This helmet pack was also created with the help of cobra_B39. Working from original squadron photos and videos, we worked together to replicate details as closely as possible to actual squadron designs. Together, we are pleased to bring these F/A-18 helmets to the DCS community.  

In this pack, you get HGU-55 and HGU-68 (JHMCS) helmet variants featuring squadron art for:  

- VFA 27 Royal Maces
- VFA 34 Blue Blasters different HMD skins
- VFA 37 Raging Bulls
- VFA 83 Rampagers
- VFA 143 Puckin Dogs
- VFA 192 Golden Dragons
- VFA 232 Red Devils

Installation:
Copy and paste the six .dds files into the livery folder of your choice.
Insert or overwrite these lines in the description.lua file.

    {"pilot_F18_helmet_hmd", 0, "pilot_f18_helmet_hmd",false};
    {"pilot_F18_helmet_hmd", 1, "pilot_f18_helmet_hmd_nm",false};
    {"pilot_F18_helmet_hmd", ROUGHNESS_METALLIC, "pilot_f18_helmet_hmd_roughmet",false};
    {"pilot_F18_helmet", 0, "pilot_f18_helmet",false};
    {"pilot_F18_helmet", 1, "pilot_f18_helmet_nm",false};
    {"pilot_F18_helmet", ROUGHNESS_METALLIC, "pilot_f18_helmet_roughmet",false};

Special for the Blue Blasters helmet with the stripes on the JHMCS mount, insert this line to:
{"pilot_F18_helmet_details",    DIFFUSE            ,    "pilot_f18_helmet_details", false};

If you wish to see the HGU55 helmet instead of the JHMCS version, add these lines at the end of your description.lua file
