PMA 1/48 2011 RoCAF Mirage 2000-5 Ei Decals
By Winston Gould
PMA Decals has released several decal sheets that focus on Republic of China Air Force (ROCAF) subjects. Sheet PMAD013 covers one ROCAF Mirage 2000-5 Ei aircraft. The instructions show one Mirage 2000-5 Ei in low-visibility markings, However you can build any of the ROCAF Mirage 2000-5 Ei machines with the serial number decals provided. The Mirage 2000-5 is an upgraded Mirage 2000C, with the Mirage 2000-5 Ei equipped to ROCAF specifications. PMA also makes a sheet (PMAD012) for the ROCAF Low-Visibility two-seat Mirage 2000-5 Di.
ROCAF Serial Numbers are on the decal sheet. Low-visibility national markings and stencils are also included for one aircraft. As always, trim close to the decal and test-fit dry.
Comprehensive instructions leave no doubt about placement of the stencils and major squadron markings. Instruction paint color call-outs are for Mr. Color. DXM's shop has an image of the actual plane on the page you can order these decals from.
These markings should fit the Heller, Eduard and Kinetic Mirage 2000 kits. You will have to modify the kits as appropriate for the specific aircraft you are building. I recommend plenty of internet and book research.
