You probably do not have a SWEDISH livery installed.

OS DRIVE :\Users\ USERNAME \Saved Games\DCS\Liveries\FA-18C_hornet

Example skin Swedish Air force (fictional skin) (digitalcombatsimulator.com)

@Ghostmaker mind you this skin is LUA file does not contain the latest section that controls display of bort numbers, hence it will have bort numbers all over it.

It looks like the creator of this skin did not update it for a while, but you could edit the description.lua and add this lines:

{your path}\Saved Games\DCS\Liveries\FA-18C_hornet\Fictional Swedish Airforce Splinter\description.lua

custom_args = {
    [0027] = 1, -- USN_MODEX_VERTICAL_STABILIZERS
    [1000] = 1, -- USN_MODEX_FLAPS
    [1001] = 1, -- USN_MODEX_NOSE
    [1002] = 1, -- KUWAIT_MODEX_NOSE_AND_VERTICAL_STABILIZERS
    [1003] = 1, -- AUSTRAILIA_MODEX_REAR_FUSELAGE_AND_GEAR_DOORS
    [1004] = 1, -- FINLAND_MODEX_FORWARD_FUSELAGE
    [1005] = 1, -- SWITZERLAND_MODEX_VERTICAL_STABILIZERS

Yeah, Sweden, Switzerland, hard to distinguish those two Scandinavian countries  

 

[Ghostmaker]

Haha any idea where i can get it from? No matter where i look it shows up nothing 

[Gierasimov]

The one you are after is in the game by default.
