North Dakota Tanker
By Julhelm
North Dakota Texaco tanker v1.0 for SF2
This is an attempt at making a better-looking target as compared to the stock cargoship. I think this looks better.
Be advised this uses normalmapping and is thus incompatible with versions of the game earlier than february 2010. Works fine in DX9 however though you'll not see any per-pixel lighting. Won't work in 1st gen games so don't even bother.
Pictars:
Installation:
Simply extract the contents of the package into your ground objects folder. It'll overwrite your stock cargoship so that, you know, it'll actually show up in missions.
Known Issues:
Destroyed model absolutely refuses to show up ingame. However I've included the lod file so any enterprising souls can give it a go.
Credits:
Model & textures by Nils 'Julhelm' Dücker
Disclaimer:
You MAY NOT use any part of this package in any payware package or otherwise take credit for it without first consulting me.
Any problems post on the combatace boards or mail to NilsD <at> bredband <dot> net

Semi-Transparent Map Icons for SF2 Series
By HomeFries
Compatible with Strike Fighters 2 Series of games.
One thing that has bugged me about the Strike Fighters series is the object icons are both large and opaque. Compound this with the fact that they cannot be filtered, and it makes for difficult mission planning over areas of dense activity. This mod reduces the icon size by 25% and makes the icons semi-transparent, which allows you to easily see the enemy and friendly forces while still seeing the map underneath the forces. This is especially useful for runway strikes, where you will want to know the orientation of the runway prior to setting up your Initial Point.
Specifically, his mod converts the BMP object icons to TGA and adds an alpha channel that ranges from 50% to 75% opacity. Likewise, this mod updates the PLANNINGMAPSCREEN.INI in order to call the new TGA files as well as reduce the Object Icon Size from 32 pixels to 24 pixels.
Easy Installation (if you are not running any other menu mod)
Copy the included Menu folder into your SF2 mods folder
Manual Installation (if you have an existing menu mod)
As long as your menu mod doesn't change the PLANNINGMAPSCREEN.INI file, you should just be able to copy these files to your SF2 Mods folder. If you do use a custom PLANNINGMAPSCREEN.INI, then in addition to copying the TGA files to your [sF2 Mods]\Menu folder, you will need to make the following changes to PLANNINGMAPSCREEN.INI:
[MapData] <...> FriendlyAircraftIcon=FriendlyAircraftIcon.tga <-------change these from BMP to TGA FriendlyGroundForceIcon=FriendlyGroundForceIcon.tga FriendlyNavalUnitIcon=FriendlyNavalUnitIcon.tga FriendlyRadarIcon=FriendlyRadarIcon.tga EnemyAircraftIcon=EnemyAircraftIcon.tga EnemyGroundForceIcon=EnemyGroundForceIcon.tga EnemyNavalUnitIcon=EnemyNavalUnitIcon.tga EnemyRadarIcon=EnemyRadarIcon.tga <...> ObjectIconSize=24 <---- change this from 32 <...>
You can resize the ObjectIconSize to whatever you like, but the included HighlightIcon.tga is set for a 24 pixel Object Icon. If you wish to keep the ObjectIconSize at 32, you can do so; just remove the HighlightIcon.tga from your [sF2 Mods]\Menu folder and the default icon from the CAT file will be used. If you wish to use any other size icon, you will need to make changes to HighlightIcon.tga yourself. If you know of a way to change this in the INI file, please let me know so that I can put it in my next update.
Future Compatibility Issues
In order to ensure compatibility with future official SF2 patches, you may need to extract PLANNINGMAPSCREEN.INI from the MenuData.CAT file and compare the files to ensure compatibility. You can quickly find my changes in the sections bracketed by //.
For support, please post in the corresponding File Announcement thread at CombatAce.

IDF TA-4H Skyhawk by pappychksix/fracture
By Wrench
IDF TA-4H Skyhawk by Fracture/Pappychksix 8/7/2001
=For SF2, Full-4 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred)
** May (ok, probably) Requires SF2:V -hence the Full-4 Merged requirement-, as the A-4E_67 cockpit and avionics are referenced for the Mod. If you don't have these
minimum requirements, you shouldn't download this, as you may not be able to use it withOUT heavy editing **
This is a overhaul of Fracture/pappychksix' IDF TA-4H Skyhawk trainer/attack aircraft. All the inis have been brought up to the latest (as of July, 2011) standard. Some modifications to the avionics are more for 'playability', as research showed these most likely did not have an RWR (but knowing the Israelies....). The
standard NAV/Attack radar, yes. Loadouts use all common or garden variety stock weapons. It is set to fly all mission profiles as any other standard Scooter..
New damage textures (dds) and a new SF2-style hangar screen are included.
Please note, that like the TA-4J recently released, the very same shadow issues =WILL= be present, as it uses the TA-4J's lod. You'll just have to live with that (see Notes below)
As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them .... Fracture's original readme is also included.
Happy Landings!

[Fictional] Republic Thunderchief S.1 (RAF & RAAF bonus skin)
By Spinners
Republic Thunderchief S.1 for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2
This is a very simple mod of the stock Third Wire F-105D to create a fictional Thunderchief in service with the Royal Air Force in the 1964 to 1973 timeline. In addition, a bonus RAAF 'anti-flash' white skin is included together with an RAF SEAC skin.
BACKSTORY
At the onset of the fatigue problems suffered by the Vickers Valiant in 1964 it wasn't only the RAF that urgently looked for a quick replacement. With the October 1962 Cuban Missile crisis relatively fresh in their minds, the American administration led by LBJ realised that a quick infusion of European striking power was required and authorised the transfer of a batch of 39 F-105D-25's from US stocks to the RAF and these arrived in December 1964 under "Operation Hastings" (later discovered to be an American jibe at the incoming British Prime Minister Harold Wilson).
Entering service with No.207 squadron at RAF Marham in February 1965 the Thunderchief S.1 soon also re-equipped No.49 and No.148 squadrons (also based at RAF Marham) and were initially armed with American Mk28 (B-61) free-fall tactical nuclear bombs before switching to the UK WE.177B in late 1966. Due to their relative short range the Thunderchief S.1's were regularly deployed to RAF Germany until the Victor K.1 tanker force had built up in sufficient numbers. In RAF service the Thunderchief suffered from a high attrition rate and the type was never popular with pilots and began to be supplanted in RAF service by Blackburn Buccaneer S.2's in 1968 with the remaining Thunderchiefs being transferred to RAF South East Asia Command before being retired in 1973.
INSTRUCTIONS
1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the ThunderchiefS1 folder into your Aircraft folder.
2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the ThunderchiefS1 folder into your main Decals folder.
CREDITS
Thanks to Third Wire for the continuous improvement of a great little game/sim.
Thanks to Daddyairplanes for the 'Euro 1' skin and also to Centurion for the tweaks to this skin and ludo.m54 for the F-105D templates.
And thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.
Regards
Spinners

MiG-29 Fulcrum "Baaz" Indian Republic Day Scheme Skin
MiG-29 Fulcrum "Baaz" Indian Republic Day Scheme Skin
Fictional Indian Flag Skin for Mirage Factory MiG-29A_In model. This scheme was painted on four IAF SU-30K/MKs for India's Republic Day flypast.
It is recommended to update/replace the MiG-29A_In( that came with the Indo-Pak mod) with the one by SF2 updated Mirage Factory/dast24 (link:http://combatace.com/files/file/12489-the-mirage-factory-mig-29-fulcrum-mod)
This skin pack would not have been possible without Sundowner's great MiG-29 templates. So credit for these skins got to Sundowner as well.
Installation
Just drop the contents of the file(Objects folder) to C:\Users\<XXX>\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 and let it overwrite existing files.
Credits
The Mirage Factory : for the excellent MiG-29A_In model
Sundowner : for the superb MiG-29 templates
dast24 : for updated MiG-29s
Indo-Pak mod team: for the excellent Indo-Pak mod.

[Fictional] Hawker Hunter FGA.9A RAF 'Desert Pink'
By Spinners
Hawker Hunter FGA.9A for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2
This is a very simple mod of the stock Third Wire Hawker Hunter FGA.9 to give a fictional Hawker Hunter FGA.9A fighter-bomber aircraft as it might have appeared in service with the Royal Air Force during the 1960's to early 1970's period with RAF Middle East Command and 'what if' markings are included for;
No.8 Squadron
No.20 Squadron
No.43 Squadron
In reality, all three squadrons have an association with operating the FGA.9 in the Middle East area during the 1960's but I've banged them together as a three-squadron wing and clad them in this 'Desert Pink' scheme initially adopted in 1961 for the Kuwait Crisis and then kept for their extended operations in Aden and Dhimar.
INSTRUCTIONS
1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the HunterFGA9A folder into your Aircraft folder.
2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the HunterFGA9A folder into your main Decals folder.
That's it!
CREDITS
As always, thanks to Third Wire for a great little game/sim.
Special thanks to ndicki for his superb Hunter templates used by me to create this 'Desert Pink' scheme.
And, finally, thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.

ODS Mirage F1 (and any Super Etendard too!) high resolution cockpit repaint
By Stary
This is a high resolution repaint of old (2005) cockpit of Super Etendard by Foxmonter, as used in various types of Mirage F1 in Operation Desert Storm.
Due to the way this cockpit mesh is mapped I had to make one big 4096x4096 file for most of the main parts. Also other parts are repainted or adjusted.
There are some innacuracies and omissions so please do not count the rivets!
After all it's SE pit standing-in for Mirage F1 and to be honest je ne parle pas français...

[Fictional] Mikoyan-Gurevich-Hawker Falchion F.Mk1 for SF2
By Spinners
Mikoyan-Gurevich-Hawker Falchion F.Mk1 for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2
This is a very simple mod of the stock Third Wire MiG-15 to create a fictional licence-built MiG-15 in service with the British Peoples' Republic Air Force as the Falchion F.Mk1. I'm delighted to use Stary's new MiG-15 cockpit in this little bit of fluff and nonsense. Please note that this mod requires you to have Expansion Packs 1 and 2 as the MiG-15 was 'bonus content' if you had both but you could quickly juggle things around to use the MiG-15bis if you've only got Expansion Pack 1.
INSTRUCTIONS
1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the Falchion folder into your Aircraft folder.
2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the Falchion folder into your main Decals folder.
CREDITS
Thanks to Third Wire for the continuous improvement of a great little game/sim.
And thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.

Kirov class battlecruiser (1988 and 1998)
This package contains the third and fourth ships of the Kirov class battlecruisers: Admiral Nakhimov (ex-Kalinin) in commission since 1988, and Pyotr Velikiy (ex-Yury Andropov), in commission since 1998. The Kirov class are currently the world's only nuclear powered surface combatants and the most heavily armed warships in service today.
With layered air defense systems, four different SAM types, and six twin gatling CIWS, these vessels are fearsome opponents. Be warned that once installed, these vessels will begin appearing in Soviet battlegroups and significantly increase the challenge level. Note that the Shipwreck anti-ship missiles are not yet functional due to game engine limitations.
Each ship has two different hull numbers and decal sets representing their service before and after the fall of the Soviet Union, including authentic Russian language name stencils. As a bonus, additional materials are included to create a modern "friendly" Russian military if you have not done so already.
These ships are also equipped with a functional helicopter deck, but no fake arresting wires are included, so fly with care.
If you have any questions, comments, concerns, or constructive criticisms regarding this model, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you!
