In collaboration with Yae Sakura...
VF-211 Fighting Checkmates first CAG aircraft after transitioning from F-8 Crusaders, Bureau Number 159636, representing their transitional period with VF-24 Fighting Checkmates at Naval Air Station Fallon.
Included:
- Livery of VF-211's first CAG F-14 Tomcat, Bureau Number 159636
- Custom AIM-7F Livery, in a bright white with golden-yellow & black stripes, intended to imitate a hi-vis AIM-7F
- Custom AIM-54A Livery, intended to imitate a more period accurate AIM-54A Phoenix
- Custom helmets which are as close to VF-211's helmets during 1976
- Custom TARPS with upscaled textures. Not accurate to timeframe, but at least it is not a beaten-up gray TARPS

NOTE(s):
- The package will not display correctly without the CAG AND CO aircraft, as the rest of the liveries pull from the CAG + CO to reduce file size.
- The CAG jet is in a .rar file due to added textures resulting in the .zip format bloating to an excess of 300MB, which prohibits the upload. Though simply extracting it to the CoreMods F-14A liveries folder is acceptable, I recommend compressing it in .zip on your own machine to reduce the amount of space this livery will take up.
- Due to some confusion, it must be addressed that the .zip liveries can only be(as far as I'm aware of as of right now), in the CoreMods folders, not the Saved Games folders. Please drop the package of .zips within CoreMods/aircraft/F14/Liveries/F-14A-135-GR instead of a Saved Games liveries folder.
