A tad updated version of skin I made like 2 years ago or something like that. I didn't like some of the decisions I made there, and some of the details I missed so I went ahead and fixed it up here and there. Most notable is the roughness map I had no clue how to apply last time around, this time I went ahead and borrowed it from the Blue Angels livery.
DCS 2.9 rolled around and sometime between this being uploaded and today, it borked the board numbers so I went ahead and gave that a fix. Delete the old file and replace it according to the instructions below.
To install just pop the unpacked folder into here:
...\DCSWorld\CoreMods\aircraft\FA-18C\Liveries\FA-18C_hornet
The original one is available here for anyone interested:
