Print Scale 72-339 Waterslide Decals are designed for 1:72 scale aircraft models representing the Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress known by the individual aircraft name “Veni, Vidi, Vici”. This decal set provides researched markings suitable for plastic model kits depicting a United States Army Air Forces heavy bomber operated during the Second World War.

The Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress was a four-engine heavy bomber widely used by the USAAF in the European theatre. Aircraft assigned to bomber groups based in the United Kingdom operated on long-range missions during 1943–1944. Individual aircraft often carried distinctive nose art and unit markings that allow modelers to represent specific airframes within historically documented service periods.

This decal set is intended for modelers focusing on WWII heavy bomber subjects and accurate unit-level markings. The decals are printed on thin carrier film to support precise application on the B-17’s large fuselage, tail surfaces, and engine nacelles. The set is compatible with any 1:72 scale Boeing B-17 plastic model kit and is recommended for advanced modelers due to the aircraft’s size and extensive marking layout.
