Caracal Models 1/72 Air National Guard T-33A Decals
By Matt Bittner
When Platz released their 1/72 T-33 a couple of years ago, it became the definitive model of that type in 1/72. The detail is top-notch and it looks fantastic when built. The only thing that has been missing have been decals to support such an excellent kit, especially for Air National Guard units. Thankfully Caracal Models has released this set of decals for eight aircraft:
-
101st FIS, Massachusetts ANG - 159th FIS, Florida ANG
- 171st FIS, Michigan ANG
- 146th FIS, Pennsylvania ANG
- 119th FIS, New Jersey ANG
- 178th FIS, North Dakota ANG (two variations)
- 123rd FIS, Oregon ANG
- 111th FIS, Texas ANG
All aircraft are finished in ADC Gray, and most have some type of “accents”, be it fin/rudder or wing tanks. Since Caracal Models has their decals printed by Cartograf, you can be assured of a very high quality decal sheet. Everything appears to be spot on.
If, like me, you have a couple/few of the Platz T-33 and want to finish it in “other” markings, then you’ll definitely want to pick up this set from Caracal Models.
Huge, huge thanks to Caracal Models for sending this us for review.
