NOTES:

 

Another great sheet with superb options from past and present. This includes some pretty big ones.

First is an overall ADC grey OV-10A with the 549th CTS based at Patrick AFB in 1980. This was the training unit for Bronco pilots and crews.

The Strike Eagle is a 2017 option and based with the 389th FS at Mountain Home, ID. This plane was carrying the Sniper pod.

A nice RF-4C from the 15th TRS in 1982 is next. This unit was based at Kadena AB. Note that it carries a HIAC pod, which means no inner wing pylons were carried.

Another 2017 offering is this A-29 Tucano that is with the 3rd Air Wing of the Afghan Air Force. The US has been supplying Tucanos to several nations as they are easy to fly, easy to maintain, and are excellent COIN aircraft.

Finally, we have a pair of B-50s. Both are in unpainted mtal with the lower fuselage in corrogard.

First is an RB-50F with the 1370 PMW, based at Turner AFB in Georgia during 1963. This was a photo mapping unit.

The other is a WB-50D with the 55th WRS based at Yokota AB in 1950. Unlike the previous option, this one has a white top and a rather unusual looking device on the upper fuselage.

The instructions are the best in the business and you are provided with a list of kits and upgrade bits required. The decals are superbly printed by Fantasy Printshop.

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.
