BAE Hawk T-1A for SF2
 
This is Russouk2002's BAE Hawk T-1A. It has been updated to SF2 file structure based completley on his work.I have also added the Hawk gunpod made by Russouk2002 to its store of weapons, updated its list of usable weapons, and have updated the file structure for its skin decals. The plane has very basic avionics with no radar but a ranging gunsight, but I have added an audio RWR. This required the addition of its own avionics.ini file. A loading screen and a userlist.ini have also been included. A missing cockpit file was replaced and un-needed files removed. The shadow format has been updated too.
 
Any errors in all this is un-intentional. Please let me know of any problems or needed corrections. Keep in mind this is freeware made by your community for your use. You use it at your own risk. It is un-supported by TK and Thirdwire productions and is released under the CombatAce freeware licensing agreement. Do not use in any kind of payware without express permission from the owner of these files, namely Russouk2002.
 
Issues: Just two that I know of...
1.) The shadow has the long artifact to the ground at certain view angles. Just disable the shadow by reming out the lines in the Hawk T1A.ini like this...
///[shadow]
CastShadow=TRUE
ShadowCastDist=10000
MaxVisibleDistance=400
2.) There are no drop tanks for the Hawk that I can find.

SF2 updates pcpilot
 
 
To install, Just simply open the zip file and copy paste into your SF2 mods folder. It will use the stock pilot in the game. Weapons and drop tanks are all working to my knowledge. It flies well in-game so have fun.
 
God bless, pcpilot

Welcome to the Approach and Airfield Lighting pack for ALL friendly airfields for Wings Over Vietnam (WOV).
 
This pack puts approach lights at the end of each runway and anti-collision lights on all tall buildings and structures, for each type and layout of runway for all friendly airfields.
 
Updated for October 2008 Thirdwire Patch: Alternative airfield lighting definition files are now included that work with the October 2008 patched version of the game.

REQUEST TO ALL MODDERS TO CREATE LCA TEJAS

READ THE README
 
REQUEST TO ALL MODDERS TO CREATE HAL LCA - TEJAS

This model represents a generic tanker, of the type that was in common use from just prior tp WWII, and then well into the late-20th century. It was originally a Google Sketchup model uploaded to Google's 3D Warehouse by "moom", and ported into the series by myself.
 
From the "ReadMe" file.
 
 
To install, just extract the oiler folder into your Groundobjects folder, and that it. In the original TW series (SF:P1, WoV, WoE, WoI), you'll find that folder in your main game directory.
 
In SF2, SF2V, SF2E, and SF2I, the folder may need to be created in My Documents. Please read the knowledge base at www.combatace.com for directions on how to do so.
 
You may add the model as is, but if you wish to enable its associated sounds, you'll need to add the two wav file sthat I've included, into your sounds folder, and you'll also need to edit your soundlist.ini file, to activate them.
 
Add the following entries to your Flight/soundlist.ini file (it may need to extracted from the flight data.cat). Make sure that you maintain the numbering sequence.
 
SoundFile0xx=ShipEngine
SoundFile0xx=Underway

Hi
 
This is the final version of kfir C2 used in Ecuador (1982 - 2006). Now kfirs in the FAE (Ecuadorian air force) have been updated to Kfir CE (Kfir C10).
 
Kfirs arrived to Ecuador (South-America) in 1982 and they became in an important fighter in the Ecuadorian Air Force (FAE). Many of them participated in the Cenepa War (Feb 1995) against to Peru. One of them eliminated a peruvian A-37B.
 
In this model I fixed decals, avionics and skin.
 
This model is based in the kfir C7 from Mirage Factory.
 
Bye

Hi again, well these are the skins of Grupo 2 , Grupo 3, and Grupo 3 (CAMO) Caza Interceptora of Argentine Air Force, at early '50.
The num code "I" indicates they are before 1959.
Bye!!
--------------------
Hola, aca les dejo 3 skins para el Meteor F.Mk IV de la FAA a principios de los '50, cuando aún la denominación de la matricula era "I" y no "C".
Saludos!!

F-86 Sabre /MiG-15 README:
 
 
First of all I would like to think “USAFMTL” for allowing me to be a part of this effort.
 
 
Secondly thanks go to David Zurawski for his wonderful F-86 Sabre that is such a work of art.
 
 
Thirdly thank you to all that have modeled and skined the work to developed individual sub-models of the F-86.
 
 
Thanks to Jimmy Bib for all his graphical engineering.
 
 
Lastly thank you to “Fubar 512" for his expert guidance in my effort in Flight Modeling.
 
 
 
If ever the was an aircraft the looked, felt, smelt, and tasted like a fighter aircraft ; it’s the F-86 Sabre!
 
 
And being an actual jet rated pilot, with a little over 1,200 actual flight hours, compelled me to tweak , my “Sweet Sabre”.
 
 
Being my all time favorite aircraft and being an avid history nut about the Korean Conflict compelled me in an effort to add to these works that so many started.
 
 
First of all. All data contained in the data.ini files was deeply researched by “USAFMTL” and myself.
 
 
Only minor tweaks where utilized, building on the work of those that created the aircraft models.
 
 
All aircraft preform to Dash 1 specifications to the degree of 99.9%.
 
 
All aircraft where thoroughly tested by hundreds hours of actual, not autopilot, testing.
 
 
 
The yank and bank style of A.C.M. with this aircraft is gone.
 
 
 
Key points are :
1) Keeping a high energy fight.
 
 
2) Thinking well ahead of what the aircraft is, or what you want it to do.
 
 
3) The required use of the speed brakes to alter or set up YOUR fight or flight, in reference to turning radius. Not just chopping the throttle, that is a only a good way to die.
 
 
4) And for the self proclaimed, “Fighter Aces”, fly these models on the HARD setting, to truly test your skill.
 
 
5) All F-86 and MiG-15 are uniform in performance. The aircraft preform as did the actual models of this noble era.
 
 
6) The addition of armor to all aircraft end the ,“QUICK KILL”. These can be altered still to fit ones preference.
 
 
 
A little history:
 
 
 
106 OF THE F-86A-5 MODELS WHERE COMMITTED TO THE KOREAN CONFLICT.

Starstreak is a British short range surface-to-air missile manufactured by Thales Air Defence Limited (originally Shorts Missile Systems), in Belfast. It is also known as Starstreak HVM where HVM stands for "High Velocity Missile". After launch the missile accelerates to approximately Mach 3.5, at which point it launches three laser beam riding submunitions. The use of three submunitions increases the likelihood of a successful hit on the target. Starstreak has been in service with the British Army since 1997.
(Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starstreak_missile)
 
Now in version V1.1 with some small corrections (SF1/WoX):
+ The optronics turret does not "crash" into the missile turret anymore.
+ The visual detection range has been somewhat bettered.
+ The thrust curve of the missile has been tweaked to improve the Pk.
+ The seeker FOV has been enlarged to ensure more frequent engagements in high angular velocity conditions.
 
SF2 adaptations:
 
-Had to redo the whole missile system, which works.
-Edited for SF2
