Historical Information
This decal set reproduces the national aircraft marking of the Indonesian Air Force, using Indonesia's red-and-white national colors in the distinctive geometric insignia associated with Tentara Nasional Indonesia Angkatan Udara (TNI-AU).
Indonesia's air force developed from the aviation forces of the independence era and inherited a mixed fleet after Dutch sovereignty was transferred. During the early post-independence period the service adopted the red-and-white pentagonal national marking, reflecting both the Indonesian flag colors and the symbolism of Pancasila, the nation's Five Principles.
The insignia has appeared on an unusually diverse range of Western, Soviet and locally produced aircraft, reflecting Indonesia's changing international relationships and procurement history.
Representative Aircraft: P-51 Mustang, B-25 Mitchell, MiG-17, MiG-21, A-4 Skyhawk, F-5E, F-16, Su-27/30, Hawk 200, C-130 and CN-235.
Indonesian aircraft can show differences in marking size and orientation depending on type and era. Consult photographs of the specific aircraft being modeled for the best result.
