XFY-1 POGO / Release 2.0
The Convair XFY-1 "Pogo" emerged from the same VTOL-research competition that produced Lockheed's XFV-1 "Salmon.". The aircraft was similar in design to the "Salmon," except that it eschewed its competitor's conventional wing-and-tail configuration in favor of a single--albeit it larger--set of delta-shaped wings. Like the "Salmon," the XFY-1 "Pogo" boasted counter-rotating propellers, but unlike its cousin, it actually clocked numerous vertical lift-offs before the Navy terminated its experiments in 1955.
XFY-1 POGO is intended for use with Thirdwire stable of flight simulations.
This release of the POGO is not entirely coded to work 100% in the game. As is… it MUST be air-started or it will explode upon mission start.
Sorry, the expertise of modeling the flight-model to allow it to land and take–off from its tail is way beyond my pay-grade! (Well... maybe not. I might be able to apply what I learned from the Osprey to make it work...)
INSTALLATION
Unzip the archive and copy and past the POGO folder into your \aircraft directory.
NOTE:
I’ve included the 3D StudioMAX file in the event someone wishes to try their hand at getting the plane to work properly in the game.
All I ask is that you give credit where credit is due… Namely place my name somewhere.
New to release 2.0:
1.) Texture mapped (I'm sorry... I have since forgotten who did me the honor of texturing this bird.
Fly, have fun… appreciate the difficulties in getting a bird like this to fly in a game.

This is my version of EF-4C based on the F-4C_8thTFW_1967 made by Crab_02 and Mike Druzolowski.However some parts from the old EF-4C - like the ER-142 and the avionics .INI- of Column5, Sundowner and Storm are also included.
Be sure that you have your F-4C_8thTFW_1967 and their drop tank and decals mods downloaded and installed properly, because some parts like Ejections seats, drop tanks or decals might not be working.
I don't know when EF-4Cs had been actually retired, I assume sometime in the early '80s, (I saw photos that definetely are post-1975) so I put 1988 just to be sure.And something else...I haven't been able to develop the launchers the way I wanted to.I would like to ask to others to have a look at it.The way it is, it's a dedicated SEAD aircraft with one specific loadout.But that's the way it was in reality, so I decided that it's worth it.The way it is, you have the chance to fly some "hot" Vietnam '72 missions.I guarantee you that you 're going to enjoy it.There is modification of the stock Linebacker II campaign included if you like to test your chances...Default skin is the S.E.A. 67thTFS, but there is an 81thTFS skin if you like to try your luck in '70s Germany.

NAA QF-100D Super Sabre Target Drone
-For SF/SFG/WoV/WoE, and mabye SF2 Series Sims
A modification of the stock F-100D Super Sabre, into the Target Drone as used (up) by the USAF.
This is a semi complete mod, no aircraft lod is included as it uses the stock F-100D lods included in all games excepting WoI. If wanted for use in WoI, you'll need to extract the aircraft lods from any of the other sims, and drop them into the aircraft's main folder.
All other parts are included.
The cockpit has been extensivly modified by using the "moves" pioneered by ArmorDave, and greatly expanded upon by Lexx_Luthor. These moves remove the gunsight, armament panels and other items associated with weapons/weapons controls. The data ini has been edited to add the 08/SF2 advanced AI sections; but ALL weapons have been removed. This aircraft can carry NOTHING other than the drop tanks. Using the AI sections assures it will act in an 'aggressive' manner when confronting Blue Forces. The aircraft has been "nationalized" as Soviet, to doubly assure this. So, don't be surprised with seeing them parked on Red Force airfield ramps. The pilot figure has also been edited out, but the seat remains, which is correct, as these aircraft were STILL human flyable.
The skin supplied herein, whilst highly innaccurate, is based off the original natural metal. In reality, all QF-100s were left painted in their SEA camo, with the addition of hi-viz International Orange markings. I just couldn't quite figure out the exact placements for the Orange on the wings, so didn't bother with the camo skin (even on this skin it's not quite right). I welcome Skinners to create a historically correct one. The decals ini has been edited to only show the aircraft serial numbers; again this is innaccurate, but like the skin itself made for a quick and dirty mod.
It has been tested in an 08 patch level install of WoE. It should work just as well in SF2 'NextGens', but I've not tested that. Some adjustments may be necessary.
As always, unzip this to a temp folder somwhere, and you'll have access to the rest of the readme for it's instructions.
This mod is dedicated to Delta6Actual, who came up with the idea, but who's computer 'went west'.
Good Hunting!!

total prodution in unknown for me but, according russian books MiG-23M manufacture an MiG-23 was increased in the course of a batch production
and has reached a maximum in 1976 (8 airplanes at month), it means ~200-220 'pure' MiG-23M, plus 120-150 MiG-23M early, updated later to Serie 23 standart.

This is my little tribute to BPAO.
You need the MF F-8D to fly it:There are no LODs or skin included therefore you cannot see any wing pylons, nor the hump above the wing is visible.Hopefully someone will create in the future a suitable LOD.
Enjoy!
