    3. The Westland Wyvern was a British single-seat carrier-based multi-role strike aircraft built by Westland Aircraft that served in the 1950s, seeing active service in the 1956 Suez Crisis. Production Wyverns were powered by a turboprop engine driving large and distinctive contra-rotating propellers and could carry aerial torpedoes

    5. SF2 KAW Era C-47A 21st TCS SkinPak 12/30/2014
       
      = For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
       
      *You MUST have SF2I as part of you merged install, as that's where the Skytrain comes from. If you don't, do not download this mod as it will do you no good!!*
       
      A new, revamped version of the skin found in Paulopanz' C-47 Pak. This has a new replacment natual metal skin for the:
       
      21st Troop Carrier Squadron, aka "The Kyushu Gypsies"
       
      as seen during the Korean Conflict.
      All markings (exepting the tail band) are decals; decal randomization is TRUE. Serial numbers are 100% historically accurate for this unit. Please note, 2 or 3 of these aircraft were "on loan" to the USAF from several UN Allied forces (Greece, iirc). They are also accurate, but carry the American insignias.
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them.
       
      Happy Landings

    6. RF-101C 18TRS OP Sun Run
       
      This is a new skin for one of the finest 3rd part models for the SF2 series, ie the RF-101C Voodoo from the Voodoo Mega Pack V2.0 by ErikGen, available here at CA:
       
       
      http://combatace.com/files/file/12117-f-101-mega-pack-version-20/
       
       
      It represents the six planes of 18TRS that took part at the Operation Sun Run in 1957, including the spare cells No. 5 & 6. Operation “Sun Run” was the attempt of a transcontinental speed record from LA to NY, which the Voodoos achieved with a time of 3:05,39 for the single trip and of 6:42,06 for the round trip.
       
      Stunning how this record was beaten only 33 years later in 1990, by an SR-71A which took just 64min for the trip from LA to NY...
       
      There are not very much pictures out there, even less reliable paintings, the best information I could gather are the following: a nice article from Jan van Waarde, which is the best story about Sun Run you can find far and wide, a picture by McDonnell of Sun Run No3 before delivery, the “propaganda” video praising the record and finally... some Hasegawa blue prints:
       
       
      http://de.scribd.com/doc/195090334/Sun-Run-Jan-Van-Waarde-2010
       
       

       
       
      http://www.boeing.com/history/mdc/graphics/hist033b.htm
       
       
      I used the original metal skin of the 45TRS by Dave (or at least I think... ) coming with the Mega Pack, I cleaned it up to make it naked and basic, and finally added every marking and insigna with the technique of decals. This was surely a bit time-consuming and a kind of compromise, but was to me the only way to display those 6 very different looking planes using just one folder...
       
      The specular dds maps are also based on those from the original Mega Pack. The USAF star badge and the TAC patch are original TW work, everything else was drawn from scratch by me. Tested with Strike Fighters 2 Exp2.
       
      Install extracting to:
       
      X:\your mod folder\Strike Fighters2...\Objects\
       
       
      I really hope you are going to love this little piece of aviation history.

    7. MIDWAY TERRAIN
      =====================
       
      I.
      Midway terrain is made for "Strike Fighters Project 1" SFP1.
       
      You can use it in Wings over Vietnam and Wings over Europe too.
      Wings over Israel can handle this terrain too, but the flight modells of prop driven planes shows anomalies in WOI.
       
      ==============================================
       
      II.
      Midway terrain covers a part of the Central Pacific Ocean with the atolls of Kure and Midway.
      It is the place were in 1942 a big Air-Sea-Battle was fought between the Imperial Japanese Navy and the US Navy. The japanese Navy was superior in numbers of ships, but the US side had some major advantages. No.1, the japanese communication code was broken, so that the US Navy commanders were able to read the enemy commands. No.2, the US had radar coverage, so that enemy surprise attacks were nearly impossible. No.3, the US had the superior number of airplanes which were deciding during the battle.
      The battle was fought as a pure air to sea combat. No single gunfire exchange between naval vessels took place.
      The result was that the japanese Navy lost 4 carriers and the US Navy lost 1 carrier. It was a impressive victory for the USA in Pacifice war theater. You can compare it with the Battle of Moscow on the Eastern Front or the first british victories in North Africa.

      *********************************************
      III Known problems
       
      Up today it is impossible to take off and land from carriers while using single missions which are generated by random single mission screen.
      Thatswhy i added invisible airfields for taking off and landing in the centre of carrier formations. You will also start from the sea. This is not satisfying. Thatswhy it is the best to start the mission in the air to overcome this problem.

      PS
       
      Q: How i can get Midway Terrain running in WOV, WOI or WOE
       
      A:
      1. Open file Midway.ini
      2. Look for line CatFile=..\Desert\Desert.cat
      3. Replace this line with:
      for WOV: CatFile=..\VietnamSEA\VietnamSEA.cat
      for WOI: CatFile=..\IsraelME\IsraelME.cat
      for WOE: CatFile=..\GermanyCE\GermanyCE.cat

    8. FIRST THING.
       
      You will need to have the Essex CV LOD. from Rising Sun over at the Yankee Air Pirates site. This skin and future skins I plan to release will not work with out it.
       
      ===============================================
      TO INSTALL:
       
      unzip to a temp folder or your desktop or somewhere else that's easy to find
       
      In the Essex folder, located in the GroundObject folder, make a copy of one of the CV9 skin folder and rename it what you want such as CV12 MS33.
       
      Then, simply, copy/paste the provided CV12 MS33 folder into you newly created CV12 MS33 skin folder.
       
      You'll probably be asked "OVERWRITE?", just say Yes.
       
      That's it.
       
      ----------------------------------------------
      Notes:
       
      This is the Mesure 33 pattern the USS Hornet had during WW2
       
      Here is a link so you may see what ship had what Mesure pattern.

      Legal BS:
      This is freeware;(That means you can't make someone pay for it) it CAN be distrubuted if the original readmes and all other pieces of the package remain intact.
      Remember to add the names of all contributors, modders, suppliers, ect.
      -------------------------------------------
      About the skin.
       
      This is a very rough and first attempt at doing skins for ships for me.If you can and want to improve them and add more detail, please do. I have no problem with any one doing that. Due to some limitations with the BMP file for the island, the pattern will not be exact. This is mainly with the 5in
       
      mounts and weapons directors. They would need their own bmp files. If some one can figure out how to do that, plaese let me know.
