Print Scale 72-442 Decal 1:72 Record-Breaking F-100 Super Sabre The complete set 1.5 leaf

Print Scale 72-442 waterslide decals are designed for 1/72 scale aircraft models of the North American F-100 Super Sabre, focused on well-documented U.S. Air Force aircraft associated with Cold War-era speed and distance record activities. This complete set (1.5 sheets) provides distinctive markings for specific F-100 airframes connected to measured-course flights, trophy race participation, and commemorative long-distance events.

The F-100 Super Sabre was an early supersonic jet fighter family, and several aircraft received unique titles, serial presentation, and special markings when prepared for record-related flights or public demonstration purposes. In 1/72 scale, those large titles and serials are a defining feature on the fuselage and fin, so consistent decal sizing and alignment helps the finished model look accurate and intentional.

For modelers, this set is useful if you want an F-100 build that stands out from standard squadron line aircraft while still staying within a factual, documented context. It is listed as universal, so it can be used with compatible 1/72 F-100 kits that match the relevant variant (F-100C or F-100F). Because these schemes often involve prominent lettering and careful placement across panel lines and curved surfaces, this set is generally more comfortable for intermediate and advanced builders.

FAQ

Which F-100 variants are supported by this decal set?

The included options cover both F-100C and F-100F aircraft. For best results, match the option to a kit that represents the correct variant details.

Are the markings intended for standard squadron line aircraft?

The options are presented as aircraft associated with record-related or special-purpose flights and events, with titles and identifiers that differ from typical day-to-day squadron finishes.

Will these decals work with any 1/72 F-100 kit?

The set is listed as universal. Best results are expected on 1/72 kits with standard F-100C/F-100F dimensions and typical placement areas for serials, titles, and fin markings.

What helps with applying large titles and serials cleanly?

A smooth gloss base coat, careful alignment, and applying large markings before small details can improve placement. Standard waterslide decal methods and optional setting solutions may be used according to modeler preference.
