Which Dragon Super Bug Versions Are Correct?

I have the DW "Jolly Rogers" (DRW50169) and "Diamondbacks" (DRW50082) F/A-18F with the incorrect dorsal speed brake. I know DW fixed the mold but which ones in particular? I want to add a corrected F/A-18E and an F/A-18F to my collection. Did they only fix one of the two types (E and F) or both and which liveries?

VFA-41 or VFA-14? If it is the VFA-14 "Tophatters", it is an F/A-18E (single seater). Did they fix the F/A-18F (twin seater) too?

The VFA-41 Black Aces F/A-18F (two-seater) is also corrected. DRW50179.

Re: Which Dragon Super Bug Versions Are Correct?

I assume the VFA -2 no 50064 is wrong?

Re: Which Dragon Super Bug Versions Are Correct?

VFA-41 is the first one that has the corrected airbrake. All the releases that come after it, i.e. VFA-14 and VFA-213 are corrected.

VFA-2 "Bounty Hunters" was the first release so it must be WAY wrong - sorry! VFA-213 "Black Lions" is a corrected one since it is a recent release. I get it - thanks!

Re: Which Dragon Super Bug Versions Are Correct?

I'm gonna get the VFA-31 "Tomcatters" F/A-18E and the VFA-11 "Red Rippers" F/A-18F. These are both corrected I think. Two for the price of one CW!
