The Academy 1/72 F/A-18F VFA-103 Jolly Rogers captures the iconic skull and crossbones scheme with careful plastic moulding and precise surface detail. This scale kit recreates the Super Hornet's silhouette for model builders who prioritise authenticity and display-quality finishes.

Service Background and Model Accuracy

The F/A-18F Super Hornet serves as a twin-engine carrier-capable multirole fighter and the VFA-103 squadron is renowned for its distinctive Jolly Rogers markings. This kit aims to mirror the aircraft's lines and presence, giving builders a faithful static replica that reflects the jet's operational character.

Assembly Process and Display Potential

Parts are engineered for fine detail and the decal sheet is tailored to recreate the squadron insignia, making the build rewarding for those with prior modelling experience. Finished models display well in cabinets and on dioramas, offering both collectors and display modellers a strong centrepiece.
