I gave no idea what was posted on scalemates, but I would drill a rel large hole in both surfaces, so you'd only need to worry about 2 rings....
Bingo!

Not without some serious work.
The CH-53G has:
6 rotor blades, 2 engines and a vertical tail
The CH-53E has:
7 rotor blades, 3 engines and an angled tail
And most likely many more small differences.

Couple of seconds? You got answered at 12:39 and posted here 14:30-ish...
The described way is the only way unless you have access to some fancy lathe or 3D milling equipment. Using a hobby saw will never get you a cut good enough to ensure a good alignment of the mating surfaces.

You already have your question answered on Scalemates.

I found out only 18 Jastreb's were used by the Yugoslav AF, serials 23501-23518. Preserved/stored in the Belgrade museum are/were: 23502, 23505, 23506, 23507, 23512 and 23513. Type is listed as "TJ-1 (NJ-21 Jastreb)"

After some more digging I found this info here. I didn't go through all pages: https://www.mycity-military.com/Avioni/G-2-Galeb-J-21-Jastreb_167.html
I assume the same applies to the NJ-21
Basic differences are
- three machine guns, Galeb has two
- six pylons for HVAR 5 ”rockets, Galeb has four
- larger tip tanks
- stronger construction
- stronger landig gear
- breaking parachute
- Viper 532 is more powerful than Viper 22-6
Jastreb is light attac aircraft, Galeb is a jet trainer.- 2

Please take these so called exact matches with a few grains of salt: I have got 3 tins of Xtracolor X123 "Blue Angels blue", 2 are labelled FS15050, 1 as FS15052 and none of the 3 match each other when sprayed. Same product number, different results. Go figure.
As stated in my first post Xtracolor also has a paint for the Hornet 1999 season: X163. I have not tried that (yet). On the Hannant's page it looks lighter than X123. No Blue Angels colors in the Xtracrylics range.

The FCM suggested colors seem to be OK, finding model paint equivalents is something else. In the online FCM instructions the grey is stated as 36495, not 36307:
FS36495
http://www.colorserver.net/showcolor.asp?fs=36495
FS36306
http://www.colorserver.net/showcolor.asp?fs=36306
FS35184
http://www.colorserver.net/showcolor.asp?fs=35184
There is a build on ARC that uses Gunze C338, Gunze EC-20 and Testors 2132:

Edit:
FS36306 is close to RAL7030 Stone Grey
FS35184 is close to Flanker blue/grey
FS36495 is readily available

Cannot help you with the dimensions but have a look at this company:
I know they have a Sea Vixen Ladder, Hunter ladder I could not find.

So you were aware of being answered to your request but decided to ignored them, edited your initial post and then blame me for my "tone". Right...

The problem is finding one of those sheets. I have been looking for one months, the reason for my question.

Ask here, you might get lucky:

And said to be in stock here:

I checked the tanks and pylons of my side-opening box of L4811 9-12 late and they are identical to the sprues of L4818 9-19. So I guess I am lucky, maybe the previous owner already had them replaced.

Caracal did a sheet (CD72017) for the AV-8A so the serial has to be cobbled together. All other VMAT-203 markings seem to be the same.

And a build here on Britmodeller. In 1/48 but still usefull:

I'm going to search for detailed cockpit and IP pics, because these Phantoms were upgraded to the AUP version and they sport quite some differences in the office from the original version.
There are many notable differences on the outside too, but I'll get to them later.
