300AC-US-013 - B-29
Unit Markings for SAC Bomber Units in the Korean War
Sheet 300AC-US-013 feature
the aircraft markings as found on bomber units of the U.S. Strategic
Air Force engaged in combat over the Korean combat area during 1950
through 1953. Sheet 300AC-US-011 is used with this decal sheet to
provide the proper national insignia (red bar now included) and air
force title blocks, "USAF" and "United States Air Force". Four
bombardment wings and a reconnaissance squadron of SAC are represented
(two of the four wings would return to the U.S. early due to target
availability - doing a job to well). The lion's share of markings
belong to the longest serving wings, the 98th and 307th with group
tails insignias provided for six aircraft, and a spare set just in
case, for each. Three sets of markings will be found for each of
the remaining two bombardment wings and the recon squadron, the 22nd
and 92nd bombardment wings and the 91st strategic recon squadron.
Completing this water slide decal sheet will be found the individual
aircraft serial number for that specific plane along with the group
emblem or squadron insignia in the case of the 91st, as well as the
insignia for the 15th Air Force. The later is used on several of
the presented airplanes but more have been included for other uses
(other service aircraft, i.e. C-47s, of that command). Placement
of the group insignia on the port side of the aircraft near the cockpit
would be a feature found on SAC aircraft throughout the "Cold War"
period. Each sheet $11.29
