Print Scale 72-474 Decal GrummanEA-6A Intruder Electronic Aggressor Scale 1:72 for Aircraft Plastic model kit

Print Scale 72-474 Waterslide Decals are designed for 1/72 scale models of the Grumman EA-6A electronic warfare aircraft family, with one option also covering the related EA-6B. The sheet focuses on aircraft identifiers such as BuNo, tail/code style markings, and year-specific presentations associated with electronic warfare and training contexts.

The EA-6A was developed from the A-6 Intruder airframe and adapted for electronic warfare roles. Compared with many tactical jets, these aircraft often carried distinctive code-and-number layouts and unit-style identifiers that become the defining elements on a finished 1/72 model.

For modelers, this set is listed as Any / Universal for 1/72 kits. Because the options span multiple years and include both EA-6A and EA-6B references, it’s best to match your chosen subject to the correct airframe variant and external details represented by your kit. The small codes and tight spacing typical of these markings reward careful alignment and sealing, so this sheet is most suitable for experienced builders. Scale note: 1/72 (also written as 1:72).

FAQ

How many marking options are included in Print Scale 72-474?

This set includes five marking options, primarily for EA-6A aircraft, with one EA-6B option also included.

Does this sheet cover both EA-6A and EA-6B?

Yes. Four options are listed as EA-6A subjects and one option is listed as an EA-6B-30-GR subject (VAQ-35, 1992).

What do the BuNo and “GD” codes help represent?

They are identifiers used to distinguish specific aircraft and marking presentations. Using the BuNo and code from the option list helps keep your model tied to a specific subject rather than a generic scheme.

Is this set suitable for any 1/72 kit?

It is listed as Any / Universal, but the best results come from matching your kit to the exact aircraft variant shown in your chosen option (EA-6A vs EA-6B) and comparing the placement guide to your kit’s panel layout.

Why is this set recommended for advanced modelers?

The markings include small codes and precise spacing that benefit from careful positioning and finishing steps such as glossing, setting solutions, and a final clear coat.
