Subject Tomcat Nose Art & Afghan War Hero
Scale 1/48
Set Number 48023
Pros Markings for two aircraft
Cons  
Skill Level Basic
MSRP (USD) OOP

The folks at Yellowhammer Models continue to turn out great aftermarket decals with some of the best instructions/color profiles on the market. Their Yellowhammer line also continues its love affair with the F-14 Tomcat.

This set provides markings for two aircraft:

  • F-14B, BuNo 161435, "Kate's Nickel", VF-103 Sqn Cdr, USS George Washington, December 2001
  • F-14A, BuNo 162698, Afghan War Hero, VF-14, USS Enterprise, Nov/Dec 2001

The set also includes a complete set of stencils and appropriate national markings.

This set is in perfect register and the white areas appear to be opaque (background colors will not show through). Highly recommended!

Definitely recommended!

My sincere thanks to Meteor Productions for this review sample!
