So, you have your nice Hasegawa 1/72 F-18F kit and no decals? Not a problem with this nice new Superscale sheet.

Both of these subjects are painted in the standard scheme of FS 36320 over 36375; the same as is used in older F-18 repaints.

First is from VFA-41 aboard the USS Ronald Reagan in 2004. This is what we call a 'line jet' in that it has no fancy colors applied.

The second is the CAG bird from VFA-2 aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln in 2004. This one has yellow on the fin tip and a black canopy frame to go along with the nice colors.

There are insignia and data markings for both aircraft. The insignia on the left 'Langley Stripe' is out of register so you'll need to find a replacement to lay over it.
