NOTES:

 

Wolfpak Decals' latest sheet has a few more modern types than the norm and this one is all jets. There are five options provided on this sheet and you'll need quite a bit of grey paint for most of these.

First up is a VF-103 'Sluggers' F-14B in the markings it wore prior to becoming the new 'Jolly Rogers'. This one has 'Flir Cat' nose art as the aircraft carried a LANTRIN pod.

Next, an A-10C from the 354th FS based at Incirlik during 2017. It has the required mission markings on the nose.

A VFA-113 'Stingers' F-18E is next. This one was aboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt in 2018 and also carries mission markings. As the CAG bird it has some color in it that the standard line bird wouldn't have. I'd use the Academy kit for this one as the Hasegawa offering requires some resin bits to bring it up to current standards.

The F-105B was with the New Jersy ANG in 1981. There were not many B model aircraft produced and so there were only enough for two ANG units; New Jersey and DC. To my knowledge only the very old Hasegawa kit was done as a B.

Finally, a JA-37 Viggen from F 16 wing in 2003. This one is named Petter Gul and has some rather flamboyant markings on it in black over the standard camouflage.

I know I've said this before and I'll say it again. 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. Visit them at their web site and pick up yours.
