The Boeing FA-18F Super Hornet Block III in the livery and paint scheme of the very famous VF-103, the "Jolly Rogers"

Strike Fighter Squadron 103 (VFA-103), also known as the "Jolly Rogers", is an aviation unit of the United States Navy established in 1952 and is still flying till this day in the Super Hornet.
