TWO BOBS DECALS SHEET 48-157 - F-16C "WOLFPACK BANDITS"

 



This sheet is not currently available in in 1/72nd scale (as at March 2008) and I thus acquired it in 1/48th, mainly for the instructions.  It covers 3 F-16C/D's from the 8th TFW at Kunsan AFB, South Korea during October 2007. These aircraft are in the 3-tone blue/blue/grey Aggressor scheme (identical to the 57th FWW at Nellis AFB). The aircraft only carried this scheme for approximately 6 months before being transferred to Eielson AFB, Alaska and being remarked with AK tailcodes (subject of an upcoming sheet).

The airframes covered are:-

  • F-16C Block 30 86-293 WP;
  • F-16D Block 30 87-378 WP; and
  • F-16C 86-1335 WP

As usual, the sheet is perfectly in register and beautifully printed.  The instructions are comprehensive, with details of the Vipers assigned to the 8th TFW and there are also some close up shots of each airframe.  All instructions are in color.

All in all, another very nice sheet!  Just a pity it's not available in 1/72nd scale...
