Tribute Build: 1/72 F/A-18F Super Hornet by Hasegawa 02380

Hasegawa 02380 marks the VFA-103 Jolly Rogers 75th anniversary with a detailed 1/72 Super Hornet kit that captures the squadron's iconic skull-and-crossbones scheme. Accurate moulding and a quality decal sheet help modellers achieve a faithful representation of this naval fighter.

Squadron Story and Kit Accuracy

The Jolly Rogers' long service is echoed in the kit through finely engraved panel lines and scale cockpit fittings. The decal artwork reproduces the distinctive livery clearly, making the completed model instantly recognisable.

Assembly Approach and Finishing Tips

This kit rewards careful work; small components and tight tolerances mean it suits modellers comfortable with detailed assembly. Applying subtle weathering and a satin varnish will enhance the finished appearance for display.

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly Type: Requires assembly
  • Paint and Decals: High-quality decals included

How long should I expect the build to take?

Build time varies with experience and finishing choices; plan for several sessions to assemble, paint and decal the model carefully.

Can I use aftermarket seats or canopies?

Some modellers fit aftermarket detail parts for extra realism. Check scale and fit before purchasing upgrades to ensure compatibility.

What glue works best for small plastic parts?

Use a fine applicator of plastic cement for large joints and a drop of superglue for tiny or awkward pieces; work in a well ventilated area.

Any advice for decal placement on curved surfaces?

Soften decals with a setting solution and gently work them into panel lines with a soft brush; patience and thin coats of clear will give a smooth finish.
