    9. Mirage 2000-5 BETA for SF2

      Mirage 2000-5 BETA For SF2
       
      This is a Mod of Erwin_hans Taiwanese Mirage 2000-5.
       
      Credits:
      --------------------------------------------------
      3D Model by aleks
       
      Original Flight Model by IAFmars and YEYEYE and Erwin_hans
       
      French Skin by ADM17
       
      Grecia, Siguena and Tigermeet Skins by TORNO
       
      JAS-39C Gripen Cockpit by Gux
       
      Avionics by Moonjumper and Jat
       
      Martin Baker Mk10 Ejection Seat by AleDucat
       
      SF2 updates, FM, Hangar and Loading Screens by NeverEnough
       
      Installation:
      --------------------------------------------------
      Simply extract the contents of the Mirage 2000-5 folder into your Mods\StrikeFighters2 folder.
       
      Shift 1 will open and close the canopy.
       
       
      This model uses the Gux's JAS-39C Gripen cockpit and avionics. The cross bar in the Gripen canopy has beem removed to provide a fully transparent canopy. Every effort has been made remove as much of the Beta aspect as possible, but some small issues still remain. The weapon positions on the pylons have been adjusted, the weapon stations have been tweaked to avoid model overlaps, and the weapon loadout has been changed to more closely reflect French and Greek Mirage 2000-E weapons capabilities.
      The lighting positions and wheel rolling radius have been corrected. The leading edge slats are functional, and the flight model has been tweaked pretty extensively. A new Hangar Screen, Loading Screen and Loadout image are included.
       
      TORNO's skins make this a very sexy beast. The FM is pretty sporty, and the plane flies and fights nicely. The real Mirage 2000-5 is a very competent multi-purpose fighter bomber, and this model does a pretty good job reflecting that heritage.
      Take a look at the Mirage 2000 History.txt file for more detail on the Mirage 2000.
       
      Enjoy, and good flying.

      These from Wiki:
       
      The Xian JH-7 (Jian Hong-7; NATO reporting name Flounder[1]), also known as the FBC-1 (Fighter/Bomber China-1) Flying Leopard, is a two-seater (tandem), twin-engine fighter-bomber in service with the People's Liberation Army Naval Air Force (PLANAF), and the People's Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF). The main contractors are Xian Aircraft Industry Corporation (XAC) and the 603nd Aircraft Design Institute,now named First Aircraft Institute of AVIC-1. The first batch of JH-7 aircraft were delivered to the PLANAF in the mid-1990s for evaluation, and the improved JH-7A variant entered service in 2004.

      2.Simply extract the contents of the JH-7A folder into your Mods\StrikeFighters2 folder.
       
      3.Then............enjoy it
       
      This is a very nice model of a modern Chinese attack aircraft. The original BETA release has been tuned to fix a few small issues. The Weapon Station attachment positions have been adjusted, the landing gear rolling radius has been tweaked, the engine fans rotate correctly, and the drag parachute works. This bird is nice to look at and brutally efficient at attack and shipping strikes. For any air-to-air work, the PL-8 heaters get the job done!
       
      Shift 0 will open and close the canopy, and the drag parachute will deploy when the airbrakes are activated on the runway.
       
      ******** EVERYONE CAN USE THESE MODELS for all Third Wire projects, as you want.************************

    22. J32B Lansen Interceptor For SF2

      J32B Lansen Interceptor For SF2
       
      BETA based on A32A model by Timmy.
       
      Good A32/J32 resources here...
       
      Canit, deep stuff on all SAABs ~> http://www.canit.se/%7Egriffon/aviation/
      Vectorsite SAABs ~> http://www.vectorsite.net/avsaab.html
       
      --------
       
      A32A 3D model by Timmy.
      Cammo Skin and Metal silver Skins by Timmy.
      Dark Green Skin & national decals by Knug.
      FM work by Lexx.
      Euro001 Pilot by Diego.
      Martin Baker Mk GW5 Ejection Seat by Ravenclaw_007.
      Swedish RB Missile Set by Ravenclaw_007.
      SF2 updates by NeverEnough.
       
      Uses the Thirdwire SF2 F-105D cockpit and avionics. Every effort has been made remove as much of the Beta aspect as possible. The weapon positions on the pylons have been adjusted, the weapon stations have been tweaked to avoid model overlaps, and the weapon loadout has been tested to insure every plane in the flight is loaded for bear.
      The lighting positions and wheel rolling radius have been corrected. FlapSettingForLanding and FlapSettingForTakeOff was added to the FlightControl section of the Data.ini, which helps the AI absolutely grease their take offs and landings!
      TIMMY made a very nice model and Lexx assembled a data.ini which flys stable and sporty. The plane looks good, and fights just as well. There is no need to fear the MiG-17F.
      TIMMY SAYS: Model and Template are available for those wanting to work with them.
       
      Installation:
      Simply extract the contents of the J-32B Lansen folder into your Mods\StrikeFighters2 folder.
       
      Default Loadout:
      4 30mm Aden Cannons
      4 Rb24 Swedish Sidewinders
      Basic setup for 12 Swedish 18cm-m49 air-ground rockets but this is just an example use of Timmy's great pylons. Timmy made this as an A32 so we
      have 12 pylons here if they are used (invisible if not).
      Conformal nonjettisonable belly tank.
       
      Avionics is SF2 F-105D but basic radar performance (not display) tweaked towards J32B levels.
       
      RWR is audio only.

    23. Ed Rasimus's "Bat Bird" for SF2V

      Bat Bird Texture pack
       
      by: Fubar512
       
       
      This texture-set represents Ed Rasimus's F-105D, "The Bat Bird", as it would have appeared in its heyday.
       
      The USAF had not fully implemented the two-letter tail code in those days, so birds from the 421st TFS flew with their vertical stabs unadorned, save for an abbreviated code. And that code consisted of the last digit of the fiscal year in which a particular bird was ordered, followed by its 4-digit serial number.
       
      "Nose Art" was not officially authorized, so the Bat Bird insignia was present for only two weeks during Ed Rasimus's tour with the 421st.
       
      I've also taken the liberty of tweaking a few values in the F-105D-66 flight dynamics file, including its power plant's thrust values and altitude tables. The former was corrected to the proper values for a J75-P-19W mill, the latter simply an expanded table to more accurately reflect performance at altitude.
       
      Engine, gear, and flap sounds have also been provided.
       
      Installation:
       
      Simply extract the contents of the zip archive into your SF2V mod folder. It will overwrite only one file (the F-105D_66.ini file), and that will no effect it in any other way, other than changing the displayed model's name to it's correct one, and adding the necessary lines of code for the new texture-set.
       
      It will also create sounds folder, if you did not have one, already.
       
      If you're unsure of the location of your mod folders (it's location depends on which flavor of Windows you're running), simply go to the SF2 knowledge base at www.combatace.com, where you'll find all the help you need, and then some : )
       
      Enjoy....
