serial and insignia placement.
