Angle of Attack Indexer mod for Strike Fighters 2:Vietnam
 
This is a mod about AOA Indexers of all stock Navy aircrafts comming with Strike Fighters 2:Vietnam. It does not include
Phantoms and Corsairs used by USAF. Use at your own risks!
 
Actually, Angle of Attack Indexers of navy aircraft are totally unusable to make carriers landings, altought the sequence
of lights are correct colors are reversed, and angles requested by indexers are too high and wont allow you to see where
you are going (Except for Crusaders). This mod is designed to allow you to come at the lowest possible speed and with a
correct angle of attack to keep a good view to the deck. Angles are not set to be used with the Carrier ILS system wich
seems to bee steep but rather with the standard Navy Daybreak Approach, see included diagrams.
 
I recommand you to save all modded cockpit.ini of all Navy Skyhawk,Corsairs,
Crusaders and Phantoms before applying this mod. Simply drop the Object folder into your
Mod Strike Fighters directory and it's done. If you want to use correct indexers lights only ,WITHOUT
corrected angles, simply remove them from aircraft's folders before droping it.

Also included is a Nations file (optional) that has the major player countries listed (thanks to FrankD). Note however I do have Afghanistan set to enemy so if you feel inclined feel free to adjust the side status.

SF2 F-8J_FN (Aeronavale)
 
Require SF2 merged install...
 
Aircraft is base on Thirdwire F-8J_69.
 
Copy and paste the content to the appropriate folders.
 
 
The content contain the following squadrons:
 
EPNER (French Test Pilot School)
11F Flotille
12F Flotille (Three special schemes)
14F Flotille (Two schemes)
15F Flotille
16F Flotille
17F Flotille
 
Under the French Navy, only 11F and 12F Flotille flew the Crusaders.
 
The skin colors are Blue/ Medium Grey/ Grey and USN Grey.
 
 
It is my hope that someone or the MF Team would make a F-8P_FN, as this was the latest version to fly under the Aeronavale.
 
I have made extensive tweak on the .INI, Avionics (HUD), Data, and Loadout. I also try to make the aircraft as authentic as possible.
 
Due to the .LOD of the F-8J, there is only the twin pylon rack on the fuselage, if you choose the single weapon option, you will see the missile mounted on the twin rack pylon. The looks is not too bad (you would not see it if you select a larger missile type such as the R-530), if it bothers you, you can edit the .Data and delete this option.

This is small fix that reverts the various calibre guns muzzle flashes back to their TW default effects.
 
Unzip to your effects folder, overwrite when asked.

Unified Effects Pack
 
For Strike Fighters Series 2
 
version 1.0
26 FEB 2011
 
 
This effects pack is a compilation of many effects I did over the years for Strike Fighters and First Eagles series of flight simulators by Thirdwire.
 
Build around "Desert Storm FX Pack beta" released in early 2009, this pack replaces most of the stock effects with new ones, most of them volumeric or "3D" in appearance. Also used are few reworked/tuned down effects from my "Hollywood Explosions" mod, aswell as several never before relased ones.

A-TEAM SF-2 RAF Buc repaint
 
You need the A-TEAM 'BuccaneerS2B' model (an alphasim SF-2 porting) at ther site, to use this skinpack.
 
 
All credits for the plane are for A-TEAM.
 
I updated and reworked their skinpack and original SFX skin, too.
 
 
The RAF '70 line UP is here with: 12, 15, 16, 208, 216, 237 Squadrons.
 
 
Serial numbers (76) are historic but not divided by each squadron, because the planes very otfen change unit, so I put them togheter, deleting those belonged to RN only.
 
 
I'll wait for Volker's Buc better flyng these. I hope You too.
 
 
Enjoy.

Drop in the aircraft folder and go fly.

****F-104S (79)****
 
You have downloaded my version of Aeritalia's F-104S, the final and most definitive version of the Zipper. This particular version
is a bit curious because when the Italians placed the demand that it be able to engage in the BVR fight with license-built Raytheon
Sparrow III missile, it required them to add avionics that hadn't originally been intended to be used in the Starfighter.
 
This forced the engineers at Aeritalia to remove the 20mm M61A1 cannon to make room.
 
There is one skin and markings for four units:
 
23° Stormo/5° Gruppo 'Veltro'
 
21° Stormo/53° Gruppo 'Tigres'
 
102° Stormo/5° Gruppo
 
155° Stormo/50° Gruppo 'Pantere Nere'
 
REQUIRES SF2:EUROPE

Skin: ThirdWire original F-104G Free Add-on

As seen in many of screenshots by me this is a model of the GBU-12D/B (I use it as such) but can be modded for any other GBU-12. This replaces the GBU-12D_N.
 
3D Model - Razvan Stanciu/rusty_hawk (razvan_stanciu2003(at)yahoo(dot)com
Animation help by FastCargo and Profi
Texture - EricJ
 
Designed for the SF2 "plug and play" but can be adapted for SF1 series as well. A blank texture for you to make your own is included
 
Drop in your weapons folder and drop away...

****Royal Navy F-4K (75)****
 
You have downloaded my version of the Royal Navy's pride of the fleet, the F-4K. It uses the ThirdWire F-4M model, so it's essentially just a repaint and some semi-fancy .ini editing.
 
There are two skins, and markings for only one unit, No 892 Squadron. The first skin is what I thought the original aircraft looked like. The second skin is a total 'what-if'. What if the Royal Navy had never gotten rid of its big-deck carrier capability? What if they had upgraded the old Ark Royal and improved and updated the F-4K for modern carrier operations? The second skin is a low-viz grey with subdued markings. I really kind of like it, even if I'm the only one.
 
REQUIRES SF2: EUROPE
 
 
 

This is a small Harrier mission. Take-off from USS Tarawa and destroy hostile vessels heading
our way. Be carefull, there may be air activity, have your radar on!! Take extra fuel tanks,
just in case. Remember this mission is STOVL (Short Take-Off and Vertical Landing).
 
 
 
REQUIREMENTS:
 
-USS Tarawa, by Kesselbrut, available here:
 
http://combatace.com/files/file/2688-uss-tarawa/
 
 
 
-Kamchatka Peninsula v 1.0 by Baltika available here:

F-100D, Air Pirate


 

-- For FULL-4 Merged SF2 (Prefered) and/or SF2:E/V =ONLY!!!= --


(Can be used in any SF2 install that has the access to the F-100D)
 
A "just for fun" mod . . .
 
This package represents aircraft from the fictional Post-WWIII world of the novel series "The Wingman", by Mack Maloney.
These are F-100D SuperSabres as flown by either Air Pirates, or a Freelancer ('guns for hire/Mercenaries').
 
This package comes with 2 skin sets:
 
"The Stukas" infamous Air/Ground Pirate gang that operated in Westen New Jersey, parts of New York, eastern Pennsylvania, parts of Ohio and that general region.
 
A Plane-Jane natural metal for generic usage.
 
This mod creates a new, stand-alone aircraft (not exported, with no other user). It is best used in a stand-alone mods folder that is based on the post-WW3 world of "The Wingman". Although, it may fit into the 'alternate' world of the Global Sedition vs the North American Alliance. (as do many of my terrain mods)
 
Loadouts have been adjusted to reflect the 'lack' of sophisticated weapons in the Post-WW3 world (especially for the 'Bad Guys'), and include a 'nation-specific' AirPirate AIM-9B. The canopy has been set to use a manual animation key. Use Shift/0 to open and close it.
 
As always, =READ= the enclosed readme for full, detailed instructions. This package has been broken down into the various folders that SF2 needs, to make it a LOT easier to install (read: drag and drop).
Again, as usual, the expected "Notes & Ramblings of a Mad(Wing)man" section for fun.
 
Go Git 'em!

This package represents aircraft from the fictional Post-WWIII world of the novel series "The Wingman", by Mack Maloney.
These are F-104G Starfighters as flown by either Air Pirate, or a Freelancer ('guns for hire').
 
This package comes with a single skin set; A Garish Red/Yellow, as described in the first book. Those wishing other skins are advised to extract the USAFSilver1 and drop it into the main skin folder. Other, more "unusual" skins may be forthcoming. Depends on End User ™ demand, and my free time. Other than the 'pirate' badges, there are no other markings.

This is a COMPLETE aircraft package, including the Zipper's cockpit and the hi-rez repaint by Batman1978; all is ready to just unzip, install and fly. The avionics ini has been modified to give you an 'audio-only' RWR.
 
Loadouts have been adjusted to reflect the 'lack' of sophisticated weapons in the Post-WW3 world (especially for the 'Bad Guys'), and include a 'nation-specific' AirPirate AIM-9B. The canopy has been set to use a manual animation key. Use Shift/0 to open and close it.

This package represents aircraft from the fictional Post-WWIII world of the novel series "The Wingman", by Mack Maloney.
These are F-105D Thunderchiefs, as flown from the Free Territory/Trade Zone know as 'The Aerodrome', based at what used to be Syracuse, New York, as owned/operated by Mike Fitzgerald.
 
This package comes with 2 skin sets; one Natural Metal for the 'deconstruction era', after WW3 and during the time The Aerodrome was established and Fitz began building up business (so to speak), and a 3-tone camo, most likely used during The Circle War and and beyond.
All are based of stock 3W items. New decals are supplied with Fitz's trademark "Shamrock"
