Syhart 48-160 :

In 1777, the Marquis de La Fayette helped the Thirteen Colonies win their independence and became a hero of the United States. In 1784, he returned there triumphantly.

To mark the bicentennial of this historic return, in October 2024, the French Air and Space Force deployed an A330 MRTT and two Rafale B jets from Escadron de Chasse 2/4 “La Fayette” to the United States, including a memorable flyover of Washington, D.C.

Among them, the Rafale B 4‑ID was specially decorated for the occasion with the colors of the Marquis de La Fayette, as well as the French and American flags, in a design by Régis Rocca.

- Resin accessories for Rafale are available here by : Syhart accessories.

- This set 1/48 consists of :
      - 2 decals sheets (1 large + 1 medium)
      - 1 A4 colored page of instructions (front / back)
      - 1 set of masks for anti-skid zones.

Thanks to Mr Régis Rocca, original author of this scheme and to Dassault Aviation for the agreements to release these decals sets.
