Just drop in the FA-18F folder and go fly. Further decal work from a PDF I believe by Gotrek Gunnison from that source file.

This skin represents the new VFA-11 CAG bird
 
Just drop in your FA-18F folder and go fly.
 
And thanks to Airfighters.com for references.

For the F/A-8F, this is one of the aircraft shown by VX-9 during the Century of Naval Aviation ceremony.

Still usable on the 1st Gen version, this is an updated skin of the VFA-41 CAG as deployed on the USS John C. Stennis. Simply extract the file and drop in the FA-18F folder and go fly.

Thanks to Stary here is a quick easy mod that adds Taliban SA-14 and SA-18 missiles. Read the README but most of the credits go to Stary.

Since he's having issues uploading I decided to upload it for him:
 
"Couldnt find these tanks anywhere so made one.Supplied a psd file to paint the tank as its plain grey atm"

This skin depicts an AH-64A in May 2009, simply drop in the AH-64A folder and go fly.
 
Eric Johnson, 2011

A skin for Dels' AH-64D specifically but can be used on his AH-64A as well. Simply drop the folders where they need to be and go fly. Note this is the skin only.

This is actually an EA-6B Prowler scheme that was deployed to Bagram AB, Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom, and adapted for the EA-18G Growler.

This skin represents the current scheme of the Commanding Officer's aircraft circa May 2011
 
Simply drop in your FA-18F folder and go fly...
 
Includes new panel, riveting, and detail work I've been slowly working on.
 
Thanks to Afterburner Decals for their reference image used to create this skin.

A What If of a What If skin, this is adapted solely for the F/A-18E

Part of VX-23 "Salty Dogs" this F/A-18F is from that squadron.
 
Simply drop in the FA-18F directory and go fly.

A modification of the original stock skin of Dels' F-31A Mustang, the only difference is that it's in the F-15C "Mod Eagle" scheme using the default decals from the default skin.

A loose interpretation based off a VMFAT-101 F/A-18A or C Hornet adapted for the F/A-18F. The skin tone is itself a modified version of the VFA-122 CO Desert scheme.
 
Simply drop it into the FA-18F directory and go fly. Can also work on the E version or G version as well...

By request from czarny900, this is a What If camo scheme for the F/A-18E and F versions (simply drop in the FA-18F directory) and go fly. The original camo is based off an old MiG-29 scheme, adapted for this aircraft.

This skin represents nose number "540" while conducting combat operations over Libya for Operation Odyssey Dawn/Unified Protector where the squadron was hastily deployed from supporting OIF to OOD/UP.

This goes under the double header since VFA-195 is currently transitioning to the F/A-18E but so far no newe on what the CAG jet may look like so after a request made this based on one of the current schemes (or last one).

Simply drop in your FA-18E folder and go fly. Can work for SF1 except for drop tank textures.

This is a "What If" nation missile system based off of the real SA-18 Grouse (or what I could find though internets sources).
 
It is set for the "Taliban" nation for my Afghanistan install but can be adapted of course for any map or nation:

DisplayName=Taliban

SpeechFile=USAFSpeech.cat
SpeechTextFile=USAFSpeechText.str
StartDate=1994
 
It uses Pasko's "SAM Gunner" since I have no modeling skills and is setup for SF2. It can be of course adapted for SF1 but that requires a bit of work that can be found in the SF2 Knowledge Base and is a drag and drop as all files and folders are already organized.
 
Afghanistan rules of thumb:
 
Kandahar-Shindand-Herat-Qala I Naw "ring" stay above 24,000ft MSL + for traveling. When you break that (usually 23,000 ft) you may get shot at. Other areas roughly 22,000 ft MSL + is a good altitude to stay above but again use flares conservatively. It's not very accurate but if enough are fired you will get shot down. I've seen earlier versions of this shred SEAD flights.
 
This is strictly for What If scenarios or installs rather than real world setups as so far there is no heavy use of SAMs in-country.

After finding a good resource I was able to skin this aircraft
 
Able to be used in SF1 as well as the drop tank texture is not required. Simply drop in the FA-18E folder and go fly.

Specifically for the Afghanistan terrain version done by Wrench, this adds yet more targets and CAS areas on the map. Simply overwrite and go fly.

Also included is a Nations file (optional) that has the major player countries listed (thanks to FrankD). Note however I do have Afghanistan set to enemy so if you feel inclined feel free to adjust the side status.

This is the VFA-106 scheme as part of the Centennial of Naval Aviation shown at NAS Oceana in late 2010
 
Can be sued in either SF1 or SF2
