All of these aircraft save for the VF-32 jet on 48-017 are equipped with the forward facing AN/APR-30 RHAW antenna and the rear ALQ-51/100 jammer on the fin. This is the only option in the kit unless you hack them off.
The VF-32 jet is equipped with the short lived forward facing AN/APR-24.
A plain fin tip and one with the AN/APR-24 will be available shortly in a 3D printed part.
These will be available from Sprue Brothers in the US and The 48ers overseas.
