    1. Chengdu J-10A-AR "Ehécatl"
      This model is a approximation of how a Chengdu J-10 might look if it was in service with the Argentinian Air Force, being part of the 6to Grupo de Caza y Ataque, belonging to the VI Brigada Aérea. 
      As many of you might know, Argentina is planning to modernize its air force, and one of the jets that has been considered is the J-10, coming along with the JF-17, the MiG-35 and the MiG-29 (I should work on one of those).
      The model, though, is not accurate. The offer made by China considers the J-10CE, an export version of the J-10C.
      This plane can carry Chinese and Russian weapons, and Argentinian Mk-series bombs.
      The aircraft will appear on the list as "Chengdu J-10A-AR "Ehécatl".
      The adding of the -AR is just a formality.
      To install it, you will need to copy and paste the folders in your SF2 mod folder, following basic mod installation proccess.
      In the folder >>J10AR-Final Version<< you will find 4 folders. These are:
      Aircraft >> J-10A
      Decals >> J-10A
      Flight >> FLIGHTENGINE.INI
      Weapons >> KometaTankC // KometaTankW
      Special thanks to:
      Erwin_Hans and InSky, for the fantastic model they made of the Dragon...
      Franconinja14, who made the skin for the plane...
      Stipe, for the MiG-29M3 "Hyper Fulcrum" and its HUD, that I used for this mod...
      Spinners, for the Kometa and its tanks, wich I use in this mod...
      Eagle114th, for the screenshots, giving me tips and helping with everything (this guy is a genius)...
      And ThirdWire, for this amazing sim, that I love and play almost everyday...

      I hope you enjoy this mod as much as I do.
      Have a good flight!
      Good hunting!

      Royal Netherlands Air Force NF-5A Freedom Fighter Volume II VERSION 1.0
      ------------------------------------------------------------
      We are proud to present the NF-5A  RNLAF, the Canadair variant of the Northrop F-5a, one of the most enduring American military aircraft designs ever produced during the Cold War period. The Canadair NF-5A was essentially similar to the Canadian AF CF-5 but introduced several modifications, the most important being the more powerful J-85Can-15 engines, Doppler radar navigation system, arrestor hook, two large split air intake doors aft of the main wing trailing edge on both sides of the fuselage to provide extra air to the engines (later also used for F-5E type),  and provision to carry the larger 275 gallon under-wing fuel tanks.  The aircraft also featured maneuvering  leading edge flaps,  a strengthened windscreen, and was the  only F-5a to operate a two position nose gear.
      It has been our goal to provide to the simmer a highly detailed model and texture base which preserve the beautiful lines of this aircraft; and to engineer flight model files and a cockpit/gauge file-set that are authentic and add to the immersion of the flying experience within the Strike Fighters 2 series.
       
       
      INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
      --------------------------
      1. Copy the contents of the "To Mods Folder(s)" to your  SF2 Mod directory.
      Allow directory merging and overwrites, provided the overwrites pertain to "fake pilot" entries, as well as weapons made by ravenclaw_007, which are included in this and many other releases.
      2. Add the entries of "ADD_TO_SOUNDLIST.txt" to your SOUNDLIST.INI (located in the "user\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2\Flight" folder).If one does not exist, then you will need to extract it using the 3rdWire CAT extract utility.  You are simply required to substitute the "XXX"s  with the next sequential number in the sound file section of the file.
       
        NOTE    1:
      ------------
      Both Regular and Higher resolution cockpit textures are included in their own distinct folders in the package.
      The user may alternate between the two by "commenting out"
      the relevant line in the NF-5A_COCKPIT.INI

      [CockpitData]
      Directory=cockpit           <---This is the default
      //Directory=cockpit_Lo-Fi    

      In order to "activate" the higher resolution textures
      you would decomment the previous line and comment out
      the next line, thus:

      [CockpitData]
      //Directory=cockpit          
      Directory=cockpit_Lo-Fi   <---This is now Low-Res

        NOTE    2:
      ------------
      Another frame-rate friendly option for those with older hardware is to use the Next level of Detail Model as the primary external model. This simply involves changing the first line in the F-5A_HAF.ini  from this..
      [LOD001]
      Filename=NF-5a.LOD
      to this..
      [LOD001]
      Filename=NF-5a_002.LOD
      Much effort was made to provide those with lower end systems an alternative lower poly-model to be able to enjoy the F-5a,  so please take advantage of this _002.LOD model should you experience frame-rate issues.  While not as "rounded" as the Higher poly version, it is nonetheless just as detailed and extensive.
       NOTE    3:
      ------------
      For those who may find loading times excessive, the .jpg files in the texture folders can be reduced to 50% of their size without sacrificing too much surface detail.
       Keys:
      -------
      SHIFT+0 -> canopy open
      -/= (Default thrust vector Keys) -> elevator trim

      ****************************************************************
      FEATURES:
      * A highly detailed external 3d model, including all features specific to the NF-5A including "F-5E"  type Nose gear, animated auxiliary engine doors, arrestor hook, underside air intakes for the more powerful engines, external chaff and flare dispensers, and 275 gallon external wing tanks.
      * Specular color and Normal (bump) maps.
      * Seven Level of Detail models (LODs), providing an almost seamless transition from distance to distance; and perhaps more importantly, ensuring that the frame-rate "impact" of the aircraft is as low as possible.
      * Two sets of highly detailed external Fuel Tanks by ravenclaw_007; both the 150 gallon Factory tanks and the 275 gallon variants; the NF-5A being the only F-5a variant to carry them.
      *Functioning AN/ALE-40  Chaff and Flare dispensers exclusive to the RNLAF NF-5A
      * Extensively fine-tuned flight parameters in the aircraft data configuration files, emphasizing the NF-5A's agile and highly maneuverable characteristics - courtesy of  Baffmeister.
      * Functioning maneuvering flaps deployable up to 450 knots, which allow for tighter sustained turns .. also credited to Baffmeister.
      * 5 high resolution texture sets; thoroughly researched historic depictions of the Aircraft fielded by many RNLAF  Squadrons.
      * Quality sound-set included. Base sounds, by Guuruu, were sourced from existing recordings of various aircraft at air-shows and were modified  to match the prominent characteristics of the F-5A General Electric turbojets, the "buzz" of the M39 Pontiac 20mm machinegun, and the flap/Air-brake, undercarriage deployment and retraction sequences of the Freedom Fighter.
      * Super detailed  dedicated NF-5A 'Virtual Cockpit'  with animated throttle control, rudder pedals, control stick,  landing gear lever, canopy, canopy lever, drag-chute lever, weapons selectors and weapon station arming flick switches, ..and more.
      *Accurate and functional representation of the Saab RGS2 lead computing  gun sight, with accurate aiming mark (Mechanics by Crusader and Logan4).
      * A full complement of highly (or should I say "insanely" detailed  weapons carried by the RNLAF  NF-5A, all by ravenclaw_007.
      * Comprehensive RNLAF  Loadouts  representing the weapons carriage evolution of the NF-5A in Dutch service from 1972 to the 1991 by ravenclaw_007.
      * Complex animation of canopy opening mechanism, and animated Turbine blades; both thanks to ravenclaw_007.
      * GKAB's superb highly detailed crew figure with authentically modeled oxygen mask and flight helmet.
      * All new afterburner, emitter, and engine smoke effects by Guuruu.
      *  Saab RGS2 lead computing gun sight with both Air to Air and Air to Ground modes.
      * Functioning elevator trim controls and gauge, using the Thrust Vector Controls; courtesy of Cliff7600.

      PILOT NOTES
      -----------

      NF-5A Limit and Reference Speeds. [Indicated Airspeeds]
      FLAPS (FULL DEFLECTION): 300kts for both leading and trailing edge.
      FLAPS (MANOUEVERING):    450kts for both leading and trailing edge
      NOTE: The F-5A uses full flaps for take off but due to a game bug you must manually select full flaps for take off when player flown. The        AI will use full flaps although you can hear the flap sound cycling between flap 1 and flap 2.
      LANDING GEAR: 240kts
      DRAG CHUTE: 165kts
      CANOPY: 50kts
      NOSE WHEEL STEERING: 65kts
      MAXIMUM INDICATED AIRSPEED: 710kts [redline]
      MAXIMUM MACH: 1.72 Mach design limit but thrust/drag limited to about mach 1.50 in a 60deg dive from 50,000ft.
      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      TAKE OFF ROTATION SPEEDS
          13500lbs: 155kts [full internal fuel and two sidewinders]
          20500lbs: 195kts [about the maximum weight possible with included stores]
          NOTE: Use full flaps for take off! Adding 6kts for every 1000lbs above 13500lbs should give good aft stick/rotation speeds.
      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      CLIMB SPEEDS
      Military Power
          13500lbs: 375kts with a transition to mach 0.89
          20500lbs: 310kts with a transition to mach 0.74
      Maximum Power
          13500lbs: 595kts with a transition to mach 0.93
          20500lbs: 480kts with a transition to mach 0.85
      -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      FINAL APPROACH SPEEDS
          With 500lbs fuel remaining and some empty racks use 160kts. Add 5kts for every additional 500lbs of fuel.
          NOTE: Target touch down speed is 20kts less than final approach speed.
      ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                            
                           RGS2 Gunsight
      --------------------------------------------------------
      We have simulated the two main modes of the sight, one for Air to Ground, and one for Air to Air.  The Air to Ground reticle assumes 3 different levels of depression according to the air to ground ordnance selected; bombs, rockets or guns. Due to game limitations, the Air to Air aiming mark is set up for lead computing of a target at 213meters (or 700 feet).
      We have included another gun sight option, whereby lead is calculated for targets all the way out to 4000ft.  This has involved adding a ranging radar (which the NF-5A didn't have) but this solution allows lead computing for targets further out than 700 feet - something the RGS2 was capable of.
      The radar ranging option is the default but the user can copy the files from the "Standard"  subfolder of the Avionics_Alt  folder (located in the Aircraft folder) and switch out the ini files.  If you're unhappy with either of the two options you can simply copy paste the files from the folder you prefer.

    4. 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.
      WHAT'S IN
      - a new plane (new polished lod)
      - 53 brand new HD skins
          (France 25, Germany 11, Israel 5, Greece 2, Portugal 5, Congo, Nigeria, Niger, Angola, Mozambique, Rwanda)

      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.

    7. 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......

      this mod represents the F-15C in a fictional scheme as the reconstituted USAFE Skyblazers demo team.
      while fictional, it is based on the very real Wing Commander aircraft's scheme in 1986, which was an homage to the Skyblazers in the 1950s. in this what if skin, all for

    8. East and West Eagles: F-15C in the 18th and 36th TFWs during the 1980s
      this mod represents the F-15C while in service with the 18th TFW at Kadena AB and the 36th TFW at Bitburg AB. it is semi historical, especially in the case of the 36th TFW (with had a lot of variations on the theme at any given time!)

      note: this started as an improvement to my own install on a new system. as i do not usually fly the two seaters, i have no intentions of doing the D models. if interested, i will gladly share the templates so you can create your own.
      2d note: this mod was mainly created to fix the Eagles the way i wanted them in my own installs. since i do not normally fly two seaters, i did not do D models. anyone interested in creating these is free to pm me, and i will share the decal templates
      thank you for choosing this mod, i hope that you enjoy it
