This sheet is for the F-18C Hornet and is fitted for the Hasegawa kit. Those wishing to use the Monogram kit should find that decals will fit, though they may need some trimming as apparently, the Monogram kit's fins are a bit on the small side.

The first on is for VFA-82 and the sheet states that this is a 'Commemorative CAG'. The tail codes are for the training squadron, which leads me to believe that the unit has either disestablished or moved on to the F-18E Super Hornet. Interestingly, the aircraft is marked for the USS America.

The other is the CAG bird for VFA-87 and in the markings of Carrier Air Wing 8 from 2005
