Description: Description The Colors & Markings Series has been designed to provide an ongoing affordable series of publications covering the paint schemes, squadron markings, special insignias, and nose art carried by many of the most important aircraft in aviation history.
The scope of this book is limited to the four Air Force aggressor squadrons that are tasked with the mission of providing realistic DACM training for the Air Force, and often for the Navy, the Marines, and the allies as well. It is true that a number of other units in the Air Force have aircraft that are painted in the same or similar types of schemes, but these fall outside the scope of this publication. The purpose of this book is to show aggressor aircraft in aggressor schemes and markings while assigned to one of the four aggressor squadrons. It is included fifty-one color photographs and many more black and white photos of the actual aircraft. Explanations are provided for the simpler schemes as well as for those for which no official documentation exists.
