This new 1/32 decal sheet from Zotz Decals features 2 different F-8J Crusaders.....one is a USN bird from 1972 with and the other is a jet with the French Navy in 1999. 

The aircraft include;

  • The US Navy jet  is a F-8J 150898 flown by CDR Paul Stephensonis with VF-24 at Nellis AFB in Oct 1974.
  • The French Navy jet  is a F-8E (FN)-P: that performed the last cat shot on Feb 25 1999.  This jet features Donald Duck with a Trident tailart and a sharks mouth on it's nose for this special day as a souvenir from its Vietnam years.

Markings are contained on 4 decals sheets.  Package also includes 3 pages of instructions.  One page of instructions includes 4 view line drawings showing the placement for each of the many stencils.

Paint color codes are called out mostly in FS numbers.  

The Crusader is a very historic jet and these 2 aircraft represent much of the gallant history of this noble jet.

A great decal sheet and sure to sell well.....wow so many stencils.
