Print Scale 72-388 Decal SM-79 in the Spanish Civil War Scale 1:72 for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 72-388 Waterslide Decals are intended for 1:72 scale aircraft models representing the Savoia-Marchetti SM.79 Sparviero operated during the Spanish Civil War. This decal set provides historically researched markings suitable for plastic model kits depicting early operational use of the SM.79 in this conflict.

The Savoia-Marchetti SM.79 was a three-engine Italian aircraft initially developed as a fast bomber and transport. During the Spanish Civil War, the type was employed by Italian units supporting Nationalist forces, operating from bases in Spain and the Balearic Islands. The markings included in this set reflect documented aircraft and units active between 1937 and 1939.

This decal set supports accurate finishing of SM.79 models in 1:72 scale. The decals are printed on thin carrier film to allow precise placement on large fuselage surfaces and engine nacelles. Marked as universal, the set can be applied to any compatible 1:72 scale Savoia-Marchetti SM.79 plastic model kit. Due to the aircraft size and the complexity of period markings, this set is recommended for experienced modelers.
