Nice to see a new 1/72 sheet on the F-4 from Superscale. This one has two nice aircraft in the light gull grey and white scheme. The suggested kit is by Hasegawa, but there are kits from Monogram, Fujimi and others that should work equally as well.
First up is from VMFA-333 during their 1972 cruise aboard the USS America. The wing and tank tips will have to be painted green by the builder. Note that the rudder is not white as is the norm with planes in this scheme.
The other is from VMFA-232 in Japan during 1974. Again, wing and tank tips will have to be painted red to match the tail decal.
There are enough common markings (including walkways) for one of the two planes on the sheet.
