Directly to the USMC in Vietnam.

The VF-74 Be-delivers at NAS Oceana became the first deployable Phantom squadron when it received its F4H-1s (F-4Bs) on 8 July 1961.This add-on is based on the stock F-4B and represents an early F-4B of VF-74, with:
 
- New,Hi-res cockpit
- Fletcher fuel tanks
- Early J79GE-8 Engines
- Typical early F-4Bs weapons options
- And a few other details, you 'll see...
 
Changes of v1.01:
- Hangar screen is ok now
- Corrected Loadouts
 
You need to download the Fletcher Fuel Tanks from here:
 
http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autoc...;showfile=6595 
 
NOTE:As I am informed, it has been impossible to remove the sidewinder racks, so we have to live with them
 
Changes of v1.2:
- New correct Hi-Res skin by Sundowner
- New Hangar and Loading Screens
 
 
The real credits should go to:
 
- mppd
- Streak Eagle
- Batman1978
- Spillone
- Sundowner
 
Also thanks to ravenclaw_007 for his feedback.
 
IMPORTANT NOTE: This is a freeware!

New Dirty Exhaust Effects
By NeverEnough
 
This exhaust effect was inspired by the work of Deuces, Fubar512 and Spillone104.
This New Dirty Exhaust Effects package includes a NewDirtyExhaustEmitter.ini which can be used to supplement the old DirtyExhaustEmitter.ini in your Effects folder for some additional exhaust effect variety.
The New Dirty Exhaust Effect will generate a longer and less dense exhaust plume than the Dirty Bird Exhaust Effect.
The New Dirty Exhaust Effect is configured so that it may be used in either single engine or multiple engine aircraft. The DirtySingleExhaustEmitter will produce slightly less exhaust volume than the DirtyDualExhaustEmitter when used on a dual engine aircraft if you want to decrease the volume of smoke signature for your multi-engine models.
If you wish to have a slightly more smokey single engine aircraft, you could utilize the DirtyDualExhaustEmitter in a single engine aircraft.
 
You can easily choose between the two effects to get whatever exhaust smoke trails happen to suit you!
Both of these exhaust effects can be applied to single, dual or multi-engined aircraft models.

Bf-109 E-7 Trop for SF/SFG/WoV/WoE WWII North Africa --for Games at 06 Patch Level -ONLY!!!-
 
This is a mod of Russo's great Bf-109 E-3, to make the Bf-109 E-7 Trop as used in North Africa in WWII. The E-7 is a much more typical aircraft for WWII North Africa than other the earlier variants of the Bf-109E. The principal differences from the earlier variants were the ability to carry a bomb or drop tank under the fuselage, and a slightly more powerful engine.
 
Russo made and released a LOD for the E-7 model, which has a bomb/drop tank cradle under the fuselage, but never released the completed mod. Here it is, FM changes and all, with two new skins, a new desert camo skin and a plain desert tan skin. The cockpit is especially for the Bf-109E by Kesselbrut, the skins by Charles. A new Revi 3 gunsight has been added by me, based on the one from the EAW PappaRomeo pak.
 
Included are the original hangar and loading screens, as well as one of my 'boxart' types and a generic 'mto_109_loading.bmp. (that one actualy depicts Franz models, but is a VERY nice painting by Trudigan)
 
= IMPORTANT: This aircraft is designed for use in SF/WoV/WoE -ONLY- at the 10/06 patch levels. It has =NOT= been tested it in post 8/28/08 patch WoI, nor post 9/08 - 10/08 patch SF/SFG/WoV/WoE. Nor has it been tested in SF2 or SF2:V. You use it in these enviroments at YOUR own risk. =
 
As always, it's reccomened you unzip this package to a temp folder, or your desktop, to gain access to the rest of this readme for the full, easy to follow install instructions.
 
Happy Hunting!

MiG-19PM Farmer-E upgrade Ver.2 for SF/SFG/WoV/WoE/WoI and maybe SF2/SF2-V


 

UPDATED to Version 2.0 5/5/09


 
This is a simple upgrade that will bring this aircraft to the latest patch standards (08 Level)
This is ALL the other bits from before complied into a complete package, all inclusive, and is designed to TOTALLY replace any earlier upgrades.
 
The changes implimented herein are mostly in the switching of the Izumrud nose bubbles to a 'pilot seat', ala FastCargo's trick. This will allow it to show on aircraft parked on the line. Included is Mago/Paladrain's cockpit from the Mig-21PFM. While not a perfect match, it's the 'bestest closest fit', and works REALLY nicely!! Other data ini edits remove all 3 gun barrels and the xtra weapons pylon. A new skin, based off my 1024 templates is also included, with the ejection ports and fusleage gun-blast shielding removed. Decal ini edits move the bort numbers aft and make them slightly smaller; meaning they're not -quite- correct, but at least now something will show up on the nose. For those wishing to resking for Czech or Hungarian usage, you'll have to plot the new postions yourselves, as they placed them on the aft fuesleage.
 
The avionics ini has been updated to include an audio-only RWR; not sure of what type, probably some kind of a Serina, but it does work. The cockpit ini has also been modified to use the original style radar and radar display that Pasko created. No other changes have been made to it. So the instructions given in the original 'readme' still apply for target aquisition, tracking and firing. The is the 'Interception Procedures.txt' included in the main folder.
 
You'll also find an updated data ini to 08 standards. I've split the Alkali stations, to allow for a "mixed" loadout of either/or the IR or SAH versions of the AA-1, even though I've turned up nothing that says that a mix could be used. It's part of my gaming belief system "playbility & fun sometimes takes precedence over historicality" (and everyone knows what a stickler I am for historical correctness!!)
 
The original 'box-art' style hangar screen is included, along with a new WoE 'on the runway' version, so you can choose which you like best.
 
It is designed for use with any/all weapons paks, or none. I've incuded the Alkali A & B missiles from the 06 Bunyap Pak; still in their RS-2US and RS-2U naming conventions, in the 'seperate folder' format now usable in all post patch games. For those with SF2 and SF2:V, the weapons data ini for each missile is included in each of the folders. As I don't have these games, you all'll have to figure out the numbering on your own. But, with TKs release of the SF2 weapons editor, this should pose no major problem
 
As always, it's reccomened you unzip this package to a temp folder, or your desktop, to gain access to the rest of this readme for the full, easy to follow install instructions.
 
Happy Hunting!

Enhanced gun sight for Mirage IIIc Shahak
 
In Wings over Israel
 
 
 
The original gun sight of the shahak was too dull, especially against brighter sky.
I made the moving gun sight more solid against the background, by repainting it.
 
 
To install:
 
Copy the included cockpit folder into
 
Wings Over Israel\Objects\Aircraft\Shahak directory
 
 
 
To restore the previous gun sight just delete the file MIRAGE3_SIGHT_MOVING.TGA
 
 
 
Included are some screenshots of the enhanced piper
 
Enjoy

The Hankook Kong Goon (Republic of Korea Air Force - ROKAF)
 
From 1969 to 1989, ROKAF had 27 RF-4C, 92 F-4D, and 103 F-4E.
 
In late 80s' to early 90s' the ROK Agency for Defense Development
announced a plan to upgrade the radar and avionics of 35 to 100 of
its remaining 150 or so F-4D/Es and 25 RF-4Cs.
 
Submission from DASA (ICE Program) and Rockwell (Washingthouse APG-66,
base on the APG-66J for the JASDF's "Kai" program... was maded in
1993. A close decision for the "ICE program" was almost ordered.
 
However, funding priorites for the KF-16C/D, the F-X, and the KTX-2,
as well as, the ROKs' currency devaluation... kept the ROKAFs' F-4
upgrades on the back burner.
 
Now, with the F-15K (F-X 1/2 selection completed - order in two batch
of 40/21. All of the ROKAFs Phantoms are being slowly replace.
 
11th TFW
 
110th TFS F-4D (Replace with F-15K)
151st TFS F-4D (Replace with F-15K)
 
17th TFW
 
152nd TFS F-4E (possibly being replace with F-15K or the F-X "3")
153rd TFS F-4E (possibly being replace with F-15K or the F-X "3")
156th TFS F-4E (possibly being replace with F-15K or the F-X "3")
 
131st TRS RF-4C (Plan to be de-commission)
 
For the Phantom Lovers...
 
This is the ROKAF F-4D_Plus Phantom II "What if..."
 
In this aircraft:
 
- Avionics changes
- Data.ini changes
- Loadout changes
- Fuel tank changes (F-15 style 600gal tank)
- etc.
 
Most members of the CombatAce Forum has made additional modifications to the already
excellent aircrafts being produce by countless talented individuals at this
Forum. The additional modification of this Phantom is one of the examples.
