hey there, this is a recreation of IAF's 105th squadron - "the scorpion squadron"
it was formed at 1950 and has a rich history of operating different aircraft such as the "P51 Mustang", "spitfire", "super mystère" and the "F-4E phantom II Kurnass" (sledgehammer). it was closed at 1987 and reopened at 1991 as an F16C/D squadron alongside with the 101 - first fighter squadron (the skulls).
since 2005 it operates only the F16D two seat barak variant and carries the role of precision/strategic ground strikes.
[updated 28/05/2020] - Tail and Intake numbers are now dynamic, also included a static tail number version of the skin with numbered fuel tanks ( its a bit more dirty too)
