While Superscale is no longer printing 1/32 sheets, there are still plenty of them out there if one looks. This oldie is on the F-18A/C Hornet. At the time only the Hasegawa F-18A was available in this scale, but now we have a very nice Academy kit that can be backdated if needed to an A model.

First up is an F-18A from VFA-203. This aircraft is in the simplified scheme of FS 36320 over 36375.

Second is an early F-18C from VFA-83. The scheme on this aircraft is FS 35237 over 36375. Both sides of the fins are in FS 36231 with the tips and leading edge markings provided as decals.

Insignia supplied for one aircraft. Data markings will need to come from the kit.
