McDonnell Douglas Hornet F.2 for STRIKE FIGHTERS 1
This is a 'what if' RAF Hornet F.2 interceptor with markings for No.5 squadron of the Royal Air Force.
Erwin_hans was good enough to release a blank skin so it was a easy to knock-up an RAF Superbug. This is a fine add-on aircraft for 'Strike Fighters 1' and 101tfs and Erwin_hans have created a true masterpiece  - one of the very best add-ons available and I'd like to thank them for their hard work in bringing this aeroplane to us. Please note that in this revision I've simplified the effects and sounds to use stock files and you'll want to change the loadout.ini to suit the weapons you've got as, again, I've left it to stock.

INSTRUCTIONS
1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the HORNETF2 folder into your Aircraft folder.
2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the HORNETF2 into your Decals folder.
P.S. Remember to set your Single Mission EndYear=2010,2020,2040 or whatever in your Options.Ini!

CREDITS
Thanks to TK for a great little game/sim.
Thanks to 101tfs and Erwin_hans for creating the first F/A-18F.
And thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.

This is a 'what if' Thunderstreak FGA.2 with markings for No.31 squadron in a SEA Camo by whiteknight06604.
 
Regarding the Thunderstreak in RAF service then there is no backstory but perhaps the UK needed some muscle when the Supermarine Swift started going pear-shaped!

INSTRUCTIONS
1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the THUNDERSTREAKFGA2 folder into your Aircraft folder.
2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the THUNDERSTREAKFGA2 folder into your main Decals folder.
Please note that I've simplified things by using the stock F-105 tanks.

Special thanks to the guys listed below - great work and especially the flight model!

By Viper with INIs by Fanatic Modder
-------------------------------------------------------------
This mod was intended as an update to FastCargo's Super Vark Package (See link below), but it can be a standalone mod if you just want the USAF F-111s included in this pack. If you want to install both packs, FastCargo's pack must be installed first as that is the older pack.
You can get FastCargo's pack here...

Installation:

I recommend that you back up your mod folder (or just the Effects, \Objects\Aircraft\F-111F, and \Objects\Decals\F-111F folders). I just make a copy the mod folder, try the mod, if I like it, I delete the backup. If I don't, I delete the new/updated mod folder and rename the old backup/copy back to the original names to reset to my original setup.
* To install, simply unzip and copy the contents of the "To_Mod_Folder" folder (the uncompressed "Effects and Objects" folders only) to your StrikeFighter2 mod folder and Overwrite.
My StrikeFighter2 mod on Win97 64-bit was..(yours may be different)...
C:\Users\<your_id>\Saved Games\Thirdwire\StrikeFighter2 Europe\
Note: You should be able to install this mod into any SF2 series, it doesn't have to be StrikeFighter2 Europe.
* To remove, simply delete the active "Effects and Objects" folders and replace with the back up copies you made prior to the install.

Republic Aviation F-84I 'Sharav' for Wings Over Israel c/w Add-On
The Armee de l'Air received its first F-84F Thunderstreaks in 1955 and it was in French service that the Thunderstreak saw its only actual combat during the Suez Crisis of October 1956. French Thunderstreaks from the 3rd Escadre moved to RAF Akrotiri on Cyprus whilst the 1st Escadre were deployed to the Israeli base at Lyddia where they supported the Israeli forces that invaded Sinai on October 29th. Despite seeing intensive action only one F-84F was lost and the tough and rugged aircraft so impressed the Israeli Air Force that they ordered 50 F-84F-70-RE aircraft before the end of 1956. The F-84F-70-RE featured the more powerful J65-W-7 rated at 7,800lbs thrust which helped with the initial climb rate and the combat ceiling and these were among the last Thunderstreak's to roll off the Farmingdale production line in the Summer of 1957.
In 1962 the entire Israeli F-84F fleet was grounded due to the same corrosion of control rods that had affected the F-84F worldwide but they were soon restored to full operational capacity, eventually serving with distinction during the 1967 Six Day War and surviving in Israeli service until 1973 when stress corrosion eventually forced the retirement of the Israeli F-84F fleet.
Ignoring by own backstory I've given the 'Sharav' Suez stripes and a 1956 start date! I've previously released this in SF2 but thought it would be nice to release it in SF1 but please note that it does require both Wings Over Israel and the Add-On Expansion Pack.

INSTRUCTIONS
1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the F-84I folder into your Aircraft folder.
2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the F-84I folder into your Decals folder.

LTV Corsair GR.2 for STRIKE FIGHTERS 1
This is a simple re-paint and 'ini' edit of Florian's (Amokfloo) superb TA-7E Corsair II to give a 'what-if' Corsair GR.2 of the Royal Air Force circa 1975. I did this skin back in 2008 and apologise for it being a bit rough but I just love the RAF camo schemes of that era and slightly later, especially with the 'B' type (Blue/Red) roundels. Apart from adding a screenshot for the downloads section I've just added some serial numbers.
Anyway, Florian's original readme is below and I'd like to thank him for his good work and also echo his thanks
to triplethr3at and Armourdave.

INSTRUCTIONS
1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the CORSAIRGR2 folder into your Aircraft folder.
2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the CORSAIRGR2 into your Decals folder.

Thanks to TK for a great little game/sim.
