Print Scale 72-370 Decal 1:72 Gloster Javelin Mk-1 Mk-2 Part 1 In the complete set 2 sheets

Print Scale 72-370 Waterslide Decals are intended for 1:72 scale aircraft models of the Gloster Javelin, covering early F(AW) Mk 1 and F(AW) Mk 2 subjects (Part 1). This decal set provides researched markings for Royal Air Force-operated Javelins from the Cold War era, suitable for building specific aircraft identities rather than generic schemes.

The Gloster Javelin was an all-weather interceptor introduced during the early Cold War and operated by several RAF squadrons. Aircraft represented in this set include squadron codes, serials, and service markings associated with UK-based units and training or evaluation establishments.

For modelers, this sheet supports accurate 1:72 Javelin builds with multiple aircraft options and fine-format codes. The set is compatible with any 1:72 Gloster Javelin kit with matching variant features and is recommended for advanced builders due to the density of markings and the need for careful alignment on curved surfaces.
