Fragata clase Aconit modelo totalmente funcional, no es exacto esta hecho en base a fotografias, testeado en spf1 y WoE pueden modificarlo como deseen
 

Frigate class Aconit model fully functional, it is not exact this fact based on photographs, tested in spf1 and WoE can modify it as they wish

Installation
 
 
 
1.After unziping the mod archive first copy the TU-126 folder into:
 
 
 
*\Objects\Aicraft\ folder.
 
 
 
2.Then copy the content of the fake_pylon folder,except the text file into:
 
 
 
*\Objects\Weapons\ folder.
 
 
 
3.Add the content of weapons.txt file to the weapondata.ini file.
 
 
 
4.Then start the Weapon Editor Application (WeaponEditor.exe), and load the weapondata.ini file and SAVE ! It's
 
important.
 
 
 
5.Keep in mind that this plane uses a LARGE runaway, alright ?, so any terrain which DOESN'T have at least one LARGE
 
runaway for the ENEMY (just check the targets.ini file for airfields and runaways to be sure) it will crash the game.
 
It took me a while to realize that but finally i did and I updated the readme for letting you all know that as well.
 
For the time being, Madagascar terrain and Vietnam map don't have , for ENEMY, a large runaway. (In my personal setup I
 
added one for each to be able to play there,too)
 
6.If you have a favorite jet you wanna accompany you and you need fuel tanks for it, just replace the default MIG-29
 
fuel tank setting on the fake pylon declaration with the one you desire.

 
The modded AWACS has air-to-air/air-to-ground radar (360 degrees and 200 miles radius for BOTH!) and target lock
 
features.It can see and lock to a target which is 200nm ahead. This way you can surveillance a whole area and lots of
 
enemy planes keeping an eye on any buggy which winds up too close to you. It also has ECM measures, missiles decoys
 
(chaff & flares) and RWR capabilities so you will know if enemy has a lock on you or a radar guided missile is on its
 
way to you.
 
 
 
Now start the game and select, in SINGLE PLAYER, TU-126Moss plane. DON'T load weapons for YOUR plane (the AWACS),
 
instead, from the roster, add two (or five) more aircraft. Leave first to be the TU-126Moss. The next ones made them
 
"escort fighters", for instance choose two MIG-25/29/31 etc. Remember, for the sake of realism you can choose just
 
soviet planes ONLY, for others , no ammo and missiles will be available. After selecting some fighters load them in the
 
same menu with ammo and missile and just start the flight. In this scenario the wing will behave like a bomber wing,
 
not like a usual fighter one, so you, with the AWACS you'll be in the center and other two fighters will be on your
 
right and on your left. Other additional 3 (if you chose 5 escort planes) will go behind in a wall formation. You have
 
air-air radar and you can see & lock planes which are 200nm ahead! After locking a fighter for example, if that fighter
 
goes into your path and you have just 30km to it, send first two wingmen to intercept. First two plane will behave like
 
your wingman in fighter missions, you can give them command "attack my target" so it's important to lock on an enemy
 
plane first,obviously. If the events heat up you can order the next three fighter from the escort (if you chose 5 in
 
total) to move in. Just give them the command "Engage Air" and if enemy fighters are near they will engage them as
 
well. So basically you can have two planes behaving like a single wingman and other three that will engage in the area
 
if enemy planes are near.
 
 
 
As a variation you can mix fighter and fighter/bomber planes in your escort and this way you can deal with ground
 
threats, too. Are you nearby an enemy airbase and a SAM lock sound bothers you or an anti-air gun looks funny at you?
 
Just search it with the "HOME" key, no matter how far/close it is and send some planes from your escort, which have
 
antiradiation missiles (or other Air-to-surface ordnance) to take care of the problem.
 
 
 
-The mod was tested on SF1 WOI but it should work fine in other SF1 games (WOV, WOE etc).
 
 
 
I used the Veltro2k's E-767 avionics (AWACS 360 degrees radar this time!) and his famous TU-126Moss model which I found
 
it here on the download section long ago, Pasko's Tu-16T cockpit and fake pylons. My only merit is that I just had the
 
idea of transforming all these into an AWACS SINGLEPLAYER mode and that I tweaked it and put all together to make it
 
work. Logan4 also contributed helping me to make the fuel indicator work (many thanks friend for that!).
 
 
 
-This mode is free of charge and can not be sold by anyone. Feel free to use this mode in your future project without
 
asking permission, just don't forget to add me to the credits list.

I used ianh755's updated V4.0 version of Dave & Sundowners original Tornado GR1 & GR4 series and F3 cockpit.
All included models are optimized for
. 
1st, the most important thing.
If you want to enjoy low level flying, you must change missioncontrol.ini file !
 
BACKUP ORIGINAL VALUES !!!
 
Then use our missioncontrol, that you can find as archive in our pack.
 
=======================================================================================
Patch 2.3 b
--------------
We promise this is last patch for GR.1 ;-))
Now we are going for GR.4 .
We corrected:
 
1) some bugs in cockpit
2) HUD (it's reworked to look more like real Tornado, thx to Fanatic Modder documentation)
3) AI attacks for british planes
4) removed Lightening pod from BL755 loadout for german ECR
 
we added:
1) open canopy animation for cockpit view (thx ravenclaw for 3d lessons)
PRESS -> SHIFT + 3 to see animation.
2) missed oil pressure indicators
 

Patch 2.3 a
--------------
 
We corrected:
 
1) Problem with wing tip vortex
2) Rudder secondary input
3) Landing speed
4) SPILS system settings
5) Fuel quantity for Saudi GR.1
6) Engines altitude power tables.
7) missing outer wing weapon stations for GR.1 82
8) ECM for brit and saudi planes moved back to pods from fuselage.
 
we added:
1) New Sky Shadow 3d model
 
We also did some small lift for steering sensitivity.
 
=======================================================================================
Fanatic Modder's and Guuruu's Tornado GR.1 version 2.3
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
So,
 
This is really serious upgrade .
Only Tornado GR.1, IDS and ECR are in this pack.
 
What is new ?
-------------------
 
We tried to get flight model as close to real Tornado as possible, so aerodynamic model
is new .
All planes have correct (reworked) engines, wing-sweep positions, max G for turning and
new cockpits (with lots of working lights).
We tested their acceleration, fuel consumption (it's still not perfect but better it was),
turning and climb rate.
We also added correct skin for Italian IDS 81 .
Weapons are no longer separate download, also missioncontrol.ini is inside of pack.
 
We decided to remove GR.4 from this files. She is far from finish and will be published
as separate files.
 
You will find 11 planes in this pack:
 
RAF:
-----
GR1 82 Early production
GR1 90 Better engines, more weapons than 82 model (in fact it is GR.1B with Sea Eagles)
I thought there is no sense to create same plane with only +Sea Eagles.
GR1 90 DESERT STORM Simply GR1 90 with desert camo (plane and weapons)
GR1A Recon version of GR1 90
 
Luftwaffe:
------------
GERMAN ECR HARM armed Tornado with Mk.105 engines
GERMAN IDS 79 similar to GR1 82
GERMAN Marineflieger IDS (with Kormorans and HARMs)
GERMAN IDS 06 which is continuation of Marine IDS after they were transferd to Luftwaffe.
 
Italians:
---------
ITALIAN ECR as german ECR but Italians didn't replace engines for Mk.105 and they use GPS JDAMS
ITALIAN IDS 81 very close to german IDS, can use JP233 insteed MW1
 
Saudi Arabia:
-----------------
SAUDI GR1 93 similar to british GR1 90
 
SKINS:
--------
Every plane has only 1 skin.
 
INSTALLATION:
--------------------
We higly recommend to remove/backup all earlier versions of OUR(!) GR.1 or ECR Tornadoes.
Then unpack this download and copy/paste (overwrite if needed) all files to your
MODS folder .

RAAF No.77 Sqn Meteor F8 Korean War(Aug 1951)
 
For Strike Fighters 2 NA with Korea Terrain(Korea3).
 
This campaign with some 34 missions cover the operations of the RAAF No.77 Sqn in the periode Jul 29 to Aug 31, 1951 in the Korean War.
The squadron was based at Kimpo K-14(from Jul 25, 1951)and his first three CO were: Sqn Ldr R.C.Creswell(from Sep 19, 1950 to Aug 18, 1951), Sqn Ldr Gordon Steege(from Aug 18, 1951 to Dec 31, 1951)and Sqn Ldr Ron Susans(from Dec 31, 1951).
By the Korean War, RAAF No.77 Sqn take in charge 88 Meteor F8 and two T7 two-seaters.
54 Meteors were lost in Korea and Japan. Six were downed by MiGs and other six were damaged.
No.77 Squadron RAAF made claims for 6 MiGs, but actually, only two were downed(both PLAAF)and two others were damaged.
From Dec 1, 1951, after a operation ambush to wipe out RAAF No.77 Sqn set by Gen Lobob(CO of the V-VS 303th FAD)the Australian unit was assigned as interceptor for defense of Suwon K-13 and Kimpo K-14 and then to ground attack.
Lobob´s operation dont wipe out RAAF No.77 Sqn(three Meteors downed and one damaged. One 176th GvIAP MiG damaged)but succeded in putting the australian squadron out of business as active fighter unit in "MiG Alley".
Also, losses of the day leave the unit with 14 Meteors and this was considered insufficient to mantain a Squadron effort.
 
Historical accurate with the main units and bases deployment by Jul 29 to Aug 31, 1951.

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

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 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.
Since 2007 she has been anchored in the roadstead of Brest awaiting scrapping.
 
This Model represent's the Colbert from 1960-1980.
I do my best...to look...very ....close....!!!!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To Install:
 
For all users: unzip, as I always reccomend, to a temp folder or you desktop, or somewheres else that easy to find.....!!!
