Yak-15 "Feather"
By paulopanz
The Yakovlev Yak-15, NATO reporting name: Feather, was a first-generation
Soviet turbojet fighter developed by the Yakovlev design bureau (OKB) im-
mediately after World War II.
It used a reverse-engineered German Junkers Jumo 004 engine.
Along with the Swedish Saab 21R, it was one of only two jets to be success-
fully converted from a piston-powered aircraft and enter production.
280 aircraft were built in 1947.
Although nominally a fighter, it was mainly used to qualify piston-engine-
experienced pilots to fly jets.
@ Original Pasko's model (as just edited by Wrench, Eburger and so on,
excuse me if I don't remember all) 2012 rebuilt:
- tail mapping bug fixed
- rudder mapping main bug fixed
- front wings upside-down mapping bug solved
- Inner cockpit corners ouside canopy painted
- Stary's cockpit fitted in place (thank You man!)
- a better pilot seat added
- 13 historical skins made/fixed
- 2 original fictional camo skin revamped
- a whole new decalset
- new hangar & loadout pics
Enjoy

Heinkel HE-70 Blitz
By Veltro2k
The Heinkel He 70 is a mail plane and fast passenger aircraft of the 1930s designed by German aeronautics firm Heinkel Flugzeugwerke, which was also used in auxiliary bomber and aerial reconnaissance roles. It had a relatively brief commercial career before it was replaced by types which could carry more passengers. The He 70 was a leading design for its day, setting eight world speed records by the beginning of 1933.

By paulopanz
Nanchang Q-5 / Q-5E / Q-5II
This work started as a simple skinpack for Wrench's SF-2 Fantan pack.
At last it changed so much that I decided to make a whole repackage.
So at last this is only a Wrench tribute due all the old birds he always polish and upgrade for us almost every day. Thank You my friend!
I tried only to complete his work on the Q-5
What's new:
- All skins rework (new camos too)
- Engine Intakes (by Cocas)
- Brand new decal sets according Y.Gordon MiG-19 Aerofax bible
- Canopy, Antennas & Rails mappings issues quick fixes
- Loadout Images SF-2 Tga files
Credits:
- Wrench for SF-2 upgrade (for SF-1 original credits see his readme)
- Cocas for new engine intake via fake pilot add
- Guest for original North Korea skin

Install:
- As usual all in main mod folder and overwrite
North Korea Q-5E/II:

That'all folks!

Mig-9 "Fargo" Cockpit
By starfighter2
This cockpit was too long on my computer and it wasn't uploaded, I just forgot about it. It should work with:
The cockpit.ini file name may need to be renamed,and there may be a need to adjust the position of the cabin itself.
I am sure that even a less skilled user can do it with ease.
I hope that you will like the mod.

Norway_1986.7z
By jmarso
Excerpt from README File:
Setting
In this ten-mission pack, you are assigned to VA-86 as an A-7E pilot in Carrier Air Wing EIGHT, in September of 1986. When WWIII begins and the Nimitz battle group begins its fighting withdrawal from Norwegian waters, the two A-7E squadrons are detached temporarily to land bases in Norway to press the fight against the Soviet invaders in the north.
This mission set is designed to coincide with / complement Eburger86’s North Cape campaign. It is essentially the same scenario as the ‘Fighting Withdrawal’ campaign, told a slightly different way, with a twist and a new pack of single player missions designed to have some ‘story continuity’ to them.
Requires Eburger86's North Cape user made campaign mod.
This is actually Part II of a two part release. Like the SW movies, they are being made out of order. :p

T-67 main battle tank
By Gepard
T-67 main battle tank (standard tank) (What if)
*************************************************************
This mod is made for SF2.
----------------------------------------------------------
I. History
What if the soviets would have introduced the Object 167 into service?
Object 167 was the successor of the T-62 (object 166) with a new suspension system (was later used on T-72) and a new turbo diesel engine with 700 hp instead 580 hp in T-62.
Top speed of the tank was 65 km/h on road, 40 cross country. Range around 450 km. So it was comparable with a Leopard 1 tank, but had a much better armour.
There were some versions of object 167. One with gas turbine (helicopter engine), one with 100mm gun D-54TS (comparable with britisch L-7 gun) and one with 115mm smoothbore gun and ATGM Maljutka (AT-2 Sagger)
The T-67, i present you here, is the version of object 167 with the D-54TS 100 mm gun.

Shoot Voice Command Utility
By streakeagle
This is an old application that was written for .net 1.1, but I have used the built in .net compatibility tool to make it compatible with more recent versions which allows it to run on Window 7 64-bit and Windows 10 64-bit OS. I have also included the profile editor that was released before the host website shut down.
Shoot can be buggy at times, but closing the application and restarting gets it working well again.

P-15 / P-19 Flat Face pack V.1
By yakarov79
P-15 and P-19 radar objects for SF2 series game. This is mostly eye candy stuff. Just to improve the visual side of the game.
Pack contains early P-15 Tropa on Zil-157 bed and late P-15 Flat Face P-15M2 Squat Eye and P-19 Dunay on Zil-131 chassis.
In this pack, you will find new objects. But no worries nothing needs to be overwritten.
Basic modding skills are required to run this mod. (copy/paste, mod folder structure etc.)
Mostly this mod is for modders, terrain builders.
As some radar settings need to be adjusted for proper working with your installs. Radar family/network type needs to be adjusted and associated with your other SAM objects.
Also, placement on terrains might be strange sometimes because of construction of the lod.
Userlist ini is very generic and not really 100% accurate.
All ini files are beta....mostly to make the object working - rotate radar mast, bend etc. All stations are set as EW radar and are connected to SA-3 radar network
I'm hoping someone will do correct ini edits. Only if there are still some modders around here.....
So do not complain if something is not working- just edit your way. You have working lod and skins...
Basic skins green and tan.
All skins are in jpg format. Tga in 1024x1024. So you have to resize for your own preferred size.
Play with it, and hope someone will do better ini for this.

SF2:V RB-57E Canberra "Patricia Lynn" (Remod)
By Wrench
SF2 RB-57E Canberra "Patricia Lynn" (Remod) 7/25/2019
= For SF2:V ( or Any & All SF2s, Full-5 Merged Prefered) =
*note: this mod was started for a CA member in July, 2018. I just recently found it in my archives. Figured I might as well release it!*
This is a complete rebuild of Anjundair's B-57E, and an update to Migbuster's RB-57E "Patricia Lynn" package for SF2:V.
The aircraft has 3 full skin and decal sets; all serial number decals are 100% historically correct. These skins depict the 460th TRW, Det 1 at various times in their deployments to Southeast Asia:
Natual Metal (1963)
Night 1 (1966)
Night 2 (1970)
The skins use the SF2 'date switch', and marking change as needed as per the year in use. Skins remain in their bitmap format.
The FM has been rebuild using the stock 3W B-57 as a base. The avionics have been upgraded, and you'll now have a full time LLTV set up. As there is no accurate B-57 cockpit, the F-4B is used as a stand in, due to it having scope to display the radar, TFR and LLTV (yes, we know there actually wasn't one in the front cockpit). This (gaming) aircraft remains fully combat capable, unlike the Real Life (tm) versions. See Notes for more information.
When in game, you'll see
RB-57E Canberra (AJ)
on the aircraft selection dropdown window.The "AJ" credits Ajundair, even though there are no other RB-57s available.
As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them! If you have any earlier versions of this aircraft mod, it is =HIGHLY= suggested you delete the aircraft and decals folders, as THIS mod replaces everything. End users (tm) might also find the Notes section enlightning and informative.
Good Hunting!
Wrench
Kevin Stein
***Note: Found in the Archives!!! This was done and should have been uploaded in early 2018!! But I guess never got around to doing so for whatever reasons. As I don't use my SF2:V mods folder much, there may be other birds that have been hiding in the hangars. I'll be more careful in checking from now on!! ***

SF2 F-86A Sabre, 1st Fighter Group Skin Pack
By Wrench
SF2 F-86A Sabre, 1st Fighter group Skin Pack 7/24/2019
-For SF2, Any and All (Full Merged Recommended)
This is a NEW skin pack for the F-86A Sabre. It is designed to be used on the F-86A-5 available from SF2 KAW Sabres Pack. The Sabre(s) are to be found at the following URL:
https://combatace.com/files/file/13604-sf2-korean-war-era-f-86-sabre-pak/
**Be advised! These are for CONUS based Sabres ONLY!! Do =not= use this set within your KAW mods folder! You are advised to have the aircraft installed into another mods folder for proper year-span & theatre usage.**
This skin set represents the 3 squadrons of the 1st Fighter Group in 1949 when they received the first operational F-86A Sabres at March AFB, and later based George AFB here in California. In the 1950s, the squadrons were dispersed across the US in the Air Defence role, but that's another story.
The squadrons are:
94th FIS "Hat in the Ring"
27th FIS "Fighting Eagles"
71st FIS "The Ironmen"
The skins are in jpg format, and each have 26 all NEW serial number decals. On the number list for each squadron (individial aircraft serial) drop down, any serial marked with a star (*) has been positively identified as having served in that squadron. Those marked with a cross/plus sign, (+) have been identified as having been assigned to the 1st FG. Those without any markings are generic F-86A serials. It should be noted, due to a lack of a full squadron roster, some of the serials will be repeated across all three squadrons. This could not be helped. ALL markings are decals, expecially the squadron flashes on the fuselage. Other squadron markings, the tail bands, are painted on for each squadron.
On the skin selection menu, on the Loadout Page, you'll see:
94th FIS, 1st FG (49-54)
27th FIS, 1st FG (49-54)
71st FIS, 1st FG (49-54)
As the game tends to order things by number in the aircraft main ini (F-86A.ini), you may want to edit them into the order shown above. The 94th was the first operational unit, followed by the 27th, and lastly the 71st.
The SF2 "date switch" =IS= active on this skin. It will automatically be chosen as the default skin(s) from 1949. As these units were never deployed outside the Continental US, it is NOT reccomended they be used in your KAW install.
As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for the install instructions. For more information on the 1st FG, you are encouraged to look up it's long and distinguished history from World War 1 to the Present Day.
As an added bonus, a one sheet "expliotation" comic-style jpg is enclosed in the main aircraft folder. It's from one of the Hollywood "newspapers" (read: tabloids) of the time. I stumbled across it, and now share it with you all!!
Happy Landings!

SF2 Yak-14 Mare (What If) Pack
By Wrench
SF2 Yak-14 Mare (What If) Pack 7/21/2019
-For SF2, Any and All (Full 4/5 Merged Reccomended)
This package contains a "new" aircraft, the Yak-14 (NATO Codename "Mare") advanced jet trainer and light attack aircraft.
It is based on, and rebuilt from, Pasko's T-33 T-Bird as this was the aircraft (suitably repainted and rebadged) used in the 1949 motion picture "Jet Pilot". This represents the aircaft flown (#58) by Lt. Anna Marladovan (aka Olga Orlief) as played by Janet Leigh.
The aircraft is finished in "Soviet Dark Green", and all markings are decals. Skin maps remain in lo-rez bitmaps. All marking are decals, and decal Randomization is TRUE. New era specific Soviet pilot figures are included (the newer 'RedAir1' figure). It uses all stock 3W Soviet/WP weapons, but 'new' drop tanks are included. The canopy operates with the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0 (zero).
On the aircraft selection drop down, you'll see:
Yak-14 "Mare" (P)
The (P) designates that this was built from Pasko's old T-33.
As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions.
Please see the "Notes" section for a list of changes to make the aircraft more SF2 compliant
This one was done purely for fun!! Enjoy it in that spirit!
Happy Landings!

SF2 P-47N Thunderbolt Post WW2 USAAF/USAF & Air National Guard Skins Pack
By Wrench
SF2 P-47N Thunderbolt Post WW2 USAAF/USAF & Air National Guard Skins Pack 6/20/2019
-For SF2, (Full 5 Merged Reccomended)-
This is a package for post-WW2 and Air National Guard squadrons that flew the P/F-47N Thunderbolt in the years from 1946-1954. These are for V.2 of Russ's N-Jug. All skins are in jpg format.
You can find Version 2.0 of Russ' P-47N at the following URL:
https://combatace.com/files/file/13202-p-47n-157z/
The skins included herein for Regular USAAF/USAF units are:
37th/48th/49th FS, 14th FG
99th/100th/301st FS, 477th CG/332nd FG
The other skins included here are for the Air National Guards of the following states:
Connecticut
Delaware
Georgia
Hawaii (Territory of)
Massachusetts
Pennsylvania
Puerto Rico (Territory of)
The USAAF/USAF had divided the country at the Mississippi River, and had P-51 Mustang ANG units in the west, and P-47D/N units in the east. This is why this set only has Thunderbolts, and all are Eastern States.
They are displayed on the Squadron Selection Drop-down window on the Loading Screen, as below:
37th/48th/49th FS 14FG (1946-48)
99th/100th/301st FSs 332nd FG (1945-48)
118th FS, 103rd FG (CT ANG 1946-52)
142nd FS (DE ANG 1946-54)
128th FS (GA ANG 1947-51)
199th FS (HI ANG 1946-54)
101st FS (MA ANG 1947-51)
146th FS, 112th FG (PA ANG 1947-51)
198th FS (PR ANG 1947-55)
Operational dates are rounded to the closest full year. The SF2 'date switch' is =NOT= used on any of these skins, as they overlap each other. End users (tm) will have to make any changes manually on the Loadout Screen for their flightmates.
A new data ini, with vastly improved FM and engine parameters (Now! With WEP!) is included. Some minor adjustments in hit boxes, armor, fuel tanks, etc have been performed. The operational years remain the same, so WW2 PTO users need not worry. Just drop it in. A backup copy of the original data ini is included, as a safety measure. It should be noted, Stary's superb Late WW2 cockpit -HIGHLY reccomended for this bird- is NOT included. If there is enough interest, I can add it to this, and upload an update. Or update the basic WW2 aircraft package.
Other than special squadron markings (color bands and the like) all markings are decals. Decal randomization is TRUE. Each squadron has 26 serial and 'Buzz number' decals. On the individual aircraft select drop down, for all skins, any marked with a star (*) are been 100% positively identified as having served in that unit. Any not marked should be considered generic in nature as they don't actually represent aircraft from any particular unit, but are late production block P-47Ns. Please see the "Notes" section for information regarding the 332nd & 14th FGs. They are treated as special cases. A reminder -- this package =ONLY= contains American users (USAF & ANG). None of the export customers are included. Nor are any weapons or pilot figures included. You should have them already.
As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. As there exists an eariler version of these skins/decals, you will want to delete them or back them up to a different location entirely =BEFORE= installing these. Also, PLEASE read the "Notes" for further explainitory words on hows and whys.
Happy Landings!

SF2 F-84B Thunderjet, 49th FIS, 14th FG Pack
By Wrench
SF2 F-84B Thunderjet, 49th FIS, 14th FG Pack 7/7/2019
-For SF2, Any and All (Full Merged Reccomended)
This is a NEW aircraft, the Republic F-84B Thunderjet, depicted as when it first became operational in 1947. It it based on (one of) RussoUK's F-84s. It represents aircraft of the 49th FS (JP), 14th FG from 1947 through 1949. The 49th was the first USAF squadron to recieve and deploy the Thunderjet into active service (along with it's sister squadrons the 37th and 48th).They served in the "day and good weather" Air Defense role of the Eastern United states from Dow AFB, Maine.
The skin is in jpg format, and 26 serial and Buzz numbers decals were created. Decal Randomization is TRUE. On the number list (individual aircraft serial) drop down, any serials marked with a star (*) has been positively identified as having served in the 49th. The others, while some DID serve in other squadrons of the 14th FG, they could not be identified to any of the 3 squadrons. Others, for the B model, are generic in nature.
A NEW late 1940s pilot figure is included, as is the "f84" jet sound. Drop tanks, WW2 era bombs, rockets, etc are NOT. You should have these already.
On the Aircraft selection dropdown menu you'll see:
F-84B ThunderJet (RUK)
(This is to differentiate Russ's T-Jet from the as yet uncompleted FastCargo version; if it every gets done!).
As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions.
Happy Landings!

F8F Bearcat Redrawn Lines, Rivets, etc..
By Geary
Redrawn Lines, Rivets, etc.. for the Geo's F8F Bearcat.
It can be used for SF1 or SF2.
Add your own paint, dirt, details, decals and weathering...
I can't remember why I made this template (I must have had some extra rivets laying around) as there are already some excellent skins for this plane by Geo, Pappychksix, paulopanz and Wrench and much of this template was based on some of those skins.
This is a WIP-Finish-It-Yourself template and is in Photoshop .psd format at 2048 pixels. It has redrawn lines, rivets and various bits. It can be reduced for those with low spec computers. It's still a bit rough around the edges, but you can smooth out any rough edges to your desires.
-----------------------------
If you want to make the lines and rivets darker or lighter, this template allows you to do that by adjusting the opacity of the lines, rivets or any layer of this file. You can also 'Click' off any layer you don't wish to use, such as the rivets layer if you don't wish to have any rivets. To use it you must have a paint program that reads/modifies .psd files.
Then you can adjust the specular, glossiness and/or reflection entries in the skin's texture.ini file to get the skin to your liking.
I use the poor mans' method of bump mapping. I don't have the needed software or skills to create real bump maps. I use two template layers: one black the other white. The white layer is below the black layer and offset one pixel up or down and one pixel left or right. Then adjust the opacity of each layer to create a 'shadow' effect. When done right it gives the illusion it's 3D.
---------------------------
