Something that is almost a requirement for modern aircraft is that they be festooned with stencils. Often, the kit decals are lacking in this regard; either in quality or in quantity. This sheet from Eagle Strike is specifically designed for the F-14 Tomcat in the Tactical Paint Scheme. There are sufficient markings to do two full aircraft and include the intake walk areas as well as the 'slime lights'. There are also a number of insignia in different shades of grey to match the aircraft that you are modeling. Instructions are excellent and show exactly where the markings are to be placed.

Overall, a fine sheet that you should seriously consider when doing your next low-viz Tomcat.
