In 1995 the Belkan Civil War had begun, leading to many squadrons being deployed over the holiday season with a predictable dip in morale. To combat this, some squadrons elected to repaint an aircraft in a seasonal scheme, known colloquially as Santa Cats. VF-20 was one such squadron, adorning their mascot with a Santa hat and adding festive stripes to both the tail and nose
The skin features custom ordnance textures for both AAMs and bombs as well as custom nozzles for the F110 engines
I would highly recommend using a weapons pack like this one from DSplayer, since one of the weapons with custom texture work is a GBU-31
