Description

"Aces" are any aircrew who destroy five or more enemy aircraft in air to air combat. Air combats over Vietnam were comparatively limited and produced only five aces. Three of them: Richard Stephen "Steve" Ritchie, Jeffrey Feinstein, and Randy Cunningham are named pilots in the decal sets for this kit. Charles DeBellevue and William Driscoll flew as weapons officers with Richard Ritchie and Randy Cunningham and are also credited as aces. The last decal is for Robin Olds-a maverick ace pilot and commander who flew in WWII and Vietnam.
