Begemot Decals is an interesting decal company from Rostov-on-Don, Russia that offers a nice array of markings for Russian-built aircraft. In this release, Begemot releases a Sukhoi superset previously released in 1/48 scale for the Trumpeter 1/48 Su-24 Fencer. In this set, there are 55 different aircraft portrayed here and it takes four sheets of decals to accomplish this feat. Let's take a look at the subjects covered:

As you can see, this decal set provides a wide variety of national Air Forces as well as some interesting markings for the Trumpeter kit, including three sharkmouthed Fencers. If you have the kit (or are considering adding one to your collection), then this is the decal set you'll need to bring it to life!
