This Super Hornet Squadron's New Cruise Video Is The Best One Yet
One of the Navy's top Super Hornet squadrons, VFA-27 "Royal Maces," have accomplished an incredible feat: Creating a cruise video that is better than their last, which was just about the best thing we have ever seen up until now. (foxtrotalpha.jalopnik.com) More...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Vietnam era paint schemes were high vis and glossy. Experience taught that shiny airplanes are easier to see from the air and ground. In the 80s the navy switched to low vis/low ir gray. The squadron co and cag planes were allowed the high vis colors paint. Rank has its privilege, lol
Nice video as is the one srobak posted.
One question regarding the paint jobs, the majority of the F-18s have the subtle dull shaded markings and there were a couple with rather bold black and yellow markings. Is there any explanation?

Awesome video, for sure!
Best of the Best!!!
As a former Royal Mace (1980-84) I'm proud of all the accomplishments of the Chargers over the years, a lot of history and tradition!
