U.S.Navy Strikemasters?

Can anyone supply me with more information on this very unlikely formation of ‘U.S.Marines Corps’ Strikemasters? Are they a display team, painted up for a movie,or just a bunch of like-minded enthusiasts? What are the individual histories of each aircraft, owners and bases?

The real McCoy

Just to prove this photo is not complete fantasy, the owner of the ‘real’ Strikemaster from which this montage was made has owned up and submitted a photo of his aircraft. It is actually c/n329 (on tail)former Saudi Strikemaster Mk.80 ‘1116’ and now flies in the States as N167X.

A photoshop job I believe. The scheme is geniune though.

Thanks very much Mark – at least ONE is genuine and thanks for info! I did wonder about its authenticity. Does anyone have a photo of the genuine one?
