With the new Revell kit soon to hit the market, this sheet is designed just for that kit. I'm sure you could also use the older Italeri kit or the soon to be released Hasegawa version as well if you so desired. Both planes are in standard super bug colors of FS 36320 over 36375.

First is the VFA-143 aircraft and while ti has a tail code, no ship is given. This unit is one of those that transitioned from the F-14B Tomcat.

The other is from VX-9, a unit that was made by combining VX-4 and VX-9. This has very dark blue fins. Nice to see that political correctness has been overcome and the bunny is back.

Insignia and stencils are provided for both aircraft.
