Afterburner Decals has turned out some impressive decal releases
covering contemporary USAF subjects and this one is no exception.
This release covers the mounts of one USAF Numbered Air Force
Commander, two Wing Commanders and two Group Commanders.
The aircraft presented in this set are:
- F-15C, 85-0111, AK, 11 AF Commander, Elmendorf AFB,
AK, 2007, as flown by Lt Gen Doug Fraser
- F-15C, 85-0093, AK, 3 WG Commander, Elmendorf AFB, FL,
2007, as flown by Col Thomas Tinsley (in 2006 by BG Hawk
Carlisle)
- F-15C, 78-0518, ZZ, 18 WG Commander, Kadena AB, Japan,
2007, as flown by BG Harold Moulton
- F-15C, 80-0012, ZZ, 18 OG Commander, Kadena AB, Japan,
2007, as flown by Col Mark Henkel
- F-15C, 78-0474, ZZ, 18 OG Commander, Kadena AB, Japan,
2006, as flown by Col David Freaney
As you can see in the decal layout, this set provides a nice array
of maintenance stencils in addition to the national markings and
distinctive unit markings. In fact, Afterburner Decals provide
sufficient stencils and markings for two complete aircraft.
According to the instructions, this set was sized for the
Hasegawa 1/48 F-15C kit though you can adapt these to fit any
1/48 scale F-15C.
Definitely recommended!
