US F/A-18 aggressor scheme identification

Recommended Posts

Is anyone able to identify the scheme of the centre aircraft and ideally share a better quality image? The photo was taken through a chainlink fence at NAS Point Mugu, California last month. I've done google image searches for USN and USMC aggressor schemes and found nothing which match this.

Also a more general question prompted by my searches, are US aggressor schemes unique to the individual aircraft? When googling I didn't notice any photo at all featuring the same scheme twice.

Thanks, that was the big clue I needed.

 

This image from Reddit looks like centre aircraft. it's definitely distinctive:

Can't see it there, 'cloud' is probably the closest. I'm sure the scheme in Reddit link is the one I saw, it'd be interesting to know what the name of it is and what aircraft it's supposed to represent.
