As with Part I, this set is designed for the Tamiya 1/48 F-16C kits and ideally for the specific F-16C/N Aggressor kit. There are enough stencil sets in this release to render ten aircraft. The instructions do indicate how to adapt these decals to work with Hasegawa should you prefer that kit. The printing looks great on these sheets which is no surprise givent that they're printed by Cartograf.

These decals are sold exclusively by Sprue Brothers.

My sincere thanks to Bullseye Model Aviation for this review sample!
