B58 Hustler

The B-58 is more than the first Mach 2-capable operational supersonic bomber : with its sleek lines,it is a timeless aviation classic. Our latest decal sheet covers the history of B-58 operations at a level of detail and coverage that this magnificent aircraft deserves.

A scaled-down version of our best-selling 1/48 and 1/72 scale products, this decal sheet is designed to fit the Academy 1/144 scale B-58 Hustler kit.

The options on this decal set span the entire career of the B-58, starting from the early evaluation schemes; all the way to both operational and test aircraft from all operator units, and the mythical "Project Bullseye" aircraft.

Extensive stencilling (with common variations of some markings) for two aircraft is included.
