FSX Acceleration VMFA-312

VMFA-312 “CAG” Checkerboards livery brings authentic U.S. Marine Corps markings to the default F/A-18 Hornet, with crisp squadron identifiers and a polished finish that stands out in the virtual cockpit and external views. Built for FSX Acceleration, it requires the stock F/A-18 model and includes a companion texture fix.
