Zotz Decals 1/48
F-16 Italian Vipers

Zotz Decals is back with another interesting release, this time covering five F-16A ADF (air defense fighter) Vipers of the Italian Air Force. This set provides a nice cross-section of the ADFs in service with Italy by providing markings representing three different operational squadrons, plus the very colorful Greyhound scheme that was carried on the 23 Squadron's 90th Anniversary aircraft.

The five subjects covered here are:

• F-16A ADF, MM72-51, '90th Anniversary 23° Gruppo'
• F-16A ADF, MM72-55, 82-0924, 18° Gruppo/37° Stormo
• F-16A ADF, MM72-61, 82-1001, 37° Stormo (Wing)
• F-16A ADF, MM72-62, 82-1005, 23° Gruppo/5° Stormo
• F-16A ADF, MM72-64, 81-0713, 10° Gruppo/37° Stormo

This set provides the markings and stencils to render your choice of one of these five fine examples. These markings are perfectly timed as the new Kinetic F-16AM kit also has all of the ADF antennas in the box as well.

This set is definitely recommended!
