"Karakorums!"

-exotic K-8s in international service-

( sold out)

The Nanchang K-8 Karakorum is not only the first 100% indigenous Chinese fighter jet that was sold abroad but has also become a major export success of the aspiring Chinese aviation industry. Because of its cheap price, low maintenance costs and, last but not least, the lack of Chinese interest in human rights it has become the weapon of choice for many third world nations. Recently Trumpeter surprised the modelling community when they released their neat little Karakorum. While the kit is cheap, nicely detailed and fits well, its decals are a real drawback. They only depict Chinese and Pakistani versions in the usual trainer schemes and their quality isn't state of the art either. We therefore decided to release this sheet, enabling you to build K-8s in attractive camouflage schemes and with colorful national insignia.

Our sheet features:

-high quality decals printed by Fantasy Printshop

-options for eight different nations (all export users except Pakistan)

-enough stencils to build eight aircraft, with each set of stencils paying attention to the small differences of every single option

-a 12-page booklet with high-quality profiles and extensive historical information

-the Namibian Air Force insignia never done before as a decal
