    1. M551 Sheridan.
      Pack contains new ground object for SF2 game.
      Basic modding skills are required to run this mod.  (copy/paste, modd folder structure etc.) 
      All ini files are beta....which mean  it's there, it works but it is not final.
      I'm hoping someone will do correct ini edits. So do not complain if something is not working- just edit your way.
      also included is weapon file - cargo for C-130 with additional lines for Dels's C-130. So easy to play with. And also wreck objects is there. Just copy wreck lod and also lines for wreckobject .ini.
      all skins are in 2048x2048 format.
      So play with it, and hope someone will do better ini for this vehicle.

    2. F-101 Voodoo Escort Fighter, as it was meant to be.
      Before the F-101 Voodoo suffered from 'mission creep and bloat' turning it into a (failed) nuclear strike fighter it was meant to purely be an escort fighter to protect Strategic Air Command's bombers. Before the name change to F-101 it was designated the F-88K Voodoo. Those original F-88K specifications made no mention of any air-to-ground role ("not a pound for air-to-ground!") and included an armament of three AIM-4 Falcon air-to-air missiles employed by the MA-7 fire control system with APG-37 air-to air-radar, full 7.3 G capability and K-19 gunsight (as on the F-105).
      Features:
      F-101A Voodoo Escort Fighter:
      - Full 7.33 G.
      - Reduced the effect/ impact of  the stall/ spin when you pull up suddenly in the FM.
      - MA-7 FCS with AN/APG-37 Radar, 30nm range.
      - LABS/ bombing control system removed from cockpit and replaced with MA-7/ Missile control system.
      - K-19 Gunsight system (as on F-105).
      - 3x Semi-recessed AIM-4 Falcon Missile stations.
      - “Not a pound for air-to-ground!”
      - 1957 Service entry.
      F-101C Voodoo Escort Fighter:
      - As above plus:
      - Upgraded Pratt & Whitney J57-P-413 engines delivering 11,628 lb dry and 17,100 lb afterburning.
      - Upgraded AN/APG-125 Radar, 60nm range
      - (X)AIM-4H Falcon missiles with proximity fuse and enhanced manoeuvrability (1971).
      - 1966 Service entry.
      The stock TW AIM-4D Falcon has had its performance data dumbed down in order (I presume) to represent its poor performance when used by the F-4D Phantom in the game. However the reason the Falcon missile performed so badly when used by the F-4D was more to do with it being used outside its engagement parameters and the complex/ lengthy manual firing process the F-4D could only used. When used as designed by the fire control computer (FCS) of the F-102A/ F-106A and fired within its parameters (the FCS  assisted the pilot with this) the Falcon was as effective as any other missile system of the era. In fact the IR seeker of the AIM-4D/ AIM-4G was the best on any IR missile until the AIM-9L was developed. As such I have corrected the data for all the Falcon missiles.

    3. Hi to all, I'm Astore. Thanks for downloading my skin pack ! 
      The UPEO (Universal Peace Enforcement Organization) is a fictional faction featured in the Ace Combat game series, and the main faction of Ace Combat 3 Electrosphere. 
      The Universal Peace Enforcement Organization is an international peacekeeping organization under the Neo United Nations. UPEO maintains the SARF (Special Armed Response Force) when military intervention is required for peacekeeping duties, as well as the Euro-Asia Public Network for neutral, continent-wide broadcasting.
      Despite its aim of enforcing peace, UPEO was a puppet of General Resource Limited until the late 2030s. The organization became more independent with the rise of Neucom Incorporated and with Gabriel William Clarkson taking office as UPEO's representative.
      UPEO is the player's initial organization at the start of Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere. In the Japanese version of the game, the player can defect from UPEO to either General Resource or Neucom.
      It has shown that their equipment is of two main aircraft carriers, a Nimitz class and an Air Vector UI-4053 Sphyrna, still in construction during the early events of the game. Their main base, is a military airport at the center of Expo City, the eastern city of the USEA continent excluding Megafloat, which is a floating-island city.
      The UPEO Air Fleet is composed by future versions of actual aircraft and some fictionals since the game is set in 2040 of the Strangereal Universe, but the only fictional continent invented at the game exit was the USEA, so, since the faction seems to be universal, there could be several other planes operative in other nations, which have been introduced only in Ace Combat 5 The Unsung War (That is set in 2015).
      Main air fleet
      EF-2000 Typhoon II -Base plane, multirole fighter-
      Mig-33 Fulcrum SS -Interceptors-
      F/A-18 Hornet ADV -Multirole, got from the General Resource LDT faction
      F-16XF Gyrfalcon -Air superiority, got from the General Resource LDT faction
      R-101U Delphinus I -Base plane of the R Fleet from Neucom.Inc faction
      R-201U Asterozoa -Heavy attacker fighter, Attacker from the R Fleet of the Neucom.Inc Faction
      SU-37 SUPERFLANKER II -Multirole, mainly Air Supremacy.-
      SU-43 Berkut -Multirole, mainly Air Supremacy.-
      UI-4053 Sphyrna - Heavy Air vector with the fuction of a flying aircraft carrier with jamming capabilities and interior hangar to store at least 20 planes. 
      R-505U -Presidential plane of Rapresentative Gabriel William Clarkson

      ___________________________________________________________________________________________
      Skin Pack: 
      F-15 D ACTIVE -UPEO and GR Skins-
      F-16A_Blk1 (Stock F-16) -UPEO skin-
      FA-18a (Stock F-18) -UPEO skin- 
      FA-27C (Yukikaze Planes Addon) -UPEO and NEU Skins-
      Mig-29C_RUS -UPEO Skin-
      Su-27SKM -UPEO and Upeo Ace Rena Hirose Skins-
      SU-47 -UPEO Skin-
      Typhoon -UPEO Skin and Typhoon ace skin-
      CVN-56 / Admiral 56 (Yukikaze Aircraft Carrier Addon) -UPEO Skin-
      Installation: Open the aircraft folder from the downloaded content, and copy/move the UPEO (and variant) folders to the plane's folder in your SF2 (StrikeFighters2>Objects>Aircraft>Your plane folder. Same for the Aircraft Carrier skin: StrikeFighters2>Objects>GroundObjects>Admiral56) There's no need to overwrite on other folders, just add them in the specific folders. My skins does not requires decals, since the emblems are painted in the skin.
      If the skin doesn't work or shows leaving your aircraft black, it's possible that you are using a different version of the plane from an another addon, or that your game doesn't read the skin format. When this happen, copy the skin files to save them, then try to change their format (Like JPG). If the skin sets are the same for other models with the same skin mapping, they should work too. 
      You can make a UPEO Nation in your INI Files continuing the list of nations. Be sure that the Nation number continues the series. In my case since I already got 271 Nations in my file, I've wrote Nation272 to make it work. But you could have to change the number.

      Most of these planes should work also on SF Gold. I've started working on the skin pack from Gold and then moved to SF2. Actually, also the F-18 has been downloaded from the FX Interactive site, but the addon from CombatAce should work too. To install manually the aircraft from that site, download them, the site will give a laucher-sort file. Ignore it, do mouse-right click and extract the files. You should obtain the aircraft folder to put in your SFG/SF2 aircraft folder, and it should work. Some of the templates for aircrafts were missing, then I had to make some new by hand, like for the F-15D Active. The older skins could be not at the same quality since I was working on SFG, but they'll be remade in future. 

      Bugs and errors: The files shouldn't damage your game, if something doesn't work just remove the folder of the skin. 
      The only bug I actually know is in the F-15 D ACTIVE canards, which couldn't be painted. It was the only Active I found, if you use it in SF2 be sure to insert also a cockpit file. 
      You can customize the skins if you want to, credit me when you post screens or other in way to allow other players to find the download. Don't forget to rate, good or bad.
      This was my first skin pack, I hope I didn't messed up and that everything works. Maybe I'll do other skins in future. Have fun !

    4. Su-33 Camo for Su-27M (What if)
      Alternative history :
      [TRUE] The aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov set sail on 15 October 2016 from the Kola Bay for takin part in Russian agression against Syria. The carrier was accompanied by an ocean-going tugboat, as a precaution due to potential propulsion failure.
      The airwing included 6-8 Su-33 fighters, 4 Mig-29K/KUBR multi-role aircraf.
      On 14 November 2016, a MiG-29K crashed into the sea after taking off from the carrier.
      On 15 November 2016, Admiral Kuznetsov, took part in bombing Syria.
      On 3 December 2016, an Su-33 crashed into the sea after attempting to land on the carrier.
      [FICTION] On 4 December early in the morning, the aircraft carrier's radar detected more than a dozen unknown air targets approaching their ship. In a panic, the Russians raised all Su-33 fighters to protect their aircraft carrier. But it was too late. In a matter of minutes all Su-33 planes were shot down. To this day it remains a mystery whether these were F-22 stelth aircraft or they were Israeli F-35 aircraft. Some person tells even it was martians.
      These cheerless news came to the Kremlin. The news of the loss of all Su-33 aircraft could not be published in the Russian mass media. Dumbfounded militarist propaganda residents, could inadequately respond to such a defeat of their troops. It was decided to hush up the news.
      Dmitry Rogozin minister of Defense Industry of Russia, suggested that all existing Su-27M to repaint in Su-33 camouflage colors.
      A few days later,  at night at  low altitude, all repainted Su-27Ms flew to Syria and start imitating the presence of the Su-33 in Syria and showed themselves in propaganda TV plots. We are waiting for the further events. BBC News, cpecial report, Syria.

      ========
      installation: unpack and copy to your installed before Su-27M or Su-37 folder. Be sure to overwrite the decals folder. It is very important! There is a fix for the  UV grid of the original model, cause of which the second wing had a reflection of the first that the aircraft was disfiguring.

    5. I really like the Su-37 model, but I always did not like its coloring. When I studied the history of the Su-27 series, I found out that the Su-37 and Su-27M did not differ in appearance. The fuselage, wings and tail are the same for them. Different only in engines. I decided to repaint this model in the colors of Su-27M, so it was more pleasant to kill this plane.
      ============
      Installation:
      Copy the files to the appropriate locations in your mod folder as usual. Be sure to overwrite the decals folder. It is very important! There is a fix for the  UV grid of the original model, cause of which the second wing had a reflection of the first that the aircraft was disfiguring.
      It is better to overwrite weapons folder. I ve made some small changes (fixed the years of using) in inies in some of them.
      ============
      I tried to make the skins as accurate as possible. But the skin T-10M-1 is not very accurate from below because of the limitations of the model. If you want to correct this, do not stop yourself. Fix, redraw, repack, share, I will be happy with your corrections of my skins.

    6. Another update of my RAF/RN Decals for you to use on absolutely whatever you want - be it factual, fictional, historical or hysterical. As a keen 'what-iffer' I 'd especially like to see them appear where they shouldn't! So break out the Century Series, Mirages, MiGs and Sukhois and get 'whiffing' and remember to post your screenshots! I'd love to see them!

    7. Kuwait Scooters - A-4KU/TA-4KU for SF2 - v1.0
      ==================================================
      *** any SF2I that has the KfirC1_77 for the cockpit and DLC005 required for the A-4K model ***
      This mods represents the A-4KU and TA-4KU Skyhawks used by Kuwait between 1977 and 1992.
      In the 1970s Kuwait purchased 36 Skyhawks (30 single-seater + 6 two-seater). These planes were based upon A-4M, that were delivered to the USMC at that time. So they got the same engine, the larger canopy, the brakechute and the squared off fintip. Equipment needed to deliver nuclear weapons, aswell as Shrike- and Walleye were deleted. The TA-4KU were unique in having the same engine as the single-seater, aswell as the avionics hump. Apart from some aerials their appearance is similar to that of the OA-4M.
      When Iraq invaded Kuwait in 1990, many of the pilots flew with their planes to Saudi Arabia. They were included in the Royal Saudi Air Force and flew 1361 sorties with the loss of only 1 plane.
      With the end of the Gulf War they were placed in storage and replaced by F/A-18 Hornets. After failed attempts to sell the surviving 23 planes to Bosnia and the Phillipines, they were finally sold to Brazil in 1997 to serve aboard the Aircraft Carrier Minas Gerais as AF-1 and AF-1A.
      Infos
      =====
      - cockpit used is the modified KfirC1_77 cockpit, that is already used for my A-4M-mod. I only made small modifications to fit it the A-4KU.
      - Pilotmodel is a stand-in, until someone comes up with a Kuwaiti Pilot :)
      - Fakepilot-stuff like hump and the antennas are made with MUEs new Blender-exporter - as I already said and always will: Thank you, great job, mue!
      - Skin resolution is 4096x4096
      - Skins are set up for "No9SQN" as I only found the general info, that planes were used by "No. 9 and No. 25 squadrons" and both squadrons didn't
          use any special markings it seems.
