This mod represents the Israeli Air Force's Stratofreighter tankers. It has several historically accurate serials based on available photographs
and a decal sheet set. For simplicity I chose to release this as a skin for the C-97G rather than ini editing the radomes off for a proper B377.
 
Included
One skin for the aircraft and one folder for the decals

/////// About Operation Creek Party ////////
"1967 saw the beginning of Operation Creek Party. This operation provided air refueling support to United States
Air Forces in Europe tactical aircraft through the rotation of ANG aircrews and aircraft flying from Rhein Main Air Base,
Germany This operation, which continued until 1975, demonstrated the ability of the ANG to perform significant day-to-day
missions without being mobilized."

RoCAF was the sole foreign airforce ouside USA that used U-2. Several were downed over China.
 
Here some history: http://www.taiwanairpower.org/u2/
 
WHAT'S IN:
 
5 new RoCAF skins Blue/Black with proper decalset for Pasko/Wrench edition plane: http://combatace.com/files/file/11575-lockheed-u-2a-for-sf2/
[due the secret operations involved there are no many entries and good pictures, so I made my best]
 
A new tga loadout image
 
Some data.Ini tweakings:
- Export set on TRUE and edited to let RoCAF proper usage;
- Woking canopy (key=10), autoclosing at take off and opened when plane is parked (Thanks Mue for outstanding lod-viewer!)
- Great Viper63a pilot inside, grab here with Cia Black skin http://combatace.com/files/file/15894-black-skin-for-u-2a/
 
Old stock skins and old USAF black for SF1 by HI-HO Silver edited (upper canopy frame color) and converted to jpg. Decals randomized and a better danger one included.
 
INSTALL:
 
Inside U-2A aircraft folder delete original CiA and USAF skins, and U-2_loadout.bmp.
Install Viper63a pilot and sure his CIA Skin too.
Simply overwrite to mod content on your mod install
That's all.
 
CREDITS:
 
- Pasko for the old but gold model;
- Hi-Ho Silver for original SF-1 Usaf Black skin;
- Wrench for SF-2 porting;
- Mue for his umbeliable lod viewer: the tool of the century!
- Viper63a for his pilot (not included) and for make me reinstall this plane on my new PC!
- paulopanz for RoCAF skins, decals, edits and tweakings
 
NOTE:
 
I made some years ago these skins that now refreshed and upgraded for clashes over Formosa/Taiwan campaign
To use this plane in game as a target or in a campaign a proper high quote mission type should be needed.
I tried to ask Tk, when he answered us needing our money, to include but he denied because it couldn't be funny.
I don't think so and as we have several strategic recon plane like Yak-25 or SR-71 and RB-57R (never uploaded!) if someone could add this mission type to the game (i can't say how) he would be very welcome.
At the moment some good intercept missions for example for the MiG-19SV should be very useful to use this beauty.
 
That's all volks!

Black U-2 Add-on for the Lockheed U-2A Pack Released by Wrench
by Viper63a
 
This is an add-on skin so you will need the Lockheed U-2A Pack Released by Wrench installed first. You can download that "gem" here...
 
http://combatace.com/files/file/11575-lockheed-u-2a-for-sf2/
 
While I was creating my own Hangar and Loading screens, I noticed most of the U2s in the pix were black. So I changed one of the skins to black. I didn't just darken the skin, I recreated each panel to retain the detail and quality of the original. Optional Hangar and Loading screens are included.
 
Also available in this pack is an optional U2 (modified A12) Pilot in orange flight suit. To use this pilot, you will have to change the [Pilot] section of the "U-2_DATA.INI" file to use the "PilotModelName=U2PilotLate"...
 
This is a new skin, so there should be no conflicts...but I recommend that you back up your mod folder just in case.
 
* To install, simply unzip and copy the contents of the "To_Mod_Folder" folder to your StrikeFighter2 mod folder you have installed Wrech's pack to and Overwrite (if needed).
 
My StrikeFighter2 mod on Win97 64-bit was..(yours may be different)...
 
C:\Users\<your_id>\Saved Games\Thirdwire\StrikeFighter2...
 
For more info, read the "Original_sf2_u2_pak_readme.txt"...I mean read it, there is some good stuff about flying the U2 in the original readme.
 
Enjoy!

Sud Aviation/SNCASE SA.341 and SA.342 Gazelle Ver 1.0 for SF2
 
This is a third party addon of SA.341 and SA.342 Gazelle helicopter.
This is orignal model by BPAo moded by me.
The original flight model is standard as on many free to download helicopters modified by me. I am not using airbrakes or flaps but flying fast and slow is stil possible, even hovering with little practice.
It is designed for and works only in SF2 series. And will never work in SF1.
 
Please read this as some info from here might be useful in game.

This is highly modified SA-341 Gazelle by BPAo (TMF). Lucky, thanks to Crusader I had access to original max file. So I could work a little on this great helo. At first I was planing only to rebuild middle east Gazelles to have some balance of power in Wings Over Israel game. But having oportunity to work on file brought me at this point. And I decided to go with French Gazelles first.
Generaly model is almost the same as old one. My work was to add some parts here and there (rwr,cable cutters, new athos, some internal parts, skids etc..). Rearanged animations and added new. Weapons/pylons are part of airframe. Ive added new rotor. Also I've rearanged UVW mapping. So basicaly skins are 70% new.
 
I was putting some hangar/loading screenies but finaly it covers only few models. Rest must be done in future.
 

This mod represents few versions of Gazelle.
Unarmed called 'Lisse'. Early 1973 version without APX-397 sight and late already equipped with 'Athos'
Armed with 20mm cannon called 'Canon' and Version armed with HOT missiles usually called HOT but here it is split into two models; one with Athos sight and second with Viviene.
Also you can find here Air to Air escort version -early called 'Celtic' and late called "Mistral"
Mistral/Celtic version is set as attack role and has similar aircraft dutties as attack version plus escort. Thing is that you may consider changing role only to recon/escort as it will not perform well agianst ground targets.
 
 
 
******************IMPORTANT******************
 
This addon works with my WeaponPACK (included in rar file). Most of pylons/launch rails are part of airframe. So in weapons folder you have to put only ini files. All of weapon stations are made as specific station code and will work only with this cargo pack. Of course you can edit and use any other weapons availalbe.
 
Weapons included:
 
SA.341F2 'Canon'
NC621 20mm automatic canon. Two verson low and high RPM rate.
By default in loadout.ini it is low-rpm always. Better do not give hi-rpm to wingman.
 
SA.341M 'HOT' Sometimes called as SA.341F 'HOT' first model equipped with HOT missiles. Only 40 build because of underpowered engine. Somehow it was in use and passed form unit to unit until 90's - HOT-1,2,3 missiles.
 
SA.342L1 'Celtic'/'Mistral'
Mistral Air to air missiles.
 
SA.342M and M1
HOT-1,2,3 missiles.
 
All late versions have stations for flare launchers, suppresed exhaust and/or engine intake filter.
 
 
 
IMPORTANT THING ABOUT WEAPONSTATIONS.
 
F2 'Canon' and M/M1 version 90 and 93 have weaponstations calling for use Mistral ATAM.
THIS IS NOT for use on those helos. It is to have possibility to assign L1 Celtic/Mistral for wingman to have Air to air escort. So do not use it on F or M version as it will not apear there.
 
Cocpits.
All versions have dedicated cockpits. It is simplified and unified version of Gazelle cockpit.
In every pit you can switch from pilot to co-pilot/weapon operator seat.
On co pilot seat you have access to 1x "binocular" sight Athos/Viviane. By choosing radar on you will have "sniper" zoom. I dont know how many x zoom is that. It's zooming. And it is acurate somehow. With little practice you can even hit targets from 1-1.2 km.
aiming crosshair is 'what if' since I never found the look of real one
 
In HOT equipped version by selectiong HOT missile sight will lock on target as all HOT missiles are made as EOGR.
 
As Mistral and Celtic are escort versions ther is not much features in cockpit.
 

Animations and standard commands:
 
LANDING GEAR - Nose light deploy/retract at any speed.
 
ANIMATION 1 - right side door.
ANIMATION 2 - left side door.
ANIMATION 3 - rear doors.
 
Thereis also parking animation that works only when aircraft will be placed by game engine on airfiled as parked aircraft.
 
Flying.
As with all my previous helos flying is quite easy. With little practice you can even hoover. Without fake flaps and airbrakes.
Important here to control is using rudder and vector thrust control.
Normaly throtle vector control on 88-89 degree increase power 55% wait little and then increase to 100% and helo will take off nicely. 341 version got little less power in engine.
 

Skins.
There is just few skins but lot of use of it in few units. So it is more about decals assigned.
All serial numbers are based on available photos and ALAT documents and are historicaly correct.
I was trying to put all real units with real codes/numbers for specific year. Not always easy.
There is still some numbers missing.
 
Inside there is seperate folder Called "Operation_Dauget'
Inside you will find skins made for use with ODS mod for SF2.
It contains skins and decals for some units during French part of Operation Desert Storm. French codename for his operation was Dauget.
 
Only thing you have to do is coppy all files exept skin folders and use it in you ODS mod. Also specific loadouts for this period are provided. Due to hot climate/engine power, ALAT used only two HOT missiles. Same thing nearly ten years earlier during operation Manta in Tchad.
