Strike Fighters by Thirdwire

This is a modification of the stock Cargo Ship. I have added two .50 caliber machine guns for air defence. It may not be a big deal for fast moving F-18s or Su-27s, but it is definitely dangerous for low-alt aircrafts.
 
For now, it has only these machine guns. I plan to upload a new ship in the future, armed with machine guns and portable SAMs. Thanks Wrench for your help!
 
No read me file. Just drop the ArmedCargoShip forler into your Ground Objects folder. Check you have a weapons pack installed, that has the .50 cal.
 
 
I hope you like it!

India's first indigenous fighter, built by HAL and designed by Prof Kurt Tank of Focke-Wulf fame. The aircraft first flew in 1964 and was in service till the mid-80s (the last planes retired in 1990). Three Squadrons Nos 10, 31 and 220 Squadron operated the Maruts over time. A total of 112 Single Seaters and 18 Two seaters were produced.
 
6 new skins, working AA Rockets put in place, openable cockpit (Key=0) without pilot's head cutting, no more bumping in taxing, sounds, new SF-2 screens.
 
Marut is one of my favorite plane ever. This is an old model. I made my best to upgrade and dress. It'ld worth some 3D care.
INSTALL
Put the sounds and weapon folder content in your SF-2 mod folder.
(*)As this is not a complete plane You will need to ad lod files to D/L from A-TEAM site to put them in Aircraft/Marut folder
That’s all

This is the Mirage Factory original model updated for SF-2, with my decalset and Spillone's soundtrack, folowing Sandesh hints.
 
I think is useful for new Arthur's 1965 campaign to portrait n. 28 Squadron line up.

@ paulopanz

Please understand that due to game engine limitations this will not play out exactly like the war did historically,
and due to my own personal time limitations, I was not able to do enough research to accurately name all of the ground
units and some of the air-units.
 
Also, I am in no way making any political statement regarding the war that occurred in 1965.
 
To install:
 
Merge the contents of the IndPak65 folder inside the .zip file into your preferred modfolder.
It is recommended that you create a dedicated modfolder for all of your India/Pakistan SF2 needs, but if you know what you are doing,
you can probably merge it all into a "SF2:Everything" install, but don't ask me how if you can't do it yourself. Combatace.com has all of the info you need.
The files contain an edited _targets.ini file that only adds edited NumSquadrons= at a few airbases, especailly since most of the PAF squadrons were
stationed at one airbase near Sarghoda. (changed Mushaf, Halwara and Pathankot airbases).
Also included is a missing tile that goes with Stary's set for the terrain.
 
tested with a full-merged install, both clean and in a heavily modded folder,
You will certainly need SF2, SF2:Europe, SF2:Israel and Expansion 1
If anyone finds anything horribly wrong that I have missed, let me know ASAP, and I will fix it.
 
You will need these user made files...

everyone at CombatAce.com who has ever answered one of my many "How do I...?"
 
and to Wrench for creating this beautiful terrain, releasing the PAF F-104A and the new PAF Sabre (which I fell in love with while testing this campaign),
and allowing me to toss his targets.ini around like a cheap soda can.

This pack contains the fictional Norwegian Carrier HRM Norskehavet, escorts and aircraft.
Everything you need to make her combat capable and add her own little task force !

A "Home Grown" set of 3 psds for this aircraft. Usable in both SF/Wo* and SF2.
Unfortunaly, when I made them some years back, I left them in their 512x512 size. They may need resizing.
 
All have new panel and rivet lines. There are only 3 templates, as aircraft model is mapped in such an way that the right and left wings are identical; so when saving off the left wing psd, save as.." rightwing"

Focke-Wulf Fw 200 Condor
The Focke-Wulf Fw 200 Condor, also known as Kurier to the Allies was a German all-metal four-engine monoplane originally developed by Focke-Wulf as a long-range airliner. A Japanese request for a long-range maritime patrol aircraft led to an upgraded design that would see service with the Luftwaffe as a long-range reconnaissance and anti-shipping/maritime patrol bomber aircraft, as well as a transport aircraft for troops and VIPs.

This is a fast repaint of the F-104G Starfighter.
It represents an F-104J Starfighters as used by the Japanese Air Self Defence Force, 1962 to 1986. Since the Japanese were forbidden at the time to have have aircraft with an offensive capability, I removed everything except IRM, but any weapons you want can be re-added.
There squadrons are included, the 302 Hikotai, 206 Hilotai, and the last user of the "J" Starfighter, the Air Proving Wing at Gifu.
This is not a complete aircraft. There are no LOD's, cockpit or avionics included. To make this work properly, you must have the F-104G Starfighter from SF2 Europe, the cockpit from Strike Fighters and the DLC F-4EJ Phantom II since the serial numbers I used are from that aircraft.
Thanks to TK and his crew for the Starfighter and the game.
 
Enjoy, Pappy

Update adding Brake chute and Formation lighting.
Readme and required files included.

In 1973-75 all DDR and Poland MiG-17F and Lim-5 in good condition were retrofitted with two extra pylons à la polish Lim-6 fighter-bombers. No brake parachute in german ones.
They served in JBG-31 'Klement Gottwald' until 1986, when they were sold to Mozambique. They had original german camo or new light blue livery.
 
This little add-on came from Spillone104's and my Lim serie and can be very useful for '70-'80 Nato Figthers campaigns (or modded stock ones) to portrait LSK Jabo unit, before it was equipped with new MiG-23BN or for the long waited South African scenario. So I hope You will like it. it long waited on my HD and this evening decided to share.
 
What's in:
- a new plane version
- 2 new hardpoints (pylons) for fighter-bomber (jabo) duty;
- 3 skins

The Tigercat in Korea - A brief History
 
VMF-542 Squadron left San Diego for Japan in late August, 1950, the Tigercats being hoisted aboard the small aircraft carrier USS Cape Esperance. After arriving in Japan, the squadron was based at Itazuke AB for a short period but probably didn't operate over Korea at that time. More likely they were just placed on alert status to counter any potential inbound threats.
After the invasion at Inchon on September 15, VMF-542 began deployment to the newly captured airfield at Kimpo [K-14]. They flew their first combat missions from Kimpo on September 20. Operations from Kimpo were in support of the 1st Marine Division as it attacked northward. VMF-542 likely operated from the frozen Chosin Resevoir during that campaign. During this phase most operations were day and night interdiction, combat air support and armed recon but there is an interesting account of a VMF-542 Tigercat escorting a PR Tigercat [VMJ-1?] all the way to Vladivostok and back.
In January, 1951, VMF-542 moved back to Itazuke, Japan. From there the Tigercats conducted long range armed recon missions as well as doing some spotting for naval gunfire.
During February, 1951, VMF-542 was back in Korea, operating from Pusan [K-1] airfield.
In March, 1951, VMF-542 returned to El Toro, California, to begin training on the F3D Skynight. VMF-542's Tigercats and some pilots were transferred to VMF-513, making VMF-513 a composite squadron with both Tigercats and Corsairs. At some point after being transferred to VMF-513 the Tigercats recieved their rather famous flat black paint jobs. With VMF-513 the Tigercats were flown from Pusan mainly at night with the Corsairs operating in the day time. During the night missions the Tigercats would sometimes team up with flare dropping R4D's and PB4Y Privateers.
In June, 1951, VMF-513 moved to Kangnung [K-18], on the east coast of Korea. It was at this point the Tigercats scored there only aerial victorys, shooting down one PO-2 Biplane in June and another PO-2 in July, both shot down during night operations. From Kangnung the Tigercats also flew long night time patrols protecting the valuable radar station at Cho-do. On the return leg the Tigercats would engage any targets of opportunity. Another task was night time ground controlled radar bombing. The Tigercats would be called in by forward air controllers but the bombing run was calculated and directed by ground controlled radar operators. Yet another task was escorting B-26 Invaders during night time interdiction missions.
At the end of March, 1952, VMF-513 moved to Kunsan [K-8] airfield. The front line was quite static at this time allowing a very heavy concentration of anti-aircraft guns to be built up. For night time combat air support operations, a system was devised were two crossed searchlight beams would be used as a reference point while a FAC would give targeting directions to the Tigercat pilot, based on the position of the crossed seachlight beams. After the first Napalm bombs were dropped the FAC would give directions for further drops by referencing the position of the fire from the first drop.
In late summer, 1952, VMF-513 received twelve F3D SkyKnight fighters and the last of the Tigercats were phased out shortly after.
