Starfighter Decals 1/144 F-8C USMC Crusaders NR
By Matt Bittner
- F8U-2 VMF-333, USS Forrestal, 1960
- F8U-2 VMF-451, NAS Miramar, 1959
- F-80 VMF-333, MCAS Yuma, 1967
Starfighter includes directions on which kit parts to use to create this last one, the F-80.
In addition to these three, there is also optional CAG markings to replace some of the kit markings for VF-84. This one has some colorful stripes for the rudder!
All aircraft are all over Gull Gray and White, and a couple of them have different colored wing tips. Decals are ALPS generated so the standard disclaimer applies - care must be taken during handling and application. Like the other Crusader decals, you'll need the national insignia and aircraft data markings from the kit.
Our thanks to Starfighter Decals for this review sample.
