These skins were inspired by the AIDC F-CK-1 Ching Kuo fighters assigned to 7th TFG, 427th TFW, ROC (Taiwan) Air Force, at Ching Chuan Kang Air Base.  Both a low-viz camouflage and a high-viz airshow demo livery were included.

Fictional Hornet skin using real Royal Navy markings.

F-18C Hornet in Royal Navy markings.

Instead of building the new Queen Elizabeth carriers it was decided that it would be cheaper to purchase one o f the Nimitz class carriers from the States with a side order of F-18C Hornets. An old squadron of the Fleet Air Arm was recommissioned to fly from the carrier. The squadron chosen was 800 Naval Air Squadron that had served aboard HMS Eagle.

This gave the Royal Navy a much bigger strike capability than the old ski jump carriers could offer.

Satoru Kanzaki's F/A-18, appears only in the manga to my knowledge. The manga version was a pitch black F/A-18A (yes, A variant, the C one is used instead for obvious reasons) with virtually no other distinguishing features which is kind of boring, so this one is loosely based on some random model kit(?) interpretations of his livery.

version 2.9.A001 updated October 19, 2023

1.  Unlimited fuel for wingman -  Script added so when wingman's fuel is below 50% internal tanks, the fuel level is frozen.  No more wingmen running out of fuel during a mission due to AI behaviour.  (If they use the tanker, the fuel will go to 100% and stay there).

2.  Adjusted some triggers and scripts for better gameplay.

3.  Changed version numbering to be similar to DCS version numbering.

This mod will allow JTAC's to read out your target coordinates in the format of your choosing instead of just the grid reference, allowing you to easily create a new waypoint at the target, or enter them into a JDAM or JSOW for a highly accurate strike. Now there's no more need to stop flying and convert the coordinates to the proper format, you can simply find your targets no matter where they are on the map and then take them out with precision. Passes the integrity check as well!
