Established in 1975, VMF-78, along with their sister squadron VMF-24, were an experiment within the largely overlooked Osean Marine Corps aviation branch. Taking the then state-of-the-art fighters, the Marines would learn to use them as close-air-support fighter-bombers. First with standard iron bombs during counter insurgency operations in Adama during the 1977 uprising; And then later using Laser-guided munitions with their LANTRIN upgrade before the Belkan war. With their precision weapons, the Marines would launch multiple raids against hardened Belkan positions on the western front, helping eventually push the Belkans into a full retreat.
Today the pilots of VMF-78 await for their next mission at MCAS McClusky on Osea’s west coast, on an ever vigilant watch for any enemies who may come.
