CAM Decals has changed owners, and the decal line is not only intact, it continues to expand. This is one of the 'Pro Series' which has been developed by the new ownership.

In this release, CAM Decals has produced a very nice set of markings to replicate a US Marine Corps F-4J Phantom II that was part of Carrier Air Wing 17 aboard the Forrestal in 1976. The aircraft in question is:

  • F-4J, 153778, VMFA-451 Warlords, AA/202, USS Forrestal, 1976, '1776=1976'

As you can see in the decal layout, this set doesn't waste any space and provides all of the distinctive markings, national markings, and many of the more visible maintenance stencils and warning markings for this colorful aircraft.

F-4J F-4J

Time to dust off those Hasegawa, Italeri/ESCI or Monogram 1/48 F-4J kits. This set is definitely recommended.

My sincere thanks to CAM Decals for this review sample!
