Su-37 Yellow Squadron skinpack

---

Skinpack including 4 skins from Ace Combat 04; Yellow 13, Yellow 4, Jean-Louis, and Gene.

 

The skin itself is edited from Jetfreak-7's Yellow 13 skin for HAWX, you can find it here --> http://jetfreak-7.deviantart.com/art/Su-37-Yellow-Squadron-331659969

 

A little info about the pilots:

 

-Yellow 13 and 4 were part of the 156th Tactical Fighter Wing, also known as Aquila, however, due to the yellow bellies of their Su-37s, the squadron was commonly known as the Yellow Squadron. The nicknames of their pilots came from the number of their aircraft, for example, Yellow 13 isn't the thirteenth pilot of the squadron, he pilots the 013 aircraft. Four was killed during the Stonehenge assault after deciding to depart with her damaged Su-37, after a bomb exploded on their makeshift runway. Thirteen was shot down and probably killed during the Siege of Farbanti. Both pilots were shot down by Mobius One.

 

-Jean-Louis and Gene are part of the Megalith Defense Squadron, a squadron hastily formed by a group of officers after the Second Usean Continental War to defend Megalith. They weren't part of the 156th TFW, but they had painted their Su-37s in their colors. They were both killed during the Megalith assault, first Jean-Louis, making Gene first-in-command, and later himself.

 

Note: The Su-37 model found in CombatACE and ported from HAWX has a mapping issue, where both wings use the same part of the texture. This means that the left wing is always mirrored from the right wing. Sorry, I can't do anything about it :(

 

Thanks for downloading, and good hunting!

Pity we don't have a proper and legal Su-37. Thanks for the skinpack anyway. Anything that is AC related makes me excited. Can't wait for AC7.

 

BTW, just for the readers' interest, Yellow 13 is actually based on WW2 German ace Hans-Joachim Marseille. Ace Combat might tell fictional stories in a fictional world, but there are many connections to our real world history, myths and legends.

The "Yellow" nickname isn't because of their bellies.  It's because of the color of their bort numbers.  Also because Erusean Air Force callsigns appear to be based on colors.  But still awesome to see this.

Damn I just watchet AC04's cutscenes and realized that. Thanks for the heads up!
