MiG-21 Fishbeds Over Middle East/

By yakarov79

MiG-21 Fishbed Skin Set for F-13/FL/PF/PFM versions used in Middle East by Egypt,Syria,Iraq.

Ive made several camo skin sets because i was bored of stock ones in Wings Over Israel. So this will bring some more colors to game. I think its around 17-18 skins. With some diferences so its not boring anymore..at least for me.
Paints are mostly based on photos (usually poor quality).

All skins are new made by me based on comrad's great template http://combatace.com...-21-mfsm-temps/
I repainted few things and added few new (like on F skin).
Pack includes only skins. There is no ini files, for decals etc. So it can be easly configured for your use. Just replace old ones or just create new folder fornew paint.

Have fun

Lahatut Over Israel SF2

By yakarov79

'Lahatut' Hughes 500E/500MD TOW Defender Ver 2.0 for SF2

This is a third party add on of the Israeli version of Hughes 500 model helicopter using models and cockpits created by me.
The original flight model is standard as on many free to download helicopters.
I have just modified it a bit.
It is designed for and works only in SF2 series.

*************************************************************

Jarek Hereda

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is second version of my previous Lahatut.
It is updated in lod, data.ini,skins,decals etc.
New decal sets covering all 36 numbers.
I have added also Lahatut 500E unarmed version.

Ive named both aircrat diferently than previous ones to avoid confusion.
Highly recomended to delete old one.

Do not mix old and new files...as it will not work well.

******************IMPORTANT******************

This addon works only with my WeaponPACK (included in rar file). All of weapon stations are made as specific station code and will work only with this weapon pack.

Animations.
LANDING GEAR - Nose light on/off at any speed. Don't forget to retract before shooting.

ANIMATION 8 - front left door (ext and cockpit view)

ANIMATION 9 - front right door (ext and cockpit view)

ANIMATION 10 - rear door. (disabled in _data.ini file)

ANIMATION 1 - If needed you can activate old XM70 sight to aim hydra rockets. In fact MD500 defender was offered for sale also with M27 Minigun and XM70 sight but I am not sure if IAF ever bought minigun subsystem.

Like in previously realased loaches here also you can realy fly low and slow. This helo got little more power due to higher weight compared to old OH-6A
I am sugesting to fly low on 40-50% of throttle. around 45degree vector control, use pulse rudder to control left right, it is realy easy. With little practice you can even hoover. Without fake flaps and airbrakes.
Important here is to control using rudder and vector thrust control.

Skins.
All numbers are historicaly correct and are based on available photos. But I am not sure if those numbers are 100% correct for specific unit.
Tayeset 160. First operational unit of Lahatut. It was used by 160Sq during first Lebanon War with AH-1S(mod)
Tayeset 161.
Tayeset 190. Formed in 1985 with aircrafts transfered from 160 and 161 sqns.
Flight School also aquired few aircrafts in mid 90s.

Weapons.
TOWs - BGM-71 A/B/C/D.
M260 7 tube rocket launcher with several different warheads.

Weapons are the same as in previous helicopter packs, so if you downloaded AH-1S(mod) no need to copy weapons.

SF2 NA/E COLBERT Cruizer FN

By acesfakia

13/06/2017
SF2 E/NA
French cruiser Colbert (C611)
Colbert (C 611) was an anti-air cruiser, later transformed into a missile cruiser, of the French Navy.
She was the sixth ship (and second cruiser) of the French Navy to be named after Jean-Baptiste Colbert
(the previous one was scuttled at Toulon in 1942).
She was designed as a powerful ship, the second of the De Grasse series, able to overcome all threats solely by
her guns' weight of fire - she had 57mm and 127mm turrets for a firing rate of one shot per second.
Launched on 24 March 1956 in Brest, France, starting her trials on 5 December 1957 and officially entering active service
on 5 May 1959, she was made part of a 15-ship squadron, with the main aims of protecting aircraft carriers from air attack,
shore bombardment for ground operations, command hub for naval operations and evacuating French expatriates from overseas.
In 1964 a naval reorganisation made her the flagship of France's Mediterranean squadron (escadre de Méditerranée) at Toulon,
which was mainly made up of complementary units such as aircraft-carriers and frigates.
She served in the Navy from 1956 to 1991, before being converted into a museum ship at Bordeaux from 1993.

French ship Jules Verne (A620)
Jules Verne is a repair ship of the French Navy, named in honour of science-fiction writer Jules Verne.
Originally named Achéron and intended as an ammunition transport ship, she was converted to repair ship after her keel had been laid.
Jules Verne was long based in Djibouti (she was featured on the 10 000-Djiboutian francs banknote). In 1997, she was assigned to the Force d'Action Navale.
She was designed to replenish, refuel and repair the ships of an operational force at sea. She was fitted with a complete 240-m2 hospital including an operating theatre, a recompression chamber and 16 beds.
In May 2016 Jules Verne arrived at Ghent, Belgium for recycling by Galloo Group

This is the long awaited MiG-25 interceptor models upgrade. Sadly the new model and the new proper pit seem disappeared, as some other dreamed great preview planes, like vaporware.
But now we have these "oldies but goldies" revamped ...
And if you'ld like to fly for freedoom as Lt. Belenko you can do as his plane is inside the pack.
As I remember well when the most feared soviet MiG, landed on Hakhodate Japan airport ....
Old glory, good, cold war years, when you'ld see your enemy quite straight in his icy eyes.

Enjoy.
