F/A-18 in a squadron TOP GUN


Recommended Posts

Is the F/A-18 used in TOP GUN yet, I assume it must be.

 

I'll try to find you some pics.

DCS Wishlist: 1) FIX THE DAMN RIVERS!!! 2) Spherical or cylindrical panorama view projection. 3) Enhanced input options (action upon button release, etc). 4) Aircraft flight parameter dump upon exit (stick posn, attitude, rates, accel, control volume, control-surface positions, SAS bias, etc). 5) ADS-33 maneuver courses as static objects. 6) Exposed API or exports of trim position and stick force for custom controllers. 7) Select auto multiple audio devices

Do a photo search on the F/A-18 and you will have so many you will have to make a subfolder for them, I know I did :)

 

Also Flanker, the Squadron is VFC-12 "Fighting Omars" and they'd be NSAWC birds as well :thumbup:

any specific reason why you are posting F-14 paintjobs although he wants F/A-18 Hornet Schemes?

why do all these jets have crazy paint jobs

 

 

Except the VX-9 Black Tomcat, these Tomcats (and also several dozens of F/A-18s, F-5s, A-4s and F-16s) have adopted these different paintjobs as their primary role is to represent adversary or enemy aircraft in an Air Combat Maneuvering Environment. Their Job: Train allied Fighterpilots, fly using adversary tactics. The Paintjobs are basically there to emphasize their role as in..well...Its gonna make it easier to believe that they are the real enemy. Some Paintjobs are definately leaned on the current and late russian paintjobs of the MiGs and SUs.

This is just what i think this stuff is about...
