These are skinned based on pictures found online.  None of these aircraft stayed in the same configuration throughout their life, so I based it on one instance to get some variation.

A Fictional Viggen - 69th squadron - " The Hammers" color scheme

As the West Coast Hornet and Super Hornet Fleet Replacement Squadron, VFA-122's mission is to train Navy and Marine Corps F/A-18A/B/C/D/E/F Replacement Pilots and Weapon Systems Officers (WSOs) to support fleet commitments. Every 6 weeks a class of between 8–12 newly winged Navy pilots and Naval Flight Officers begins the 9-month training course in which they learn the basics of air-to-air and air-to-ground missions, culminating in day/night carrier qualification and subsequent assignment to fleet Hornet squadrons.

Note: The aircraft has a unique look, instead of both sides being Navy/Marine, it's labeled Navy on the right, and Marine on the left, reference the actual photos for proof.

Updated for 2.5.6, with helmet and textures.

Earlier today, after months of small-scale conflicts, Iraqi Forces launched a series of surprise attacks on almost every active Iranian airfield. Iraqi ground troops have begun an offensive along the border with Iran and are making advances into Iranian territory.

The Iraqi forces are unaware that their air attacks have done little long-term damage to the IIRAF airfields. After a few hours of hurried maintenance, the Iranian F-5E Tigers are ready to strike back!

This is a historical mission and is based on actual events. To make the sortie a bit more fun it is not an exact replica!

The mission contains an actual news broadcast from the start of the Iran-Iraq war.
