It is a basic livery for the Forrestal, brightening lots of the deck markings, changing the Island to gray, and adding some Canadian touches to the Default Heatblur USS Forrestal.

In an alternate world under a lease agreement with the US Navy, Canada would once again have an aircraft carrier. With a strained budget, a single Forrestal-Class aircraft carrier was chosen. Not long after, the vessel was commissioned into the Canadian Armed Forces as HMCS Forrestal (CV-59).

In this mission, you will be flying a sortie into Iran. This is a mission for either the Mirage F1-CE, Mirage F1-EE, Mirage F1-BE, Mirage 2000C, F-16C, F-14B, F/A-18C, JF-17, F-15E, or F-5E-3 airframes. ***DOWNLOAD MODS in the Description to play as intended.***

Feel Free to change your weapon loadout.  Shoot down any hostile aircraft you can, then come home alive. We know you might face multiple planes of the following types that the IRIAF has at its disposal: F-4C, F14, F-5E, MiG 27, MiG 29, JF-17, Su-27, and Mirage F1BQ. Enemy airframes will be random. The waypoints are your suggested way in and out of Iran, however you can fly another route if you so desire. This route was chosen to avoid some of the more powerful SAM sites and air defenses. Upon detection, they will sortie flights to intercept you.  Updated 3-8-24 v1.1

(I will make a version with the F-4E when Heatblur releases it, don't worry)

Following the dissolution of Oseas primary Aggressors squadron, the role of an affordable offensive counter-air asset became all the more vital to OADF Readiness. As a result the 552nd AGRS was reactivated to fill this vital niche.

To even be considered for the Squadron, a pilot must have completed an instructor tour at Fighter Weapons School at Newburg Air Force Base. Following selection,  pilots attend an aggressors school at the squadron Garrison at Day AFB, Before being put on rotation for base visit temporary duty assignments.

While on assignment, pilots will go to Air Combat Command wings to host abbreviated courses on ACM and handling contested airspace; the F-5s they fly being capable of mimicking flight profiles of various adversary aircraft.

Dating back to the 1940s, the Buldoggen had actually been a unit of Osean origin. During economic downturn in the 1930s, many Osean veterans retreated to Nordlands for the better quality of life and economic certainty than they had faced in their homeland. When hostilities broke into open war in 1939, the Nordland crown was ill equipped to refuse the volunteer force he found in his adopted population. Due to its makeup of primarily expatriate Oseans, the “Bulldog” Squadron was operated more as a paramilitary force, then a legitimate arm of the Nordlands Army Aviation Brigade. Nevertheless, armed with Spitfires donated through a foreign Benefactor,  the Bulldogs would help enforce Nordlands sovereignty in the conflict against its aggressive neighbors alongside the rest of The Kingdoms military.

The Units unique culture and sacrifices would be memorialized with the integrated 117 Squadron ‘Buldoggen’ in the newly founded Royal Nordlands Air Force in 1951

VF-211 operated the F-14 Tomcat for 30 years (1975-2005), including the A and B models. The livery depicted in these skins represents the 2000-2002 period, during which the Checkmates won numerous awards for their combat strike-fighter effectiveness.

At the turn of the century, Adygea had opted to purchase 12 F-14A Tomcats from Osea. The former OMDF aircraft would transfer into the AAF in 2001 to bolster the air superiority and beyond visual range capabilities of Adygea, complimenting their aging F-4 Phantom fleet. Pilots would be trained by OMDF instructor classes in the nearly 20 years they operated during peacetime.

RCN/CAF Fictional CF-144 Livery V1.1 (17/03/2024)

This is a fictional livery based off the Royal Navy F-4’s as the basis of a what-if the Royal Canadian Navy had the funds for a new carrier and F-14’s.

There are two liveries provided.
    146 – in VF-871 colours, it is inspired by the US Navy and old RCN liveries, this is what it may have looked like before the unification of the Canadian Armed Forces.
    334 – In VF-870 colours, this is a more realistic interpretation of what a naval version of a CF-144 may have looked like in the 80s. Though colour markings are bars instead of triangles as it was difficult to make it fit the shape of the rudder.

Established in 1965 flying the F-4J, the ubiquitously known ‘Wardog’ Squadron would spend most of its career attached as a shore-based squadron, as a liaison unit under the Osean Air Defense Forces’ 5th Fighter Wing at Joint Base Sand Island.

In 1975, the Squadron would adopt their well known F-14A, flying the type through the Belkan War, and gaining considerable notoriety in Counter-Air missions in the infamous Area B7R. This glory wouldn’t save the squadron however, when in 1998 with impending budget cuts forced the Wardogs from Tomcats into the less glamorous F-5, as an associate field training squadron at Sand Island. The Squadron would gain fame, followed by infamy, during the 2010 Circum-Pacific War when pilots from the Squadron would become war hero’s dubbed ‘The Razgriz’ until when late in the war the squadron would be implicated in an espionage plot supporting Yuktobania.

As a result, Fighter Squadron 108 would be quietly retired along with dozens of other squadrons in 2011
