Kopro has a rather large selection of decals that are largely unknown in the US and other places. Several of these are decals that have been offered in their kits, but are usable on pretty much any kit that is the proper scale. This is a 1/48 sheet for two nose art aircraft from the 4th Regiment in 1989. Nose are was pretty rare in Czech service up to this time. I recall this sheet being offered in the old technology back in the very early 1990s and when I ordered one from someplace that I no longer recall, it arrived yellowed!
Well, that is not the case with this sheet as it is fully up to the high standards one expects from modern Czech decal makers. Included is a comprehensive markings placement guide that offers color information for several paint brands. There is insignia for one aircraft and while no data markings are included, you can easily glean those from the kit you are using.
