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!

Gull Grey A-6 Intruder Skin for Third-Wire model V1.1
 
Update by Gerwin 6-4-2008..2-5-2008
 
DESCRIPTION:
I noticed the Navy Aircraft skins in WOV have been skinned
quite consistend in color and style
...except for the A-6A that is.
This skin seems to be a more blue-ish grey and the weathering
is rather thick and black.
 
I tried to overhaul the original existing skin to better fit
between the other aircraft:
The Base colors are now exactly the same as the F-8 and A-7.
The weathering was toned down and various details have been
adjusted. Also I replaced the style of the nose cone and the
fuselage air-brakes. On itself the white and yellow nose cones
and the white/grey airbrakes represent real-life appearance,
yet I do not know in which squadrons and in what
combination they actually appeared.
This skin does not include custom decals.
 
UPDATE:
In version 1.1 I weathered the skin in a way that is
consistent with the other navy aircraft. The insides of the
jet intakes have been recolored. The grey/white transitions have
been slightly relocated. The white bottom is lighter now.
The red color under the flaps does not shine trough so much now.
 
INSTALLATION:
Copy the included folder with contents to the folder that contains
the A-6 files, for example:
WOV\Objects\Aircraft\A-6A
When in the game select the skin in the loadout screen.
 
If you prefer the white nose cone you have to rename:
A-6_Texture5.bmp to A-6_Texture5_yellownose.bmp
A-6_Texture5_whitenose.bmp to A-6_Texture5.bmp
 
THANKS TO:
Third Wire for the Strike Fighters Based Games
JSF_Aggie for the recolored nose cone parts

Generic Hill Scheme F-4E+F-4G Phantom II Skin for TW+MF model
 
Update by Gerwin 6-4-2008
 
DESCRIPTION:
Wanting a good hill scheme Phantom II, I ended up using the Mirage
Factory F-4G 'Late' Skin. Over time I made the following modifications:
 
-Scaled the skin down to the default resolution 512x512.
-Replaced certain skin parts with the default texture, such as the exhaust.
-Overlayed a subtile weathering layer. raised blue saturation.
-Fixed the numbering decals for the tail.
-Erased the insignia from the skins and replaced them with decals.
-Overlayed the default panel lines on the fuselage, tail and nose.
-Adjusted various details.
-Made an F-4E suitable variant (different slimers, nose gun etc).
 
Regarding the F-4E tail codes: they are somewhat a copy of the F-4G codes.
I am a bit uncertain on the historical accuracy of this.
 
INSTALLATION:
For the F-4G skin you need to have the Mirage Factory F-4G model installed.
you can find it at http://www.column5.us
 
Copy the included folder with contents to the folder that contains
the F-4 files, for example:
WOE\Objects\Aircraft\F-4E
When in the game select the skin in the loadout screen.
 
THANKS TO:
Third Wire for the Strike Fighters Based Games.
Mirage Factory for the F-4G modification,
and base F-4G late skin (credited to Sundowner).

This is only my second attempt at skinning, so don't be too harsh!
 
The grey Jaguar scheme is the one being used by the RAF today.
 
The snow scheme was applied to a few Jaguars at Coltishall a few months ago when they went on an exercise to Norway.
 
I hope you like them!

F-86 Sabre Skins Pack 1 for SF1
Four F-86 Sabre clean skins:
1 = 3-tone Desert Camo - Fictional
1 = 2-tone Desert Camo - Fictional
1 = 3-tone SEA Camo - Semi-Fictional
1 = Silver - Non-Fictional
 
These skins are fairly clean as I'm not very good at weathering so feel free to add your own dirt.
 
They were made using my F-86 Sabre/FJ-3 Fury templates. They are in .bmp format for SF1 but they might work in SF2 with a bit of tweaking.
 
They use a mixture of default and other Sabre/Fury skin decals. As I can't release other peoples decals without their consent, you will need to find some of the decals in other Sabre/Fury releases.
 
There is included a clean skin for those that wish to use it. Just drop it into your existing Tank_F86 weapons folder. Overwrite when asked.
 
INSTALLATION: Unzip to a folder/place of your choice. Copy, Move, Drag-n-Drop or do whatever you wish to get the skins folders into your F-86 aircraft folder.

This is a pack of 2 hi rez skins for Skippybing's excellent Sea Vixen FAW1,it features marks for 899 sqn 1961/2 and 893 sqn using marks prior to 1963.
New bmp's are also included for the drop tanks and firestreak and red top missiles.

trying again.lol Tu-22 in Soviet Naval aviation colors.Semi-fictional.

This are 3 skins for Paskos MiG-15bis and are basing on the original skins of Pasko.
They represent 3 soviet Fighter Divisions who operated in 1951 over the MiG-Alley. In 1951 all MiG-15 units painted their MiG-15 with red high visibility markings to avoid misidentifications with F-86 Sabre. The markings of the units were different. All common was the red nose,but the size of the red area was different. Also the paintings on the tail were different. Some units had, other had not red tails.
The bord numbers were first 4 digit , later 3 digit. The color of the bord number was black, but also blue and red numbers were seen over Korea.
I used the black in this package, but if you want to have red numbers, feel free to change it.
The Units:
The 151. IAD fought only 4 weeks in February, lost 6 MiG's and shot down 36 US planes.
The 324.IAD was commanded by Col. Iwan Koshedub. Fough from March 1951 to January 1952. Lost 24 MiG's and shot down 215 enemy planes. Top ace was Jewgeni Pepeljajew with 19 Kills (16 confirmend by US sources).
303.IAD fought from April 1951 to February 1952. It was commanded by Col. Lobow. Top ace was Nikolai Sutjagin with 21 kills (14 confirmend by US sources). The 303.IAD shot down 302 enemy planes and lost 49 MiG-15.
