TMF Boeing 707-300 Comprehensive Skinpack
This mod will replace the individual skins for the TMF 707 and adds my multi airline skins to it, covering the eras from the early 1960s until the late 1980s and will add some eye candy to your parking ramps or make for interesting intercept and escort targets
    INSTALLATION
This is only a skin pack with some additional items. First you will need the original located here:
then unzip and add this mod as well. allow overwrites.
You can delete the previous skins if you want, as they are represented in the skin pack
IF YOU HAVE YOUR OWN NATIONS.INI, ADD FROM THE GIVEN TEXT FILE. This is for heavily modded installs
    INCLUDED
Decal sets covering most major users from 1959 until 1989
Skins to cover that time period in 9 blocks, with bare metal base skins
Nations and Formations ini for the "Airline" nation
    KNOWN ISSUES
Number 1:  THIS THING IS BIG! the fuselage tgas are 2048x2048 (working with details over an entire fuselage rather than basic colors
and curves) and the biggest sets are representing 32 airlines in their era! So this is not for the small of HDD space
Number 2: Due to quirks in the model, and ease for the modder it is not 100% aligned as in RL. the cabin windows are a little lower (which
allowed the logos to go one easier), and the curves tend to stop short of the radome.
Number 3: this uses the Herc pit to be flyable. I ad it to be able to check the decals, but leave it for those that may want to use it.
The pit is a piss poor match however, both with frames blocking and the higher tech than available even into the 80s for civilian birds
It is meant as eye candy, not operational missions.
Number 4: due to the size of things, some of the lettering is not to legible when you get close to it. Again, eye candy, its meant to be seen
from the runway when taking off or on an intercept. If your that close to see "hey it really is fuzzy" you will probably collide. Besides, the
thing is huge as is at teh current tga size
    UNSOLICTED ADVICE
I am one of those that likes all encompassing mods. If you have a certain era you would rather focus on, by all means delete the other eras
that you don't need. Again this thing is huge, but covers almost every user from 1959 through 1989.

Stealth SLUFs : A-7D in service with the 4450th Tactical Group
This mod adds several new skins to showcase the stock ThirdWire A-7D as it appeared with the 4450th Tactical Group in the 1980s. The mod features their special version of the European 1 camo scheme as well as the SEA wraparound they appeared in for about the first year of operation.
The 4450th Tactical Group was the first unit to operate the then ultra secret F-117A Nighthawk. In order to maintain a cover other than "Stealth Fighter", the group also operated around a dozen A-7Ds to develop "avionics for the A-7D". They flew the Corsair II from mid 1981 until 1989, after the F-117A program became public a few mnths prior.
            REQUIREMENTS
This mod requires you to have STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 EUROPE for the A-7D_75 and _78 it is based on.

SLUFs on Guard: A-7D in Air National Guard service 1974-1993
This mod adds several new skins to showcase the stock ThirdWire A-7D as it appeared in Air National Guard service. This mod includes two "new" A-7 variants based off the stock A-7D_78, mainly for ease of incorporating skins and saving 500MB of space!
The A-7D Corsair II (most commonly called the SLUF) first entered service in the Air Guard with the 188th Tactical Fighter Squadron, New Mexico ANG, in early 1974. The SLUF went on to serve with 16 different squadrons of the ANG, 15 of which are presented here (Arizona's 162nd TFS was the schoolhouse and flew predominantly A-7K two seaters). The A-7D finally bowed out of USAF service when the 162d Fighter Squadron, Ohio ANG, retired theirs in early 1993.
            REQUIREMENTS
This mod requires you to have STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 EUROPE for the A-7D_75 and _78 it is based on. You could adapt rename the skins for use with the A-7D found in SF2 or SF2V,
but thats 5 files in 60 some skins.

historic serials                  well, fairly historic. this was a tough nut to crack and airframes are matched to units as best as possible.
nose arts                           for the gray 112th TFS (Ohio ANG) and all 149th TFS (Virginia ANG)
weapons                           regular bombs modded by me to boost base supply levels. other weapons that could be seen later in life added too including the LANA FLIR pod
ini edits                             mostly tweaking weapons loadouts. Air Guard SLUFs were more likely to carry basic bomb loads rather than the precision guided toys. and rarely had tanks
