A lot of effort went into scratch building all of the add-ons unique to the CV-22B, in addition to all the work needed just to correct the basic V-22 kit to "current" standards.

Currently there are no aftermarket sets to bring the kit up to CV-22B configuration. The decals are a combination of the Italeri CV-22 sheet from the 2008 IPMS show, and Wolfpack Decals' new "choppers galore" (48-004).

The aircraft depicted is one currently assigned to the 71st SOS at Kirtland AFB.
