This sheet includes 3 F/A-18Cs from VMFA-122. Stencils are included for 2 complete jets. Walkways will have to be painted or sourced from other sets.

The decals are beautifully printed, and are clear and sharp. The large white CAG tail markings are nice and bright. Some decals are 2 part decals for proper registration.

The instruction sheet has painting and marking guidelines and nice reference photos.  Paint codes are called out in FS #'s, Testors MM, Humbrol, Gunze Sangyo and Xtracrylics. 

Very special thanks are given to Wally Van Winkle for the walk around pictures.

Special thanks to Two Bobs for the product sample.
