This latest sheet from Superscale covers a nice pair of F-16s from ANG units. Both are in the simplified scheme of two greys, FS-36118 upper and 36270 undersides. The sheet provides insignia for both options and enough data markings to do one plane. The recommended kit is, of course, the Tamiya F-16C/N kit, though you could easily use any other 1/48 F-16 with perhaps a conversion depending on which one you choose to model.
You see, the 125 FS aircraft with the Oklahoma ANG is a small mouth version and that is what comes in most kits.
The other is a large mouth plane from the 124 FS, Iowa ANG out of Des Moines. This will also need to have the different afterburner petals from the small mouth aircraft.
As with other new Superscale sheets, these markings are superbly printed by Cartograf in Italy and will make for a great presentation.
