Print Scale 72-363 Decal Yakovlev Yak-7 Scale 1:72 for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 72-363 Waterslide Decals are designed for 1:72 scale aircraft plastic model kits representing the Yakovlev Yak-7 fighter, with a focus on the Yak-7B variant operated during the Second World War. This decal set provides a broad selection of historically researched markings suitable for Eastern Front aviation subjects.

The Yakovlev Yak-7 evolved from an advanced trainer into a frontline fighter and was widely used by Soviet air units from 1942 onward. Aircraft included in this set reflect different production series, unit assignments, and field modifications associated with operational use during the 1942–1944 period.

The decals are printed on thin carrier film to support accurate placement on compact single-engine fighter airframes, including fuselage numbers, national insignia, unit markings, and personal inscriptions where applicable. This set is compatible with any 1:72 scale plastic model kit depicting the Yak-7 and is recommended for experienced modelers due to the density and variation of markings.
