MAW-Decals is a decal company that is well-placed well-placed to get quality information - near Camp Lejuene, NC. MAW (for Marine Air Wing) is affiliated with VF Decals (VF - Navy Fighter Squadron).

In this release, they've tackled four F/A-18C Hornets from three USMC squadrons, each offering some colorful and/or distinctive markings for the Hasegawa 1/72 F/A-18C kit.

The four aircraft covered in this set are :

  • F/A-18C, 164265, VMFA-122, DC/01, Jan 2004
  • F/A-18C, 164871, VMFA-241, AB/200, USS Theodore Roosevelt, Jul 2001

The decal printing is crisp and colorful and also includes one set of maintenance stencils. The instructions are printed in full color. This set also includes a nice external stores loadout chart for the F/A-18C/D.
