Subject F-14 Tomcat Sunset Part 3
Scale 1/48
Set Number 48037
Pros Beautiful color printing - nicely in register
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. This set continues the series denoting the decommissioning of the F-14 Tomcat from USN service.

In this installment, we have two colorful F-14Ds from the VF-31 Tomcatters counting down the final days of the F-14 in USN service.

Markings are provided for two aircraft:

  • F-14D, BuNo 163904, VF-31, -/102, NAS Oceana, 20 Sep 2006
  • F-14D, BuNo 164342, VF-31, -/100, NAS Oceana, 8 Sep 2006, CAG CVW-8

The decals are very nicely printed and perfectly in register. The set also includes a small PYN-up decal sheet with the high color flame art for the Felixes.

Definitely recommended!

My sincere thanks to Meteor Productions for this review sample!
