Su-27 Fictional Skins: US Navy Fighter Squadrons (Volume II)
for DCS World 1.2.14 and later
This is a collection of seven skins representing three US Navy fighter squadrons using historical F-14 Tomcat liveries. The squadrons included are:
- VF-2 Bounty Hunters (CAG, Line birds)
- VF-111 Sundowners (CAG, Line birds)
- VF-213 Blacklions (CAG, CO, Line birds)
The VF-213 skins date from their 2005 deployment with CVW-8 on the USS Theodore Roosevelt (the "Tomcat Farewell Tour").
Most markings have been westernized, and the pilots have been given USN flightsuits with Naval Aviator wings and squadron patches. The helmet remains Russian made.
The VF-2 skins were inspired by GeorgeLKMT's VF-2 CAG skin for Dino Cattaneo's F-14D (for FSX), and the skin was also used as a starting point for my own VF-2 CAG skin.
Installation:
Copy the folders to your Liveries\Su-27 folder (either in DCS World\Bazar or Saved Games\DCS).
If you have any squadron requests, please PM me. If possible, provide top and profile views of the aircraft, preferably line art (much easier to extract color), and for CAG/CO birds, a close up of the tail fin is greatly appreciated.
You are free to use any of these skins in other projects as long as proper credit is provided in the readme file.
Fly Navy!
