1/72 US Navy A-7 Corsair II Raging Bulls

US Navy Attack Squadron 37 (VF-37) Ragin Bulls was established on July 1st, 1966, flying the A-7 Corsair II. The squadron flew the A-7 for almost 25 years, participating in numerous combat operations from Vietnam to the Perisan Gulf. The squadron finally traded its A-7s for the F/A-18C Hornet in 1990, and was redesignated Strke Fighter Squadron 37 (VFA-37). In 2007, the Ragin Bulls began swapping its F/A-18C Hornets for the two-seat F/A-18F Super Hornet and is currently transitioning its remaining F/A-18Cs to the single-seat F/A-18E Super Hornet.
