Afterburner Decals has turned out some impressive decal releases
covering contemporary US subjects and this one is definitely
no exception. This release provides the data and maintenance
stencils on the Mod Eagle-painted F-15 Eagles. This decal set
is printed several shades of gray to replicate the variations
of markings that were applied in the field or through one of
the depots.
The set provides the markings to replicate the tail numbers
for virtually all of the F-15s from the late A/B models through
all of the C/D models. Interestingly enough, the serials start
with the 1977 year group, which was the last year the F-15A/B
was produced, but you'll need to do a little surgery if you
want to do one of the older year groups.
The decal set provides enough markings to stencil up two complete
aircraft with a few extras here and there. If you use this
set with one of Afterburner Decals' other interesting F-15
sets, you'll really provide that additional visual fidelity
with these stencils.
Definitely recommended!
