Strike Fighters 2 Series by Thirdwire

Two of the Leanders with Y-100 machinery,
and five out of the six with Y-136 machinery,
were given the so-called "Batch 2" or "Exocet"
conversion.
This conversion gave them Exocet anti-shipping
missiles in place of the 4.5in gun mount, 2 additional
Seacat systems, and the ability to operate the
Lynx helicopter.
 
Here You have original model by SUICIDAL upgraded
to SF-2NA standards by COCAS (3D works)
and by me (decals and ini edits).
 
I thank also CADETEBRA for his help in testings.
 
 
The Exocet and back seacat mounts, as on original model,
aren't active.
 
Maybe in a further update ....
 
Thank You Marcos & Daniel for this marvel.
 
 
Happy Sailing.

As constructed, the County-class ships were armed with a pair
of twin 4.5in gun mountings.
The second batch of four ships (Antrim, Fife, Glamorgan and Norfolk)
were refitted in the mid 1970s - this saw their 'B' position turrets
removed and replaced by four single MM38 Exocet launcher boxes.
This made the County-class ships the only Royal Navy ships to be
fitted with three separate types of guided missile.
 
Antrim and Glamorgan both served in the Falklands conflict.
 
 
Sir Hinchinbrooke made both these vessels for Falklands mod.
 
I remade all 4 County Class batch 2.
 
As hull has a mapping issue, and can't use decals I was forced
to make 4 separate ships, with new painted numbers.
 
The guns work and the Sea Slug is a deadly weapon (try it).
 
As in original ones the Exocet and Sea cat launchers aren't active.
 
All the glory for Hinch, hoping he could have original files to
upgrade this fantastic model.
 
Enjoy.

This is a Type 82 destroyer, the only vessel of her class to be built
for the Royal Navy.
Originally intended as the first of a class of new large destroyers
to escort the CVA-01 aircraft carriers projected to come into
service in the early 1970s, Bristol turned out to be a unique ship.
The rest of the class were cancelled when the CVA-01 carriers fell
victim to the 1966 Strategic Defence Review.
 
She joined the Royal Navy task force in the South Atlantic in the
1982 Falklands War.
 
In 1987 she replaced the County class destroyer HMS Kent as the
Britannia Royal Naval College training ship.
 
This is a remake of original Hinchinbrooke's model for SF-1.
 
I applied a new number and edited inis.
 
Deadly Sea Dart working.
 
Enjoy.

Baltic region HR tileset v1.0
 
"Additional seasons pack"
 
for SF2/SF2NA March 2012 patch-level
 
April 2nd 2012
 
These are additional seasoned variants of "Baltic region HR tileset" that were not included with the original upload.
 
To install unpack and cop content of Sweden folder to your terrains/Sweden -overwrite when asked.
 
The new seasons are light snow before winter, thaw and early spring.
Modified Sweden.ini to incorporate the new seasons included.
 
 

The Scandinavian Front: Midvintermörker
By The Scandinavian Front Team
 
On Boxing Day 2012, Sweden wakes up to a new world; A Sweden they have never seen before. A powerless and dark Sweden. A day everything changed. Sweden is under attack; Gotland is being invaded by Russian Forces and sabotage patrols wreak havoc in the major cities.
 
Försvarsmakten bets everything on one card; Operation Gudrun. They must repulse the Russians from Gotland or loose the Island forever.
 
 
Installation:
If you are using a mod, or plan to use one, TSF will mess around with settings other mods may be using. As such, creating a seperate mod folder for TSF is a good idea. If you only plan to use TSF, then this step can be bypassed.
 
Go to your installation folder (Usually C:\Program Files\Thirdwire\Strike Fighters 2). Make a copy of Strike Fighters 2.exe / Strike Fighters 2 Europe.exe depending on what you prefer and got installed. Name the Copy Strike Fighters 2 TSF.exe . Start your new .exe once, then close the game.
 
Now go to your Mod Folders. For Windows 7/Vista, this is located in C:\Users\Name\Saved Games\Thirdwire. For Windows XP Users, it is usually in My Documents. Unzip the contents of the 7zip file into the mod folder of your choice. Allow any overwrites.
 
As long as this package is installed last, it can and should be merged with the other The Scandinavian Front packages.
 
Team TSF recommends Starys Tiles for the terrain. It looks alot better. Install it last; when all TSF packages are installed and working.

The Daring class was a class of eleven destroyers built for the Royal Navy (RN) and Royal Australian Navy (RAN).
Constructed after World War II, and entering service during the 1950s, eight ships were constructed for the RN
(HMS Daring (D05), HMS Dainty (D108), HMS Diamond (D35), HMS Defender (D114), HMS Decoy (D106), HMS Diana (D126),
HMS Duchess (D154),HMS Delight (D119)) and three ships for the RAN (HMAS Vampire (D11), HMAS Voyager (D04),
HMAS Vendetta (D08)).
Two of the RN destroyers were subsequently sold to and served in the Peruvian Navy (MGP).
HMS Diana (D126) was BAP Palacios (DM-73) and HMS Decoy (D106) BAP Ferré (DM-74).
They had some modifications as 4 Exocet.
HMS Duchess (D154) was sold to Australia after HMAS Voyager (D04) sunk colliding with HAMS Melbourne.
A further eight ships were planned for the RN but were cancelled before construction commenced, while a fourth
RAN vessel was begun but was cancelled before launch and broken up on the slipway.
 
As userlist function isn't well experimented for ships I made 3 different classes by nation.
 
A later RAN skin with USS style numbers is included but StartDefaultDate entry seems not implemented.
 
The Peruvian ships Exocets missiles could be added later if someone with max files wiil do the job.
 
CREDITS:
 
- Hinchinbrooke for original outstanding model
- Wrench and me for decals and ini edits
 
TO INSTALL:
 
- Put incuded Objects folder in your main mod one
 
SUGGESTION:
 
- use it with HMS Ark Royal or HAMS Melbourne / Sidney to escort them
 
Enjoy.

Avia B-71 plane for Strike Fighters 2 by ThirdWire
 
B-71 was license build Tupolev SB-2 used by czechoslovakia
 
unfortunately it came too late
 
Czechoslovakian Air Force received 60 Russian-built SB with Hispano Suiza 12Ybrs engines in April and May 1938. Another 101 bombers and 60 reconnaissance aircraft were license-built Avia B-71 but only 101 were built.

Cockpit used in this package is build by Stary and it is not 100% correct for this plane
 
but close enough. Thank you Stary

Baltic region HR tileset v1.0
 
for SF2 March 2012 patch-level
 
April 1st 2012
 
optional tiles, ground TOD objects for "The Scandinavian Front MOD" by JonathanRL or stand-alone Sweden map by gillg
 
Hats off to both of you for your efforts guys!
 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------GAMEPLAY NOTE: Due to large amount of ground objects per tile (around 800-1100+ per single tile)
it's highly recommended to use ObjectsFade=TRUE statement in options.ini to increase ingame framerates
 
Also, due to my crappy slow internet connection, I removed from the initial upload two seasons (thaw and light snow) which eventually will be uploaded later
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This mod assumes one has at least installed and tested Sweden map by gillg, more preferably stand-alone TSF mod folder with one of JonathanRL&Team's Scandinavian mods, which includes the Sweden map in them too.
 
Installation:
To install unpack this archive and copy or move the content of Baltic Tileset to your Terrains folder, overwrite when asked.
 
!!!Be warned, due to 1024x1024 textures and large TOD files, the map takes some time to load at first run!!!

This is a full conversion and improvement of the existing Slava class cruiser for SF2:NA/March 2012. Along with the expected effects, weapons, ship names, and collisions modifications, I fixed non-working radars and weapons on the ship and streamlined the data in a more logical, consistent fashion.
 
I also created a new flight deck LOD file and adjusted the relevant data to enable helicopter operations. AS I didn't make the original model, the positioning is based on guesswork and trial&error. Embark from the flight deck at your own risk.
 
 
An alternate anti-ship data file for the Slava is included in the ship's folder. If you want it to launch Sandbox missiles, open the Slava.ini file and change "ObjectDataFile=Slava_DATA.INI" to "ObjectDataFile=Slava_DATA SSM.INI"
 
Enjoy!

This is a full conversion and improvement of the existing Udaloy I and Udaloy II class destroyers for SF2:NA/March 2012. Along with the expected effects, weapons, ship names, and collisions modifications, I fixed non-working radars on the ship and streamlined the data in a more logical, consistent fashion.
 
I also created a new flight deck LOD file and adjusted the relevant data to enable helicopter operations. As I didn't make the original model, the positioning is based on guesswork and trial&error. Embark from the flight deck at your own risk.
 
 
An optional data file for the Udaloy II is included which allows the ship to launch SS-N-22 Sunburn missiles instead of SA-N-9 Gauntlet SAMs. This version still has a measure of air defense in the form of Kashtan CIWS and SA-N-11 missiles. Feel free to use whichever suits your needs. Enjoy!<br class="Apple-interchange-newline">

F-111 Pit repaint for SU-24.
 
This is my attempt to repaint NormanKnight's F-111 pit to represent the Su-24's pit.
 
It is no way accurate as it is what it is, a repaint of an existing pit.
 
There are some issues, some of the translations are probably (definitely) wrong!
Any Russian speakers are welcome to offer alternative suggestions.
 
The artificial horizon and HSI are both of the western type not Russian, this is due to the existing model and my lack of ability to even know if it could be changed.
 
I would like to thank NormanKnight for creating the F-111 pit, Fastcargo for allowing me to use it.
 
Sony Tuckson for allowing me to use a couple of textures from the Mirage Factory's Mig 29 Pit.
 
ErikGen for allowing me to use some of his radar screen textures from his TU-128.
 
The whole Combatace community for generally helping me out in the past.
 
And finally TK for producing this game and allowing it to be moddable.
 
Freeware use only.
 
Hope you enjoy this mod.
 
Mikeymead.
 
Updated version: Changed file from 7zip to winzip as some people were having problems extracting the original.

This bmp replaces the stock TW "Initializing system... Please wait..." splash screen. Just drop it in the folder "Menu" found in the folder where your Strike Fighters 2 is installed. (eg "C:\Program Files\Strike Fighters 2\Menu\")

Fletcher Class Destroyer (1941-46)v1.1 by GrinchWSLG
 
This is representative of a war era Fletcher. To be exact its a late war version. The model is a mix of different ships, specifically the Kidd and the Sullivans. Its finished in Measure 22. A paintkit is included for those who want to finish it in the various other Measures used during the war.
 
V1.1: Updated to SF2:NA/March 2012 patch standards. If you intend to use this with a previous version of the game, either use the FS1 version or expect some weirdness.
 
 
Installation:
 
1. Place the Fletcher folder in User/Saved Games/Thirdwire/StrikerFighters2(whatever version you use)/Objects/GroundObject
 
2. That's it. List seemed kind of dumb with just one item.
 
The default texture is 2048 as its a big object. If this is too large for you or you plan on having many Fletchers on screen, I've included a 1024x1024 texture as well. Its located in the 1024Texture folder.

The Strike Fighters 2 automatically scales the background image of
the menu's to fill your screen at its native/desktop resolution.
This distorts the image if you have a widescreen monitor.
 
This mod therefore includes to variants -- one for regular screens
with a 4:3 aspect ratio (e.g. 1024x768px or 1600x1200)which should
also work on screens with a 5:4 aspect ratio (1280x1024).
 
There is also a widescreen variant for screens with an aspect ratio
of 16:10 or 16:9 (e.g. 1920x1200 or 1920x1080).
 
> The regular aspect mainscreens are located in the folder "Normal"
> The widescreen mainscreens are located in the folder "Widescreen"
 
Each folder contains two subfolders, "A-6" and "F-14".
 
> Decide whether you want an A-6 or a F-14 themed mainscreen and
copy the relevant "mainscreen.bmp" file to the MENU folder in
your Strike Fighters North Atlantic mods folder.
 
> For more information on the mods folder, please see:

UPDATED DESERT TERRAIN V1.3 FOR SF2
 
SF2 has always been my favourite of all the platforms; and after downloading and using the various terrain mods for SF2E and SF2V with hungry anticipation I decided to HEAVILY modify the stock Desert terrain with more than enough of eye candy.
 
 
DESCRIPTION:
 
Without giving too much away, the geographical story is now as follows:
 
*As well as Dhimar and Paran, I've added Sharnak from baffmeister's Desert 2 terrain (my inspiration for this), now a colony which is known as the British Protectorate of Sharnak. RAF squadrons are permanently based there. A couple of other bases, border posts and the like have also been added from Desert 2
*I always thought that D9 and D10 airfields were always a little too close to the border. They've now been moved to the Dhimari 'wastelands' which you'll see on the centre left side of the enclosed planning map
*About ten SAM sites have been added to various locations on Dhimar and the amount of SAM sites across Paran has been hugely increased, the biggest increase being Paran's capital city of Kurzah; which in SAM site and Flak battery terms is now more like Hanoi during the Vietnam War.
*Ships, cranes, oil tanks, warehouses and the like have been added to ports on both sides. Now the capital cities of Muthala and Kurzah, have extensive docklands. Other coastal towns have at least one docking area for shipping.
*(15TH AUG 2010): Inspired by JSF Aggie's SF2 Range terrain, all airfields on both sides have been extensively facelifted and given a new lease of life by re-populating them with huge amounts of groundobjects, both new and old. They now look a lot more like real life airfields instead of that deserted 'Chernobyl International Airport' look in the default airfields. All airfields have also been re-catagorised into two different groups; 'Red' and 'Blue'. For example, a Dhimari DESERT_AIRFIELD4 will now be 'BLUE_AIRFIELD4' and a Parani one will now be 'RED_AIRFIELD4'. New trucks have been added as default groundobjects so they'll have to be downloaded elsewhere on the site (see 'Installation' for details).
*(24TH MARCH 2012): All neccessary INI files have been updated to March 2012 standard. RAF Canopic is now called "Canopic AFB" and is a full-time U.S. Air Force facility. All friendly airfields and some enemy airfields have been enhanced further by adding more groundobjects and in general just tidying up and re-arranging buildings, etc. Offshore oil wells have been situated off the Sharnak and Dhimari coasts. U.S. bomber flights can now attack Paran via the off-map airbase at Diego Garcia. Army bases have been added across Dhimar and in Sharnak for you to defend from Parani bomber attacks.
 
----------------------------------
 
INSTALLATION (PLEASE READ CAREFULLY):
 
Simply unzip the FILE and put the enclosed 'DESERT3' folder into your Terrain folder. NOTE: Please ensure that you drop the enclosed groundobjects into you mod folder, otherwise there'll be no trucks anywhere in Dhimar and no oil rigs in the offshore oilfields!!
 
Important Note: If you don't already have these, you should download them from the SF1 downloads section, otherwise they won't show up:
*SAMs & Vehicles Pack with Desert Skins by Pasko.
*Soviet Transport Pack by Kesselbrut.
*M109A6 Paladin by rebel ryder.

Thank you for downloading the Mid- and Low-vis generic skin pack and the corrective decal pack for the Thirdwire F-14A and F-14A_77.for the Thirdwire Productions F-14A_77. This pack was made to provide low and medium visibility markings for all squadrons on the stock squadron list.
 
These decals would not be possible without TK and Thirdwire for creating SF2:NA and in some cases providing some of the artwork here than has been modified to suit the demands of this pack.
 
Further recognition goes to SuperScale International, Fightertown, Aeromaster, Eagle Strike, FCM, Afterburner, and Custom Aeronautical Miniatures for producing model decals that made good reference material, and to Torsten Anft, Peter Davies, Lou Drendel, Paul Gilchrist, Dave Brown, and many others for their published works and photographs.
 
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
 
Requirements: Strike Fighters 2: North Atlantic.
 
 
Installation:
 
1: drop the Objects folder into your Strike Fighters 2 mod folder.
 
2: Enjoy how you will.
 
 
Known Issues:
 
1: VF-111 is missing the shark mouth.
A: Without the .out file to determine what the meshname for the nose is, I have decided to exclude this decal for the time being. I will add it once the .out is available.
 
 
2: The squadron markings don't look any different from one skin to the next.
A: In many cases, squadron markings didn't change for years. Some squadrons went from high-vis to early low-vis with drastic changes while others never altered their tail art. Some of these squadrons came along after the high-vis period was over and didn't so much as change Air Wings for an entire decade or more. If you see a repeat in squadron decals, that's because that's just how it was.

Thank you for downloading the corrective decal pack for the Thirdwire F-14A and F-14A_77. This pack was made to correct inaccurate or missing decals for the US Navy F-14 squadrons included in Strike Fighters 2: North Atlantic.
 
These decals would not be possible without TK and Thirdwire for creating SF2:NA and in some cases providing some of the artwork here than has been modified to suit the demands of this pack.
 
Further recognition goes to SuperScale International, Fightertown, Aeromaster, Eagle Strike, FCM, Afterburner, and Custom Aeronautical Miniatures for producing model decals that made good reference material, and to Torsten Anft, Peter Davies, Lou Drendel, Paul Gilchrist, Dave Brown, and many others for their published works and photographs.

Requirements: Strike Fighters 2: North Atlantic.
 
 
Installation:
 
1: drop the Objects folder into your Strike Fighters 2 mod folder. Allow to overwrite as neccessary.
 
2: Enjoy how you will.
 
 
Known Issues:
 
1: VF-1 and VF-111 are still missing decals.
A: I know. VF-1 is missing it's fuselage stripe and VF-111 does not have the shark mouth. The VF-1 stripe runs along the forward fuselage and passes through a modex number that is placed noticably lower that the modex in other squadrons. This would have negated the generic qualities of these skins. The VF-111 shark mouth on the nose would require adding a new decal data bloc and experimenting with placement. I may yet add this decal later should modders be given access to the .out files with future patches.
 
1a: Squadron X is still missing decal Y.
A: Probably because they didn't have it during the time period modeled. VF-11 for example didn't have their squadron number on the ventral fins in the early 80's. They had it on the tail, and it's already present in the existing artwork.
 
 
2: A lot of these look like the decals I had already.
A: Yes. That just means that there wasn't any problem with the original decal.

Hi everybody!
 
 
Here it's back! For those who have played the nice sim from Microprose, "Fleet Defender", and want to remember that times (oh, the good old days).
 
This is the song that sounds in the Menu screens of Fleet Defender, and now you can use it as the Main Screen theme (or any other screen) in Strike Fighters 2: North Atlantic.
 
I hope you enjoy it!
 
PD: For those who are new in the world of flight sims sure they will find this MIDI sound "old", but those who are veterans in this (like me) will become nostalgic.
