Established in 1982 at NAS Meridian, StrikeFitron 112 ‘Paladins’ would become one of the first stood up F/A-18 Hornet squadrons within the OMDF, and notably, made primarily fr om members of the F-14 Community, pulling pilots from both the VF-12 ‘Knights’ and VF-83 ‘Warhawks’. Carrying over most of the traditions from the Knights, VFA-112 would earn their battle colors in 1993 during the ‘January Fifth Incident’, wh ere Paladin Hornets would shoot down four F-5N fighters from Sotoa.
The Paladins would continue to serve throughout the 1990s and 2000’s, During the Belkan War, and again during the Continental War flying against Yuktobanian Forces. In 2020 following a hectic deployment to Usea, the Paladins were largely slated for a training rotation before workups for a 2024 Anean Deployment, though rumors from the Osean Department of State may pit the Paladins, and rest of Carrier Air Wing 7, for a deployment to Verusea far sooner.
