Marine All-Weather Fighter Attack Squadron 224 is a United States Marine Corps F/A-18 Hornet squadron. Also known as the "Fighting Bengals", the squadron is based at Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort, South Carolina and falls under the command of Marine Aircraft Group 31 and the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing.

This skin pack includes CAG and CO birds from the 2012 deployment on the USS Enterprise, and are intended to complement the VMFA-251 line bird included with DCS World.  While the skins use the dynamic MODEXes (side numbers), the MODEXes for these skins were historically in the 400 series (400 for CAG and 401 for CO).  Each skin has a "normal" version and a weathered version.  Weathered skins have a bleached effect as if the aircraft were heavily exposed to the sun for months on end.  Normal skins include pilots with green flightsuits, while weathered skins include pilots with desert flightsuits.  Note: this skin pack is distributed as an EXE installer.

IMPORTANT: For compact installations, do not delete Saved Games\DCS, even if you exclusively use Saved Games\DCS.OpenBeta!

First bird I have painted with a fictional VMFA-214 squadron based on the actual VMA-214. Since they don't fly the F-18 They fly the AV-8B. Anyways had to change the designation to VMFA because the F-18 is a Fighter/Attack multirole bird. Anyways had to make it because I loved the TV show Bah Bah Black Sheep, and Major Gregory "Pappy" Boyington who was a real person with 28 kills during WWII. This bird's paint is influenced by the real 214's harrier, Skyhawk, as well as the real VMFA-225 CO's bird.  I was enlisted in the navy as an aviation electricians mate onboard the USS Independence CV-62. After a year and then it was all men on carriers then I switched rate to a hospital corpsman. Because women were at the hospitals. But upon graduating from that C school I was sent to the Marines to Okinawa, Korea, DesertStorm, etc.

This pack contains the combative and high visibility liveries of the VMFA-235 squadron.

I added a helmet that is similar to one a pilot had that I knew in the unit back in the early 90's.  Likewise, I have the hornet hawk patch on the right arm and the coyote brown American Flag on the left arm.  Lastly, I added desert MARPAT material to the helmet lens cover.
