Product Details: Everything You Need to Know

This set includes paint masks to replicate the U.S. Army Air Force (USAAF) fuselage and wing insignia in 1/72 scale. This insignia was typically used on U.S. aircraft during WWII between August 1943 and January 1947.

❗ Note:  This set has been updated to use multi-layered masks to achieve accurate multi-color markings. While this approach uses more material, it simplifies alignment and makes application more straightforward and hassle-free.
