Decal Information
This 1-3000 scale waterslide decal reproduces the deck markings for the LHD-3 Kearsarge during that period of time. Customers report that most decals fit Davco ship castings fairly well. Apply over a properly prepared and gloss-coated model surface using normal waterslide-decal techniques.
 
Historical Information

The ships support Marine expeditionary units with helicopters, MV-22 Ospreys, F-35B or AV-8B aircraft as applicable, landing craft, vehicles, and troops.
