Xtradecal sheet X003-32 provides markings for RF-4C-38-MC 68-0567 "AR" marked as "STARIZE" from the 1st TRS, 10th TRW at RAF Alconbury.
This aircraft wore the Euro-1 scheme comprising dark green FS34092, dark grey FS36081 and medium green FS34102. The radome was black and this was carried back over the windscreen and canopies.
The individual aircraft markings were colourful and comprised "STARIZE" script in white on an Insignia Blue ribbon outlined in red on the nose. A vertical set of black chequers (outlined in red) was on the nose behind the radome and on the intakes was carried the squadron badge (port) and wing badge (starboard) in black.
On the fin was a black "AR" tailcode (outlined in white), with "10 TRW" below (also in black outlined in white). The fin tip was Insignia Blue with white and red star artwork.
The sheet provides all these markings, and a limited set of stencils and walkways.
Instructions are provided on a one-sided A4 sheet in black-and-white and show the stencilling, main markings and camouflage drawings.
This scheme would look fantastic on the 1/32 Revell RF-4C!
