Special Hobby M72043 AJ/JA/SF-37 Viggen (Single Seater) Splinter Camo 1/72 is a precise set of modeling masks dedicated to the Swedish Saab Viggen fighter (AJ, JA, SF-37) in the popular 1/72 scale. This product was created for modelers who want to perfectly recreate the characteristic splinter camo—the most recognizable camouflage scheme of Swedish aviation from the Cold War era.

The Swedish Saab 37 Viggen was one of the world’s most modern fighters, designed for the Swedish Air Force at the turn of the 1960s and 1970s and operated until the beginning of the 21st century. It participated in numerous NATO exercises and patrol missions in Scandinavia, forming the backbone of neutral Sweden’s air defense during the Cold War. The splinter camouflage, a regular pattern of broken, geometric shapes in green, black, and greys, provided excellent concealment in Scandinavian woodland conditions and made the Viggen stand out among other fighters worldwide.

The offered mask set, from the "painting masks for scale models" category, is intended for Special Hobby plastic model kits in the single-seater AJ, JA, and SF-37 variants. It is made from high-quality, durable masking film that adheres perfectly to the model’s surface and leaves no residue after removal. This allows for precise reproduction of all the angles and breaks of the camouflage without the need for manually and time-consumingly cutting out each element yourself. The use of masks significantly shortens working time and eliminates the risk of paint bleeding under the tape. The set enables a professional finish for both intermediate and advanced modelers.
