Correct panel for RFN F-8 Crusader v1.4 repaint question

I love the VFP-63 1980 repaint of the RFN Crusader by Frank Safranek! But when I add it to v1.4, it doesn't show up in the available aircraft. Looking at the aircraft.cfg file for this texture, this only thing that looks wrong is the line "panel=US" but there is no "US" panel in the zip. I tried switching to all the other panels and the repaint shows up, but, there is a black hole in the panel as if a gauge was missing. Can anyone help with this panel fix?
 
Actually, there should be a panel named "panel=US" inside the aircraft package.
Try the attached one if it solve your issue...

No, the black hole is still there. I'm wondering if it has anything to do with the plane being v1.4 and the repaint made for v1.2?
 
I suspect that the attached panel.US has been extracted from a version before v1.4 (like v1.2 maybe). BUT if you look in the v1.4 download, you should find a folder called panel.J. Perhaps this would work properly if you changed the reference in your aircraft.cfg file . . .
 
I copied and pasted the files Cockpit_I_2.dds, Cockpit_I_2_Spec.dds, Cockpit_I_3.dds, Cockpit_I_3_Spec.dds from the texture.VF211 folder to the texture.VFP-63_1980 and now I get a UHF Preset Channel gauge! Yay! I think I fixed it!
