    1. SF2 F-86A Sabre, 115th FIS, California ANG Skin Pack       6/9/2019
      -For SF2, Any and All (Full Merged Reccomended)
      This is a NEW skin for the F-86A Sabre. It is designed to be used on the SF2 KAW Sabres Pack, for the F-86A-5 available therein. The Sabres are to be found at the following URL:
      https://combatace.com/files/file/13604-sf2-korean-war-era-f-86-sabre-pak/
      Also included is a new data ini, with updated hit and collision boxes, and some meshes now correctly named. Honestly, I'd never noticed they were 'way off' until Mue's LOD Viewer! Please note, that Crusader's fix-its have already been applied to THIS versions' data ini. A backup copy of the original (2012) data ini is supplied, so as to lessen End User (tm) workload, and provide a safety net 'just in case'.
      This skin repesents the 115th Fighter Interceptor Squadron of the California Air National Guard from 1954 through 1959-ish.  The skin is in jpg format, and 26 all NEW serial number decals have been created for it.  While the serial numbers are historically correct for the A model, they should beconsidered generic in nature as they don't actually represent aircraft from this particular unit. However, at least 9 of these ARE actual aircraft used by the 115th; the rest =were= used by other CA ANG units. Decal randomization is TRUE. Squadron color markings are 'painted on' the skin maps. 
      On the skin selection menu, on the Loadout Page, you'll see:
      115th FIS, CA ANG (54-59)
      The SF2 "date switch" =IS= active on this skin. It will automatically be chosen for years of 1954 and later.
      As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. 

      Happy Landings!

    2. SF2 F-86E Sabre, 144th FIS, Alaska ANG Skin Pack       6/5/2019
      -For SF2, Any and All (Full Merged Reccomended)
      This is a complete revamp of a 1stGen Sabre skin by Dave "USAFMTL" Slavins from June, 2003. It is designed to be used on the SF2 KAW Sabres Pack, for the F-86E-10 available therein. The Sabres are to be found at the following URL:
      https://combatace.com/files/file/13604-sf2-korean-war-era-f-86-sabre-pak/
      Also included is a new data ini, with updated hit and collision boxes, and some meshes now correctly named. Honestly, I'd never noticed they were 'way off' until Mue's LOD Viewer! Please note, that Crusader's fix-its have already been applied to THIS versions' data ini. A backup copy of the original (2013) data ini is supplied, so as to lessen End User (tm) workload, and provide a safety net 'just in case'.
      This skin repesents the 144th Fighter Interceptor Squadron of the Alaska Air National Guard from 1955 through 1957-ish, when their mission changed from Air Defense to Airlift.  The skin is in jpg format, and 26 all NEW decals have been created for it.  While the serial numbers are historically correct for the E model, they should beconsidered generic in nature as they don't actually repsent aircraft from this particular unit. Decal randomization is TRUE.

      144th FIS AK ANG (1954-58)
      The SF2 "date switch" is NOT active on this skin. You'll have to select this skin for your flightmates by hand. However it is easily added by a simple text edit.
      As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. 

      Happy Landings!

    3. Hello!
      Here's a set of skins for Thirdwire's Spitfires LF Mk. IX's for D-Day campaigns. National markings and D-Day ID bands are painted-on.
      You'll need Strike Fighters 2 Expansion Pack 1 for the Spitfires.
      Just drop in the aircraft folders and fly!
      Thanks to Thirdwire for the 3D models.

    4. There’s no record of a twin P-40 ever having been made and the only evidence is a few Pics found on the internet. There were a few variations on the design, so I took a bit from them and add lib'd a few of my own.
      Credits:

      Model: Veltro2k
      Textures, decals and FM (Charles).

    5. This package represents the CF-100 MK-5 version as used by the Belgian Air Force in Europe. It's meant for a "typical" SF-2 installation that includes the GermanyCE terrain.
      The date range is historic, from December 1957, to October 1963. Skins for the three BAF squadrons that used the type are included.
      For campaign modders, the CF-100 MK-5 [BAF] date range fits in for the 1962 Red Thunder campaign.
      The skin jpeg's are quite large but I haven't had any frame rate issues on a mediocre Dell I-3 rig. The model does use distance lods.
      To improve the high altitude performance the CF-100 MK-5 had the gun pack removed and wing tip extensions added. On the real MK-5 the gunsight was removed as well. Considering those real life limitations, and the poor hit percentage of the rockets against maneuvering fighters, the aircraft role has been limited to INTERCEPT only.
      Some adjustments have been made to the FFAR and pod so if you have the previous MK-4B [NATO] installed you should remove the previous versions and install the new ones. The sounds and ejection seat are unchanged so you can skip that part of the install.
      After the model was built we found out the MK-5 couldn't carry wing tip tanks with the wing tip extensions installed. Sundowner is too busy to do any model work so the tip tanks have been removed using an ini edit. Bomb and guided missile racks are still available for what if scenarios.
      Check the ReadMe for a bit more information.

      The Canberra_2 engine sound and Mk3 ejection seat are included but not sure who made them. There is also a CF-100windsound which I might have made but don't remember for certain.

    6. This is skin for Nanchang Q-5 Fantan,  
      I hope that I succeed to make an approximate correct look of green and white paint, none of this would be possible without the original templates from our friend yakarov79, a great credit goes to him, thank you.

    7. SF2 Northrup F-89 Scorpion Remod Pack (V.3)                         5/25/2019
      *For SF2, Any & All (Full 5 Merged Prefered)*
      This is a repackaging, and MAJOR update of the F-89 Scorpion series of 1950s USAF All-Weather Interceptors. There have been many changes to the various inis, skins/decals, weapons, and whatnots. This is to be considered to be "Version 3", and hopefully the final time the F-89 gets a revamp (unless new models magically appear). This package builds on and improves from the v2 pack dated 3/3/2016. It also replaces that mod completely.
      This package contains ALL the various marks of the Scorpion, including those later variants built from/modded of Monty's original C & D model LODs. There are several new skins, marked with the star (*) You have herein:
      F-89C:
      57th FIS, (Keflavik, Iceland)
      74th FIS, 23rd FIW (Thule AFB, Greenland)
      F-89D:
      75th FIS (Presque Isle AFB, Maine 1955)
      84th FIS (Hamilton AFB 1955-59)
      64th FIS (Alaska Air Command)
      321st FIS, (Paine AFB, WA 1954)*
      F-89H:
      321st FIS, (Paine AFB, WA 1956)*
      75th FIS (Presque Isle AFB, Maine 1957)
      F-89J (Early):
      321st FIS, (Paine AFB, WA 1958)*
      449th FIS (Ladd AFB, Alaska)
      F-89J (Late)
      59th FIS, Goose Bay Labrador (1958-60)*
      178th FIS "Happy Hooligans" ND ANG (1958-66)
      124th FIS, Iowa ANG (1962-69)*
      Several versions also have a "Generic USAF Silver" skin, complete with decals. You may notice several squadrons used the Scorpion in several of it's various incarnations. This is historically correct.
      Due to mesh/node mapping reasons, some marking remain painted on. A large number however, are decals. Serial numbers are 100% correct for the models depicted, but should be considered 'generic' as they don't represent actual aircraft with a given unit. Decal randomization is TRUE for all skins. Squadron's listed in the stock game's SquadronList.ini have their names activated via my 'fake' SqTail decal. Those will display their proper names on the Loadout Screen's Squadron Selection Window. When possible, the SF2 'date switch' has been used to turn on Air National Guard units as they became equipped with F-89s.
      On such aircraft that have operating canopies (those that use the F-89D lod), the canopy works via the Standard Manual Animation Keystroke (tm), shift/0.
      Included also are "Scorpion" specifc weapons (using the "StationSpecifieCode=" statements. Nuke explosion effects are included for the AIR-2 Genie rocket.
      As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. See "Notes" section for full change log and other  important statements. The various other readmes, from all previous versions remain wherever they were originally residing.

      Good Hunting!

    8. This is my new USAF F-35 Aggressor skin with 65th AGRS, 57th ATG, Nellis AFB, NV markings. The paint scheme has been revealed recently and its purpose is to reflect the Chinese J-20 prototype stealth fighter.
      The skin was made with my latest template. I encourage you to use it with my slightly reworked F-35 which you can find here: 
      All the credits for the aircraft model go to FastCargo and other guys involved in the project.
      This skin and any other content of this mod cannot be used in any commercial project. Use it under Combatace Freeware License.
      To install, simply copy the contents of "to mod folder" folder into your game's  mod folder. Read the Knowledge Base for more information.
      Enjoy!
