This project started with a little mod here and there to make the Vipers more modern. FastCargo started the PM thread on 28 Jul 2011 and here we are 10 months later we have this.
This mod is dedicated to Oli (bpao) he started us on this journey and I hope, I really hope, we lived up to his expectations.

Swiss Mirage III Pack
 
Install - Need Update July 2012, DLC Mirage IIIO
 
In 1961, Switzerland bought a single Mirage IIIC from France. This Mirage IIIC was used as development aircraft. The Swiss Mirages were built in Switzerland by F+W Emmen (today RUAG ) (the federal government aircraft factory in Emmen) as the Mirage IIIS. Australia too, bought, one French-made in preparation for licensed production. Cost overruns during the Swiss production led to the so-called "Mirage affair". In all, 36 Mirage IIIS interceptors were built with strengthened wings, airframe, and undercarriage. The Swiss Air Force required performance comparable to those of carrier based planes; the airframes were reinforced so the aircraft could be moved by lifting them over other aircraft with a crane, as in the Aircraft cavern in the mountains that Swiss Air Force uses as bunkers, offer very little space to maneuver parked aircraft. Also, the strengthened frames allowed for JATO assisted takeoffs. The main differences to the standard Mirage III were as follows:
New wiring of avionics with U.S. electronics
Changed cockpit design with gray instead of black panels
New U.S. radar, TARAN-18 from Hughes
Use of HM-55S "Falcon" (Swiss designation of the from SAAB in Licence built Robot 27 (Rb27) which is similar to the Hughes AIM-26 "Falcon")
Radar warning receiver (RWR) on both wingtips and on the back of the rudder
Strengthened structure for use of JATO-Rockets
Retractable nosecone and lengthened nosewhlle leg for storing in underground air base
Four lifting points for moving aircraft in underground caverns with a crane
Bay at the fin with a SEPR rocket engine to double the velocity for short time or climb to 20 000 m (60 000 ft)
US TRACOR AN/ALE-40 chaff/flare dispenser at the back under the end of the engine (fitted with the upgrade 1988)
Canards designed and produced by RUAG Aerospace(fitted with the upgrade 1988)
New Martin-Baker ejection-seat (fitted with the upgrade 1988)
The Swiss Mirages are equipped with RWS, chaff & flare dispensers. Avionics differed as well, with the most prominent difference being that the Thomson-CSF Cyrano II radar was replaced by Hughes TARAN-18 system, giving the Mirage IIIS compatibility with the Hughes AIM-4 Falcon AAM. Also the Mirage IIIS had the wiring to carry a Swiss-built nuclear bomb or French nuclear bomb. The Swiss nuclear bomb was stopped in the preproduction stage and Switzerland did not purchase the French-made bomb. The Mirage IIIS had an integral fuel tank under the aft belly; this fuel tank could be removed and replaced with an adapter of the same shape. This adapter housed a SEPR rocket engine with its liquid fuel tanks. With the SEPR rocket, the Mirage IIIS easily reached altitudes of 20,000 m. The rocket fuel was very hazardous and highly toxic, so the SEPR rocket was not used very often. The Mirage IIIRS could also carry a photo-reconnaissance centerline pod and an integral fuel tank under the aft belly; this carried a smaller fuel load but allowed a back looking film camera to be added. In the early 1990s, the 30 surviving Swiss Mirage IIIS interceptors were put through an upgrade program, which included fitting them with fixed canards and updated avionics. The Mirage IIIS were phased out of service in 1999. The remaining Mirage IIIRS, BS and DS were taken out of

This is simple remod, overhaul of Florian's Sea King model.
Model itself is Florian work and all hail to him for his work.
 
---------------------------------------------
The names of all contributors, modders, suppliers, etc =MUST= be listed in any new readmes.
This package and any part of it may NOT in any way, shape or form be used in any payware additions.
Any persons wishing to make further modfications, MUST remember to put everyone's name in it.
 
This mod represents SH-3D and some versions of SH-3A used by US Navy for CSAR operations.
 
Althoug Florian's SH-3 represents something between A-D Generaly it fits here but are not hundred% correct.
There were also two D versions with small differences...but this is different story.
 
This is version 2 uploadaed with smaler size of skins.
You can also download only skins in seperate rar file.
 
Model itself is untouched by me. Only in A version ive removed few bits by ini work.
Using Florian's skins ive made templates and new skins.
 
In this pack SH-3D skins are:
 
HS-4 'Black Knights' USS Ticonderoga 1971
HS-5 'Night Dippers' USS Wasp 1970
HS-11 'Dragonslayers' USS John F. Kennedy 1976
 
SH-3A is made for Wings over Vietnam mod.
It represents only one unit:
HS-6 'Indians' USS Kearsarge 1966-1968 at Yankee Station.
Plus additional one skin with shortly used camo paint.
 
All decals are made by me and are based on available documents and photos. So lets say - historicaly correct.
 
This helo got new ini work. So if you have old Florian SeaKing - do a backup. Becasue this is new and you might not like it.
new aircraft data ini with new flight model, and few differences
animation keys reassigned.
 
Sonar and MAD operations are same as before, ANIMATION KEYS 3,4,5
Right side rear slide doors are opened as bomb_bay
left side slide door as ANIMATION KEY 1
 
Rotor brake ANIMATION KEY 7
Folding rotor ANIMATION KEY 8
 
Ive put some speed limits for animations up to 30 kts for doors,and rotor animation so you can fold onboard vessel.
 
Flying is done same way as in my helos. Vector thrust controll, etc.. it is pretty simple.
 
Last thing:
There is new cockpit. As replacement ive done some simple generic cockpit for SH-3. Since there is lot of versions of SeaKing lot of pits, this is generic and simple build, that should fit here.
Consider it as beta, few things are not working there.

Thanks.

This pack includes aicrafts used by Iranian Air Force.
Mostly eye candy aircrafts, available on CA. (with one exeption)
P-3F Orion - Used by Air Force to support Iranian Navy. New skin based on my template, and correct serial number decals. Im using here Florian's pit for C-160 - for me it fits wel here.
 
Boeing KC-707 - simple mod by fakepilot adding (not operational) refueling pods on wing tips. Decals with correct serial numbers.
 
C-130E Hercules used by Iranian Air Foce transport squadrons. Serial numbers are correct, but not necesarly proper for units. Althoug those 3 units were probably operating E Hercules in 1979.
 
Cessna 337 - only skin, for now as there is no better model. YAP's model is ok but uvwraping is screwd.
So I chose CA model by V2K - also not perfect but as temporary eye candy must fit here.
 
Pilatus PC-6 from "other site" you need all files from A-Team site to run this mod. This mod provides only skin for IRIAF and ini files that should be used with this mod. (do backup here)
Also fake pilot "proper" exhaust for Turbo PC-6 - old exhasut removed by data.ini file.
 
T-33 skin pack with correct serial numbers.
 
So as I said it is eye candy aircraft pack for Iran-Iraq war era.
 
All serial numbers in this pack are historicaly correct and are based on available documents, photos.

CVN Ulyanovsk



by



Julhelm


 
This model represents the Soviet Project 1143.7 CVN Ulyanovsk, as it probably would have appeared had the project had been carried through to completion.
 
I won't go into the actual history of the ship, as it's just as easy for anyone so inclined to perform an online search and dig up all the relevant details on the vessel.
 
This model was designed and optimized for SF2:NA, and that means Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8. At the very least it requires the latest SF2 series patch for its systems and DX10 visual effects to work properly.
To install this package, simply place the folders located inside the .RAR archive into the mod folder of whichever SF2 title you desire the ship to appear in.
 
Additional work may be required on your part to ensure that the ship's TEWS RWR symbol (SkyWatch) is added to the RWR list of any aircraft so equipped. Instructions on how to do this, can be found on the SF2 knowledge base, courtesy of EricJ:
http://combatace.com/topic/44441-making-a-custom-tga-for-tews-radar-warning-recievers/
 
Sound effects will also require editing of the soundlist.ini file in order to work.
 
I’ve included a modified soundlist.ini file, for those who do not have it extracted.
 
Warning: Be careful if you already have an existing custom soundlist.ini file, as it will be overwritten. In that case, simply add the following lines (shown below), taking care to follow the existing numbering sequence (the soundlist.ini will reside in your flight folder). Use the supplied soundlist.ini as a guide.

Known issues:
 
1) The supplied SA-N-11 Kortik SAMs are not precisely scaled, so they were placed in the center of each Kashtan's missile tube cluster. They also do not have a defined booster stage in their model file, so don't expect booster separation. Also, the actual SA-N-11 is guided by an optical tracking system in real life. Again, this is not supported by the series, so they were given high counter-measure rejection and probability of intercept values, to compensate.
 
2) As of the present date (October 7 2012) Third Wire does not support a PROPER VLS system on a vessel that's also equipped with mutiple SAM types, on slewable mounts. To put it simply, one can have a working VLS system and nothing else, or one can have working Kashtans. I chose the latter option, though the nodes and missiles are supplied if this situation were to change in the future.
 
3) Third Wire has not made provisions for a working "ski-jump", so virtual bow catapults are used instead, and aircraft thus launched will appear to fly through the bow ramp.
