The second Skyknight sheet offers more interesting schemes. Once again, the only kit available (unless you have the ancient Allyn kit), is the recent Czech Models version. Insignia for two if you choose wisely. Stencils can come from the nicely done kit decal sheet.

Once again, we lead off with a gloss sea blue Skyknight, this time from the Fleet All Weather Training Unit Atlantic. Lots of yellow bits with the fin section and wing tips needing to be painted by the modeler.

Another Marine jamming unit is represented by this VMCJ-2 version in light gull grey over white. This one has a large black radome. Leading edges to flight surfaces on this and the next option are in unpainted metal.

The final option is from VMFT(N)-2, the training squadron for Marine Skyknights. It says mid-50s but is probably a bit later as the switch to light gull grey over white was only started around 1956. This one has green wing tips and rudder.
