Hornet fans will like this one for F-18 Hornets. The recommended kit for this is by Hasegawa and both are in the very close shades of FS 36320 upper and FS 36375 underside.

First is the CAG bird from VFA-113, one of the first USN Hornet squadrons. The fin is to be painted insignia blue on both sides. Superscale has provided two sets of tail codes so that there is no problem with the blue bleeding through.

The other is the CAG bird from VFA-106. This is an F-18D with full color insignia. There is a full color ribbon for both sides of the fuselage. It is too tall. Modelers should use a steel rule or straight edge, matching up with the black registration marks and trim the decal to size.

A set of stencils is supplied for one of the options.
