Montex MM48503 Bristol F.2B RODEN 1/48 Maxi Mask is a precise set of masking templates created by the renowned Polish company Montex, dedicated to the Bristol F.2B Fighter aircraft model in 1/48 scale manufactured by Roden (catalog no. RODEN 1/48). The set is intended for painting the canopy as well as creating national, tactical, and functional markings on plastic models – including all types of RAF roundels, code letters, numbers, chevrons, and other distinguishing markings characteristic of authentic World War I aircraft.

The Bristol F.2B Fighter was a British multi-role fighter aircraft, widely used by the Royal Flying Corps and Royal Air Force primarily during World War I (1917–1926). It took part in numerous operations as both a fighter and a reconnaissance aircraft, earning recognition for its effectiveness, durability, and strong combat performance. After the war, the F.2B was also used by the armed forces of other countries, such as Australia, New Zealand, and the United States.
