Balkan Models has produced a superbly printed sheet that contains numbers as used on Yugoslav aircraft since the end of world war two. The sheet contains a full array of sizes and fonts from the initial type used on US types like the P-47 and F-84 to the larger type 2 as used on most other aircraft. This second type is provided in both black and white and includes a variety of fonts and some that are stencil type. The type 3 and 4 numbers are also in black and white and are those used for serial numbers (the previous sets are more for aircraft numbers).

The instruction sheet contains a listing of which aircraft would be using which size of number. Add this with the other new sheet, BM-7203, and you have what is needed for pretty much any post WWII Yugoslav aircraft.

Thanks to Balkan Models for the review sheet. Ask your local shop to get this one for you when it is available or visit the link.
