      Background****************************************
       
      From ACIG.org: "Namely, one of the RLAF T-28 pilots at the time – and one described by the US
      instructors as the “most aggressive” of all – was Lt. Chert Saibory, a former RTAF-pilot, who
      defected to Laos in 1960. Chert initially offered his services to Kong Le, but was turned down.
      Remaining in Vientianne, Chert then joined the RLAF - once Gen. Phoumi returned to power - and
      flew many combat sorties but was never promoted in rank. For unclear reasons, in September 1963
      Chert decided to defect once more and during an airshow that was to be staged over Savannakhet
      he flew his T-28 away from the rest of formation – to North Vietnam. Instead of commissioning
      him in their air force the North Vietnamese imprisoned Chert: several months later his T-28 was
      refurbished and – serialled “963”, in commemoration of the date when it was acquired – became
      the first fighter aircraft of the Vietnam People’s Air Force (VPAF)."

      Pilots Nguyen Van Ba and Le Tien Phuoc flew it to shoot down a US C-123 over Laos in 1964.
       
      This skin was painted using a single profile as a reference, some artistic license was used for
      the rest of the airframe.
      This mod features a modded data.ini file, that is using VPAF pilots, and a modded loadout.ini
      file, that is using soviet ammo.

    2. Here is a wad of avionics.ini mods for the SF2 F-111s by @FastCargo.  Now granted I recommend @viper63a's F-111 add-ons to graft on top of 'em you can get here: https://combatace.com/files/category/630-f-111/ 
      Basically what I've done is add a CCIP or Continuously Calculated Impact Point to the HUD.  The intent is to give you the chance to be a lot more accurate droping Mk 80-series dumb bombs in the F-111.  Especially since  there is no feedback when bombing from the Weapons System Operator/WSO in SF2.  
      Now I realize this isn't realistic for the days of the F-111 when there was absolutely NO helmet-mounted display that could project on top of a cockpit like now in 2020 with the Lightning IIs, Flankers, Fulcrums and arguably other front-line jets like the Super Hornet & Typhoon.  Frankly from the research I've done most of the F-111 variants with the exception of the D likely never got a CCIP.  The fact later models got a PAVE TACK to drop laser-guided bombs was a factor and of course, the F-111 had the Lead Computing Optical Sight that one can't program in SF2.  So this copy-paste job of mine could very well be the next best thing with at least a realistic icon big enough to have some decent risk of circular error.
      Maybe there is better, hence this being an open beta.  I would also like to incorporate terrain following into a bigger avionics upgrade... ;-).

    4. Hello SF2 Flyers,
      For the post-WW2 prop. high-performance aircraft, several tweaks have been applied to the data inis, ranging from lift values for wings and wing tips to the engine section, prop. rpms, flight control section, gears section, flaps, also empty weight, inertia values, ceilings, engine sounds, rudder reversal effect fix, aileron/elevator/rudder sensitivity and movement, etc., depending on the type tweaked. Tweaks are not as extensive as for my FE2 work - but I've tried to get them into the "90% realistic enough" category for SF2 since these high-performance types are difficult to precision peg to within a km or two of historical stats., in contrast to the slower-moving FE2 types. Also included with this package are my minor data ini tweaks for several Flogger types, such as the MiG-23 S, early M, ML, P, MLA, late variant "98," and export variants MF and MS.
      Many thanks to the original FM modders for the late prop. types, including Baffmeister, Wrench, Cocas, MontyCZ, Charles of A-Team, Coupi, Paolopanz, and others I may not have mentioned here. The data inis are for SF2 installs only, tested at hard FM settings (no guarantees that the AI can land them nicely, although they fly them just fine). The Me109 G5 and H0 are variants on the stock G10 package provided on CombatAce (to install simply copy the relevant aircraft folders, rename as per my included folders, and drop in the relevant files). P-47 Sprint upgrades are variants on the ETO P-47D Bubbletop model and PTO P-47D Razorback model. Also included with this package are three sounds for a Pratt-Whitney, Centaurus, and Me109 either Benz or Hisso powered (sound works good for both). Links to the relevant aircraft that correspond with these data ini tweaks are located in the included "Read Me" file with the package. Please go through the Read Me for more thorough info. regarding these FM tweaks.
      Version 1.2 of this package includes the P-47N and improves the data inis for the other Jug and Superbolt variants.
      Happy flying,
      Von S

    5. Hello SF2 flyers,
