NOTES:

 

 

For their next offering, Wolfpak Decals provides a nice selection of modern stuff with one old-timer in there to add interest. There are six options with this one.

Starting with the old timer, we have an F-4B from VF-102 aboard the USS Enterprise in 1962.  Note that the ejections triangles are the wrong color (they should be white) and an addendum is coming. Many of us wish these colorful schemes were still the norm, but alas, they are not so we have to deal with greys.

Speaking of greys, we have an F-16CM from the 112 FS Ohio ANG based at Toledo MAP in July of 2016. This one carries the new dark grey, which on this sheet is listed as FS 36170.

Next, an F-35A from the 62 FS, a training squadron at Luke AFB. This one is from September of 2016

Then we have two F-22As. Both of these are from the 95th FS on a deployment to RAF Lakenheath in April of 2016. One i the commander's plane and the other a standard line aircraft.

Finally, an EF-18G of VAQ-132 'Scorpions' in 2011. This one is somewhat unique with the desert colors on the inside and outside of the fin. This one also has mission marks on the nose.

 We are fortunate that there are a number of nice kits for all these options; some old and some quite new. Whichever you choose, you can be sure that the decals are superbly printed by Fantasy Printshop and the sheet comes with the best background information provided by any sheet in the business. Upper views are provided for the planes that require it.  Note that the Fantasy Printshop decals are quite glossy so you may want to clear coat some of these with a matte once they have been applied.

Thanks to WolfPak Decals for the review sample and the image of all the options as their cover sheets are too long for my scanner. Visit them at their web site and pick up yours.
