With the release of the Academy 1/32 F-18C, there are a number of new sheets hitting the markets. This is the first from Eagle Strike and covers two aircraft with 1 1/3 sheets. Both planes are in the usual TPS which consists of FS 36320 upper and 36375 lower surfaces. There are sufficient markings on the sheet to do both planes.

First up is the CAG bird from VFA-204, the River Rattlers out of NAS New Orleans. IT has full color insignia as well as a nice fin design.

The other is a 'normal' F-18C from VFA-105 aboard the USS Enterprise during Operation Desert Fox in 1999. It is in full low-viz markings and carries some mission markings just aft of the canopy. You'll notice that both of these planes have the larger swept back UHF antenna.

The sheet is very well printed by Cartograf in Italy and the instruction sheet carries typical load-out information
