Remarks: This AirDoc release includes decal options for 10 RF-4C during the 2nd Gulf War and 5 F-4G's from the 2nd Gulf War and operation Southern Watch. Although there are 15 decal options, there is only 1 set of insignia's and enough stenciling for 1 complete aircraft, If you want to complete more F-4G's or RF-4C's you need to get most of the stenciling and the insignia's from other sources. All instructions are in full color, painting guide is given in FS numbers, by using a converter sheet, you can easily convert them to your favorite brand, The decals are in perfect register, and the colors are excellent.
Besides paint and decal guides the instruction has also a list of advised kits and update or conversion sets. The kits that can be used for this sheet are very scarce. For the RF-4C there is only a old Revell kit, or you can try to obtain a Cutting Edge modification set for a Tamiya F-4C/D. For the F-4G you also need a Revell kit, but for this one, you can use the newer F-4 kit, or a Tamiya F-4E, but you also need to obtain a conversion set for both, all conversions are pretty hard to find at this moment (2008).
If you were able to modify the old Revell RF-4C or if you got a F-4G conversion, this is the perfect sheet to create a late Phantom.
