Another great sheet for the
Academy F/A-18C from Twobobs! Two aircraft are represented on this
sheet from VFA-25 of Lemoore NAS. They deployed on the USS Abraham
Lincoln in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom.
The first aircraft
164633/400 is the CAG bird and as per your typical VFA-25 CAG jet, it
sports an all black vertical stab with the well known "Fist"
markings. Mission markings are also on this jet and they signify 9
JDAM missions.
A/C 164645/411 was the
busiest jet on this deployment. 28 JDAM misson marks along with 6
JSOW and 2 HARM markings are on this jet. More subdued fist
markings adorn this jet since it's a standard line jet from the
squadron.
Lots of guys helped out with
this sheet and greased the skids for Bob Sanchez to be able to get on
the line and get the photos necessary for this product. Dennis
McGrath of Lemoore NAS Public Affairs as well as some great guys from
VFA-25 themselves.
The decals themselves are
contained on 3 separate sheets (remember this is big ol' 1/32).
You get enough stencils etc to do one of the 2 aircraft featured, which
is just fine.....I can't imagine many people wanting to build 2 of the
1/32 F/A-18C's with similar markings. The decals are so crisp and
clear....ahh the beauty of 1/32.....even the tiniest decal details are
clear.
