This project started with a little mod here and there to make the Vipers more modern. FastCargo started the PM thread on 28 Jul 2011 and here we are 10 months later we have this.
This mod is dedicated to Oli (bpao) he started us on this journey and I hope, I really hope, we lived up to his expectations.

NATO Fighters IV+: Post-Dec2009 Update Pack
-------------------------------------------
 
This package contains an update pack for the NATO Fighters IV+ (NF4+) add-on designed for "Strike Fighters 2: Europe" (SF2E) from ThirdWire. It does several things:
 
1) Updates the NF4+ add-on for use with the SF2E
Dec2009 & later patch levels.
 
2) Adds several new aircraft and AAA objects.
 
3) Adds a number of new textures to existing aircraft.
 
4) Fixes or updates numerous other files in the
original NF4+ mod.
 
This update pack should be applied to SF2E/NF4+ installations that are patched to the Dec2009 or later patch level, including Feb2010, Mar2010, or May2010. If you are running SF2E at the Jun2009b patch level and do NOT intend to update to one of the later patch levels mentioned above, you should NOT apply this update pack.
