Fairchild-Republic A-10C 78-0618 Idaho Air National Guard

These are 1/72 scale decals for Fairchild-Republic A-10C Thunderbolt II 78-0618, assigned to the 190th Fighter Squadron, Idaho Air National Guard, in a striking commemorative World War II camouflage scheme.

The 190th Fighter Squadron is part of the 124th Fighter Wing, Idaho Air National Guard, based at Gowen Field, Boise, Idaho — one of the Air National Guard's premier A-10 units, with a long and distinguished history of close air support operations. The commemorative WWII scheme worn by 78-0618 pays tribute to the wartime heritage of American tactical airpower, connecting the modern Thunderbolt II's close air support mission directly to the ground attack aircraft and pilots of World War II who pioneered it.

The A-10C is the definitive upgraded variant of the Thunderbolt II, incorporating a modern glass cockpit, precision engagement systems, and enhanced avionics that transformed the aircraft from a Cold War tank killer into a highly precise, network-enabled close air support platform capable of operating effectively in the complex battlefields of the 21st century. The juxtaposition of cutting-edge avionics beneath a WWII-era paint scheme makes 78-0618 one of the most visually compelling and historically resonant A-10s ever to fly.

A wonderful addition to any A-10 collection, and a fine companion to the 66th FWS “Jaws” A-10A and the 357th FS two-tone gray A-10A also in the catalog. Please allow some time for decal printing and shipping.
