Based on Tomcatter87's S-3B skin pack version 1.6 for the 3D model of the S-3B Viking introduced in DCS version 2.9. It contains all seven low-viz liveries for VS-24 as they were on the 2005-2006 deployment with CVW-8 aboard USS THEODORE ROOSEVELT (CVN-71).

This pack includes four aircraft of VS-30 fr om their 2002 Mediterranean/North Arabian Sea cruise with CVW-17 aboard USS George Washington. As part of this deployment, VS-30 provided aerial refueling, electronic warfare and command and control tasks in support of Operation Enduring Freedom from July to September 2002. Included are one high-viz and three low-viz skins: 700, 701, 703 and 704. This skin-pack replicates these four aircraft as they were painted on that particular deployment with authentic bureau numbers, aircrew names (wh ere available) and various decals/logos. Special thanks to Tomcatter87 for letting me use his engine texture sheet as a basis. Skins for the rest of the airwing for that deployment are also available in the user files section.
