Default VFA-82 - and F/A-18 vs. F-15


http://www.news.navy.mil/search/disp...story_id=17006

The only sad thing in this story is the fact that another squadron with
a great history is gonna be shelved. But it reminds me about VA-55
Warhorses, disestablished while its crews fought in Desert Storm under
the flags of other squadrons.

I wonder if it is easy to pin down an F-15C flying F/A-18C? VFA-146, on
their official web site, show some great-looking proofs to that:
