JASDF Aggressor schemes are some of the most colorful schemes that you’ll ever see adorn a modern military aircraft and Twobobs has 3 new sheets.  The Japanese truly outdo themselves whenever they decide to pull a jet into the paint barn and the next three sheets are no exception.  

This is the first of the Japanese Aggressor Nyutabaru JASDF Cold Face Killas  three part series decal sheets.  There is one aircraft featured on this decal sheet and that would be plane #12-8076.

12-8076 features a light-blue checker scheme that adorns the entire aircraft.  A full set of stencil data is included for this jet.   

The full color instruction sheet features a full-color placement guide.  There are no photo references on this sheet.  Twobobs has excluded photos before on other sheets when the copyright holder of the photographs could not be contacted.  

All of Twobobs decals are printed by Microscale and feature very thin carrier film and accurate color representation.

These three sheets feature some VERY colorful schemes for the F-15DJ and Twobobs has captured these in all their glory.  I don't know what it is, but Japanese Aggressor aircraft have always fascinated me and as a modeler I'm endlessly in debt to Twobobs and in particular Bob Sanchez for having the contacts and ability to get the info on these planes and produce the product for all of use to get our fix for the planes we love and in my case it is these Japanese aggressor aircraft.  

I was very pleased when the mailman delivered these decals....they are every bit as eye popping as I had hoped.  

The markings are contained on 2 decal sheets and are the beautiful high quality we expect from Twobobs (printed by Microscale).  As usual the paint codes are called out in FS#'s, Testors, Humbrol, Gunze Sangyo, Xtracolor and Xtracrylics.  The instruction sheets are done in the usual full glossy color with 4 view color images showing camo pattern and decal placement.  

These sheets do sell out fast, so if you like 'em....don't delay and buy them while they are in stock.

I would like to thank Twobobs for this review sample.

This sheet is available through the Twobobs website and select US Hobby Shops.  Overseas customers can purchase these from Twobobs site or through Twobobs network of overseas distributors.
