Cold War Aircraft

VA-172 Blue Bolts


 
 



 
In September 1961, VA-172 upgraded to the A4D-2N (A-4C). VA-172 entered combat over Vietnam in August 1966 from the Roosevelt, and after a Mediterranean deployment on board the USS Shangri-la (CVA-38) in 1969, returned to Vietnam on board the Shangri-la in March 1970. The Blue Bolts lost five A4Cs and five pilots to enemy action during both war cruises. VA-172 was disestablished on 15 January 1971. ( Source: www.va-172.org)
Hope you enjoy it!

P.S.
On the drawing i took this skin from, upper wing surfaces insignia don't show, so i didn' put them; anyway, if you want them to appear, simply open the file Decals.ini in Iraq'70 folder and cancel the // i wrote in front [Decal011] and [Decal012] commands so as to enable them!

1st SOS skin & markings for the stock A1-H for SF2V (Strike Fighters Vietnam).
 
A little enhancement to give the stock A-1H a little more street cred !
 
Oh, it includes a modified ini's to make it flyable and has an opening canopy (if you haven't done so already ;) all you'll need is a 3rd party cockpit if you haven't got one.
 
Or you could just use it as AI...
 
The decals are by originally by mppd (thanks Mike !) all I've done is place them on here and also touched up the stock skin.
 
Be sure to check out column5's SFV2 enhancements and tweaks thread over at the at CA forums as it includes a more accurate loadout.
 
Oops, the readme says ctrl+9 opens the canopy, it should read shift+9. Sorry !

Good day
 
 
 

Here is a conversion of the stock WOI gray Kfir skin. It represents Kfir C2 no.882 from the hornet squadron in 1977.
I added the black and yellow triangles to the skin and the historically accurate squadron insignia to the decals folder.
Drop the skin folder into the airplane folder and Copy the decals from the 'D' folder into the general decals folder. That's it. It was tested on WOI and it works great.
 
For all I know, only one airplane (882) was painted the black & yellow triangles. If anyone wants to "generalize" the plane, you can just go into the "decals.ini" and delete the numbers at the end of the serial no. entry (kfirSN082) and then any Kfir number will be available.
 
have fun!

This scheme was painted on an F-6 in colours to symbolise the China-Pakistan friendship, during the F-6's retirement ceremony from PAF service at Samungli AB .
The ceremony actually served three purposes; to mark the retirement of the F-6, to welcome the F-7PG into service, and to celebrate the Sino-Pak friendship. The PAF began to rely on China for new technologies after the 1965 India-Pakistan War, when the US suspended its military aid to both countries. India turned to Russia for its arms support, while the F-6 became the first tangible evidence of Pakistan's relationship with China.

LSK MIG-17F SILVER
 
DDR had over 100 Mig-17Fs and Polish Lim-5s in all her regiments (JG-1/2/3/7/8/9).
The historical serial numbers are taken from Yefim Gordon’s Mig-17 by Aerofax.
 
The new decals (a complete set) are made using Carlo “Soulfreak” Vecchi’s original numbers.
 
I hope You proudly use it in your own campaigns.

This is the VF-41 skin by Column5 for the ThirdWire stock F-4J.
