While established in 1977, the 254th ‘Road Runners’ trace their lineage back to the 1940s with the 2774th Fighter Group of the same name, which flew P-47 Thunderbolts in the Ground attack role against Belkan forces during the conflict. Now, eighty years later,  the OA-10s of the 245th bear similar markings and the notable red and white checkered pattern to honor their tank busting heritage.

As a Tactical Air Support Squadron, the Road Runners Primary mission is Forward Air Control, marking targets for other A-10s to attack. While not officially used, the term ‘Fast FAC’, adorns many pieces of squadron esprit de corps, in reference to the first pilots assigned to the 254th who had been Fast FAC F-4 pilots during Verusea.

Today the Road Runners operate out of Shiloh, and have deployed both in Yuktobania and Verusea to support OADF operations in both theatres.

Liveries for the Peruvian P-47D Thunderbolt / 12th and 13th Squadrons

A Mustang MkIV (KH729) Y2 A - Squadron Leader Mitchell ‘Johnny’ Johnston 442 Sq. RCAF - RAF Digby (UK) June 1945.
Just extract the file and place it into your Saved Games>DCS.openbeta>Liveries>P-51D folder and BINGO!

The images have me dressed as Santa as the pilot. This is NOT the case in the actual .zipfile by the way! It was merely a way of me passing on Yuletide greetings. I wouldn't inflict ME on you as the pilot as it would probably end in tears!!
Have fun,
