MiG-23MF´s Skins and Tweaks pack Part 2
 
This has been the effort of a couple of months, trying to get as accurate as possible all the MiG-23MF´s. It comprehends all Warsaw Pact planes as well as the Cuban and the Semi ficticious Kyrgyzstan AF, most of them may now match completely since the paint differed from plane to plane, and all the info i got is from internet.
 
part two includes planes from East Germany, Kyrgyzstan and Poland.
 
Also i used the cockpit made by Ordway and tweaked by Lindr2 before he dissapeared, a big thanks to both, actually this was a Lindr2`s initiative and i´m just completing it.
 
i´ve also created different folder per Nation to make it more interesting.
 
Some decals have been borrowed from previous packs, please if you feel them familiar let me know and i will give you credit.
 
INSTALLATION:
 
I´ve created a Main Folder and all you got to do is drop it´s contents in the Objects\Aircraft sub-folders, once done you can paste all the contents to the Objects folder of the SF2 game you wish and that´s it, you now will have several Warsaw Pact MiG-23MF planed ready to fly!
 
Feel free to use them only with no payware intentions, or there will be a bunch of guys hunting you for sure:)
 
A big thanks to Daniel Cocas Lieabert for all the patience to answer my questions and some of the decals made by him, to Eric Johnson who reminded of the weathering, Gepard and Soulfreak, who helped me with German numbers and all the friends i have in FB who liked the pics to complete this job.

@ paulopanz

This is a New Verison.
Model from my best friend CGmodel.
I repair a bug(when the computer(AI) control Your Wingmanlanding ,a mistake does not meet the aerodynamic)
I don't know the fighter's Cockpit,so I use the F35 Cockpit.
Thanks for Blue's Dream
Have Fun!

This is my very first camo skin never uploaded, revamped and polished.
So it's not my best work.
It will fit well in Your Yom kippur standard campaign without any other edit.
I decided to upload because I was bored of the stock silver planes with
Algerian roundels and soviet red numbers....
 
Install: as usual.
 
Credits: it seems to remember I followed a very old skin scheme, but I wasn't able to find.
 
Happy we're back.
 
 
Enjoy.

GBA I/51 France 1940
 
Potez 633 B2 (5 aircraft)
 
In 1938 France ordered 449 Potez 633s but in May that year it was decided that all light bombers must have a crew of 3, so the aircraft was developed for export only. A bomb-bay filled the space between the plot and gunner in which the bombs were hung vertically.
 
35 aircraft (4 from a Chinese order, 20 from a Romanian order and 11 from a Greek order) were allocated to various squadrons in 1939-40 to fill gaps and to help transition pilots into the Breguet 693. These aircraft have "C", "G" and "R" in their serial numbers.
 
There were 20 aircraft in combat units (GBA I/51, II/51, I/54 and II/54) when the Germans invaded on 10 May 1940. GBA II/35 received the Potez 633 later that month. Only Potez 633s of II/51 saw combat, losing 5 aircraft.
 
A further aircraft, destined for China, got as far as French Indochina before being requisitioned into the Vichy Air Force for the defence of the colony.
 
Amended DATA and LOADOUT files are included.

Project 877 Paltus (Kilo class) submarine for Strike Fighters 2
 
The Kilo class is the NATO reporting name for a naval diesel-electric submarine that is made in Russia. The original version of the vessels were designated Project 877 Paltus (Halibut) in Russia.
The boats are mainly intended for anti-shipping and anti-submarine operations in relatively shallow waters. Original Project 877 boats are equipped with Rubikon MGK-400 sonar system (with NATO reporting name Shark Gill), which includes a mine detection and avoidance sonar MG-519 Arfa (with NATO reporting name Mouse Roar). Newer Project 636 boats are equipped with improved MGK-400EM, with MG-519 Afra also upgraded to MG-519EM. The improved sonar systems have reduced the number of operators needed by sharing the same console via automation.
The first submarine entered service in the Soviet Navy in 1980, and the class remains in use with the Russian Navy. 17 vessels are believed to still be in active service with the Russian Navy, while 7 vessels are thought to be in reserve.[6] So far, 33 vessels have been exported to several countries: Algeria, People's Republic of China, India, Poland, Iran, Romania and Vietnam.

On HARD settings the gunship has a tendency to porpoise at speeds in excess of 140Kts.
Simply copy-paste into your Mi-24P folder.
