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).

A mainstay of Carrier Aviation, VF-14 Would split from their longtime sister squadron VF-616 “Gargoyles” at the turn of the century. Leading Carrier Air Wing 23 aboard the OFS Barbet, the Snakes would deploy on a cruise to Usea in 2005, to protect Osean interests in the region from the ongoing conflict in the region.

During the Circum-Pacific War, the Squadron was still in its training phase and was relegated to shore duty, while their Carrier would be lost in the conflict. CVW-23 would transfer aboard the surviving OFS Hubert until 2015 with the commissioning of the OFS Barbet, another Hubert-class Supercarrier. During the Lighthouse War, VF-14 Would transfer along with other CVW-23 Elements aboard OFS Vulture, participating in various combat missions during the conflict.

Today, the Snakes exist as a relic, one of the final F-14B squadrons in the fleet, as well as a pending unit closure may make this storied Squadron a thing of history.

While not as glamorous as the Fighters or Strikers, its hard to say that Electronic Attack Squadron 133 doesn’t pull their own weight when it comes to air wing operations aboard the OFS Vulture.

Established as a EA-6B Squadron in 1991, they would serve aboard the OFS Buzzards reserve air wing throughout the Belkan war and Circum-Pacific wars until 2011 with their Transfer to Carrier Air Wing 7 aboard the recently commissioned OFS Vulture.

In 2019, the Squadron would be shore-side during most of the Lighthouse War, providing Electronic Warfare support to IUN Forces. In 2020, VAQ-133 would regroup and return with the rest of Air Wing 7 to Osea, and is currently in their workup phase for a 2024 deployment.

Established in 1982 at NAS Meridian, StrikeFitron 112 ‘Paladins’ would become one of the first stood up F/A-18 Hornet squadrons within the OMDF, and notably, made primarily fr om members of the F-14 Community, pulling pilots from both the VF-12 ‘Knights’ and  VF-83 ‘Warhawks’. Carrying over most of the traditions from the Knights, VFA-112 would earn their battle colors in 1993 during the ‘January Fifth Incident’, wh ere Paladin Hornets would shoot down four F-5N fighters from Sotoa.

The Paladins would continue to serve throughout the 1990s and 2000’s, During the Belkan War, and again during the Continental War flying against Yuktobanian Forces. In 2020 following a hectic deployment to Usea, the Paladins were largely slated for a training rotation before workups for a 2024 Anean Deployment, though rumors from the Osean Department of State may pit the Paladins, and rest of Carrier Air Wing 7, for a deployment to Verusea far sooner.

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.

A longtime component of the Maritime Defense Force Reserve, VF-181 'Rough Riders' now stands as one of the final F-14 Squadrons in Osea. With the pending retirement of the type, the Rough Riders have the inevitable task of not only being one of the final deployable reservist Squadrons in the OMDF, But also taking on Foreign Military Training for the F-14 following the Fleet Replacement Squadron, VF-228 reclassification into a deployable unit in 2017, before its eventual total loss during the Lighthouse War in 2019. Since then, the Airmen of VF-181 Have been busy, regardless of full or part-time status, They all seek to preserve the legacy of the Rough Riders until the very end.

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.

Strike Fighter Squadron 216, otherwise known as the "Fightin Fists", is an Osean Maritime Defense Force Reserve Squadron based at Heirelark Air Force Base in North Osea.

Flying Su-33 'Flankers' Purchased from Yuktobania in 1997, the Squadron is a part of the OMDFs Tactical Support Wing, which provides Red Air adversarial training for Osean Forces. Based in Heirelark, the Flankers of the Fists are more often than not working alongside Fulcrums from the 173rd Fighter Squadron nearby, providing the students of Heirelark hard-learned lessons in the more forgiving training environment instead of on the battlefield.

The unit is not geographically limited, notably in 2017 participating in Carrier trails aboard the OFS Barbet, which was one of the first times in OMDF History for a STOBAR aircraft to be launched and recovered from a traditional CATOBAR flight deck.
