1/48 F-15E Saddam Hunters!! decal sheet

Product #48068

Product Article by Steve Bamford on Mar 29 2004

--------------------

This sheet features five different aircraft from the 336th FS in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom.  There are enough options for two complete jets and all the aircraft feature nose art and mission markings.

Bombay Sapphire, Southern Outlaw, Dirty Bird, Saddam Hunter and 4 Warned are all featured on this sheet.  The nose art is represented in two ways, complete as one decal and also split up into two decals.  This was done to ensure perfect registration for the modeler.  Mission markings for all the aircraft as well as complete stencil data will enable the modeler to build two complete aircraft.  

Another great sheet for the excellent Revellogram Strike Eagle kit!  This sheet will also be available in the near future in 72nd as well as 32nd scale.

References were provided by Capt. Randall "Hacker" Haskins of the 336th FS.  He was also the artist of the Bombay Sapphire nose art.

The decals are contained on 2 decal sheets and include a huge array of noseart type decals.  Due to the intricate nature of noseart, the Twobobs decals do the noseart as one multi layered decal and also as a single layered decal.  

 

This is to ensure perfect registration and I found no registration problems with any of these decals, so you have full options here for which ever route you prefer to go.

The noseart decals are all quite interesting and amusing and I'd be hard pressed to pick just one.....fortunately there are enough stencils included for 2 aircraft, so this will make it easier on you when it comes time to decide which of these aircraft to build.  The tiny stencils are very clearly printed and of a very high quality.  

The instructions are the usual Twobobs colour instructions which are easy to follow and should make applying the decals a simple job.  On the back of the instruction sheet is some text from the artist of some of these planes   Capt. Randall "Hacker" Haskin detailing some of the story behind the noseart on these aircraft.

A very historically relevant sheet from Twobobs that features some great nose art!
