VICTORY IS AT HAND!!
This is a reworked VFA-103 Jolly Rogers skin set. This skin is a merging enhancement, and expansion of the VFA-103 skin using SidDoggs cleaner skins combined with the original Super Hornet release skin (some decals retained) and with new decals by me.
I'd like to thank the following
-TK and Third Wire for creating a wonderfully open sim.
-The CombatAce Staff for being the anchor for this community
-InSky for their F/A-18F model, skins and decals
-Siddogg for letting me use his 'cleaner' skins as a basis for my work
* VFA-103 The Jolly Rogers: Into the future with Super Bugs
In December 2004 Carrier Air Wing 17 finished it's deployment with USS John F Kennedy and the F-14B Tomcats of VF-103 were sent to the bone yard at Davis Monthon AFB. This was a sad time for anyone who has a heart for the Tomcat. However, as has happened many times before in Naval Aviation history, including Jolly Roger history (F4U Corsair, F6F Hellcat, F-9F Panther, F-8 Crusader, and F-4 Phantom to name a few) reality weighs anchor and moves on.
VF-103 was redesignated VFA-103 and began training for and recieving the F/A-18F Super Hornet. In 2005 VFA-103 left Carrier Air Wing 17 (AA) and joined VFA-143 (Pukin) Dogs F/A-18E AG 1xx, VFA-83 Rampagers F/A-18C AG 3xx, and VFA-131 Wildcats F/A-18C AG 4xx in Carrier Air Wing 7. VFA-103 took on the AG code and returned to the 2xx modex numbers. In October 2005 CVW-7 began workups for deployment, and in October 2006 headed for the CENTCOM AOR aboard USS Dwight D Eisenhower. for an 8 month deployment. VFA-103 and CVW-7 had a very sucessful deployment.
* Included are the Carrier Air Wing 17 (AA tailcode) hi-viz and Lo-Viz colors,as well as the Carrier Air Wing 7 (AG tailcode) hi-viz and lo-viz colors.
