Little tool for analyzing First Eagles Aircraft_Data.ini
(not sure about other 3rd wire aircraft, some of the estimated calcs would be surely wrong)

adjust speed if "pulse" sound is too slow.

The 90th Transport squadron is the longest serving Transport unit in the Dhimari air Force.The 90th was the only unit to make a combat Para drop in the history of Dhimar.The drop was in the unsuccessful attempt to retake the Kasir Oil fields and would have had a chance of succeeding had the weather not been such a factor.The 90th used the C-47 as it's main type until replaced by the C-130 in the late 80's

The Dhimari 45th Fighter squadron (Scorpions) was formed a few years before the War after NATO countries decided to sell off redundant F-84's.The squadrons main responsibility was ground support and recon but they flew Fighter patrols as needed during the conflic.The 45th Squadron took part in the successful attack on the Parani Naval base at Al Hakarr.durring the raid The 45th attacked the air defenses while the main strike force destroyed the bulk of the patrol vessels docked there.

The 10th Fighter squadron (Vultures) had an interesting genessis.They started out as a Hunter equipped ground attack unit but had to give up it's Hunters to the 4th Fighter squadron.The 4th's commander is a member of the Dhimari Royal Family and used his connections to get the Hunters transferred to his unit after his squadron was destroyed on the ground during the opening phases of the war.F-86's were transferred from training units to the 10th to get the unit up to strenth.The unit kept it's ground support role but also flew recon and fighter patrols in the Capital area.
 
The Dhimar "leopard Camo" was only used by 2 squadrons.The 10th and 8th.Both were units hastily raised during the war and were originally finished in bare metal when they were received from South Korea.the Depot that did the initial overhaul had limited stocks of the Standard desert paints and had to make due with what it had.The leopard pattern as it was known was designed by LT. M. Hushan and was made using paint originally meant for tanks.as a result by wars end the paint was in sad shape but due to the popularity of the scheme it was redone post war in "real" aviation paints.

The Dhimari 8th fighter squadron was raised when Hostilities seemed unavoidable with Paran.Dhimar purchased ex South Korean Sabers to form the unit.It was used in the opening of the conflict to provide air defense around the capital and the surrounding industrial area.After the initial offensive was stopped operations shifted to ground support.The 8th continued to fly the Saber until it was finally replaced by ex-USMC F-4s that were obtained in the mid-80's.It is hoped that a deal with the US will allow the 8th to fly ex-ANG F-16s in the near future.

Replacement Euro Green 170 gallon F-104G wing-tip drop tanks.
 
This little package is designed to eliminate the 'upside/sideways/backwards/or whatever is wrong with the "Tank_F104G" that we've all been experiencing.
 
Using a repainted bmp, and the stock 3rd Wire 104G tank lods, this should correct the problem of having the fins pointed in the right direction
The only problem that still exists, is that I haven't been able to quite figure out the bmp mapping to have the '2 tone', euro green upper and neutral gray unders. To that end, I've enclosed a PhotoShop psd template, that I created, so someone with a little more skill at that can finish it perfectly.
 
This will update the latest Weapons Pak, circa 6/2006
 
These tanks can be used on BOTH the stock 3rd Wire F-104G, and the one build by Ajundair. Designed for use with German, Italian or Dutch Euro camo schemes.
 
Full, detailed instructions in the enclosed readme -- PLEASE read and follow them, as you'll be using the weapons editor.
 
Safe Flying!
