    1. This is an Expansion Pack. You need The Scandinavian Front 2 in order to play this mod.
      (Please read the included Credits file. I could not do what I do without the lovely people who helped me by allowing me to use their work!)
       
      The official soundtrack of the mod is
      with Sabaton. 
      Before downloading the main files again if you seek to patch the game, check the support topic. Patches are posted there too.
       
      Main Features:
      * Several new and unique aircraft to fly, amongst them the Saab 18, Saab 21, Myrsky, Fouga Magister and Avia S-92!
       
      * New cockpits for the De Havilland Mosquito, Saab 18, Saab 21 and the Fouga Magister by Stary; one of the best cockpit builders for Strike Fighters.
       
       
      * A new Campaign, featuring an all out liberation of Finland by Swedish and Norwegian Forces set in the year 1950 including Amphibious Assaults.
       
      * Fly for the Finnish Soviet Socialist Republic! A TSF First, this Campaign will allow you to fly an aircraft for the communists, defeating the filthy, warmongering imperialists in the name of Socialism!
       
      * Bug Fixes and updates to the older campaigns, adding or replacing aircraft where suitable.
      Included Campaigns:
      Campaign Name: Operation Harmaahylje
      Year: 1950
      Flyable Services: Swedish Air Force, Norwegian Air Force, Finnish Soviet Socialist Republic Air Force.
      Naval Combat: Yes
      Ground War Scale: Large
      What to expect: Korea War dogfights with very unique aircraft, a long and intense ground war that does not pull any punches.
       
      Installation:
      This mod requires SF2: Europe & SF2 North Atlantic with The Scandinavian Front 2 Installed, Expansion Pack 1 and DLC 008 J 34 Hawker Hunter is highly recommended.
       
      First of all, make sure you are using SF2: Europe and that it is patched to the latest version. This is _vital_.
      Check http://www.thirdwire.com if you are unsure what the latest patch is, but the game should notify you if there is new patches out.
       
      If you are using a mod, or plan to use one, TSF will mess around with settings other mods may be using. As such, creating a seperate mod folder for TSF is
      a good idea. If you only plan to use TSF, then this step can be bypassed.
       
      Now go to your Mod Folders. For Windows 7/Vista, this is located in C:\Users\Name\Saved Games\Thirdwire. For Windows XP Users, it is usually in My Documents.
      Unzip the contents of the 7zip files "TSF2" into the mod folder already containing TSF 2. Allow any overwrites.
       
      Notes:
      Any person who may be responsible for the fact that Team TSF is not allowed to use the A-Team Saab 37 Viggen may not play this modification. If any breach of this rule occurs, I am at full liberty to mete out whatever punishment I deem fit. By downloading the modification, you agree to this condition.

    2. Update:
      I forgot to mention in readme there is optional "icky green" textures set in it's folder for those who find this shade of blue not to their taste. Matter of copying that one into main cockpit folder and overwriting
       
      This is fairly detailed cockpit representing somewhat "generic" MiG-23 interceptor cockpit. Fits well or "close enought" MF ML MLD etc interceptors series 1 and series 2 of Floggers.
       
      Build for and tested with Eburger68&Team Floggers Pack:
      http://combatace.com/topic/66562-sf2-mig-23-mig-27-floggers-part-1/
      and subsequent parts
       
      By default pre-set for use in MLD variant, so feel free to adjust to your favourite Flogger of choice. Do not use at the moment in the ground attack versions as dedicated BN cockpit is in the works
       
      Read the included readme for more informations.

    3. Mirage IIIBE
       
      The Dassault Mirage III is a family of single-seat, single-engine, fighter aircraft produced by Dassault Aviation for the French Air Force and widely exported. Prominent operators included Australia, Argentina, South Africa and Israel, as well as a number of nonaligned nations. Though an older design, the second generation fighter is still a fairly maneuverable aircraft and an effective opponent in close range dogfighting. In French service it was armed with air-to-ground ordnance or R.550 Magic air-to-air missiles.
       
      The versatility of the design enabled production of trainer, reconnaissance and ground-attack versions as well as the Dassault Mirage 5, Dassault Mirage IIIV and Atlas Cheetah variants. A Mirage III was the first European combat aircraft to exceed a speed of Mach 2 in horizontal flight.
       
      Requirements: DLC Mirage IIIO.

    5. Mirage IIIBS
       
      The two-seater Mirage for conversion training, first flew on October 21, 1959 and received the designation Dassault Mirage IIIB.
      The fuselage is 60 cm longer than the single seat, and the two cabins are closed by a single cover. As the rear cabin occupies the space for avionics in single-seat, this equipment usually goes in the nose, instead of radar. Thus, training the Mirage III can not perform interception missions, although they have limited ground attack capability.
       
      The first Mirage IIIB of the production line for the Air Force of France flew on 19 July 1962. While maintaining the Atar 9B engine 6000 kg of thrust, the plane weighs little and performs well. Among the countries that have acquired Mirage training, most of them with guns, was Israel (Mirage IIIBJ), Lebanon (IIIBL), South Africa (IIIBZ) and Switzerland (IIIBS).

    6. Mirage IIIBZ
       
      The Armée de l'Air also ordered a two-seat Mirage IIIB operational trainer, which first flew in October 1959. The fuselage was stretched about a meter (3 ft 3.5 in) and both cannons were removed to accommodate the second seat. The IIIB had no radar, and provision for the SEPR rocket was deleted, although it could carry external stores. The AdA ordered 63 Mirage IIIBs (including the prototype), including five Mirage IIIB-1 trials aircraft, ten Mirage IIIB-2(RV) inflight refueling trainers with dummy nose probes, used for training Mirage IVA bomber pilots, and 20 Mirage IIIBEs, with the engine and some other features of the multi-role Mirage IIIE. One Mirage IIIB was fitted with a fly-by-wire flight control system in the mid-1970s and redesignated 'Mirage IIIB-SV (Stabilité Variable); this aircraft was used as a testbed for the system in the later Mirage 2000.

    8. Strike Fighters 2: North Cape
       
      (Version 1.2)
       
      This is an add-on package for the "Strike Fighters 2: North Atlantic" Expansion Pack available at CombatAce. The "Strike Fighters 2: North Cape" (SF2NC) add-on includes two new campaigns, both set in northern Norway during the late 70's and early 80's. Also included are fourteen new aircraft and a dozen new ground objects to fill out these new campaigns.
       
      This add-on package is designed to be applied over the top of an existing installation of the SF2NA Expansion Pack. You can download the three main Expansion Pack files here:

      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      Summary of New Campaigns
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
       
      This add-on supplies five campaigns for the SF2NA Expansion Pack, all set in northern Norway during the late '70's and early to mid '80's.
       
      Two of the new campaigns are variants of the same underlying campaign:
       
      - Nordic Sword (79): After war erupts in Europe, the USS Nimitz carrier battle group sails north off the Norwegian coast in September 1979 to contain the Soviet Northern Fleet as it attempts to break out from the Barents Sea and into the North Atlantic. A trailing Amphibious Group carries U.S. Marines ready join the Norwegian Army in its fight to prevent Soviet armored regiments from seizing the North Cape. The Norwegian Air Force flies F-5As and F-104s. Temporarily deployed to Norwegian air bases are two squadrons of USAF F-4Es and a squadron of USAF F-111Fs. A squadron of B-52Gs, hastily deployed to RAF Fairford (off map), is available for use in theater.
       
      - Nordic Sword (82): A variant of the 1979 campaign, set in 1982. The USN carrier battle group is led by the USS Independence. The Norwegian Air Force has one squadron that has transitioned from F-104s to F-16As. Temporarily deploying to Norwegian air bases are two squadrons of RAF F-4Ms and one squadron of USAF F-111s.
       
      The other three comprise a linked series of campaigns set in 1986:
       
      - Fighting Withdrawal (86): Just hours after the Warsaw Pact invades Central Europe, Soviet armored columns and airborne troops launch an assault on northern Norway. As Norwegian army units fall back, the USS Nimitz and her escorts are ordered to withdraw from the waters off Norway, lest the carrier and her invaluable air wing fail prey to Soviet bombers filling the skies over Norway.
       
      - Return to Norway (86): With the ground war in Central Europe stalemated and the Soviet Northern Fleet defeated in the North Atlantic following a failed assault on Iceland, the USS Nimitz returns to Norway with the USS Forrestal and a Marine amphibious group to retake the airfields and ports under Soviet control in northern half of the country. The Marines will seize Narvik, splitting the Soviet occupation forces, while relying on the two carriers' air wings to provide a covering umbrella of air support.
       
      - Assault on the Kola Peninsula (86): Three weeks after the successful landing of Marines near Narvik and subsequent defeat of Soviet forces in Norway, the Nimitz and Forrestal battle groups take position in the Barents Sea to strike Soviet air bases and naval facilities on the Kola Peninsula.
       
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      Terrain Notes
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
       
      This add-on is based on the North Cape terrain created by Baltika and updated by Wrench. As Wrench notes in his ReadMe for his updated version, the terrain is not in a final, finished state. Thus, you should be aware of some of the terrain's anomalies, which I have not been able to redress.
       
      Air Bases
       
      Some air bases on this terrain are un-usable for various reasons.
       
      - Some air bases sit on ground that still needs proper flattening. At affected air bases, the runway and parking areas may disappear from view at ground level. In the very worst cases, aircraft may bounce around or even explode on the ground as they taxi or take off.
       
      For the included campaigns I have not used any of the most affected air bases, though at one Norwegian air base (Narvik-Framnes) the runway will disappear from view at ground level (aircraft still taxi and take off without issue).
       
      - Some air bases sit in the middle of heavily forested areas, with trees crowding the runway and taxiways. Most of these bases are in the southern area of the terrain, which is generally not used for the campaign.
       
      In sum, although some air bases on this terrain have unresolved issues, they are for the most part not used in the campaigns. If you try to fly game-generated single missions, though, you could find yourself starting from a problem air base.
       
      Naval Groups
       
      One other problem you could encounter in game-generated single missions involves the placement of opposing naval forces. Although the terrain has been properly converted to SF2NA Naval Map standards, the single mission engine often ignores the designated water areas for friendly and enemy naval groups, which are generally along the northern peripheries of the map. The game engine seems to prefer spawning naval groups in the center of the map -- the Gulf of Bothnia -- often right on top of one another.
       
      This misplacement of naval forces really only becomes an issue if you are flying naval aircraft off carriers in game-generated single missions. When flying a naval aircraft on a single mission, you would do well to check the mission map before taking off. If the game engine has chosen to locate opposing naval groups in ridiculous places, back out and start a new mission.
