Description
Pacific Warriors vol.1' and includes markings for three US fighter aircraft operating in the PTO during World War II:

- North-American P-51D-25-NA, Mustang s/n 44-72640, coded '501', flown by Capt. Evelyn Neff of 457th FS / 506th FG, Iwo Jima, late spring / summer 1945.
- Curtiss P-40N Warhawk, s/n unknown, coded '47' and named 'Mary Lou', flown by Lt. David R. Winternitz of 8th FS / 49th FG, New Guinea, after February 14, 1944.
- Lockheed P-38L-5-LO Lightning, s/n 44-26490, coded 'E' and named 'Jean Creamer', flown by Lt. E. T. Johnson of 36th FS / 8th FG, Ie Shima, Ryukyu Islands, late summer 1945.

Illustrations were created by Andrzej Sadlo and Janusz Swiatlon. All depicted aircraft carried attractive nose art. None of these marking options have previously been reproduced in decals. The decals included in the sheet allow for replicating the appearance of the P-51D '501' and P-40N '47' in different periods of their service, in accordance with available reference material.
