ARA General Belgrano was an Argentine Navy light cruiser in service from 1951 until 1982.
Originally commissioned by the U.S. as USS Phoenix, she saw action in the Pacific theatre
of World War II before being sold by the United States Navy to Argentina.
Transferred to Argentine Navy as Diecisiete de Octubre, 9 April 1951, renamed ARA General Belgrano 1956.
The vessel was the second to have been named after the Argentine founding father Manuel Belgrano (1770–1820).
She was sunk on 2 May 1982 during the Falklands War by the Royal Navy submarine Conqueror with the loss of 323 lives.
Losses from General Belgrano totalled just over half of Argentine military deaths in the war.

This aircraft mod represents the probable workout of Dassault's Mirage 4000 and also the first member of an aircraft family as the company always created several variants of each type based on costumer requirement and evolution of technology. Other types and variants will be uploaded as separate packages.
This package comes with 2 skin sets, the white prototype available for 4 AC, and a test squadron skin for 26 planes.

This model is meant for SF2 games only, SF1 variants will be uploaded at the SF1 section. 
Install is the regular dropping the contents in their respective places. 
Please note: The model can be quite heavy on FPS in large formations on weaker machines, so if required, either resize skin files or use lower lods(_nd,001,002,003) as lod1.
The model uses the general french weapons, either as part of weapon packs or the Mirage 2000 family.
Make sure to read the manual included with the package.

Hawker Hunter F.6 ' Red Arrows' for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 
This is a simple mod of the stock Hawker Hunter F.6 to give my interpretation as to how it might have looked if the famous Red Arrows display team had flown it in the 1960's. I've kept it simple by using a Gnat-esque scheme but I've used white serial numbers instead of blue.

INSTRUCTIONS
1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the HunterF6ra folder into your Aircraft folder.
2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the HunterF6ra folder into your Decals folder.
That's it!
BTW the mission editor can be used to select all 9 aircraft leaving you to get some formation screenshots taken!

CREDITS
As always, thanks to Third Wire for a great little game/sim.
A big thank you to Sundowner for releasing his Hunter tempates to allow ham-fisted amateurs like me to get a bit creative.
And, finally, thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.

Version 1 - 07/03/19

This is my JASDF F-35A skin pack. It contains two skins: reallistic F-35 Rinji Hikotai plain skin and a semi-fictional one with 302 Hikotai tail markings. The skin was made with my latest template.
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!

SF2 Atlas Impala Mk.II Early Skin "Fix It"        3/7/2019
= For SF2, Any/All (Full 5 Merged RECCOMENDED!) =
This is a "repair" package for the recently released ATlas Impala Mk.2 by Marcfighters.
This kit ONLY contains the skin folder "Early". The fuselage and wings have been repainted
and had the necessary panel lines redrawn to remove the painted on national markings. They
are now all decals, which are stock in all 3W games (merged).
The Entire Aircraft package, available below is also getting this patch applied, so if
you've downloaded the aircraft already, this fix-it kit for YOU. 
If you haven't downloaded the aircraft, what's stopping you??? :)
Below is the URL for the full aircraft package (updated)
https://combatace.com/files/file/16939-sf2-atlas-impala-mkii-by-marcfighters-v2/
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!

= For SF2, Any/All (Full 5 Merged RECCOMENDED!) =
This is the release of Marcfighters Atlas Impala Mk.2, single seat COIN/Attack jet as used by the South African Air Force.
This aircraft has/had languished for a considerable amount of time in that "hangar of forgotten & unfinished mods". I hope that this will correct that.
This mod represents the Atlas Impala MK2, single seat attack jets. The mod uses all stock 3W weapons (which may need further research/adjustments). 25 all new historically correct SAAF serial number decals are included, and Randomization is TRUE These decals are used for both included skins. This is the SAAF -ONLY-, non exported version. No user list was created; the aircraft is single nation only. There are 2 skins, and "Early" and "Late"; the late uses the SF2-date switch and starts in 1982
When in-game, you'll see
Atlas Impala MK.II (MB-326K SAAF)
on the aircraft drop down selection panel.
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. The Uploader takes NO credit for the aircraft itself, only for those edits and adjustment to get it more in compliance with the SF2 Environment (tm). See "Notes" section for full change log and other VERy important statements.
= Please Note: is models is released "AS IS". Anything that cannot be corrected/adjusted via ini edits will remain so for all time =
Happy Landings!

** Important Note: if you install this to the Angola Mod, be advised that there exists an aircraft named Impala Mk.II. This should NOT conflict with it, but you may have some editing to do, as theirs is labeled "Stand In". It is not advised to just drop this one into that mod without further editing. **
 
UPDATED: 3/7/2019
"Early" skin has been repainted to remove national markings. All have now been replaced with decals.

Lockheed F-104C 'Getti Tonanti' for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2
This is a very simple mod of the stock Third Wire F-104C to create a fictional F-104C of the famous 'Getti Tonanti' aerobatic display team of the Aeronautica Militare who performed at the opening ceremony of the 1960 Olympic Games in Rome. The real 'Getti Tontanti' flew F-84F's in 1960 so this is just my interpretation of how the Starfighter might have looked with those distinctive Olympic Rings coloured tails.
If you haven't got the F-104C then I'm sure you can hack it to fit the F-104G by changing the skin bitmap names, etc.

BACKSTORY
Entering service in February 1958 with the 83rd Fighter Interceptor Squadron at Hamilton AFB, California the F-104A interceptor served only briefly with the USAF Air Defense Command but this was soon followed by the multi-role F-104C which entered service with USAF Tactical Air Command in September 1958 when the 479th Tactical Fighter Wing at George AFB, California began to re-equip with the type. Despite setting a new world altitude record of 103,395 ft (31,515 m) just a few months later in December 1958 the USAF sharply reduced their orders for the F-104 leading Lockheed to urgently seek export orders and they soon gained an export order from the Italian Government in January 1960 for 40 F-104C's for the Aeronautica Militare. 
With Italy hosting the Olympic Games in the late summer of 1960, the Italian President Giovanni Gronchi personally asked the US President Dwight D. Eisenhower for the earliest possible delivery date as he wanted to use the F-104C's as part of the opening ceremony. Not only did 'Ike' graciously agree but he also authorised the immediate transfer of 10 F-104C's from USAF stocks which were airlifted to Europe during February and March being reassembled at Ramstein Air Base before being flown to Villafranca Air Base by USAF pilots and officially handed over to the 5th Aerobrigata of the Aeronautica Militare. The F-104C's replaced the F-84F Thunderstreaks of the 'Getti Tonanti' aerobatic display team and this elite unit performed a sensational display at both the opening and closing ceremonies of the Games of the XVII Olympiad held in Rome from August 25th to September 11th, 1960.

INSTRUCTIONS
1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the F-104Cgt folder into your Aircraft folder.
2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the F-104Cgt folder into your main Decals folder.
That's it! 
BTW the mission editor can be used to select all 6 aircraft leaving you to get some formation screenshots taken!
