Mind: this item is a decal sheet that serves to decorate a scalemodel. The scalemodel is not included and needs to be ordered separately.
The second sheet in Caracal's "The Early Years" series covers a wide variety of prototype/FSD Hornets from the early, exciting years of F-18 development.
They provide markings for jets that took part in critical stages such as spin testing, weapons tests, and carrier trials. The wide selection of markings are supplemented by crew and mission markings when appropriate, different carrier name options, and enough decals for those ubiquitous photo-calibration stickers that could be seen on all FSD Hornets.
The instruction sheet has information on what modifications are needed for your prototype Hornet project, making it easier to build an F-18 that will be really different from the many others on the contest table.
The options on this decal sheet are:
- F-18A #2 BuNo. 160776
- F-18A #3 BuNo. 160777 (carrier trials aircraft)
- F-18A #4 BuNo. 160778
