Fresh meat, here, jumping in late in the game. But I just joined the board, and the jerseys are awesome. I don't know where the voting is, but I like #2, and will take one of whatever the group decides. Thanks for your efforts!

After filming, the jets were repainted their Agressor Squadron colors (various camoflages and paint schemes of the enemies of the day). But the outline of Red Star would always be faintly visible. No amount of primer or paint would hide it.
Probably still there today.
The Red Star lives forever.

Just my 2 cents.

You gave control to the one guy that voted for the one choice, that had one vote.

Not discreet enough! Only black will do in the "crucial places"--unless of course we want to offer a special model for the guys who want to. . .advertise?
