Print Scale 72-418 Decal UH-1 In Vietnam War Scale 1:72 for Helicopter Plastic model kit

Print Scale 72-418 Waterslide Decals are designed for 1/72 scale helicopter models of the Bell UH-1 “Huey” as used during the Vietnam War period. This decal set focuses on aircraft-specific identifiers such as U.S. Army serials, unit titles, and markings used by assault helicopter units in Southeast Asia.

The UH-1 family became closely associated with helicopter mobility and support operations of the 1960s–1970s. The options in this sheet represent several UH-1 variants (D, H, and C) and are tied to named units and locations, helping builders depict a documented operational-context finish in a historically neutral way.

For modelers, the set is useful if you want a UH-1 build with a defined airframe identity rather than generic U.S. markings. It is listed as universal for 1/72 UH-1 kits; best results come from selecting a kit variant that matches the chosen option and then applying the serials and small codes carefully. Due to fine text and multiple small items, this set is recommended for experienced builders. Scale: 1/72 (also written as 1:72).

FAQ

Which UH-1 variants are covered in this decal set?

The included options cover UH-1D, UH-1H, and UH-1C variants. Selecting a kit that matches your chosen variant will help the markings look consistent with the airframe.

Are the serial numbers included for each option?

Yes. Each marking option is identified by a U.S. Army serial number, which helps represent a specific helicopter rather than a generic subject.

Can these decals be used with any 1/72 UH-1 kit?

The set is listed as universal for 1/72 scale. Fit and layout can vary between kits, so it is recommended to test placement before final setting solution use.

What helps when applying small lettering and thin codes?

Apply decals over a gloss finish, position the smallest items with fine tweezers, and seal with a clear coat after they are fully dry. Decal setting solutions can be used according to modeler preference.
