The HobbyBoss 1/48 scale F/A-18E model kit contains 14 gray and two clear parts trees, one fret of photo-etched metal (PE), a vinyl tube for the optional D-704 Buddy Pod, upper and lower fuselage halves, and four beautiful decal sheets for six different aircraft and weapons. (I went with VFA-31 based on the USS
Theodore Roosevelt in 2009, which happens to be on the box cover.) Watch out for some of the larger attachment points on the parts tree, and be careful when removing parts so you don’t mar them. Both the painting guide and instructions are printed in in color and easy to follow.
