    1. Seahawk F.1A, Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm - A "What If..." mod for SF/WoV/WoE, Korean War installs
       
      This is a mod of Bunyap's Seahawk into a "What If..." version, as might have been used by the FAA during the Korean War. It's a sort of "kitbashed" version, as I've combined the F.1 and FB.3 versions, to give a sort of field-modification feel to the weapons loadouts. I say 'kitbashed', when perhaps I should say 'combined', as the F.1s never had any provisions for A-G munitions; no rockets, no bombs, no napalm -- just their guns. So, I figured, due to the extingincies of war, the MoD and/or crews in the field, perfromed a hack-job, and "borrowed" the mounts and wiring and other etc bits off other aircraft to give them the capability to load and fire the 60-lb rocket, so prevalent on RAF/FAA aircraft.
       
      The skin, which is 'borrowed' from the FGA.6, has been repainted, from a new partial template (new panel lines added where necessary), with the black-and-white Invasion Stripes used in the KTO for identification of Allied/UN/FAA aircraft (as seen on the Sea Fury, Firefly and Seafires). One of the best things about Buny's Seahawks, is they're all mapped identicaly, making the job soooo much easier.
       
      The skin represents 898 Squadron, Fleet Air Arm, embarked aboard HMS OCEAN in the very-late 1952/early 1953 time frame. New decals have been created by me, with serial numbers for 24 aircraft (probably at least twice the number in a Royal Navy carrier squadron). The serials are 100% accurate, as they ARE all from production F.1s, but since this is obviously a 'What If...' aircraft, they can't be considered accurate for the Korean War. (neither can the aircraft, but what the hell...it's a game and all for fun!!!)
       
      This is an almost full aircraft package, with all the inis, skin, new decals, lods etc. Excepting that NO cockpit has been supplied with this aircraft. However, for WoE users, I've included a modified version of the HunterFGA9 cockpit ini, with the pilot positon adjusted to match the physical model. In my estimation, it's the best one available, as it has that nice Post-War/1950s steam gauge look. As an alternative, for SF/WoV users, I've included the cockpit ini from my 'jet-modded-Spitfire pit'. You'll see it as "SeaHawk_cockpit.ini". You'll need to download my WW2:1946 Vampire to obtain all the necessary cockpit bits. More, highly detailed, step-by-step information is below, in the "To Instalate" instructions.
       
      2 Hangar screens have been supplied; one is my old version and another BRAND NEW!! -only available in this mod- WoE style, repsenting a carrier deck. The Loading screen is still the original from Bunyap.
       
      =You MUST have the Bunyap Weapons Pak to have the WW2/Post-War/Korean War Era weapons!!! I've not supplied any of the rockets or drop tanks with this mod, as they are already in the BunyPak. If not using the BunyPak (ie: TMF Weapons Pak), you'll need to get the Seahawk Package at CombatAce, as it contains the drop tanks. The Rockets you'll have to add from the BunyPak =
       
      IMPORTANT: This aircraft is designed to be used in SF/WoV/WoE -- it has NOT been tested in WoI. In fact, I don't think I've even flown ANY of the Seahawks in WoI yet!!! But it should be good as is. It's a jet, not a prop job; so hopefully...
       
      As always, READ the enclosed readme for full, detailed install instructions.
       
      Happy Landings!!

    3. These are alternate tiles made from satellite images for the DS terrain
      included in the latest version of ODS for SF2. They are 1024x1024.
       
      They can be used in other terrains that use the stock desert tiles,
      however I did not make all tiles from the stock SF2 desert tile set, only
      those used in the DS terrain. For example, I did not create the river
      tiles.

    4. This is cockpit for Swedish SAAB A-21A-3, ground attacker variant of J-21.
       
      Created for TSF mod flyers with help from JonathanRL. Thank you mate.
      Small disclaimer is required at this point: as this was to be part of the TSF expansion I was asked to be on hold with releasing those and other TSF-relevant cockpits -but as now Expansion is not going too well and YEYEYE made public his great 21 pack few months ago (been away!!! Sorry didn't noticed that!!!) I decided to release these I got green light for.
       
      To install unpack to your A21A-3 folder, overwrite when asked. I recommend backing up any files or cockpits you are going to replace just in case.

    8. A skin set for Russouk2004's Croatian MiG-21SM/MF òr 5tipe's MiG-21bisD.
       
      Two silver/grey skins for the early starting days of the Croatian Air Force (1991-ish),
      and two camo skins for the 1993+ period. Serials are used from Russouk2004's
      MiG-21SM/MF, so keep that in mind.
       
      If you want to use it for 5tipe's BisD, rename all skin files from "MF" to "BIS".
       
      Enjoy!
       
       
      Thanks to:
       
      - Russouk2004 for his MiG-21SM/MF_Croat.
      - 5tipe for his MiG-21BisD.
      - Unknown for the LSK camo skin I used. Let me know!
      - My tour, for the inspiration.
