Star Decals 35-C1391 Ferrets in Cyprus #2. Canadian UNFICYP Ferret Mk 1 and Mk 2 1/35 is a high-quality decal set designed for modelers building 1/35 scale Ferret reconnaissance vehicles operated by Canadians during the UNFICYP peacekeeping mission in Cyprus. This product is especially dedicated to those interested in military topics and vehicles used in United Nations operations in the post-war and modern era.

The Ferret Mk 1 and Mk 2 vehicles are British armored cars produced between 1952 and 1971 and used by many allied countries, including Canada. These versions were utilized within the United Nations Peacekeeping Force in Cyprus (UNFICYP), where from 1964 they supported peacekeeping missions, patrolling the buffer zone between Greek and Turkish-Cypriot forces. The markings provided on the sheet allow you to create several authentic Canadian Ferret paint schemes that operated in the Mediterranean environment during the 1960s and 1970s, featuring the characteristic white UN color scheme.

The Star Decals 35-C1391 set includes a complete water-slide decal sheet, designed with great attention for perfectly replicating historical marking details. The manufacturer has ensured the precision of every element—from registration numbers to UN symbols and details characteristic for the Canadian contingent. The material is a thin decal sheet that reacts well to modeling solutions, making application easy and ensuring high durability and print sharpness.
