The River Rattlers out of NAS NO are one of two remaining navy squadrons trained on red air tactics. Basically the stuff Viper and Jester did in Top Gun. They cross train with contract companies that fly Kfir, A-4s, etc and fight Navy and Air Force pilots.


VCF-204, formerly VFA-204. I thought they flew the F-5N/F. Wasn't aware the USAF flew in Top Gun..unless 204 goes to Red Flag

We went to Red Flag in Hornets when I flew at 204. I would imagine with the drawdown of the adversary fleet VFC-204 and their F-5s well be fairly regular particpants.
