SF2 SA-14 Gremlin / 9K34 Strela-3 MANPADS Pack 1.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This pack features the SA-14 Gremlin. It is a man-portable, shoulder-fired, low-altitude, 
infrared guided surface-to-air missile system (MANPADS) developed as a response to 
the limited performance of the earlier SA-7 Grail. The missile was largely based on the 
earlier Strela-2 and thus development proceeded rapidly. 
The most significant change over the Strela-2 was the introduction of an all-new infra-red 
homing seeker head. The new seeker worked on FM modulation (con-scan) principle, 
which is less vulnerable to jamming and decoy flares than the earlier AM (spin-scan) seekers,
which were easily fooled by flares and even the most primitive infrared jammers. The 
new seeker also introduced detector element cooling in the form of a pressurized nitrogen 
bottle attached to the launcher.
The effect of cooling was to expand the seeker's lead sulphide detector element's 
sensitivity range to longer wavelengths (slightly over 4 µm as opposed to 2.8 µm of 
uncooled PbS elements). In practice this made possible the tracking of cooler targets 
over longer ranges, and enabled forward-hemisphere engagement of jets under favourable 
circumstances. The seeker also had better tracking rate, enabling the missile to track 
maneuvering of fast and approaching targets.
A negative side effect from the aforementioned improvements was increased missile 
weight, which caused a slight decrease in the kinematic performance compared with
Strela-2M (SA-7B). Against relatively slow, low-altitude battlefield air threats the overall 
effectiveness was much improved.
The new system was accepted into service in 1974. Strela-3 missiles have been exported 
to over 30 countries. 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Known issues:
- System has limited all aspect capability mostly against slow, low-altitude targets.
 
- Helicopters have higher survival rate per hit because in some cases missiles hit the tail rotor 
  without causing significant damage. I guess this is another game engine characteristic.
- Low altitude (lower than 500 meters) performance is downgraded for current missile values. 
  By increasing noise rejection the missile becomes capable of hitting targets in lower altitude 
  but at the same time the single shot hit/kill probability is being increased to an unrealistic level. 
- Fuze distances are longer compared with the actual lethal and damage radius of the system. 
  In SF2 world the real high explosive warhead quantity is big enough to destroy a fighter size 
  target even in 10 meters!

As always open readme.txt first to see installation instructions and credits.
Lot of research and hard work was made to make this SAM as realistic as possible.
More than 2000 launches took place during testing!
Enjoy as much as you can this mod and leave comments with your in-game experience
in the support topic!

Details
Working Cockpit
HQ Model with effects
Custom Hud and Radar
Note:While playing campaign the year must be 2000+ ,because the weapon manufacturing date was set to 2000.If you want to play in game campaign then you have to change data file. you can change that in by FFR-41MR_Late_DATA (opens with notepad) and find Weapon Stations then find SpecificStationCode=FAF,change it to SpecificStationCode=.it should work.
Advance Sorry for my bad writing.
Happy flight
 
 

Operation_Salazar:  
 
From 1966 onward, the pro-independence guerrilla movement MPLA expend their previously-limited insurgency operations to the East of Angola. 
The UNITA, a smaller pro-independence guerrilla organisation established in the East, support the MPLA.
The FAP start counter-insurgency military campaign, called Operation Salazar, to expel the guerrilla movements operating in the East to beyond the frontiers of Angola.
The Government of South Afrika supports the efforts of the FAP.
  
PLEASE BE AWARE: This release of Operation_Salazar is unpolished and is to be considered a Beta version. In short, there will be bugs and not all of them have been found.

SF2 RA-5C Vigilante Pack v.2       9/27/2019
-For SF2, Any and All (Full 4/5 Merged Reccomended)
This is a revamp of Julhiem's RA-5C "Vigilante" carrier based recon aircraft. It has has several updates/upgrades/changes to make it more SF2 compliant. This is the complete aircraft, with everything included. If you have any earlier version(s) it is suggested you delete BOTH the aircaft and decals subfolders, as this version replaces them it toto. Or at least, remove or store them elsewhere.
The aircraft comes with 6 skins, including the original released single skin. These skins are:
RVAH-1 'Smokin' Tigers (USS Independence 1965, CVW-7, SEA, first combat cruise)
RVAH-5 'Savage Sons' (USS Ranger CVW? 19??) **
RVAH-6 'Fleurs' (USS Kittyhawk 1971, CVW-11 SEA)
RVAH-7 'Peacemakers' (USS Ranger, 1978/79, WesPac, Squadron's Final Cruise)
RVAH-9 'Hoot Owls' (USS Saratoga 1967, CVW-3 Med cruise)
RVAH-11 'Checkertails' (USS constellation, CVW-9 SEA 1971/72)
**= original release skin
Almost all markings are decals, excepting some painted-on squadron insignia. Serial/BuNums are 100% historically accurate (by unit) Decal randomization is TRUE. Skins remain in bmp format, as they're not that large. The SF2 "date switch" is active.
The canopy opens/closes with the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0 (zero).
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. See "Notes" for list of changes. 
If there's anything missing or "off", please let me know and I'll try to find it. This mod got lost in the shuffle with several other large projects.

Happy Landings!

This aircraft mod represents Dassault's what-if Mirage 4000P fighter and its trainer PB variant in the Portugese Air Force service.
This package comes with 1 skin set for each variant, with decals for P (14 planes), and for PB (6 planes).
Also it is dedicated to our friend Cocas who put his work and time to bring us many of the rare or experimental aircraft in this game series and originally created the base model for this plane.
This model is meant for SF2 games only, SF1 variants will be uploaded at the SF1 section.
Install is the regular dropping the contents in their respective places. In case you have the prototype or French A and B variants you can skip the overwrite prompt of weapons as those 6 items are identical.
Please note: The model can be quite heavy on FPS in large formations on weaker machines, so if required, either resize skin files or use lower lods(_nd,001,002,003) as lod1.
The model uses the general french and NATO weapons, either as part of weapon packs or the Mirage 2000 family.
Important: The PB variant comes with 2 types of cockpit, the basic setup will use a simple pit that has only the pilots cabin instrumented. The other is a fully modeled front and rear compartment, in which you want to fly you should activate the proper line in the AC's.ini file.
CockpitDataFile=Mirage4000PB_Cockpit.ini <---- basic setup
;CockpitDataFile=Mirage4000PB_Cockpit_full1.ini <------ front seat
;CockpitDataFile=Mirage4000PB_Cockpit_full2.ini <------ rear seat
Be aware - the piloting seat position can not be changed during/in game, so chose wisely!
Make sure to read the manual included with the package.
