MattN Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Yes, the Platz sheet with the Hawaii ANG markings was only in 1/72. But the Academy 1/72 F-22 also had the HH tailcodes as an option. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A T Lee Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 There are markings for the Alaska F-22s that have never been released, but I have asked for it in every decals sheet I have requested. It's a tail band that say "Arctic Warriors". I hope Kursad chooses to release it in his set. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

habu2 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 It looks like different fonts used for the Arctic Warriors stripe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That is correct, Habu. Those pictures are from 2 different aircraft from 2 different airshows. The one that is an oblique is a picture of the Wing Commander's jet from circa 2007 2006(my error). The other two from circa 2013 2012. Nice thing is those pictures are mine that I took at the airshow. I got the colors that are supposed to be used for that from the base paint shop, but not the fonts. FS36173 and FS36251. Edited November 26, 2021 by A T Lee Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Captain Tyler Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 (edited) I know the sheet is almost done, but just as a heads up, the flagship of the 411th Flight Test Squadron, 06-4132, has been spotted with special nose art. The aircraft is now named "Ace Trey Deuce." Edited January 11, 2022 by Captain Tyler Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted January 10, 2022 Author Share Posted January 10, 2022 This is nice - not too late to add it to the sheet if we can find a close-up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ill take a gander and see if I can find additional photos of this subject. For aircraft 132, note the 412th TW insignia on the right intake, and F-22 CTF logo on the left intake.

Captain Tyler Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 (edited) Hey Kursad. Just a quick update on that one 411th FLTS Raptor. There were no additional photos of the aircraft with those markings up close, probably because they were added quite recently. However these pictures popped up yesterday with the aircraft carrying stealth pods, so the "Raptor Eyes" on the nose is confirmed at least.

KursadA Posted February 10, 2022 Author Share Posted February 10, 2022 Thanks! Is there a close up of the photo registration marks by any chance? They would be a nice addition to the sheet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They would be a nice addition to the sheet. Sure thing. Details of the tail markings and tail flash here, as well as a view of the aircraft with the F-22 CTF logo just aft of the left intake, and on on the right intake, the 412th Test Wing logo.

Captain Tyler Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Actually, I was able to get some shots of the Hobby Master rendition of this aircraft. Here are those markings I was referring to, as well as the "132" on the nose Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hobby Master is such a fantastic model maker, but the F-22 is one of their weaker products. Im ready to get some Hasegawa F-22s done to compensate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
