Shimshon, now with squadron badge and correct serial numbers. We'll soon get high with a little help from my friends Jarek and Kevin!

Question - I have permission to release the skin, but does anyone want me to create a full nationalised Israeli Shimshon aircraft (with Dels' permission of course)?

depends on when and what air wing they were assigned to. i have a book on it, but it only goes to 1994 and VF-103 became The Jolly Rogers after VF-84 disbanded in 1995, so you need to look up between 95 and 05 (when they transitioned to Super Bugs)

Desert and Jungle Scooters - Kuwait and Malaysia. Found some time to work on these again. Progress is slow but steady. Includes new (properly shaped) 300 gal tanks together with some new antenna and the dragchutefairing on the malaysian scooter. Thanks cocas for helping me with out here!

WIP...can anybody tell me if the tail code is correct for these markings?

 

VF-103, following their change from Sluggers to Jolly Rogers remained part of CVW-17, using the tailcode "AA" vice "AJ" (CVW-8).  This site has damn near every CVW deployment, which will give you what squadrons were attached, and what their tailcodes were (link shows CVW-17) http://www.gonavy.jp/CVW-AAf.html.
