Print Scale 72-348 Decal Roya Navy Hawker Hunter Scale 1:72 for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 72-348 Waterslide Decals are intended for 1:72 scale aircraft models of the Hawker Hunter operated by the Royal Navy and Fleet Air Arm during the Cold War period. This decal set provides documented marking options suitable for plastic model kits representing two-seat training variants of the Hunter.

The Hawker Hunter T.Mk 8 served in training, evaluation, and liaison roles within Royal Navy aviation from the late 1950s through the 1970s. Aircraft of this type were operated by several Fleet Air Arm units and appeared in a variety of high-visibility and standard training finishes reflecting different roles and timeframes.

The decals are printed on thin carrier film to support precise placement on the Hunter’s fuselage, wings, and tail surfaces, including unit codes, serial numbers, and training markings. This set is compatible with any 1:72 scale plastic model kit representing the Hawker Hunter T.Mk 8 and is recommended for advanced modelers due to the complexity of markings and color demarcations.
