  3. F-8E Skinpack 3 USMC

    By Corktip_14

    Here's the third skinpack for the MF's F-8E. I depicts the 3 missing USMC units used in the stock campaign flying the F-8E:
     
    - VMF(AW)-212 Lancers, CVW-16, USS Oriskany, 1966. The Lancer's CO, Lt/Col Charles Ludden, became the first USMC aviator at the top of an embarqued Air Wing since WW2 when Cdr James Stockdale was shot down in 1966.
     
    - VMF(AW)-232 Red Devils, MAG-12, Da Nang, 1966.
     
    - VMF(AW)-235 Death Angels, MAG-12, Da Nang, 1967. The dirtiest and most elaborately decorated Crusaders ever seen in South-East Asia!
     
    With this third skinpack, every F-8 units in the stock Rolling Thunder campaign is now covered, except VF-24, wish should be released with the F-8C.
     
    Hop you'll enjoy!

  5. F-8H Philippine Air Force

    By Muesli

    Besides the US Navy, the US Marines and the French Navy a third customer used the famous Gunfighter.
    The Philippines bought about 35 secondhand F-8H from the US Navy storages, of which 10 would serve as parts donors.
    All these Saders were in fact refurbished F-8D's. Here's a couple with incorrect tail numbers (sorry) from the 7th TFS.
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    Thanks to BPAo ( ), Pedro, Column5, all others and CombatAce!

  16. VF-103 Sluggers skin for Mirage Factory F-8E

    By Dave

    VF-103 (the "Sluggers") was activated in 1952 as an F4U Corsair squadron. VF-103 shortly transitioned to the F9F Cougar. After a few years with the Cougar, VF-103 was one of the first squadrons to transition to the F-8 Crusader. Once the transition was completed they were teamed up with VF-102 on board Forrestal. Before the introduction to supersonic Crusader jets, American carrier battle groups were often embarrassed by British bombers during allied exercises as the RAF English Electric Canberras had always been able to make mock attacks on US Carriers with impunity. The carrier-based fighters at the time simply could not put up much resistance. During the 1958 Mediterranean cruise, British pilots were shocked when VF-103 tore through their formation of Canberras before they even had a chance to start their simulated attack.
     
    Just put into your MF F-8E folder and fly.
     
    Thanks to C5 for the skin templates. Thanks the rest of the MF for everything else.

  17. VF-11 Red Rippers for Mirage Factory F-8D

    By Dave

    The Navy fighter squadron known as the Red Rippers were established as VF-5S in 1927 at Hampton Roads, Virginia. They flew the Curtis F6C-3 Hawk and have served in World War II, the Korean War and the Vietnam War. From 1927 to World War II, the Rippers flew several propeller aircraft including the Boeing F3B-1 and F4B-1, the Grumman FF-1 and F3F-1 and also held the following designations: VF-5S, VB-1B, VF-5 and VF-4. During World War II the Rippers were known as VF-41 and supported the allied invasion of North Africa, downing sixteen enemy aircraft in the Grumman F4F-3 Wildcat. They conducted the first air strikes against German forces in Norway in September 1943. The Red Rippers were designated VF-A when they transferred to the Pacific Theatre in 1944 on board USS Bunker Hill (CV-17) and USS Essex (CV-9). In the Pacific they flew the first air strikes against Tokyo in the Grumman F6F Hellcat.
     
    In 1948 the Red Rippers were redesignated as VF-11. After World War II, the Red Rippers leaped into the jet age, flying the McDonnell F2H Banshee during the Korean War from the USS Kearsarge (CV-33). On 15 Feb 1959, the original Red Rippers were disestablished, but when VF-43 was redesignated as VF-11 on the following day, they decided to adopt the traditions and insignia of the Red Rippers. The "new" VF-11 Red Rippers transitioned to the Chance-Vought F-8 Crusader on USS Franklin D. Roosevelt (CV-42) where they helped quell the unrest in the Dominican Republic in 1961. In 1965 the Rippers moved to NAS Oceana flying the F-4 Phantom and saw action in North Vietnam in 1967 flying from the decks of USS Forrestal (CV-59).
     
    Just put into your MF F-8D folder and fly.
