SF2:E F-86F-40 Sabre, USAFE Skin Pak 2/7/16
-- For SF-2, FULL-5 merged, Reccomended --
This mod is to be applied to the "F-86F-40 Remod Pak", available at the following url:
http://combatace.com/files/file/13788-sf2-f-86f-40-sabre-remod-pak/
It is also advised, if/when installing both the original Remod Pak and these skins in SF2:E you =MUST= remove any/all other skins for non-European based users (such as JASDF, IIAF, EtAF). This will preclude any "oddites" that you might see over The Continent. See "Notes" below for more information on the included data and loadout inis.
In other words, this is a European-centric skin/decals/ini package only!!
In this package are skins for Sabres from the 50th FWB, USAFE, in the mid-1950s ...
10th FBS
81st FBS
417th FBS
also a remoded/corrected version of the...
461st FDS, 36th FDW (corrected FDW)
skin/decal ini with 'fixed' tail skin, and corrected Wing affiliation in the texture set ini. Also, a "Level 1 decal" has been added, activating the Squadron Displayed Name on the Loadout Screen. When installing, just allow the overwrite for this skin.
I've been unable to run down exactly WHICH F-86F version was used by these squadron, so simply chose to use the F-40, given the time frame they operated them (1953-58-ish).
As all the Sabres are mapped the same, can be used for any of the F-86F variants. However, if NOT using this on the -40 model, do =NOT= use the included data ini!! (but you can copy the changes, which are the 1950s pilot figure and 'steerable nose gear' callouts)
Almost all markings are decals, with the exceptions of the nose color bands for the 50th FBW birds. Tail bands are decals, at Level=1, and will activate the Squadron Displayed Name on the Loadout Screen (these are stock units,
listed in the game's SquadronList.ini). All skins use a "pool" of serial Serial and buzz numbers; while these should be considered 'generic' in nature, are for the variant depicted. Decal randomization is TRUE. All skins are in jpg format.
As well as a slightly tweeked data ini, a new "USAFE only" style loadout ini is included. . REMINDER -- this loadout ini is =ONLY= for use by American Sabres (this version) as used in the SF2:E mods folder!!! Don't use it anywhere else!
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them! Also, as this mod pack is specificly designed for an SF2:E (Europe) install, PLEASE read the "Notes" section for important information on the 2 inis included!
It is HIGHLY ADVISED you read this document through, after unzipping, but BEFORE installing to you game.
Just so we're clear on everything, this is for use in Europe (SF2:E) ONLY!!!
Happy Landings!
Wrench
Kevin Stein
Update 2/9/2016:
Replaced "1.jpg" on all skins, removed anti-glare panel.

JJ-2 "NIHLA"
History
In the late 1940's Paran had been a prolific buyer from the USSR, however, in early 1949, the Soviet Ambassador to Paran was caught in a compromising situation, and as it was seen as an insult to both the Emperor, and to his wifes, the offending party was escorted to the borders of Paran, after having an interview without coffee, with the Chief of Internal Security. Unfortunately this led to a cessation of trade between the USSR and Paran, so the Ministry of Defence was forced to look elsewhere for supplies of weapons, to defend against the dread Dhimar Sultanate . Lukilly the Chinese were making Migs under licence , so trade was opened with the Chinese in short order.
After the initial success with the J-2 Dabur programme, and with the assistance an advice of the Czech military advisors, work was started on Converting the JJ-2 ( Mig-15 UTI) from merely a training airframe, to something a little more flexible. Thus the NIHLA ( BEE) project was started, the basic JJ-2 was fitted with a reconnaissance suite, and also upgraded to be able to carry the larger J-3 ( Mig-17) drop tanks.
As the I.P.A.F.A. had already received deliveries of the initial J-2 Dabur's. it was decided that the JJ-2 Nihla would be the perfect aircraft to carry out the reconnaissance role for the Army.
Installation and blah blah
I have included ( I hope) everything needed in one package, ie. the aircraft ( you will need the Mig-15bis installed already to allow it to work) decals, weapons, pilots, and sounds. I have also included a SQADRONLIST.INI, and a NATIONS.INI to allow these birds to show up as a nation and with the correct markings. I have dropped all the respective files into their correct folders so, all you will need to do is unRAR/ZIP/7Z to your saved game folder, and allow overwrites ( if any) I have tested this on a full merged all bells and whistles SF2 so I assume it will work on unmerged too.as I said everything is there to get her up and running, just drop it all as is into your saved game folder and off you fly.
the camera is activated by hitting pg up twice ( or whichever key you have assigned to your radar ) the loadout is defaulted to drop tanks only, as this IS A RECCE bird, and not really ideal as an attack aircraft, however, if push come to shove and panic is ensuing, the Nihla CAN me armed with limited ordanance, in lieu of drop tanks ( so beware, VERY short range) and that's about it, please enjoy. I hope to be doing some more Parani/Dhimari stuff so for all you desert warriors, I hope you enjoy 'em as much as I do
CREDITS !!!
This is a revamp of PauloPanz's Mig15bis R3 so credit for the original model and workings to Mr Paulopanz, and to anyone else involved in the original aircraft. I have just played around and tweaked a few things. also added Czech weapons as loadouts instead of the bog standard FAB's etc.
I could not have done this for you to enjoy without the initial hard work by the likes of Mr Wrench, Mr Paulopanz and all the other fantastic modders on here to numerous to mention, I am an ametuer just dipping my toe in a very deep pond !!!

J-2 "DABUR"
History.
In 1955, the Imperial Parani Defence Ministry placed an order with China to purchase Chinese built Mig15Bis ( J-2 ) At the time they had Czech military advisors, who passed on information about the modification programme to their own S-103 airframes to give more potency, and a better ground attack capability.
The Parani aerospace bureau, quickly copied the specifications to the new J-2's. The resulting aircraft was designated J-2 " Dabur" (Dabur = Wasp) These aircraft were then passed onto the military for flight evaluation, and the results were mostly positive. It was decided by Parani High Command, that as the Air Force were going to be equipped with the J-3 (Mig 17) in the near future, that the J-2 airframes would be assigned to I.P.A.F.A. (Imperial Parani Army Forward Aviation ) units to supplement their existing fleet of IL-10's .
These aircraft soldiered on until 1970, when a replacement was being looked into by the Defence Ministry.

This mod is the McDonnell Douglas CF-110M Phantom II for the Canadian Armed Forces. The mod contains a Canadianised version of the stock F-4M, F-4M_75, and F-4M_80. As such, the aircraft will appear separately as "CF-110M (etc)". In addition new loadouts are offered portraying a possible mix of weapons for CAF CF-110M Phantoms including the BL755 and CRV-7 rocket (used on the CF-104), as well as purely speculative weapons like Skyflash. The centreline stores pylon remains nuclear-capable for NATO nuclear sharing. Skins are provided in Canadian Voodoo Grey for NORAD, and various CAF camouflage schemes for NATO.
Contents
CF-110M
Canadian Voodoo Grey skins for 409, 410, 416, and 425 Squadrons. CAF Green skins for 421, 422, 427, 439, and 441 Squadrons.
CF-110M_75
Symmetrical Canadian Voodoo Grey skins for 409, 410, 416, and 425 Squadrons. Symmetrical CAF Green skins for 421, 422, 427, 439, and 441 Squadrons.
CF-110M_80
Symmetrical Canadian Voodoo Grey skins for 409, 410, 416, and 425 Squadrons. Symmetrical CAF Camouflage skins for 421, 422, 427, 439, and 441 Squadrons (as worn by the CF-104 Starfighter). Symmetrical European 1 Camouflage skins for 421, 422, 427, 439, and 441 Squadrons.
History
During the 1960s, the Royal Canadian Air Force commenced a search for a more affordable fighter to supplement the CF-101 Voodoo, and the CF-104 Starfighter. The RCAF advised the government to acquire the F-4 Phantom II. The British Government proposed a cooperative project with Canada, involving Canada choosing the F-4M instead of the F-4E (preferred by the RCAF). The British plan offered Canada a higher offset than the F-4E would have. It would also help to maintain Commonwealth economic ties, keeping Britain away from Europe, and mainaining Canadian access to British markets.
While McDonnell acted as the primary contractor, assembly of all F-4Ms was contracted to Canadair. Production of the engines for Canada's Phantoms was allocated to Orenda (TF41-OEL-2).
The CF-110M entered service in 1969 with 409 Squadron. Subsequntly aircraft were allocated to NATO units. Initially, they served in the nuclear strike and reconnaissance role in Europe, and in the air defence role in North America. In 1972, their nuclear role was withdrawn and the role of conventional attack was substituted. For this role, the NATO CF-110s were equipped with conventional bombs, cluster bombs, including the British BL755, and the Canadian CRV-7 unguided rocket. SUU-23 gun pods were procured for the Europe-based Phantoms. Later, gun pods were purchased for NORAD Phantoms. Other new weapons for the Canadian Phantoms included the British Skyflash medium range air-to-air missile, and upgraded version of the AIM-9 Sidewinder. Pave Spike was added in 1980 to give the Phantoms the ability to guide their own laser-guided bombs.
The CF-110M served with the Canadian Armed Forces until 1991, when it was replaced with the CF-18.
Installation
Copy the contents of ModFolder into your mod folder. Overwrite where necessary. If you had downloaded the previous CF-110M, you should delete it. A new non-unified version in RCAF markings (rather than CAF markings) is in the works, and should be available soon.

Hello volks!
THIS IS NOT MY MODEL, but I menaged to find it and I forgot which site was that... Not A-Team Skunkworks... The one on that site doesn't work for me.
I don't know who made this model but I owe him/her BIG thanks! Cheers!
Big thanks to yet another unfamiliar person to me for making the pilot I used and added here!
And last but not the least big big thank you goes to Bongodriver whose cockpit I used!
I haven't tried this game anywhere else besides Wings Over Europe with October 2008 Patch!
After spending hours trying to figure out how some stuff work, I decided to update this little marvel!
So... what are the new stuff or let's say updated ones?
1: Massive improvement on the skin itself! Took me forever to do it the way it mostly resembles to the real plane.
2: Further adjustments of maneuverability.
3: Added some of the effects which it didn't have before. e.g. Fuselage Vortex Emitter
4: Fixed LOADOUT.ini file
5: Check out those afterburners! ;)
6: It has it's own pilot now, not the default pilot anymore.
Installation instructions:
1: put content from the "Aircraft" folder to Your "Aircraft" folder
2: put content from the "Sounds" folder to Your "Sounds" folder
3: put content from the "Effects" folder into Your "Effects" folder
4: ENJOY PLAYING THIS BABY AS MUCH AS I DO!
I think that is it for now. I am not sure if I've forgotten something to mention.
If you have any questions or suggestions, I would LOVE to hear them!
Best regards,
Pavle!

This is a what-if mod of the stock F-105D Thunderchief, with Sundowner's new high-resolution skins, for the Royal Australian Air Force.
Backstory
During the late 1950s, Australia faced a worsening strategic situation to its north. Having helped Indonesia gain its independence in 1949, Australia now faced an increasingly hostile government, led by the nationalist dictator Sukarno. As time went on, Sukarno tempered his nationalism with communism, and considered himself South-East Asia's foremost anti-colonialist. Indonesia's communist party, the PKI, was the third largest communist party in the world, exceeded by only the Communist Party of China and the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.
Sukarno's closer relationship with the USSR had tangible rewards for Indonesia's armed forces, the TNI. Soviet weapons poured into Indonesia. Australian defence leaders doubted that their Avon-Sabres could intercept Indonesia's Il-28 Beagle bombers, and were absolutely certain that they couldn't touch Tu-16 Badgers. Likewise, the ability of the GAF Canberra to survive against an air defence equipped with supersonic MiG fighters was questionable at best.
To be assured of their ability to attack a target in Indonesia (possibly with a "special weapon"), Australia needed a new strike aircraft. The Menzies Government ordered the F-111C off the drawing board. In the meantime, an interim aircraft was sought. The B-47 Stratojet was offered, but rejected. The B-47 was seen as too unwieldly for the RAAF. The USAF's current tactical strike aircraft, the F-105 Thunderchief, seemed to fit the bill.
Australia's Thunderchiefs were delivered quickly. Shortly after the F-111 order was placed, Thuds began to arrive in Australia. Three RAAF Squadrons were equipped with the F-105, 1 Squadron, 2 Squadron, 6 Squadron, and 12 Squadron. 2 Squadron was deployed to RAAF Butterworth for forward defence, while 1 and 6 Squadrons were based at RAAF Amberley. As with most RAAF aircraft, it served with the Aircraft Research and Development Unit.
1965 was a key year in the history of the Australian Thunderchiefs. The Abortive Coup in Indonesia in September removed Australia's primary threat, and Australia committed combat forces to support the government of South Vietnam.
2 Squadron were moved from RAAF Butterworth to RAAF Ubon in eastern Thailand. 2 Squadron's F-105 Thunderchiefs operated alongside their US equivalents in attacking North Vietnam.
The RAAF's Thuds remained in Thailand until the withdrawal of Australian forces in Vietnam in 1972. During that time, they operated on both sides of the DMZ, and were the preferred support for the Australian Task Force in Phuoc Tuy province. The Task Force especially appreciated the accuracy of the Australian F-105 pilots. Several RNZAF pilots flew Australian Thunderchiefs on exchange postings.
As the USAF replaced their Thunderchiefs with Phantoms, the American Thuds were given to the RAAF to replace their losses.
When 2 Squadron returned to Australia, it was immediately disbanded, and its crews were sent to 1 and 6 Squadrons to train for the F-111C, which was finally to arrive.
The RAAF's Wild Weasels continued in service until 1983.
Skins
Natural metal - This is the scheme in which the aircraft were delivered. In RAAF service, it was used until 1966, when circumstances forced the RAAF to camouflage their aircraft. This skin is provided only for the F-105D, however should you wish to use it with the F-105D_66, then simply copy the RAAFSilver folder into the F-105D_66 folder, and rename the aircraft textures from F-105D_x.bmp to F-105D_66_x.bmp. SEA - This scheme was introduced for the RAAF's Thuds in 1966 for usage in Vietnam. All RAAF F-105D Thunderchiefs eventually wore this scheme. It persisted until the retirement of the Thud. Anti-Flash White - Between 1962 and 1965, ARDU (the RAAF's test flying unit) operated three F-105Ds in a special anti-flash white scheme. The aircraft were used for testing a variety of conentional and nuclear weapons. While ARDU's home base was RAAF Laverton, the White Thuds operated almost exclusively from the secretive Woomera Test Facility.
Installation
Copy the contents of ModFolder into your mod folder. Merge/overwrite when prompted. Please see Notes first.
Notes
This mod contains a squadronlist.ini file. If you do not wish to alter your own, then you should add the following into your squadronlist.ini:
[squadron193]
Name=2RAAF
DisplayName=No. 2 Squadron
Nation=Australia
[squadron716]
Name=1RAAF
DisplayName=No. 1 Squadron
Nation=Australia
[squadron725]
Name=ARDU
DisplayName=Aircraft Research and Development Unit
Nation=Australia
[squadron726]
Name=6RAAF
DisplayName=No. 6 Squadron
Nation=Australia
[squadron727]
Name=12RAAF
DisplayName=No. 12 Squadron
Nation=Australia
Should these numbers not correspond with those in your squadronlist.ini, then change the numbers on the file, and the filenames of the SQN decals accordingly. Note that there are two decals for ARDU. Both must be renamed.

Bolkkow-Blohm stealth demonstrator "Firefly"
This aircraft as far as I know did fly but I havent seen anything recent ..
So,as far as I know this is the only 3d model in any game I know of...
It was a pleasure to make and give to the community of Third Wire Flight sims...
This aircraft is NOT compatible with SFP2..But can be edited to fly in that version..
Even though this is a stealth a\c,I couldnt find any info on internal missile bays so it carries external,jettisionable pylons,and a cannon that deploys\detracts automatically,when the fire button is depressed...keeping in the stealthy mode..
I hope you enjoy this model..
Templates will follow asap...
