After that, it is a traditional marking that is handed over to the US Navy's 61st Fighter Squadron (VF-61), 84th Fighter Squadron (VF-84), 103rd Squadron (VF-103).

Republic P-47N Thunderbolt U.S. Army Air Force Fighter Revell 1/48

It is a Revell P-47N Thunderbolt. The marking is 318th Fighter Group, 19th Fighter Squadron at Ie Shima, Okinawa JAPAN, May 1945. There was a bit of burr and the gate was thick, but it was not so difficult if it was carefully assembled. But honestly, it is more difficult than Tamiya Hasegawa. The decal is very beautiful and of good quality.

F-14A Black Tomcat U.S. Navy Carrier-Based Fighter Revell 1/144

I think Revell's newer 1/144 F-14A kit is very good. Although it is a mini scale, it is very delicate and the decal is also fine. This is "Vandy One", Air Test and Evaluation Squadron VX-4, NAS Pt Mugu, California, USA, 1991.

P-51D Mustang U.S. Army Air Force Fighter Platz 1/144

I thought Sweet was the only 1/144 scale airplane plastic model with a good mold, but this Platz Mustang is pretty good. It is difficult to mark small airframes in detail. But I think propellers are pretty realistic.

F-100F Super Sabre U.S. Air Force Fighter Trumpeter 1/48

It is a Trumpeter F-100F Super Sabre. 1/48 scale is quite big and worth painting. Marking is the 48th Tactical Fighter Wing at RAF Lakenheath's airbase in 1960. It's a base of the British Air Force, but only the 48th air wing of the U.S. Air Force was stationed.

A-7E Corsair II U.S. Navy Attack Aircraft Hasegawa 1/48

It is a Hasegawa A-7E Corsair II. It is a fairly old release, but it is still a highly rated kit. Marking is ARGONAUTS VA-147 U.S.Navy at USS KITTY HAWK aircraft carrier. I bought it before, so it was hard because the decal has deteriorated.

Lockheed F-104C Starfighter U.S. Air Force Hasegawa 1/48

I built the Hasegawa F-104C Starfighter. On the way, the color of the main wing was wrong, and scratches were noticeable with silver paint. It is 1/48 scale and has volume and a unique shape. I enjoyed it.

Republic P-47M Thunderbolt U.S. Army Air Force Tamiya 1/48

This is the building note of the Tamiya Republic P-47M Thunderbolt. I am quite a beginner, but I managed to complete the plastic model of the airplane. It's hard to mask planes.
