About product

National insignia of the Soviet Air Force, 1955 pattern, in 1:48 (Begemot)

This decal sheet in 1:48 scale from the Russian manufacturer Begemot offers national insignia of the Soviet Air Force in the form introduced in 1955. This form of the insignia was used until roughly the mid-1970s, so the set covers a whole generation of machines from that period. It is not a kit but a universal accessory for the main types of aircraft and helicopters; it comes in useful everywhere the decals from the box are missing, have aged or have been used on another model.

What the sheet contains

  • national insignia in several size variants for the fuselage, the fin and the wings
  • sheets of decals complemented by printed instructions with a layout of the placement
  • a universal form for aircraft and helicopters of the period in question

Application tips

Varnish the area under the decal with gloss varnish, otherwise silvering is a risk. Cut the emblem out close to the edge of the print, soak it for a few seconds in lukewarm water and leave it to rest on a paper surface. Move it onto the model with a brush, line it up and soak the water away with a cloth. On wings with engraved panel lines a decal softener helps, as it pulls the decal down into the relief. Once dry, fix the whole model with a matte or semi-matte varnish according to the surface the machine is meant to have.

Who the set is for

  • builders of Soviet aviation from the 1950s to the 1970s
  • modelers repairing older kits with yellowed decals
  • those who want to put together their own variants of markings

This is a supplementary decal sheet, not a kit. The model, paints and glue are not included in the package.

FAQ

The form of the insignia introduced in 1955, which was in use until roughly the mid-1970s.

It is not. You are buying a stand-alone decal sheet; the kit has to be obtained separately.

Decals in older kits often yellow or crack. A replacement sheet moreover lets you put together your own variant of markings and have the insignia in exactly the size you want.
