+bobrock Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 View File F-104G Italian Air Force 3° Stormo 1991 F104G 3° Stormo C. E. Buscaglia, 28° Gruppo Operation Ace Guard 1991 On 21 December 1990 3° Stormo received the order to deploy six planes, in recce configuration, to the forward turkish base of Erhac as part of the NATO coalition, during the 1st Gulf War. Between 6 January and march 1991, in rigid weather (up to 25°C below zero) and uncomfortable conditions, the RF-104Gs flew over 300 sorties patrolling the turkish southern border. The planes were painted in the standard NATO tactical scheme with low visibility markings. The squadron insignia are four cats (of the former 278° Torpedo Bomber Squadron) and it's named after Carlo Emanuele Buscaglia, commander of a torpedo squadron during WWII. The squadron has been disbanded during the '90s and 28° Gruppo "Strega" (Witch, from the callsign used during the war) is now part of 32° Stormo. This skin is for the original Third Wire F-104G model only. Installation instructions in the readme.txt included.
