This is SB Decals second sheet and continues with the Super Hornet. There are three schemes on this sheet covering VFA-11 and VFA-136. No specific kit is suggested for this sheet so you could use any of the available kits for this one.

First up is the CAG bird from VFA-11. The fins and the canopy surround are Insignia Blue.

This same color is used for the VFA-11 Squadron Commander's plane.

The third options is for an aircraft from VFA-136. This aircraft has an unusually high nose number, indicating it has not yet been assigned to a carrier.

The decal sheet provides the yellow 'shadow' as a separate decal for use on the VFA-11 planes. This will prevent registration problems. There are enough common markings and insignia to build one VFA-11 plane and the VFA-136 option. The sheet provides 'USS Harry Truman' markings but SB Decals neglects to tell us where they go, though I assume it is above the 'Navy' on the rear fuselage. Slime lights, and vent markings will have to come from the kit, though SB Decals has provided wing walk areas and tail hook stripes.

Overall a fine sheet and my thanks to SB Decals for the review sample. You can get yours direct from the link above.
