The title of this release is a little misleading - "First of the Weasels" but the narrative reflects the true history of the aircraft and the program - the "EF-4C" was the first of the Phantom Weasels. The F-100F, EF-105F, and F-105G preceeded the F-4C.

The aircraft covered in this set is :

  • F-4C, 63-7423, 67 TFS, Korat RTAFB, Nov 1972, "Jail Bait"
  • F-4C, 63-7470, 67 TFS, Korat RTAFB, Nov 1972, "Rub-A-Dub Dub"
  • F-4C, 63-7474, 67 TFS, Korat RTAFB, Nov 1972, "Brain Damage"
  • F-4C, 64-0791, 67 TFS, Korat RTAFB, Nov 1972, "Squirrely Bird"
  • F-4C, 64-0840, 67 TFS, Korat RTAFB, Nov 1972, "Super Cocks Swiss Samlar"

This decal set provides the distinctive aircraft markings, a nice set of maintenance stencils, national markings, as well as slime lights. There are sufficient decals on this sheet for two complete aircraft. This set is intended for the Hasegawa 1/48 F-4C.

The decal printing is perfectly in register. The instructions are printed double-sided in color, providing excellent color scheme as well as decal placement information.

This set is definitely recommended!
