NOTE! – This set comes in 2 versions.
One set is printed using accurate Federal Standard Insignia Red (FS11136) and Insignia Blue (FS15044) for the USN Insignia. These colours are matched to the Federal Standard paint chip book and are correct to the painting specifications of the real aircraft. There are only 50 sets printed with these colours.
The other set is printed using a slightly brighter Red and Blue to simulate what the aircraft would look like outside in the bright sunshine. These are not accurate colours but are often preferred by modellers. There are only 50 sets printed with these colours.
Please be mindful of the version of the decals you order.
