Basic modding skills are required to run this mod.  (copy/paste, mod folder structure, etc.) 
Install:
Copy and paste specific folders into the correct destination.
Mod requires new fuel tanks that are added to the mod - generally RF version uses new fuel tanks and recon wing tip pods.
In the game under a prefix. KDF. * you will find F-84E , F-84G and RF-84G
* Kongelige Danske Flyvevåbnet
F-84E served very shortly for testing purposes, and F-84G ended active service in 1961. RF-84G was a European poor-man recon aircraft, using modified fuel tanks for a camera pod. Several countries used a similar concept for interim recon flight in the case of Denmark they were waiting for RF-84F. Two different recon pod setups are added, also counterbalance fuel tank and additional Fletcher fuel tanks.
RF-84G - KA-F and KA-G never received 'RF mod' but served in 729 Esk FR flight, during these years.
This is a very old model with some flaws....but as long as we do not have a new one I made new skins. 
All skins are in 4096x4096 format based on new templates. You can easily resize as needed. 
During service years, after maintenance, airframes were not always returned to the previous original squadron - resulting in a mess of squadron colors (until someone in the squadron repainted again) - but I believe I have the correct squadron colors for those years represented in a mod. 
All serial numbers are historically correct for specific squadrons/years of service in the Danish Air Force.
Check weapon names in loadout.ini and sounds to match your files.

SF2 F-105D Thunderchief by ArmorDave Update Pack                 12/3/2023
= For SF2, Any and All =
* Full-5 Merged reccomended *
** 1stGen Salvage Operation #7 **
This is a revamp and reissue ArmorDave's F-105D Thunderchiefs for the SF2 Environment (tm). These aircraft were first released in 2004, actually predating their 3rd Wire arrival in Wings Over Vietnam. These were among the first 3-party add-ons for the Strike Fighters series.
This mod is split into two aircraft:
F-105D-25 (NMF) (actually covers all early D model Thuds)
F-105D-31 (SEA 3 Tone) (Vietnam and later)
The -25 is equivilant to the stock 3W F-105D, while the -31 is pretty much the same as the 3W F-105D_66; in fact it HAS a 1966 start date.
The -25 has 3 skins/decal sets:
7th TFS "Bunyaps" 49th TFW - USAFE Spangdahlem Air Base, West Germany
562nd TFS, 23rd TFW - (shark mouth)
563rd TFS "Ace Of Spades", 23rd TFW -both at McConnel AFB, then Takhali RTAFB
The -31 also has 3 skin/decal sets:
333rd TFS "Lancers", 355TFW
357th TFS "Licking Dragons", 355TFW - both at Takhali RTAFB
149th TFS, Virginia ANG (auto start date 1971)
The SF2 'date swtich' will turn on the VA ANG skin in 1971(ish). All skins remain in their original bmp format. All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. Each unit has 24 historical serial and/or buzz numbers. As I always do, those marked with a star (*) are 100% correct for the unit. Those marked with a cross/plus sign (+) while serving in the same Wing, could =NOT= be run down to a particular squadron. Those aircraft with 'nose art' or name badges on the wings (333rd & 357th) are all new, and match their real life aircraft (ie: name ---> serial). As all the squadrons, excepting the VA ANG skin, are listed in the game's Squadron List, those displayed names are activated via Level=1 decals. Drop tanks are supplied for both aircraft, in NMF and Camo, as is a new pilot figure. All other weapons used are stock 3rd Wire, excepting any AGM-12 Bullpups you may want to load. (see notes for more info on loadouts)
When in-game, you'll see on the Aircraft Selection Dropdown listing ...
F-105D-25 Thunderchief (AD)
F-105D-31 Thunderchief (AD)
This will diferentiatalize them from the stock 3W or any others that you may have (or not). The "AD", of course, recognizes ArmorDave's contribution to SF.
As always, fairly easy to follow yet detailed install instructions are included. Please read them! Also, please read the Notes section for more expositions on which, what, why, how and/or who (whom?). For the historical records, all original readmes are included.
Good Hunting!
