Product Description

──A photo collection of special paintings applied to each squadron of the Air Self-Defense Force, which celebrated its 70th anniversary this year

To mark the 70th anniversary of the founding of the Air Self-Defense Force, special markings will be applied to aircraft in various locations. Aircraft with special markings, which have been applied since the founding, are very popular with fans and attract a lot of attention, and are a highlight when displayed at base festivals and other events.
