KursadA Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 I have not released a new A-10C sheet since the ANG A-10C sheets sold out - there are a few new, interesting markings out there and it's time for a new USAF A-10C sheet. I just finished the design - it is coming in November, with 4-5 options. Here are a couple of the aircraft on this sheet: This is not the Cold War era Euro 1 A-10 sheet - that one is CD48192. This one will have modern markings and stencilling, while the A-10A sheet has period-accurate stencilling for 1980s-early 1990s and a ton of Euro 1 options. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted August 28, 2020 Author Share Posted August 28, 2020 CD48191 and CD48192 will be printed at the same time, but the Euro 1 sheet will be available the month after this one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Drifterdon Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Kursad, Would love to see an A-10A from the 343rd TFW, Eielson AFB, AK. I was stationed at Eielson during this time and remember them well. Always wanted to do up a Blue Fox A-10. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairchild_Republic_A-10_Thunderbolt_II#/media/File:A-10_Thunderbolt_II_Low-vis.JPEG Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Drifterdon Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 And another pic without the blue on the tips of the fins faded out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gator52 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Very nice, I especially look forward to 48192! Chris Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted August 28, 2020 Author Share Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) I will see what I can do. Is this the only one that had "Fairbanks" on the nacelle? Edited August 28, 2020 by KursadA Quote Link to post Share on other sites

juanchopancho Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Nice I'm going to get both of these Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Unknown. This happened after I left in May of '86. They all carried the basic markings like in my two ref photos without the Fairbanks deal on the nacelle. I think the Spirit of Fairbanks was unique to 993. Edited August 30, 2020 by Drifterdon Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Shorty84 Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Hi Kursad, would you consider to add an option for an 357th FS A-10C? I really like the yellow markings on the gray jet and want to build one badly but no decal manufacturer has ever done these markings Cheers Markus Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Falconxlvi Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Ordered! Your timing along with Phase Hanger’s imminent conversion set is perfect 👌🏻 I also picked up the 1/72 F-15E sheet. Love love love my Strikes! Thanks Kursad! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
delayar Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Was the Flying Tigers jet in this markings a pure demo jet, or did it fly with at least a training ordnance? And will this sheet be available at the48ers? Cheers, Markus Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers, Markus I don't know - the aircraft definitely flew with these markings for at least some time; and I don't think it was a demo jet in any official capacity. As for 48ers, you would have to ask them - they don't have an order for this sheet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ilias Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 An order will be placed soon and the48ers.com will restock all available Caracal Models' items along with all new releases! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
