======================
PAF F-7MP Airbolt v1.9
======================
 
A. Installation :
 
1. Drop the 'F-7MP Airbolt' folder into your Strike Fighters/Objects/Aircraft, or your
Wings Over Vietnam/Objects/Aircraft folder.
2. Open the 'Add To Sounds' folder and copy the four .wav files to either your
Strike Fighters/Sounds, or your Wings Over Vietnam/Sounds folder.
3. Your copy of Strike Fighters should be patched to SP3.1 standard. Your copy of
Wings Over Vietnam should be patched to Patch 2 standard.
4. You should also have the latest Weapons Pack ( w/Updates ) installed. Weapons
Packs are availible at http://www.combatace.com/
 
B. Notes :
 
1. The Pakistanis began upgrading their F-7P fighters to the F-7MP standard in 1996. It was felt that the
Type 226 Sky Ranger radar/ECCM used by the F-7P was inadaquate given the increasing sophistication of
the Indian Air Force in the 1990s. Principle upgrades were the ability to carry four IRMs and the re-
placing of the Sky Ranger with the Italian Grifo-7 multi-mode radar. ECM was also improved, at the
very least to J-7D standards. Other parts of the upgrade includes GPS, which are not currently modelled
in SFP1/wov. The F-7MP itself is now slowing being replaced by the F-7PG ( based on the far deadlier J-7G
"Flanker Slayer" of the PLAAF ).
 
C. Issues :
 
1. The F-7MP uses the stock SFP1/WOV MiG-21F model. As such, the canopy has not been animated as the
MiG canopy hinges forward while the Chengdu canopy slides to the rear. The MiG-21F model also has
only two wing pylons while the F-7MP has four. The outer wing ordinance stations are adjusted to ride
snug to the wing underside for this reason. F-7MPs also have the BAE (GEC/Marconi Type 926 HUDWAC), no
F-7 cockpit currently exists in game, so a stock A-4F pit is used.
2. You will notice that the fins of any IRM selected on the outer pylons will extend above the wing top. This was
done so that other ordinance ( Bombs, Rocket Pods, Fuel Tanks, etc... ) did not appear to be "floating" below the
wing when viewed using F6. Hopefully this will be corrected in the future, either by a dedicated set of outer wing
pylons modded specifically for this purpose or by a whole new model.
 
D. Credits :
 
1. All glory goes to Gramps for first modding the MiG-21F into it's Chinese cousins. Gramps has graciously allowed
me to carry the ball forward. The Hangarscreen is by Gramps. As is the PAF 2nd Sqdn Grey Camo skin.
 
2. Ghostrider883, geg etendard, and madcaddie for Research into the Warbirds of the Sub-Continant.
 
3. Fubar512 for his excellent MiG RWR sounds and his revised MiG FMs.
 
4. "Geg Gunsight" by geg etendard.
 
5. Any mistakes are solely mine.
 
 
 
Enjoy!

B. F-7A ( F-7 II ) History :
 
This is a mod of Gramps F-7M Airguard/Skybolt into the less sophisticated F-7A Export version. *This* is the fighter
that comes to mind with Western Defence Analysts when you mention Chinese Fighter. Basically a stripped down version
of the MiG-21F. These were the first F-7s offered for sale by China and lack features that China's own line J-7 IIs carried.
Primarily sold to African nations & Albania, these initial offerings could carry either Soviet IRMs or the early Chinese
copies. Principle users included Albania, Tanzania, Iraq ( wired for Matra R-550s ), and possibly the Iranian Islamic
Revolutionary Guards. Simplistic, even by African standards, this "no frills" fighter is what you want if you're more
interested in having a status symbol supersonic air force.
 
----------------------------------------
 
C. Changes In v1.95
 
1. Cockpit changed to A-4B for WOV compatability.
 
2. RWR added. ( Fubar's MiG RWR Sounds included )
 
3. Radar corrected, based on more accurate data.
 
4. MiG Fishbed C engine .wav now included.
 
5. Canopy decals by WhiteKnight included.
 
6. This mod includes the stock Soviet Silver skin modified to use the Soviet Killing Markings Decal Mod for all stock SFP1
MiGs availible at Lee Sullivan's SFP1 site ( http://home.att.net/~r.lee.sullivan/blackhawk-island.html ).
Many thanks to Lee for his permission to use this Mod.
