Royal Australian Navy Fireflies flew ground attack operations from HMAS Sydney and HMAS Vengeance in the Korean War. Markings for two Fireflies of 817 Sqn. They are in Extra Dark Sea Grey over Sky, coded 205/K and 207/Q, operating from Sydney and Vengeance respectively. They are available in both 1/72 and 1/48 scale for the Airfix and Special Hobby kits and each sheet contains enough roundels to build both aircraft - pass one on to a mate.

National markings from the Hasegawa kit may be used. This is a simple conversion to make your Typhoon look quite diferent.
