--------------------

Two complete aircraft are represented on this sheet, both from the New Orleans ANG.  These aircraft were deployed to Bagram, Afghanistan and flew ground support strikes during Operation Enduring Freedom.

The first aircraft is aircraft  #111 and features some tusks and Osama Bin Laden nose art that were applied the folks at the "Cajuns".

The second aircraft is aircraft # 093 and features the Let's Roll nose art that has populated many of the modern AF military aircraft recently. 

Two complete sets of stencil data for these aircraft from Operation Enduring Freedom. 

The Two Bobs asked me to give special thanks to Gary Bayer from Aviano, Italy for his help in gathering references for this sheet!

 

The decals are quite interesting.  there is an insert (not shown) of the Let's Roll artwork applied to many military aircraft after the 9-11 attacks.  There are enough stencil decals etc included to make up both of these A-10's.  The nose artwork for the first aircraft is quite amusing.  The special "Let's Roll" decal is beautifully done.

The decals are beautifully printed and the 2 pages of colour instruction sheets are easy to follow.

This is a very good sheet and is sure to catch the attention of the A-10 builders.

I highly recommend this decal sheet to anyone wanting to build an A-10 that served in Afghanistan.
