Nord 2501, powered by the SNECMA-built Bristol Hercules 738/9 engines, which was found acceptable.
Accordingly, the Noratlas was introduced to service by the Armée de l'Air on 6 December 1953.
Following its adoption by the Armée de l'Air, a number of other operators in both Europe and Africa
chose to procure the Noratlas for their own military air services. Having found itself in a similar
situation to France, the German Air Force of West Germany chose to adopt the same solution, procuring
the type for their own purposes. The Israeli Air Force, the Hellenic Air Force, and the Portuguese Air
Force all deployed the Noratlas under combat conditions.

********************************************************
DISCLAIMER
----------
This is a third party add on of the F-117A using a model
and cockpit created by me.
The original flight model was made by Fubar512 but modified
by me.
It is designed for and works in the SF2 series of games.
VERSION NOTES
-------------
This package is as close as I could get to representing the
F-117A in service with the USAF at the time of Operation
Desert Storm.
There are some parts which I have compromised the detail
on or removed all together in order to achieve an acceptable
level of detail without reducing game performance or increasing
development time.
An example of this is the arrestor hook. The real F-117A has a door
that jettisons when the hook is deployed. I have modelled the
door to open and close so consequently, the hook is retractable.
Animation Key #1 to open/close the refuel door.
Animation Key #2 to extend/retract the COMM and NAV antennas.
Animation Key #10 to open/close the canopy.
Weapon bay doors are automatic on weapon release.
Brake chute will only deploy while on the ground, below 100kts and
with the airbrake extended.
The ejection seat included in this package comes from ravenclaw's
ACES II Ejection Seat for A-10 vers. 1.0 so all the credit goes
to him.
The original package is available for download from:
http://combatace.com/files/file/12472-aces-ii-ejection-seat-for-a-10/
INSTALLATION
------------
Very simple, extract the files from the archive to your
C:\Users\*NAME*\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 folder.
Next,
You will need to add the following to your Squadronlist.ini
file which should be in your Flight AND Pilot Data folders.
This is so the Unit Names show up. (*NOTE* This is not
essential). Make sure the XXX is replaced with the next
number in sequence in your file:
[SquadronXXX]
Name=415TFS
DisplayName=415th TFS Nightstalkers
Nation=USAF
The 416th TFS should already be in your Squadronlist.ini, but
if not, add the following:
[SquadronXXX]
Name=416TFS
DisplayName=416th TFS Silver Knights
Nation=USAF
*NOTE* If you do not have a Squadronlist.ini file in your Flight 
folder you will need to extract it from the MissionData001.CAT
file in your Flight folder using the CatPack utility.
That's it.
You will need Diego's MODUSAF pilot skin for the pilot,
or you can use whatever skin you like by editing the
F-117A_Data.ini file.
REMOVAL
-------
Reverse the above steps.

In October of 1949, four pilots of the 36th Fighter Wing came together to form the first aerobatic display team in the American zone in Germany. This team and its successors would go on to fly hundreds of demonstrations in front of millions in Europe and Africa, before being disbanded in 1963.
That team was, .... the Skyblazers.
This year, Nine Teen Eighty Six, the Skyblazers have finally come home.This reunion, flown in the most advanced fighter aircraft of our time, the McDonnel Douglas F-15C Eagle, brings the Skyblazers out of retirement and back to the 36th Tactical Fighter Wing in Bitburg West Germany.
ladies and gentlemen, ........the 36th Tactical Fighter Wing and Bitburg Airbase are proud to present to you, your.... United States Air Forces... Europe........... SKYBLAZERS......
