Livery for the XFA-27 imitating those seen on 1980s USN F-14A Tomcats. Comes in blank form for skin slots 1-3 and custom USN-inspired Osean military markings for slots 4-6.

This type of skin has already been done a million times, I know, but I just like this era of aviation and wanted my own take on it.

For detail purposes and the "goes hard" factor I also attempted to recreate markings you may find on USN F-14s using MIL-STD-2161A (AS) and a bunch of real-life reference pictures, as well as FED-STD-595 for more accurate coloring. Textures use BC7 compression with no mipmaps. I would've also painted the inside of the landing gear doors in insignia red as well, but I ran into some goofy ahh UV mapping that prevented me from doing that.

Let me know what you think and if you encounter any bugs.
