Developed with exceptional attention to detail, this Montex set opens up new possibilities for recreating historical aircraft features, allowing you to create glazing and markings based on authentic patterns historically used.

Historical Context: The Curtiss P-40E Warhawk aircraft was produced in the United States and used extensively during World War II (1939–1945), mainly by the air forces of the USA, United Kingdom, USSR, China, Australia, and many other Allies. It took part in combat in the North African front and the Pacific, among others. Realistic reproduction of markings and details is essential for capturing the spirit of this historic machine, which is exactly what this Montex mask set enables.

• The adhesive ensures proper adhesion, does not deform the masks even on curved surfaces, and does not peel off the paint.
• Masks for canopy frames both outside and inside – a worldwide innovative solution.
• Stencils for national, tactical, and functional markings, designed based on original decals and photographs of P-40E aircraft.
• Color drawings in four views make the correct placement of markings easier.
