Responsibility details are not available.
A decal sheet in 1:72 scale for models of the two-seat training version of the de Havilland Vampire jet in Royal Air Force service. It is an accessory for a kit, not a model. The sheet carries the markings of the machines given on the packaging; it is the first part, with further sheets of the same line following on from it, so compare what the manufacturer gives on the packaging before buying.
The Vampire was one of the first British jet fighters and was marked by a short fuselage nacelle with a pair of booms carrying the tail surfaces. The T.11 version is the two-seat training form with side-by-side seats and a widened canopy. It served to train pilots converting to jets, and with the Royal Air Force it stayed in that role long after the single-seat versions had left squadron service.
The soaking time is the key. Leave the decal in lukewarm water only long enough for it to be slid off the paper, usually a few tens of seconds. If it soaks too long, the adhesive washes out and the film then does not hold on the model. The proven procedure is to lift the decal out of the water before it releases, lay it on the spot together with the paper and only there, after a moment, slide it off with a brush. On the Vampire a lot of the markings are on the tail booms and on the rounded nose, where it is advisable to work in smaller steps and to blot the excess water away with a paper tissue.
This is a decal sheet, that is an accessory. The kit, paints and varnishes are not included in the package.
