BuNo 164264 XO Jet

XO jet is the colorful one of the bunch! 

Vertical stabs are painted black only on the outside and have the "Mach-Altus" marking on the insides.  This marking is a hold over from the previous scheme that was on these jets when VMFA-122 were known as the "Crusaders".

The leading edge of each stab is red with the "Werewolves" text "ripped" through and outlined by a very thin black stripe.

The Werewolf marking is FS36375 and outlined in FS36118.  The clouds on this graphic are outlined in FS36118 and this outline is feathered since it was applied with an airbrush.

The sword is not silver but is a very pale white.  Sort of "egg-shellish" in color.

Full-color national insignia on the fuselage and no insignia on the wings as per normal USMC.

This aircraft is devoid of all stencil data other than the life-support/canopy markings and the yellow/black stencil on the inside of the nose-gear door.

Most markings are in FS37038 Black except for the BuNo, Arrestor Hook which is in FS35237 Dk Blue/Gray.

The walkway on the LEX is fuselage color and is textured as normal.  This area is not a different color like you see in other Hornets.  There is a small walkway stencil on the port side of the aircraft under the canopy sill.
