Here's a review of a new 1/48 sheet from Twobobs.  

Two aircraft are represented in their new Super Hornet markings.  Enough marking options for two complete jets.

  • F/A-18E VFA-137 CAG Jet from May 2004
  • F/A-18F VFA-154 CAG Jet from June 2005

Recommended Kits:

  • Hasegawa F/A-18E/F
  • Italeri F/A-18E/F
  • Revell F/A-18E/F
  • Decals are sized for the Revell E and Hasegawa F

There is 2 decal sheets included, one main sheet and a smaller one with some stenciling and miscellaneous markings.

 

The decals are beautifully printed, and are clear and sharp.  The white markings are nice and bright. Some of the markings are 2 piece decals, ensuring proper color and registration.  

The VFA-154 decals represent the recently changed CAG jet, which is similar to one of its former F-14As.

Special thanks are given to Ensign Christian Bisher from VFA-137, and Mike Schurb from VFA-154.
