Here is one of the latest releases from Twobobs Aviation Graphics. This set covers two VFC-12 Aggressors.

The FA-18A is wearing a two-tone blue camouflage scheme whilst the FA-18B sports a desert scheme. Both aircraft are actually wearing camouflaged MiG-29 silhouettes over standard grey paint. The details are there, just like the actual aggressor aircraft, right down to the simulated dorsal intake vents painted on the LERXs.

  • F/A-18A, 162435, AF/00, VFC-12
  • F/A-18B, 161740, -/14, VFC-12

National markings and basic stencils are provided for both aircraft.

The printing of these decals is their usual excellent quality, with all of the complex markings in perfrect register, but just in case, most of the complex markings are also provided in layers if you prefer to adjust the alignment/register yourself.
