 I believe this sheet is printed by Microscale and it looks great. Extradecal’s sheet has excellent registration with the very narrow white trim around the “Black Arrows” national markings being spot on.

 Four of the subjects are finished in standard Dark Green and Dark Grey disruptive pattern over Aluminium and these belong to 56, 63, 74 and 208 Squadrons. All aircraft feature tastefully done squadron colours and badges. The 12 Squadron Hunter has the same two upper colours but this is a wrap-around scheme with low-viz national and unit markings. Two colourful Hunters are the final subjects offered with one being an all-black Hunter from the famous “Black Arrows” and a sharp-looking trainer from No 4 FTS in Light Aircraft Grey, Signal Red and White.

This is the type of sheet that makes you want to build a model just to use it.
