A set of decals in 1:48 for the Polish PZL.23B light bomber, four machines of the Romanian 73rd Squadron of the years 1941 and 1942.
Responsibility details are not available.
The PZL.23B was a single-engine high-wing monoplane with fixed landing gear, meant for light bombing and reconnaissance. The Polish Air Force entered September 1939 with it as its most numerous combat type, only against modern fighters it stood no chance. It got its nickname from a small freshwater fish and stayed in memory mainly thanks to the low-level attacks on advancing columns that cost the crews heavily.
The machines that withdrew across the southern border in September 1939 were taken over by the Romanian Air Force and deployed on the Eastern Front. It is precisely this stage that the sheet covers: all four variants belong to the 73rd Squadron and carry the fuselage numbers 3, 12, 13 and 17. Two are dated September 1941, two more the year 1942, by then with a note about operating over the territory of the Soviet Union. Anyone building a Polish machine therefore gets a less usual alternative to the home markings of 1939.
First clear-coat the areas under the motifs with a glossy layer. A matte finish has a microscopically broken surface, the film will not settle onto it across its whole area and a silvery veil will stay under the decal. Once the gloss has dried, work with lukewarm water and move the motif only at the moment when it releases from the paper of its own accord.
