Strike Fighters by Thirdwire

A three 'single mission' pack based on the movie "The Final Countdown." It's one of my Top 5 favorite movies of all time.
 
The basic requirement for this mod is SF2NA patched to Jul 2013.
 
See the README file for details on mod requirements and installation instructions, as well as modding credits where due. Access the README file using wordpad to see it in its proper formatting.
 
Also included is a .pdf file titled "The Final Countdown Mission Brief Book." You'll need adobe acrobat reader in order to access this file. The brief book is in no way required to play this three mission set, but I included it for fun and immersion purposes. If you haven't seen the movie or 'know the story', so to speak, the brief book will bring you up to speed. The narrative in the briefing book provides some perspective on the 'crazy situation' from the deckplate level, so to speak. ;)
 
The three missions are titled as follows:
 
101 Splash the Zeroes!
102 The Great Hawaiian Turkey Shoot
103 The Battle of Hawaii
 
The first mission is straight out of the movie. The other two involve the 'alternate ending' we never got to see but really wanted to. For fans of this absolutely iconic movie, the screenshots included will give you some hints as to the content that awaits.
 
Again, all instructions and the few mod requirements needed are outlined in the README file. Enjoy!
 
Special shout out to JonathonRL who can be considered the forefather of this mod, and generously gave me permission to alter and use one of his terrain sets. Thanks!

This is a fictional skin for Pasko's F-9J(F9F-8) Cougar which you can get here:
http://combatace.com/files/file/9662-f-9j-f9f-8-cougar-for-sf2/
 
It represents a "what-could-have-been-if" airplane for the JASDF in the 6th FBS, 5th Wing, stationed at Matsushima AFB in the late 1950s.
 
Originally, the squadron flew Sabres. Here's how the plane approximately looked like:

This model represents the Zulfiqar class frigate, also known as F-22P type, in service with the Pakistan Navy since 2009.
 
This class is an improved version of China's Type 053H3 Jiangwei-II class ships, armed with the same missiles but significantly more advanced close-in weapons. These general purpose frigates are Pakistan's most modern warships.
 
If you have any questions, comments, concerns, or constructive criticisms regarding this model, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you!

J-29A, A-29B, J-29E, J-29F, S-29C
 
Quite a 'Tunnanpedia'.
 
Here You will find all Tunnans versions in one pack.
 
A plenty of silver, green, camo, austrian & UN skins.
 
You will need (as for my Vampire 50, Viggens and all other incoming Swedish mods) last squadron.ini to work.
 
A sample UN mission 'Kamina Dawn' is also included.
 
Spillone104 helped me in data.ini tweak and as usual
added proper sound (thank You my friend).
 
Note:
 
The model we have made by Phlerp is an 'F' with sawtoothwing, IRM rails, and afterburner
 
The 'E' was easy to make: same plane without rails and burner.
 
For the 'C' that had the new wing of 'E' & 'F' as an upgrade, all the guns and pylons except the tank ones were removed.
 
 
For 'A' and 'B' we changed the wing as much we can. We cannot full remove the sawtooth.
 
[i mailed Phlerp to finish the work making these types as stated in original readme.]
 
Waiting for him (I hope I will answer one of these days) we can use them in great Operation Isbjörn and enjoy.
 
 
Thank You all for Your interest in those little, great barrels (i.e. barilotti, vero Alex?)

All jigs, tools and components for the Messerschmitt Me 262 jet fighter in Czechoslovakia at the time of the German surrender were seized by the Soviet forces and then handed over to the newly restored Czechoslovak government by Marshal Ivan Konev. Forward fuselages and other components of the Me 262 had been manufactured at Letnany, some components had been produced in converted railway tunnels, and the CKD and Walter works had built the Junkers Jumo 004 turbojet, assembly of the fighters having been undertaken at Cheb, near the German border. Sufficient components were recovered for Avia to build 17 single- and two-seat Me 262s, the first single-seater flying as the S 92.1 on 27 August 1946. Dubbed the Turbina (Turbine).

This is something nobody else may have done before, as far as I know. This is a pack of 30+ single missions designed and written to form a slightly branching campaign experience, with the aid of an included briefing book to guide you through the process. I've been frustrated by SF2's campaign mechanism and wanted to put out a mission pack that tells a bit more story and is a bit more immersive in nature, rather than letting the game's campaign code just generate mission after mission with no real sense of continuity or panache.
 
The mission pack is basically a more detailed, story-driven version of the campaign you play in SF2NA. This one is based a little more closely on Tom Clancy's "Red Storm Rising", the biggest difference being that the Soviets hold ALL of Iceland, not just part of it. Although it doesn't follow Clancy's novel exactly, many of the scenario driven elements of these missions will be intimately familiar to fans of the book.
 
A full explanation of all facets of the mod is included in the 'README first!' file in the zip file. That is the place to start for a full description of the mission pack, as well as information on required and recommended mods needed to play. The required mods list is a bit on the heavy side, but totally worth it. None of the required mods were altered in any way by me, and all credit and kudos go to the mod authors for their work.
 
The Operation Nordic Storm Campaign Briefing Book is included in the zip file, in .pdf format. You'll need adobe acrobat reader in order to use the briefing book- I don't expect that will be a big issue for anyone here. The briefing book is what allows you to play a string of 'single missions' as a branching 'campaign,' as well as go beyond the game's often-simplistic definitions of success and failure for various mission types. A full explanation on the use and purpose of the briefing book is included in the 'README first!' file.
 
I really enjoyed creating and play-testing this mod, and if it is well received I may do a similar mod based on a circa-2010 fictional conflict against Iran (with some Russian help) in the Persian Gulf. Feedback and bug reports are always welcome. The important thing is to read the README file in its entirety. Use wordpad to access the README file to see it in the proper formatting. Enjoy!

When Edward's Korean War mod for SF1 had filled a gap in the world of combat air simulations, I had then participated with a dedicated Medals Pack. Now the range of available models for SF2 expands at lightspeed, a new all-inclusive KAW mod for SF2 may soon be laid, and I'd want to be a part of it too. A former work of mine had proposed new counters and screens for SF2, now I'm delivering a Korean War Medals Pack that is a largely expanded version from my former set of national awards for SF1 (also including anthems and musics). The decorations sources are: stock SF2:E, stock First Eagles, Charles' Medals Pack v2.0 for SF1, my own works for Wings Over Vietnam, and many new personal creations devoted to that mod. The complete lists of now available awards are displayed below. You will notice that North Korea and Communist China are still missing, I could try to update in a later future...

In 1947 on BE 708 "Mézergues" airbase near Meknès (Maroc), the "Centre d'Instruction à la Chasse" (CIC) and the
"Centre de perfectionnement à la chasse" (CPC) formed the new "Ecole de Chasse Christian Martell", dedicated to
a French pilot instructor and WWII hero.
From 1951 were delivered fist jets: T-33A and Vampire. On 1957 arrived the MD-550 Ouragan (done) and later the Fouga Magister (coming).
The Ecole left Maroc on 1961 and went to Tours and became Groupe d'aviation GE 314.

SF2 "Sub Chaser" for WW2 and Post-War 9/3/2014
 
= For SF2, Full-4/5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*Note: This is the SF2 version. A 1st Gen, SF/Wo* version will be relased shortly.*
 
*Note #2: as there exists another version of this type of ship by the DAT, THIS mod has a unique folder name that will -NOT- conflict for those End Users that may have that version.*
 
This mod represents a 'generic' Sub Chaser type patrol craft, but resembles closely the SC-497 class as used by the US Navy and Allies during WW2. Many other nations also used them after the war, for various patrol/security/escort functions.
It is classed as a "Patrol Boat" in the data ini, so it most likely will NOT show up attached to Battle Groups. However, it can be added via the 3w Mission Editor (like to convoys in Antishipping missions)
 
This was a collaborative effort by RussoUK (after discovering the ship deeply archived!) Spectre8750 for finalization and exportation, plus ini works by all of us. Very few tweeks by me. It was all pretty much done!
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!!

MiG-21K, KS, KST and Kbis Soviet Navy carrierborne fighters (What if) v1.0
*************************************************************
This mod is made for SF2NA.
 
----------------------------------------------------------
I. History
 
In 1946 the UK had a lot of major problems. It suffered high losses during WW2 and war damages all over the country were significant. The industry layed down and a big amount of war depts pressed the economy further. On the other hand the Royal Navy had a lot of ships which were not neccessary anymore. So it was decided to sell some major ships, including aircraft carriers. The HMS Colossus was sold to France, the HMS Warrior went to Canada. The Netherlands wanted to buy the HMS Venerable and Australia was interessted in the HMS Venegance.
1946 the Soviet Union showed their wish to buy 3 carriers of the Colossus class and offered a price of 50tons of fine gold. So the last 3 carriers of the Colossus class, the Theseus, Triumph and Perseus were handed over to the Soviet Sea War Fleet and were named as TAKR Odessa, TAKR Kronstadt and TAKR Sewastopol.
Odessa and Kronstadt were operated by the Northern Fleet, while the Sewastopol served in the Baltic fleet for 6 years. In 1952 all carriers were sent back to Navy wharfs to refit them with an angle deck. The blueprints of this innovative design was stolen by the Cambridge Five espionage group. In 1955 the Odessa became operational again. The Kronstadt followed one year later and the Sewastopol reentered the service in 1957. All 3 carriers were used till mid/end 70th.
After refit with angle deck the MiG-17 became the core of the Odessa flight group. But in 1961, the Soviet Navy demanded a supersonic interceptor with Mach 2 capabilities. The OKB MiG decided to modify their newest plane, the MiG-21PF, to fit the requirements of carrier operations. The MiG-21K was born.
The K got a strenghtend landing gear, an arrestor hook and carriertypical avionics. The most obviesly difference was the introduction of canards and an inflight refuel probe. So it was possible to increase the former much to short range of the plane. The K got the new engine R-13-300 which was originally intended for the next MiG-21 generation.
After nearly one decade of carrier operations a new updated version was needed. It came in 1968 and got the designation MiG-21KS. The KS got the RP-22 radar which increased the detection range by 50% and made new weapons possible. So the R-60 and R-3R were introduced and the air to ground missile Kh-23. The number of weapon stations was doubled. Now were 4 wingpylons available. The new stronger R-13F2-300 engine gave the KS a better handling.
As nuclear strike plane the MiG-21KST was developed. KST stands for korableniy, safir, toplivo what means carrierborn, saphire radar RP-22, additionally fuel. It got the big back tank of the MiG-21SMT and was prepared to carry nuclear bombs under the wings. It entered the service in 1973.
1975 the last version MiG-21Kbis came to the squadrons. The external shape was similar to the precessor MiG-21KS, but under the skin the Kbis was a new plane. The structure was mainly build by titanium what made the plane light and strong. The new R-25-300K engine gave more thrust and less fuel consumtion. The RP-22KM radarsystem was able to operate the new medium range air to air missiles of the R-23 and R-24 family over a distance up to 40km.
All MiG-21K versions had had no internal gun, but where ably to carry the GP-9 gunpod under the central fuselage station.
