A special request: font type for Italian F-104G

[JensOle]

Hello,

Does anybody know the font (or a similar font) used on the "lov vis" Italian sqn codes during the later years of F-104G flying?

Thanks! It is not exactly the same font, but I used as a starting point and hand painted it.

F-104G "3-36" of 3 Stormo 1991 as it looked during operation "Ace guard" while based in Turkey during the gulf war.

Nice, the two paints show the different decals which the aircraft of the Italian recce detachment had, as far as my research goes so did not 3-36 have the sqn/wing decals as seen on most of the others. Of interest is also that 3-36 had the 20mm. cannon.

Here's a link to Richard Caruana's site; MAI-41 is the sheet you need. Not complete but several numbers and letters here plus lots of other stuff.
