The Alpha Jet is a Franco-German jet trainer and light attack aircraft, operated by multiple countries including France, Germany, Belgium, and Portugal. Its debut dates to the mid-1970s, with its peak operational period during the Cold War. The aircraft was widely used, for example, by the French Air Force Armée de l’Air as a training platform and in light combat missions, such as by the Luftwaffe and during various NATO operations.

The Eduard EX429 masks are made from high-quality yellow masking film (the original material used by Eduard), which adheres perfectly to the model's surface and leaves no residue upon removal. They are designed to make painting the cockpit, canopies, and landing gear wheels easier and faster, guaranteeing sharp paint edges and complete protection against accidental smudges on the cockpit interior or canopies.
