SF2 IAI Dagger (FAA) by The Mirage Factory Upgrade/Remod Pack       4/4/2024
-For SF2, Any and All-(Full 5 Merged Suggested)
This is a full upgrade/remod pack for The Mirage Factory's IAI Dagger as used by the Argentine Air Force (Fuerza Aérea Argentina or FAA).
Skins remain in their original bmp format.  All necessary items are provided, weapons, pilots, seats, sounds, effects, and so forth (most weapons used ARE stock 3W items, with few exceptions). This is a "nationalized" single-user only aircraft.
This aircraft is supplied with 3 skins:
Camo with NO ID bands (original skin)
Camo with Blue ID Bands
Camo with Yellow ID Bands (both with a 1982 start date)
All skins use the same 'pool' of 39 ID/serial numbers. All serials are 100% hisorically accurate. As can be expected, the SF2 Date Switch (tm) is active, although the 2 Color Banded Birds (tm) both have the 1982 start date for use during the Falkland War (as best as my research could narrow down)  Also, the Date Switch is used on the Loadout ini, as newer missiles become available.
When in-game, on the Aircraft Selection Drop-down you'll see:
Dagger (TMF)
So you can't mistake them for anything else but TMF Birds (tm). Also. this will diferentiate it from the Other Daggers available
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. All original readmes, when discoverable, are included. The 'Change Log' is, as always, in the Notes section below.
Happy Landings!

This edit in the original file allows you to fly as if you were the wingman of the formation.
You continue to be the leader, and giving orders to the rest of the squad, but flying as the right wing, giving the radio command 1-8-6.
To return to the original formation, just perform the radio command 1-8-3.
I like it, because I like flying as a wingman and "inserting" myself into the maneuvers and following the "leader", giving more immersion to the flight.
You just need to be careful when flying with nations where the pilots have "poor skills", as during the maneuvers the "leader" can spread and collide with you.
In this case, before the "action begins", I suggest giving the command 1-8-1 so that he moves away so that a collision does not occur.
Don't forget to make a backup of your original file in case you want to revert!

In June 1975, with tension growing with Morocco, Spain decided to strengthen its Air Force and bought 15 Mirage F1C that were allocated to Albacete AB. In mid-1976 there was still some tension with Morocco and Algerian and Libyan MiG-25 flights on the Mediterranean, which would lead the Spanish Air Force to purchase ten more Mirage F1C and two years later order 48 Mirage F1C and F1E.
F1EE_Early specifics:
no R550, AIM-9 SideWinder instead R530 and S530F capability but S530F not used by EdA at this time CLB4, no CLB8 Seat Mk4 Inertial Navigation System Sagem UNI43 RWR BF AAR probe AN/ALE-40 Chaffs Flares dispenser (actually introduced after delivery, in ~mid 1980s) Syrel ELINT pod capability Covered units :

SF2 TMF Nesher (IDF) Upgrade/Remod Pack       4/5/2024
-For SF2, Any and All-(SF2:I and/or Full 5 Merged Suggested)
This is a full upgrade/remod pack for The Mirage Factory's Dassault Nesher as used by the Israeli Defense Force Air Force. Included in this package are 3 different skins:
101 Squadron (Camo)
253 Squadron (Camo)
117 Squadron (Camo w/Orange ID Triangles <1973)
They are set up and labeled to cause NO conflicts with the Nesher available as stock within the game or any others that may exist.  Skins remain in their original bmp format. Almost all markings are decals, and Decal Randomization is TRUE. All decals used are stock, in game items (you don't need SF2I for these) As you can see above, the SF2 date switch is active for the later, "Orange ID Triangle" skin. 101 & 253 Squadrons share the same start date (no actual date listed), meaning they're avaliable from the initial date of service, and are available to choose from the drop down menu. All necessary items are provided, weapons (drop tanks), pilots, seats, sounds, effects, and so forth. Some, you've probably got already!!!
When in-game, on the Aircraft Selection Dropdown you'll see:
Nesher S (TMF)
So you can't mistake them for anything other than TMF Birds (tm). This also means, there'll be NO conflict with the other Neshers, of mods thereof, out there.
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. All original readmes, when discoverable, are included. The 'Change Log' is, as always, in the Notes section below.
Happy Landings!

SF2 TMF Mirage IIICZ (SAAF) by PCG Upgrade/Remod Pack       3/24/2024
-For SF2, Any and All-(Full 5 Merged Suggested)
Found in the Archives! Didn't even know there WAS a TMF version! But here it is!!! :)
This is a full upgrade/remod pack for The Mirage Factory's Dassault Mirage IIICZ by PCG as used by the South AFrican Air Force.
Even though there is =NOT= a stock 3W Mirage IIICZ per se, this is set up and labeled to cause =NO= conflicts with any (other) Mirages available for the game (including the version built by Ludo M.54 from a stock 3W Mirage). Skins remain in their original bmp format.  All necessary items are provided, weapons, pilots, seats, sounds, effects, and so forth (most weapons used ARE stock 3W items, with few exceptions). This is a "nationalized" single-user only aircraft.
This aircraft is supplied with 3 skins:
"NMF"- as originally delivered
"Camo1" - Tan/Green (<1971)
"Lo-Viz" - 2-tone Blue & Grey (~1982)
All 16 CZs served with No.2 Squadron, “Flying Cheetahs”.
All skins use the same 'pool' of 16 ID/serial numbers. As can be expected, the SF2 Date Switch (tm) is active, and the LoViz skin starts in 1982 (best guess! based upon Ludo's Mirage F1CZ_Late). Also, the Date Switch is used on the Loadout ini, as newer missiles become available.
When in-game, on the Aircraft Selection Dropdown you'll see:
Mirage IIICZ (TMF)
So you can't mistake them for anything else but TMF Birds (tm).
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. All original readmes, when discoverable, are included. The 'Change Log' is, as always, in the Notes section below. As an Extra Added Bonus (tm), I've included a bunch of PDFs I found online, documenting the Development & History of the Mirage III & its variants in SAAF service. They are OUTSTANDING docs, and were the basis for some of the changes I've implemented here. Well worth the read!
Happy Landings!

SF2 TMF Mirage IIIEA (FAA) Upgrade/Remod Pack       3/14/2024
 
-For SF2, Any and All-(Full 5 Merged Suggested)
This is a full upgrade/remod pack for The Mirage Factory's Dassault Mirage IIIEA as used by the Argentine Air Force (Fuerza Aérea Argentina).
Even though there is =NOT= a stock 3W Mirage IIIEA, this is set up and labeled to cause NO conflicts with any (other) Mirages available for the game (including the Bandidos version). Skins remain in their original bmp format.  All necessary items are provided, weapons, pilots, seats, sounds, effects, and so forth (most weapons used ARE stock 3W items, with few exceptions). This is a "nationalized" single-user only aircraft.
This aircraft is supplied with 2 skins:
Ar1 - 8th Air Brigade, Camo
LoViz - Grupo 6 (LoViz Grey <1990)
Both skins use the same 'pool' of 16 ID/serial numbers, although the Lo-Viz only carries it's number on the front nose gear door (probably not historically correct - simply done for playability). These decals are the originals as issued in 2005. As can be expected, the SF2 Date Switch (tm) is active, and the LoViz skin starts in 1990.
When in-game, on the Aircraft Selection Dropdown you'll see:
Mirage IIIEA (TMF)
So you can't mistake them for anything else but TMF Birds (tm).
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. All original readmes, when discoverable, are included. The 'Change Log' is, as always, in the Notes section below.

Ejército del Aire F-104G - ALA-12

The Spanish Air Force received their F-104s under the Military Assistance Program: 18 Canadair-built F-104Gs
and three Lockheed-built TF-104Gs were delivered under MAP to Spain's Ejército del Aire in 1965.
These aircraft were transferred to Greece and Turkey when they were replaced by F-4 Phantoms in 1972.
It is notable that no aircraft were lost through accidents during 17,000 hours of operational use in Spain
although it should also be noted that the aircraft was used only in its intended role of an interceptor and
mainly in very good flying weather.
 
Ejército del Aire:
 
-Ala 6 based at Torrejon (later redesignated Ala 16); 61 Escuadron (later redesignated 161 and 104 Escuadron)
 
Install: as usual
 
Enjoy
