Gator52 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) This represents the T-38As assigned to the 2d Bomb Wing at Barksdale AFB in the 1990s as companion trainers. Wolfpack kit is very nice, model is OOB except for tape straps on the seats. Decals are from the spares box, plus a few ALPS-printed markings printed by Speedway Decals. Subject T-38A, 64-13305, summer 1995: I'd like to build several more of these to represent the other bomber bases...Dyess, Grand Forks, Ellsworth, Mountain Home. I've also seen photos of a T-38A in AMC gray at Seymour Johnson, would like to do that one too! Chris Edited November 15, 2022 by Gator52 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Falconxlvi Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Nice! Definitely some unique markings too 👍🏻 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
eraucubsfan Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 That's a good lookin color on a T-38 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mungo1974 Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 (edited) Nice work,building the Trumpeter kit as a companion trainer right now. Surprised other than the Two Bobs sheet covering BB/HO/WM jets no one else has done these in decals they make some unusual subjects. Mine at the moment will be a Offutt AFB 55th Wing jet. https://www.airliners.net/photo/USA-Air-Force/Northrop-T-38A-Talon/647506/L Edited April 17, 2020 by mungo1974 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gator52 Posted April 17, 2020 Author Share Posted April 17, 2020 (edited) Very nice, that Offutt scheme is new to me...which shade of gray would you call that? Chris Edited November 15, 2022 by Gator52 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mungo1974 Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Could be any one of a number of light greys. I had presumed it was just Aircraft Grey FS16473 or whatever grey is used on Offutt's EC/RC-135 Fleet. Still need to find someone to draw up & print the Fightin' 55th tail markings too.

Gator52 Posted April 22, 2020 Author Share Posted April 22, 2020 (edited) I checked with a friend whom I consider an expert on USAF colors & markings...his take is that you're on the right track with FS 16473! Hope to see some photos of your model sometime. Chris Edited November 15, 2022 by Gator52 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
