Three new 1/48 decal sheets coming for A-4 Skyhawks in Vietnam
The focus again is on covering Vietnam specific aircraft and like usual with AOA an attempt was to cover a range of markings used by specific squadrons throughout their time in Vietnam.

There will be three parts of "Battle Scooters", with each having about a dozen options for A-4C, A-4E, and A-4F Skyhawks. A complete set of data/stencils also is included in each.


Prices TBD
