Here is the latest decal release from Caracal Models, this time for the Kinetic Models 1/48 S-2E/G Tracker. This set provides a nice variety of subjects for the modeler to choose from.

The aircraft presented in this set include:

  • S-2E, 151639, VS-29, NS/206, USS Kearsarge, 1969
  • S-2E, 152373, VS-23, NU/12, USS Yorktown, 1968
  • S-2E, 151674, VS-22, AT/111, USS Wasp, 1971

The markings are sharp and in perfect register. The decals are printed by Microscale.

This set provides some nice alternative markings to the Kinetic Models' kit and help provide some colorful schemes for your own Tracker.
