5 of 12 Realistic Skins for the 12 F-16`s that flew for two years during the late 80`s, early 90`s with the 527th AS, and one fictional skin.
527th Aggressor Squadron began life as the 527th Tactical Fighter Training and Aggressor Squadron in April of 1976, but this pack features the 12 (and 1 fictional) F-16`s that flew for the 527th AS from June 1988 till September 1990 when the Squadron was deactivated.
The 527th was activated again in September 2000 as the 527th Space Aggressor Squadron operating from Schriever AFB in Colorado, their current mission:
To prepare the USAF, Joint and Allied Forces for combat through realistic threat replication, training, and feedback through specialized and certified space-capable aggressors. It operates adversary space systems, develops new tactics, techniques and procedures to counter threats, and improves the US military space posture.
The 12 F-16`s that flew wore the bort numbers 1 to 6, and 11 to 16, the missing numbers were intended to be used by the 4 extra F-16 that the Squadron was supposed to receive.
Bort number 00 is fictional because I wanted to include a flagship that looked more like a flagship than the actual one (Bort 01, with the small bear on the tail).
And also the Pilot and Crewchief names are fictional because I do really like the red/yellow banners used for the names and did not want to leave them empty as I was only able to find two 527th Pilot names to put on it, so instead I opted for fictional.

p.s. for those wondering, the patch on the left shoulder is not the F-15 eagle flyer patch, but the Eagle Shooter patch :)
