US Naval Reserve fighter squadron VF-201 was established at NAS Dallas on 25 July 1970.  It flew the F-8H Crusader and in 1976 transitioned to the F-4N Phantom II and later the F-4S version.  In 1987 they transitioned to the F-14A and were the last Navy squadron to fly the F-4.The two Hunter aircraft on this sheet are two of the more colorful CAG jets that have flown with this squadron.  The F-14A represented is in the last scheme that was worn for it’s fini- flight to AMARG upon the Tomcat retirement while the F-4N scheme adorned this AC in 1977.There are enough markings for both complete aircraft.  There were not many stencils on this particular F-14 but there was a lot of graffiti that adorned this jet for it’s fini-flight.Stencils for the F-4N can be sourced from the excellent selection that are part of the Tamiya boxing of this kit.
