Aermacchi MB-339A for SF2
By ID(io)T Team
Macchi MB 339A Version 2.0 for Strike Fighter 2 by ID(io)T Team
Development and operational history
Aermacchi went on to perform an effective "facelift" on the MB-326 to create the "MB-339", a modernized derivative. The first of two "MB-339X" prototypes performed its initial flight on 12 August 1976, with the second following on 20 May 1977. The first of 107 production "MB-339A" trainers for the AMI performed its initial flight on 20 July 1978, with the type entering service in 1979.
The MB-339 retained substantial commonality with the MB-326, differing mainly in a new forward fuselage with a raised cockpit, and twin ventral fins plus a taller tailfin to compensate for the loss in yaw stability due to the new forward fuselage. The MB-339 also featured updated systems, particularly rocket-boosted SICAMB / Martin Baker Mark 1T-10F ejection seats with "zero zero" (zero speed zero altitude) capability. However, the MB-339 retained the Viper 632-43 engine; Aermacchi had seriously considered replacing it with a more modern and fuel-economical engine, but the Viper was cheap, reliable, and had good performance. The engine was license-built by Piaggio. The MB-339 retained the six stores pylons of the MB-326G. It did not have built-in cannon, but cannon pods, dumb bombs, and rocket launchers were qualified as stores for the light attack role.The MB-339 has been export in Argentina where ten "MB-339AA" were obtained by the Argentine Navy (ARA), with the type operating against the British during the Falklands War in 1982. Other MB-339A users included Dubai (seven), Ghana (four), Malaysia (thirteen MB-339AM), Nigeria (twelve MB-339AN), and Peru (sixteen MB-339AP).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The War Trial
Lt Guillermo Owen Crippa, a young Argentine Fleet Air Arm pilot, was tasked as No 2 of an armed patrol from Stanley airfield shortly after sun-up. The other Aermacchi jet trainer became unserviceable, so Crippa launched on his own. Near Jersey Point he spotted a Royal Navy Lynx helicopter, but as he pulled up to dive on it, he also sighted the ‘enemy’ invasion force anchored in San Carlos Water. Crippa broke off, reported his discovery of the British to his controller in Stanley – and then announced his intention to attack.
At low level and high speed he emerged from the radar shadow of Fanning Head, and fired all his podded Zuni rockets at HMS ARGONAUT. Crippa then engaged a RFA stores ship with his 30mm DEFA cannon, and before exiting the combat zone, took notes on the number and types of ship sheltering in San Carlos Water. He was subsequently awarded Argentina’s highest decoration for valour in combat. The British were also given a first taste of the courage and determination that characterizes Argentine military aviators.

F-14A SEA Camouflage
By SayethWhaaaa
This is an unfinished conversion of the IRIAF desert camouflage to a generic SEA one. It's rough... very rough and needs some cleaning up. I'm only uploading it as a few people have asked me this past year and I never seem to get the chance to finish it.
This was made for use with the Mirage Factory F-14A Tomcats (BPAO's one)for the first gen series of Wings Over. It could be used for the 2nd gen if anyone wants to update it. If so, be my guest. Might look a bit dodgy in the SF2 series as is.
Thanks to Column5 and Sundowner for making the template/IRIAF.

Spitfire MkVb, Op. Spotter, March 1942
By ndicki
Spitfire MkVb, No.249 Sqn RAF, Takali, Malta, March 1942
Malta stands in a key position in the middle of the Mediterranean, between Sicily and Libya, right on the main supply route for Axis forces in North Africa. For this reason, it came under constant attack from mid-1940 until late 1942 when the Allies took the initiative in North Africa. This is the longest siege in both British and Maltese history, and on 15th April 1942 King George VI awarded the island with the George Cross as a token of respect for its dogged and determined resistance.
Initially, Malta was defended only by a handful of worn out Hurricanes which nonetheless gave a good account of themselves, but they were clearly not a match for the latest Bf109F fighters deployed by the Luftwaffe. The choice was simple - supply the island with Spitfires, or lose it.
The difficult part of the operation involved actually getting the Spitfires to Malta in the first place. Shipping was being lost at an alarming rate, yet with the limited range of the Spitfire, flying them from Gibraltar was impossible. Finally, an underbelly slipper tank was designed, and a plan began to come together. The aircraft would be carried aboard HMS Eagle to a point off the Algerian coast from which they would be able to reach Malta with their last drops of fuel.
The Spitfires were shipped to Gibraltar, assembled and made ready. The Eagle took them aboard and sailed to the fly-off point, dangerously close to a hostile coast... Only to find that the extra fuel tanks would not work owing to an undetected air-lock. The Navy was furious...
On the second attempt on 7th March 1942, however, all aircraft bar one with fuel feed trouble took off successfully under the command of S/L Stan Grant, and flew the 660 mile journey to Malta without mishap. The way was open and Malta would survive.
By the time the next delivery of a further 9 Spitfires took place two weeks later, only two of this initial batch were still airworthy.
Serial numbers in this pack correspond to the aircraft used in Operation Spotter. All 16 were newly-built MkVb(T) aircraft, which explains their consecutive serial numbers. They were delivered in the typical Desert scheme of Midstone, Dark Earth and Azure Blue, and at the time of their epic flight, they did not yet carry individual letters. I have assigned these letters on a purely hypothetical basis as I have not been able to determine if they were in fact carried during service with 249 Sqn or not.
For use ONLY with SF2 including the Israel Expansion Pack. This will NOT work if you do not have the stock TW Spitfires installed and working.
Includes 2048 and 1024 size skin sheets.

MiG-21D LanceR-A ROMANIAN AIR FORCE
By BetaHouse
MiG-21D Lancer-A ROMANIAN AIR FORCE
The "A" model is specialized for groundnd attack and light bombing.
Beginning in 1993, Russia did not offer spare parts for the MiG-23 and MiG-29 for the Romanian Air Force. Initially, this was the context for the modernization of the Romanian MiG-21's with Elbit Systems, and because it was easier for the Romanians to maintain these fighter jets. A total of 110 MiG-21s were modernized under the LanceR designation. Today, only 48 LanceRs are operational for the RoAF. It can use both Western and Eastern armament such as the R-60M, R-73, Magic 2, or Python III missiles. They will be replaced in 2012 when new fighter jets will arrive, such as the F-16, F/A-18, Eurofighter Typhoon or Gripen. However due to lack of funds the MiG-21 LanceR may fly for years longer.
INSTALLING INSTRUCTIONS:
1) Extract the LancerA folder to Aircraft folder.
2)Open NATIONS.ini located in Flight folder.

Arab MiG-21MF skins for WOI
By ekek
Hi everyone,
Here are three skins for WOI MiG-21MF. They are based on one of the original TW skins but these skins give more styles of this camo. I think it adds character to the planes.
I did not add the decals.ini/texture.ini files to the skin because I think it could be fun to let people choose what nationality they want to use the skins for. These skins can be used for Syrian, Egyptian, Iraqi or any other Mid-East used of the MiG-21MF.
Drop the skins in the plane's folder and use whatever decals/texture files you want with them.
P.S. These skins can be used in WOE,WOV as well as in SF2.
Have fun!

Spitfire MkVb, No.401 Sqn RAF, 1942
By ndicki
Spitfire MkVb, No.401 (Canadian) Sqn RAF, Gravesend, May 1942
Originally No.1 Sqn RCAF, the squadron became operational on Hurricane at Northolt in August 1940 after a period of in-theatre training. After the Battle of Britain, in which it was reasonably successful, it was moved to Prestwick in Scotland. Shortly after returning to the South to Digby in February 1941, it was renumbered to No.401 to avoid confusion with No.1 Sqn RAF. Spitfire MkIIs replaced the Hurricanes in September 1941, and were themselves replaced by MkVbs before the end of 1941. These aircraft remained until their replacement, in turn, with the new MkIX in the course of the late summer of 1942, making 401 one of the first squadrons to operate the MkIX. In October 1941, 401 had moved from Digby to Biggin Hill, carrying out offensive sweeps over Northern France.
Serial numbers in this pack correspond to MkVb aircraft used by 401 Squadron during 1942, although many of these aircraft were on strength only for some days, for obvious reasons. Where a pilot has been identified as having flown a particular aircraft (The Royal Air Force did not attribute aircraft to particular pilots, although many did tend to have their favourites) that pilot has been listed in the menu. Aircraft of note are Pilot Officer Don Blakeslee's BL753 'H' and Pilot Officer Don Morrison's BM373 'F'. Aircraft appearing in the menu without an asterisk carry the correct individual letter for that aircraft.
This Ocean Grey/Dark Green/Medium Sea Grey Day Fighter Scheme was introduced wef August 1941, although its implementation lasted up until at least the end of 1941. This original shade of Ocean grey, not to be confused with the shade standardised in mid-1942, was ordered to be mixed from seven parts Medium Sea Grey to one part Night and applied on-squadron. In practice, while it could vary wildly, it was generally darker than the later, factory-produced shade, and lacked the blueish hue. It is typical of the period running from late 1941 until the autumn or even winter of 1942.
For use ONLY with SF2 including the Israel Expansion Pack. This will NOT work if you do not have the stock TW Spitfires installed and working.
Includes 2048 and 1024 size skin sheets.

LHA for SF2
By JSF_Aggie
****************************************************************************
*** LHA Assault Ship For SF2 ***
****************************************************************************
This is an update and repaint to Kesselbrut's LHA Assault Ship.
HrntFixr's HMLA 269 Cobra skin was used for the static Cobra's.
Please do not include in any payware mods.
****************************************************************************
*** Installation ***
****************************************************************************
Copy the contents of the LHA_SF2 folder into your SF2 MOD folder.
****************************************************************************
*** USE ***
****************************************************************************
Decals where included for the following ships, make sure "ShipNumber" is
correctly set:
LHA 1 USS TARAWA
LHA 2 USS SAIPAN
LHA 3 USS BELLEAU WOOD
LHA 4 USS NASSAU
LHA 5 USS PELELIU
AI aircraft do not use thrust vectoring, so there are workarounds used.
Catapults are used so they will get airborne, and arrestor cables are used
to get them back aboard.
The two parked AV-8B's are placed there via catapults 5 & 6. These
catapults have an infinate launch time. This means you have to have 6
members in your flight for them to show, and #5 & #6 will never take off,
unless you <ALT+N>.
Remove the two lines from LHA_DATA.INI if you don't want cat's 5 & 6:
SystemName[008]=Cat5
SystemName[009]=Cat6
"Carrier_Take-Off Harrier.MSN" is included as an example. You have to have
the stock VietnamSEA terrain and the AV-8B_da aircraft for the mission to
show up in-game.
Finally, some of the textures are extremely large. Down-size them if
needed.
Post at CombatAce if you have any other questions.
