This month's batch of new Superscale 1/72 sheets starts off with a couple of nice Hornets. Though the VFA-113 markings have been done in a kit boxing, these are just so much nicer to use! As with the other Hornet on the sheet, the colors are the simplified scheme of FS36320 over FS 36375 with a tan radome tip. This Hornet is shown as attached to the USS Abraham Lincoln.

Rare it is to find a twin seat set of markings, but this next plane is a later build F-18B with the West Coast training squadron, VFA-125, based at LeMoore, CA. Both of these markings have been sized to the Hasegawa kit, though I see no reason why they shouldn't also fit Hornet kits in this scale.

It appears that there are enough markings to do both aircraft, which is quite nice. As always, Superscale provides good data placement information.
