    1. SF2 HC-130B Hercules USCG (3W/TMF)                   10/25/2025
      -For SF2 =ONLY= (Any & All, Full 4/5 Merged Recommended)
      Another "Found In The Archives" Salvage Job
      This is a mod using the skins from a 1stGen (SFP1) mod by The Mirage Factory from 2006. While doing some clean up on my archives, I stumbled across this. Originally, it was for an EC-130V with the fuselage mounted radar rotodome, making use of the stock 3W C-130A lods. As it was painted in US Coast Guard colors, it was a simple matter to NOT add the rotodome, and just convert to a CG SAR and Patrol Bird. Please note, the Real Life B model has 4 bladed props, whilst the 3W A model has only 3 bladed props. Simply, because that was all that was available in 2006. 
      All textures have been converted to jpg format. All markings are decals, excepting standard USCG painted on colors. This aircraft has 12 100% historically accurate serial numbers (BuNums), all matched to their Modex numbers. As we have no "US Coast Guard" as a stock nation in game, I've assigned it "USN" (sorry Coasties!).
      Even though this is more designed for "Eye Candy", you get a new Hangar Screen and engine, flap and landing gear sounds. A cockpit is included, by Dels from his Early Model Herks (tm). Other adjustments have been made, see "Notes" for Change List. The cargo bay door opens with the bomb bay keystroke. 
      On the Aircraft selection Dropdown on the Main Screen, you'll see:
      HC-130B Hercules (3W/TMF)
      This will, of course, keep it differentiated from any other USCG Hercs that might be flying around.
      As is always recommended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. PLEASE read them, before installing!!! Please read the Notes section for other useless information, and (hopefully) full credits. All original readme's are included.
      Please also take note of changes in the Standard Disclaimer in the "Legal BS" section at the bottom.
      Happy Landings!

    2. THIS IS NOT UNDER THE COMBATACE FREEWARE LICENSE ACCORD
       
      YOU MAY
       
      - Have fun with this mod
      - Use it as you see fit once you download it, even modify it as you see fit
      - Create your own textures as you see fit and upload them under your name
       
      IF you wish to send me any modified core files (I don't need to review skins as that doesn't affect any core files) please PM me the modified files and I will check them out. There is no exception to this policy given my attitude towards staying out of jail. I will check them out and yay or nay the decision, but if I can edit any files in order to not go to jail, I will inform you and that will be it. I understand you may have information of a sensitive nature that you may have access to and frankly it does not belong in any files of this download. If that bothers you then please don't send me sensitive information, I think I've made it clear that I'm not going to jail in order to appease to players.

    3. SF2 F-5A(G) Norway 'Freedom Fighter' by Suhsjake/The Mirage Factory                   10/21/2025
      -For SF2 =ONLY= (Any & All, Full 4/5 Merged Recommended)
      This is a remod of Suhsjake's mod of The Mirage Factory's F-5A(G) "Freedom Fighter" as used by the Royal Norwegian Air Force for use in SF2. I've taken the liberty of making some significant changes, similar to seen in the F-5A (TMF) remod recently released. Unlike the original mod, this is a "Nationalized", single user, non-exported version. Although, in Real Life (tm) some were passed on to other NATO users.
      This mod contains 4 skins representing 2 RoNAF squadrons in differing time periods. Each skin uses the "StartDefaultDate" switch; markings change accordingly.
      336 Sqdn NMF <1966 (code PX)
      332 Sqdn NMF <1972 (code AH)
      332 Sqdn NMF <1975
      336 Sqdn Gray <1986
      All skins remain in their original bmp format, at 1024x1024. All markings are decals. All aircraft have 24 historically accurate serial numbers, (almost) all matched to 'plane in squadron' letters where possible. Within the Decals folder, is a subfolder with various PSDs I used for the squadron and aircraft marking letters, plus a bunch of research papers on RoNAF F-5s (some are in Norwegian, btw)
      A new pilot figure and ejection seat are included. All sounds and weapons use Stock In-Game (tm) 3rd Wire items. This simplifies matter greatly. The TMF original wingtip and center line drop tanks are included, in their original colorations. The original TMF effects are included, and updated to SF2 standard. The canopy operates with the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0 (zero).
      On the Aircraft selection Dropdown on the Main Screen, you'll see:
      F-5A(G) Freedom Fighter (RoNAF)TMF
      This will, of course, keep it differentiated from any other Norwegian F-5s that may exist.
      As is always recommended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. PLEASE read them, before installing!!! Please read the Notes section for other useless information, and (hopefully) full credits. All original read mes are included.
      Please also take note of changes in the Standard Disclaimer in the "Legal BS" section at the bottom.
      Happy Landings!

    4. Royal Danish Air Force Starfighters. 
      This mod is not to compete with any previous packs. It is just my different approach. So before removing/overwriting some older stuff, test this one - as you may not like it. 
      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.
      A fake pilot is required to run this mod. Also, the Thirdwire F-104 cockpit is required from the original game. 
      Fuel tanks- Tanks are just ini files. The mod uses tanks that are part of an aircraft lod.
      Before uploading, I was hoping I could finish the cockpit. But sometimes the universe has different plans...so you will have to wait for the proper cockpit, probably 2 more weeks. And for TF too.
      In the game, under a prefix.KDF. * You will find  F-104G / CF-104  that served in the Royal Danish Air Force.
      * Kongelige Danske Flyvevåbnet
      First, I planned to upload both CF-104 and F-104G. But I think it will be quite appropriate and okay to make them as one F-104G. After acquiring the Canadian CF-104, airframes were castrated into the F-104G standard. Unlike other operators of the CF-104, these airframes had only a few differences compared to the Lockheed F-104G. With only visible counterweights on wing pylons, which probably no one would notice. 
      So, in the end, I combined serial numbers/decals from both into one Danish F-104G.
      But, if someone wants, I can upload it later, a specific Danish CF-104.  

      All skins are in 4096x4096 format. You can easily resize as needed.  
      Decals represent historically correct serial numbers assigned to aircraft during their service in the Danish Air Force, for a specific year, squadron, etc.
       
      Credits.
      The original model - Bobrock, Soulfreak, and Me.
      Yours truly  -  mambo jumbo like skins, decals, some effects, research...
      I have no idea who made the pilot model; it is an old model used almost everywhere, I just repainted the skin.
      cabin light effects - guuruu
      All weapons by Ravenclaw, you should have them by now, but I have included what is listed in loadout.ini.
       
      TDU-11 - do not take it seriously, it is made as ASM - you can fire it and chase, and try to pick it with sidewinder.
      Travel pod- absolutely do not take it seriously - you are not going anywhere...

    8. Mirage F1C-200 (1994-2003)
      This add-on shows the last Mirage F-1C for the French Armée de l'Air. The name F-1C200 comes from the serial numbers beginning from 200. Most of the F1C-200 were converted in F1CT but 12 were not and 11 stayed operational until the very end of service in 2002-2003, those in this mod.
      F1C-200_94 specifics:
      Same as F1C-200 plus:
      Corail gondolas C/F dispensers (P0 station)  double wingtips position lights v4.0    22/Aug/2025
      Other F1 cockpit updates:
      Radar scope Cyrano IVM HUD CSF196 Barax/Phimat control panel Corail control panel (with indication of remaining chaffs and flares - for gameplay - not as real  F1) Note: Due to a known SF2 bug, external chaffs and flares dispensers cannot be used by AI aircraft. A workaround is to build internal "fake" C/F dispensers, and "empty" external dispensers. The advantage is that AI aircraft have then decoys. The disandvantage is that even if C/F are not loaded by the player, aircraft still have chaffs and flares dispensed from non-existing dispensers ! We have preferred the use of the workaround for the gameplay.
      Covered units :
      Escadron de Chasse 3/33 Lorraine.
      Escadron de Chasse 4/33 Vexin.
       
      This addon is and will in all cases remain freeware.
      Released under CombatAce Fair-Use terms.
      Enjoy
      The Mirage F1 Team
