Turn: The US empire is no longer acting! Recently, the VFC-12 Squadron directly unveiled the newly painted imaginary aircraft and pilot armbands on Facebook!
The Mi Naval Air Force has always had the VFC-12 Fighter Squadron Composite Twelve VFC-12, and its main job is to serve as a hypothetical enemy aircraft and coordinate real aircraft air combat training!
In the past, the older F-5E was replaced by the F/A-18C Hornet to paint the Russian SU series fighters as hypothetical enemy aircraft. Recently replaced by the F/A-18E Super Hornet, painted as an Air Force Jet-11B standard livery (Figures 1 and 2) as a hypothetical enemy aircraft!
On the armband of the VFC-12 pilot's flight suit (Fig. 3), there are 5 simplified characters "sticks and stones". "Sticks and stones" is an English proverb, originally "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me", which means to advise people not to pay too much attention to and ignore each other when they face verbal harm from others.
These photo messages were posted directly on VFC-12's official Facebook page, and I was too lazy to even cover up!
