Strike Fighters by Thirdwire

Additional RNZAF skins and Mod Update.
 
RAN/RNZAF A-4G. SF2 AND MERGED SF2 INSTALLS ONLY. Version 1.0
 
WARNING:
 
This MOD needs the stock .LOD files included in SF2 to work, so if you do not have SF2 the Mod will not work. The Mod will work if you have SF2 and other Series 2 games as a Merged Install.
 
 
INSTALL:
 
Just unzip and place the contents of Aircraft to the Aircraft Folder and Decals to the Decals Folder.
 
MOD LIMITS:
 
Thirdwire does not have a A-4G model, but there is A-4E_65. This is the closest match so I painted one up to look like a A-4G. There is no brake chute and the inflight refueling prob is straight, everything else is the same.
 
The wing tanks only have the fins mapped once so top and bottoms are the same. This will not be a problem with wrap-around paint schemes.
 
There are no Sidewinder rails for the outboard pylons.
 
I have put IRM class on the outboard pylons and they will work. There are very nice Winder rails on the inboard pylons.
 
 
I have only painted this Aircraft and have not created the model. It is Thirdwires stock model and I have only tinkered a little with renaming some files to make a stand alone A-4G. Plus added a few more weapons classes to the data file and a amended Userfile. Have not changed anything else.
 
THIS UPDATE;
 
This update is the same as the previous Mod but contains extra skins, plus I have corrected the Userlist file.
 
Thanks to Thirdwire and TK for creating the games which have brought me many hours of fun and pleasure.
 
To Combat Ace for creating a place to download and upload files which further add to the games.
 
 
You may change these skins and upload if you wish, but you must thank TK and Thirdwire, CombatAce and they must remain Freeware.

RNZAF A-4K. SF2 AND MERGED SF2 INSTALLS ONLY. Version 1.0
 
 
 
WARNING:
 
This model needs the stock .LOD files included in SF2, so if you do not have SF2 the Mod will not work. The Mod will work if you have SF2 and other Series 2 games as a Merged Install.
 
 
INSTALL:
 
Just unzip and place the contents of Aircraft to the Aircraft Folder and Decals to the Decals Folder.
 
I have included three skins and will soon will have more.
 
MOD LIMITS:
 
Thirdwire does not have a A-4K model, but the A-4K is a late model A-4F. There is a A-4F so I have painted up an A-4F to look like a A-4K. There is no brake chute and the A-4K also has a different tail top which is not modeled yet.There is an A-4F_74 with a tail top pod but these where never installed on RNZAF hawks.
 
The wing tanks only have the fins mapped once so top and bottoms are the same. This will not be a problem with wrap-around paint schemes.
 
There are no Sidewinder rails for the outboard pylons.
 
I have put IRM class on the outboard pylons and they will work. There are very nice Winder rails on the inboard pylons.
 
I have only painted this Aircraft and have not created the model. It is Thirdwires stock model and I have only tinkered a little with renaming some files to make a stand alone A-4K. Plus added a few more weapons classes to the data file and a amended Userfile. Have not changed anything else.

Su-17M Fitter-C For SF2

Installation:
------------------------
 
Simply extract the contents of the Su-17M folder into your Mods\StrikeFighters2 folder.
Shift 0 will open and close the canopy.
 
Position and Tail Lights have been added, and the Position Lights move with the wing sweep. The FM was tweaked to correct a tendency for the aircraft to
flop to one side. It turns out the problem was caused by a negative Ymac value (Ymac = Mean Area Chord in Y axis) for the Right Wing and Right Stab.
Correcting those two values to a positive value completely eliminated the flopping problem, and significantly improved the feeling of the flight model.
This bird flies really nicely, and is a real joy to throw around the sky. Amokfloo did a very nice job with the original FM, model, and skin.
Gepard's Su-20 Egypt Desert Camo skin was altered to use Soviet decals, and would look right at home over an Afghan install.
The weapon stations and Loadout.ini have been adjusted to reflect the capabilities of the Su-17M Fitter-C version of this distinguished warbird.
The RWR is audio only.
 
This is a very nice model by Amokfloo, and a "must have" addition for any Red Air enthusiast.

the glorious new KF1-AX updated to SF2 standards... Weapons and all.... its my 1st conversion so if ive missed something please point it out.

Hi all,
Here are some small changes in the original WOI A-4H skin, to make it look like an early Skyhawk of the 109th squadron.
the fuselage insignia was moved to the rear and a two digit number replaces the usual three digit one, as it appeared during the first years of service (1967-1970 and maybe even later).
All decals are stock decals, so just make sure you have them in your decals folder.

Mistubishi/Kawasaki Ki-109 "Mike" - A "What If.." aircraft for WW2 PTO Install


 
For SF/SFG/WoV/WoE Patched to 06 Levels =ONLY=!!!

 
This is one of those fun little mods, based upon little tid-bits of data one comes across while doing other research. This makes the assumption that the few Bf-109E's that the Japanese Army Air Force had looked at (and this IS true), before the outbreak of the Pacific War, had actually be accepted for production. Also, if one does the historical legwork, one can find several documented "sightings" by Allied pilots of an inline engined fighter, that many called 'a Japanese Messerschmitt'. Obviously, some of these turned out to be the Ki-61 "Tony" (and many were later discounted due to our own lack of intell), but Air Technical Intellegence Units in SoWesPac gave the unknown aircraft the nickname "Mike", which really WAS assigned to suspected IJAAF Bf-109s. (If you don't believe me, Google "Japanese Me-109", and get ready to be surprised...)
 
This is a complete aircraft mod, with everything needed to simply unzip, install and fly. I have NOT included the 109 ltr drop tank, as it's included in the WW2 Weapons Pak, available here at CombatAce.
 
This mod includes 2 complete skins, representing Ki-109s from the 11 Sentai, 4 Chutai (which actually did exist). These skins are:
 
Standard overall green, circa late 1941/early 1942, with yellow ID bands
Mottled/Spotted green over natural metal, for 1943 through 1945 (the end service year), also with yellow ID bands.
 
The aircraft are depicted as if serving in the South West Pacific areas of the Netherlands East Indies, Malaysia, Southeast Asia (French Indo-China), and later as fighter protection for the Fleet anchorages and fuel depots at Brunei.
 
As historically, 11 Sentai did NOT use any individual identification numbers on their Oscars and later Franks, I've followed this trend, with only the Chutai designator displayed on the vertical fin and rudder. Yes, the bright green color IS the correct one for this Chutai.
 
A new WoE-style hangar screen (only available with this mod!!!!) is included. Also, the canopy has been switched from the old-style "auto-speed" control, to one of the animation keys. It's set for key 10 (ie: Shift/0), that'll open and close it. NO other changes have been made to the flight model other than switching over to IJA machine guns and cannon (7.7mm and 20mm). A damage tga is also included, for that shotup look.
 

-= NOTE: You MUST have the WW2 Weapons Pak to get the WW2 weapons and guns and such =-


 
= IMPORTANT: This aircraft has been tested ONLY in 2006 Patch Levels SF/WoV/WoE. Be advised of the existence of some handling issues prevelant in WW2 era and many Pre-Patch (ie: 06 level) aircraft being used in the post 08 patch enviroments. It is NOT reccomended for use in WoI or SF/SFG/WoV/WoE in these post 08 patch game installs. It is also NOT reccomended for use in the SF2 'NextGen' series. If you insist on doing so, you do so at your own risk. No support is available from me for any issues you may experience. You have been warned/advised...
 
As always, unzip this to a temp folder somwhere, and you'll have access to the rest of the readme for it's instructions.
 
Good Hunting!

Sukhoi Su-15TM Flagon-F v2.02 For SF2
 
by Boopidoo and team
 
---History---
The Sukhoi Su-15 was developed primarily because of the Soviet Unions great need for a capable high-speed high-altitude interceptor in the 1950's. The Sukhoi design bureu was tasked with the construction of the swept-wing S-1 tactical fighter and the delta-winged T-3 interceptor.
 
The Su-1 'Fitter' which first flew in 1955 later developed into the Su-7 which in turn developed into the very successful Su-17,20,22 variable wing geometry attack aircrafts.
 
The T-3 on the other hand developed into the Su-7 'Fishpot'. Unfortunately the Su-9 lacked performance in both operational range as well as radar range. This led to the development of the Su-15 'Flagon', not counting the half-failure of Su-11 (a bigger version of the Su-9). The Su-15 after lots of prototypes first flew operationally in 1965. During it's operational time it guarded the Soviet Unions borders right up until the desintegration of the USSR.
 
Production of the T-model began in 1971 and that later became TM with the modernised Taifun-M radar. The Su-15 had at this point evolved with extended wings to lower the high approroach speed and a spherical nosecone to make room for the bigger radar. The TM also had smaller inner weapon pylons under the wings to carry R-60 (AA-8 APHID) missiles, this was done to satisfy the need of a dogfighting capability. To further increase it's overall capability the under fuselage pylons were upgraded to being able to carry gunpods, attack rockets, rocket pods and bombs up to 500kg. Since only the gunpods has been used and has a functional fire-control system the other loadouts options must be seen as theoretical, although the carrying capability's still there.
 
 
---Install guide---
Simply extract the contents of the Su-15TM folder into your Mods\StrikeFighters2 folder.
Chaff and flares have been added so you can spend more time flying, and less time dying!
