Mikoyan MiG-21bis 'Paran' for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2
This is a very simple mod of the stock Third Wire MiG-21bis to create a fictional export version in service with the Parani Air Force during 1978-2002. The skin is by Paulopanz and I've added a matching drop tank and a fictional Parani missile named 'Zulfiqar' (basically a license-built version of the R.550 Matra Magic) with a matching skin. It goes without saying that you must have the stock MiG-21bis in your install but the skin could be renamed to fit most other stock MiG-21's.

INSTRUCTIONS
1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the MiG-21bisP folder into your Aircraft folder.
2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the MiG-21bisP folder into your main Decals folder.
3. From the PILOTS folder drag and drop the PILOT_PARAN folder into you main Pilots folder.
4. From the SOUNDS folder drag and drop the SOVIET_DRY and SOVIET_WET files into your main Sounds folder.
5. From the WEAPONS folder drag and drop the TANK_MiG21BISP and ZULFIQAR folders into your main Weapons folder.
That's it!

Version 2 - 29/01/19  

Reworked pack of F-101A and C VooDoo.
Generally old good VooDoo in new dresses.
There are some small changes in data.ini files mostly in weapon stations section - so Backup your original file. You might not like it.
 
Despite VooDoo is extremely sexy aircraft it is much useless. Unfortunately. It was designed to be something different but had to serve in a totally different role. Nuclear Strike Aircraft. 
Because I'm always doing mods my way - to fit my needs. I wanted to have squadrons that used  "fighting 101". So the thing is...this is one aircraft -  because squadrons contained a mix of A and C versions and this aircraft had very limited use I decided to make one aircraft to cover both A and C version.
By default, I used A version limits.   Anyway, differences were only in the internal structure of airframe. 
Airframe 54-1491 served as CO aircraft in 27th TFW. So in the early sixties, it will pop up in special markings for 78th, 91st, and 92nd squadrons. 
If you want separate aircraft A and C you will have to do it on your own. Decals/serials for C are marked in numbers.lst with 'dot' .  
 
All new skins in 3072x3072 resolution. New bump maps and specular maps. also in 3072.. plus decals to cover A and C models serial numbers.
Pack contains 11 skin sets for early use by 27th TFW and then 81st TFW - all squadrons that ever used F-101A / C  (from different time periods to cover years of usage).
All new decals consisting of 95 serial numbers for block 20-35 of A version and block  40-55 for C version. 

Backup your original F-101 Folders. Also Decals!
Pack also includes the Mk.7 Tactical Nuclear Bomb.  New model quickly made for purposes of this pack. 
 
And an extra thing for squadron/wing geeks - set of skins for squadron hack.

Have Fun.
May the VooDoo be with you.

Republic F-105H Thunderchief for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2
This is a very simple mod of the stock Third Wire F-105D to create a fictional export version in service with the Hellenic Air Force during the 1967-1982 timeline.
Markings are included for the 340th Fighter-Bomber Squadron and the 341st Fighter-Bomber Squadron with the latter having the stock sharkmouth - easily switched to both or neither. A patch template is also included in case you'd like to add your own HAF squadron. 

INSTRUCTIONS
1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the F-105H folder into your Aircraft folder.
2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the F-105H folder into your main Decals folder.
3. From the PILOTS folder drag and drop the PILOT_HAF folder into you main Pilots folder.

Ilyushin IL-28 'Beagle' for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2
This is a very simple mod of the stock Third Wire IL-28 to give a flyable (and fictional) IL-28 in service with the Fuerza Aérea Argentina  with markings for;
Grupo 1 de Bombardeo in the silver scheme as delivered.
Grupo 2 de Bombardeo in the later 'sea grey' scheme selected for 'over-water' operations.
I've put a patch.psd 'template' in there in case you'd like to switch things around and have both in silver or both in grey.

COCKPIT
I've used the A-4B pit as I think the cockpit framing looks quite suitable and the pit is nice and low-tech. The disadvantages are that there is no radar (not that the Beagle's radar was of much use) and that the A-4B pit is, of course, single-enginned. However, you can easily switch to another stock pit or go third-party.
 
INSTRUCTIONS
1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the IL-28_FAA folder into your Aircraft folder.
2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the IL-28_FAA folder into your Decals folder.
3. From the PILOTS folder drag and drop the PILOT_COAN folder into your Pilots folder.
That's it!

Yakarov79's MT-LB APC
                            
Hello Everyone,  Yarkarov79 came up with a Soviet MT-LB APC with no Data ini with it so I created one for his great piece of work. This APC comes with three skins Camo, Green, and Tan.
         "Only for FREEWARE CombatAce use"
 I created the Data ini for Yakarov79's MT-LB APC using information from Wikipedia.  This is a good all-rounder to have in all the SF2 series and mods.  This unit has been tested in SF2E latest version with all games merged.
/// Credits ----Special Thanks to:
--Yakarov79 for the lod and skins.
--Gun creater for the 12MM_NSVT
--Mue's tool box, a must have tool.
--Especially for the rest of the community for the inspiration and hard work everyone does.

Please Enjoy!
Cheers
