F-5N Tiger II 761548
VFC-111 "Sun Downers"
NAS Key West, Florida
2007
This 3d model is based on the very nice file404 product with various changes. I painted the camouflage and markings in Mudbox and GIMP using reference photos of the real aircraft.
Sunset is from a photo while the ramp is made by me.
The real F-5N depicted was originally J-3023 with the Swiss Air Force.
Fighter Squadron Composite 111 (VFC-111) Sun Downers is a US Navy Reserve adversary squadron based at Naval Air Station Key West, Florida. VFC-111 assumed its 'Sun Downer' insignia, callsign, and traditions from the VF-111 Sun Downers, a famous U.S. Navy fighter squadron, that was disestablished as a fleet F-14 Tomcat squadron at then-NAS Miramar, California in 1995.
