https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3319740/ VF-2 Bounty Hunters from Operation Frequent Wind are now up for download. Hopefully no hiccups this time around.

Someone ask for an Operation Frequent Wind VF-1 package? https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3319604/

First someone asks for Super Sara and now comes Indy In all seriousness though, I very much can do the other 3 Forrestal-Class carriers to act as a temporary stopgap before Heatblur actually does(if they manage to do) 60, 61, and 62. And in regards to my VF-32 package, I've been meaning to do a full revamp on it, but have not gotten around to doing so as of late. However, the CAG jet for the 1975-76 JFK Cruise has been added to the base game as it was chosen as the F-14A winner for the HB Competition early this year, if that can provide an example of the quality leap compared to the old. As of right now however... I've been wrapped up with classes and am working to correct a detail that lies on my WIP VF-1 and VF-2. After that's done, I can go to VF-14(unless if a close friend of mine still intends to get those done) and VF-32.

Well, once I get through my 70s squadrons, I do have like a... 1985 VF-1 and VF-2 in mind. Unless if someone else beats me to getting all 24 jets.

https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3319383/ Though it is not a Tomcat, I feel like this fits here. CV-61 USS Ranger reskin for the USS Forrestal is now available.

https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3316840/ VF-143 is now up for grabs~ Once again, will need the CAG(BuNo 159434) downloaded for the additional Mediafire package to function as intended.

Soon. Very soon.(Hopefully within the week)

https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3316693/ VF-142 package has now been approved and online for download~ Same as last time, separate package at Mediafire will require the CAG bird on the User Files to function properly.

Nearly finished with VF-24, just need some small corrections and a bit more testing in the event something wrong goes over my head.

RIO Helmet is not present on the LoD texture. I believe it has been mentioned to include it at some point, but uncertain. Pilot helmet template should be public along with the rest of the Tomcat's texture templates. In the event you need a link, https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1E_w3XoAQDnJq7hRMgVktS6kQV5qJUw65 Assuming that one still works and is available.

New Work In Progress, VF-24 Red Checkertails/Fighting Renegades, circa 1976.

Look for a texture that's called "HB_F14_EXT_INTAKERAMPS.dds". It might be in the F14/Textures/Diffuse_Roughmet folder.

https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3315684/ Finally live and up for download. VF-41 Black Aces on the USS Nimitz's 1977-1978 Mediterranean Cruise. I know I put it in the description, but the package in the Mediafire link will only work if the base(BuNO 160379) is already installed.

I have unfortunately hit a snag with completing my 1975-76 VF-32 package, which I've put on hold until I can find the needed information. However, work has now shifted to a remastered VF-41 Black Aces package, circa 1977-78.

https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3314534/ Super Tomcat Prototype seen as my HB Livery Competition has been approved(in record time) for distribution~

F-14B-30-GR BuNO 157986 Super Tomcat Prototype My submission for the F-14B, the 7th Grumman Prototype meant for Engine Tests. Initially acted as a testbed to the Pratt & Whitney F401-PW-400, but the Navy would cancel the order of F401 engines in favor to continue using the TF30s on the F-14As. After General Electric produced the F110-GE-400, 157986 was equipped with the new engines and would demonstrate improved kinetic performance and a longer loiter time between the F110s and the TF30s. My creation would represent an earlier paint scheme of the Super Tomcat Prototype, where the aircraft would have black bars and text as opposed to the more well-known dark blue. Also included: - Attempted recreation of an inert Sidewinder for the AIM-9L/M - Attempted recreation of an inert AIM-7E Sparrow - Inert AIM-54A Phoenix made for testing - Inert unguided A-G munitions, specifically the Mk81 to Mk84 series of unguided low and high drag bombs

F-14A-75-GR BuNO 159008 VF-32 Swordsmen: AB 200, circa 1976 My submission for the F-14A, VF-32's 00 bird in 1976. 159008 would be the first Tomcat the Swordsmen acquired as they were transitioning from the F-4 to F-14. In the timeframe of my creation, AB 200 would be displaying the Admiral Clifton Award as they were recognized as the best Navy Fighter squadron in the year prior. 159008 unfortunately would not serve for very long, having crashed near NAS Oceana late October of 1977 under the colors of VF-101 Grim Reapers, only seeing around 3-4 years worth of action before being written off. Included with the livery is a modified roughmet based off of PorcoRosso86's early Tomcat skins, along with a modified normal map of the vertical stabilizers to more closely represent the shape of the Aluminum Corogard leading edges. Also included: - Early bright-colored AIM-54A Phoenixes - Attempted recreation of AIM-7E Sparrows

I actually did that VF-142 Ghostriders skin a while back. Not up to my current standards, but the files are still available for download. The 1975/76 VF-142 one, with a separate download of... 5 additional aircraft. It might be a decent substitute for now, as I plan to redo it sometime in the future.

Work in Progress, 1975/76 VF-32 Swordsmen. AB201 has the Bicentennial Markings on its vertical stabs and both have the Admiral Clifton Awards in front of their intakes. Hoping to find more Bureau Numbers and their modex numbers to make this into a large package.

I do plan to attempt an early VF-24 Red Checkertails/Renegades package at some point down the line. Hoping that I can finish redoing all my older F-14As before that, though. My current list after remastering, although not concrete, consists of VF-24, VF-124, VF-101, VF-14, VF-213, and VF-301.

Really nice! When will those be available for download? Hoping to get them out soon, I still have to make it into a package.

Finally got around to making an ED Forums account. I'd like to share my more recent work, after building(still building) a 1970s Hi-Vis Template for the F-14. F-14A BuNO 158989, VF-302 Stallions ND 200.
