Flying Leathernecks FL48-8207 1/48 F/A-18C/D Nose with Searchlight and AN/APX-111 IFF (Swiss, Finnish, Kuwaiti)

**Use kit supplied clear lens, part L11 for the searchlight. Install from the inside, then paint and attach light box before attaching nose to kit.
Nose sections are hollow and are direct replacements for the kit parts. No modification to the kit is needed.
Also included are a piece for the forward nose wheel well, 2 x pitot tubes, 1 x CN18 antenna, 2 x AOA probes, 1 x ALR-67 antenna and 1 piece to depict the vent on the bottom aft portion of door 3.
Like most of our other items, these will be removed from the print supports prior to curing and packaging. All you will need to do is lightly sand the mating surface to remove the remnants of the support nibs.
