A new entry has been added to Add-Ons Library, category FSX Military skins - Cold War
Description: This is an update to my repaint of the Milviz F-4J Phantom II in the colors of the VMFA-333. The VMFA-333 transitioned to the F-4 Phantom II in June 1972 and deployed on board the USS America (CVA-66) to conduct missions over Vietnam. VFMA-333 also had two deployments on board the USS Nimitz. It was during this deployment that the squadron got its only air-to-air kill when Major Lee T Lasseter, USMC along with his RIO, Capt. John D. Cummings shot down a MiG-21 over North Vietnam, near Hanoi. After the shoot down both aircraft were damaged by flak and an SA-2 SAM, which hit 5526 in the tail section. Close to running out of fuel and with 5526 on fire from the SAM hit, the pilots ejected just south of Haiphong Harbor. The incident was also the first and only all-Marine kill during the Vietnam War.
Thanks to Milviz for the excellent repaint kit.
