Star Decals 72-A1062 Peacekeepers in the Middle East #1. UNEF in Suez, Sinai and Gaza 1/72 is a high-quality water slide decal set, designed especially for enthusiasts of historical modeling and 1/72 scale military vehicles. This product allows for precise replication of markings used by the United Nations Emergency Force (UNEF) in Middle Eastern deployments in the areas of the Suez Canal, Sinai Peninsula, and Gaza Strip.

The markings correspond to those seen on Israeli AFVs, including the iconic M51 Super Sherman and M1 Super Sherman tanks used during both the Suez Crisis and the Six-Day War in 1967.
