The subject covered in this set include:

  • F-16C Block 30, 87-0247, 482 FW, Homestead AFB, 2014, Wing CC's aircraft

The markings are nicely printed (by Cartograf) with a correction sheet from Microscale and provide all of the distinctive markings plus stenciling for one airframe. This is a nice set of alternatives to the kit decals and will make your Tamiya Viper look great!

For more information about this set and the other releases from Caracal Models, visit their website at http://caracalmodels.com.

My sincere thanks to Caracal Models for this review sample!
