This is the second sheet for 1/32 F-18s and like all the Hornet sheets is more than a single sheet, this one being about 1 2/3 sheets. Also like the rest of the series, there are full markings for both aircraft. That means you have to spend $320 (Retail) on Academy kits to do both sets of markings!

First is the CAG bird from VFA-83 aboard the USS Washington during 1996. As with the other sheet, there are fuel tank decals for two tanks should you equip your aircraft with that layout.

The other is from VFA-81 aboard the USS Washington in June of 2001. It is also the CAG bird and unlike its VFA-83 companion, has full color insignia. Both of these planes have the smaller UHF dorsal antenna.
