Since we have those wonderfully weathered Swordsmen skins, I think a VF-32 CAG bird is a must-have :)

(Edit: embedded picture). According to anft.net, this is an F-14B in a livery of 2005. Looking soo great...

I'm already using your VF-2 skin,but it could be a little better!smilewink.gif

In 1987 and 88 I was Assigned to the Carrier Air Wing 2 aboard the USS Ranger. VF-1 "Wolf Pack" and the VF-2 "Bounty Hunters" were in Our Wing. So, an NE on the tail and Ranger on the "glove" would look much better to me!biggrin.gif

 

 

I was shanghaied! They were short an Attack Squadron, So VMA(aw)121 got orders for "the boat"

 

 

I was a red shirt/Black stripe roof rat for the next 2 years.huh.gif

Not sure if it's the same one I have in mind, but I do have a VX-9 High Viz livery and it's awesome :D

Here’s a screenshot of the logo on the Hornet, though it is slightly different from the one on the F-14. I haven’t released it yet, but the skin will be coming out in a pack with a few other VX liveries in a week or two. Really itching to get started on these Tomcat skins!

I'm racking my brains here, I'm sure I built a Fujimi F14A as it was better detailed than the Hasegawa one at the time, and am almost 100% sure I bought some VF301 decals for it, but the marking was only the grey outline arrow, with a yellow outline on it, and I'm damned if I can find pictures of this.

 

There used to be a great series of book, A5 size, that covered the likes of the F14, Carrier Ops, Miramar, El Toro, in depth, I thought it was a Halberstadt publication, great reference books too, and again I'm convinced there were F14's from VF 301 doing carrier quals, and the yellow outline tail marking was there.

 

Does anyone have these books, or a reference to my insanity??

I'd like to take a whack at it myself when the templates come out, but definitely wanting some VF-201 Hunters schemes. They operated out of the JRB in Fort Worth and before that NAS Dallas, from what I understand they never actually got F-14Bs but had -As, some maybe with the A+ upgrades, but they had some TARPS capable birds and did A2G training. By OIF/OEF they had already transitioned to F/A-18s. But, based on their history of dropping iron from F-14s and the likelihood they would have ended up with Bs (they actually were going to get some Bs or go full B conversion but the aircraft got diverted to a different squadron, and they transitioned to F/A-18s instead in 1998?) I figured they were a logical candidate for some skins.

This pic will probably help me:

And while I'm at it doing Texas based F-14s, maybe I'll try doing VF-202 Superheats too:

discovered it wasn't VF 301, it was VF 103 Sluggers who had the yellow tail outline.. and there's already a VF 103 bird in the list of textures

i'll start to do some early '80 VF-2 liveries, and maybe other squadrons (oldy VF-102). I've really few free time lately.

I second this one... the -A model VF-2 liveries were my fav, over the "last cruise" ones

It seems like everyone has been making -A model or -D model liveries. Can we get some more proper -B model liveries?

I second that. There are some great B liveries/squadrons/eras out there that no one seems to care about. I'm looking forward to flying the A model in all those wonderful old school liveries, but I'd love to have prober B skins if I fly the Tomcat Plus.

For example, I'd wish to see that swordsmen beauty here:
