Shyhart Decals has released a decal sheet for a commemorative scheme flown by an F-4F and a Tornado in 2007, celebrating the 50 years of the aeronautical research institute of the German Air Force.

The aircraft were repainted in International Orange and had the German Flag in the nose, rudder and wing tips. The decal sheet provides decals for the German Flag around the nose of both aircraft, but you are directed to mask and paint the rudder and wing tips with the German national colors. There are instructions as to the size of each band and with straight lines, it should be easy to mask using tape.

These two aircraft also wore lots of physics equations in the fuselage and wings, representing all the fluid and aerodynamics research that goes into modern aviation.

This is an on-the-sheet review, so I have not tested the decals themselves, but the decal sheet itself is printed in vivid colors and perfect registry. They seem thin, and they are quite glossy, which likely means they will conform to the surface detail well.

This is an amazing look in both aircraft. They would look great to sitting side by side on your shelf or even in a diorama on a tarmac.

I would like to thank IPMS/USA and Syhart decals for the review sample.
