FSX Acceleration Irish Air Corps F/A-18 Hornet

Irish Air Corps-themed F/A-18 Hornet livery refreshes the default jet with authentic-style markings and a crisp finish for fast-jet flying and screenshots in FSX Acceleration. Requires the stock FA-18 model and adds a plausible, fictional service scheme with matching tail codes and military identity details for the virtual cockpit aircraft selection menu.
