    1. I was bored with all same SF-2 Israel screens,
      so I took Wrench's temps and made my own.
       
      I like these, I hope You, too.
       
      If feedback should be positive, maybe I
      could try to remake SF-2 EU or VIET, too.
       
      CONTENT:
       
      ALL stock screens redone.
       
      CREDITS:
       
      - Kevin 'Wrench' Stein for temps;
      - kout for original WOI Mainscreen I liked so much;
       
      TO INSTALL:
       
      Put all in Your main SF-2 Israel mod folder
       
      Enjoy.

    3. QF-100
       
      I made this drone mostly as spin off of other F-100 skins that the new Hgbn temps urged me.
       
      The daygloo paint is always pretty .....
       
      There are 3 skins inside the pack: red, orange and red silver tailed (my favorite).
       
      The fuel probe, the weapons and, of course, the pilot are removed.
       
      There is also a test mission engage the drone on the north sea with an F-4F
       
      (It comes towards you, so simply set the search radar at maximum range and wait).
       
      I have to thank:
       
      - Hgbn for his oustanding temps;
       
      - The wrench for his cockipit edits;
       
      - Storm for original SF-1 drone, I used as a guide
       
      - ChampionsVA56 for hangar/loading screens, hoping he will include this in his huge
      drone collection inside his great Mescalero proving ground.
       
      TO INSTALL:
       
      Simply put all in your main mod folder.
       
      You need my TuAF pack installed for showing nose/gear door numbers
       
      To fly the test mission mission You need SF-2 EU installed.
       
      To make the drone un-flyable go inside QF-100 folder, open QF-100.ini
      and change this:
       
      [AircraftData]
      AircraftFullName=QF-100 Drone
      AircraftShortName=QF-100
      AircraftDataFile=QF-100_DATA.ini
      UserList=QF-100_UserList.ini
      LoadoutImage=F-100D_loadout.tga
      //CockpitDataFile=QF-100D_COCKPIT.ini <-------------
       
       
      Happy trainings.

      34th Squadron "Black Bat"
      35th Squadron "Black Cat"
       
      A short history...
       
      The ROCAF/Taiwan's secret 34th Squadron's RB-69A/P2V-7U ELINT/SIGINT aircraft flew electronic reconnaissance missions over China and Vietnam. Overall, from 1953 to 1967, 34th Squadron flew 838 missions, 148 Black Bat crew members went down with 15 aircraft. A few were captured after being shot down and later released in Hong Kong. Last squadron's operational mission was flown on Jan. 25, 1967. After 1967, 34th Squadron stopped flying over and near Mainland China, and moved to special ops over Vietnam, until 1972. 12 members of 34th SQ also involved in CIA's Project Main Street in 1971 to 1972, involving tapping North Vietnam's communication link.
       
      The Black Cat Squadron was a squadron of the Republic of China Air Force that flew the U-2 surveillance plane out of Taoyuan Airbase in northern Taiwan, from 1961 to 1974. The formal designation of the squadron was the 35th Squadron, operating under the cover of a high altitude weather research squadron. 26 ROCAF pilots successfully completed U-2 training in the US and flew 220 operational missions, including 102 surveillance flights over the People's Republic of China.
      During the squadron's 14 years of existence, five U-2's were shot down by PRC air defenses, with three pilots killed and 2 pilots captured. One other pilot was killed while performing an operational mission off China coast. Seven other Black Cat U-2s were lost during training missions, killing 6 pilots.
      The squadron usually had only two U-2 assigned to it, sometimes down to just one aircraft. A total of 19 U-2s were assigned to the Black Cat Squadron, over fourteen years.
      The intelligence gathered by the Black Cat Squadron, which included evidence of a military build-up on the Sino-Soviet border, may have contributed to the U.S. opening to China during the Nixon administration by revealing the escalating tensions between the two communist nations. Shortly after Nixon's visit to Beijing, all reconnaissance flights over the People's Republic ceased, and the Black Cat Squadron was officially disbanded in the spring of 1974.

    6. F-104SM_ROCAF for SF2
       
      This is my modified F-104G to the F-104S series (which I really like). In the late 1960s, Taiwan was looking at purchasing F-104S from Italy, the deal never went through. Only the Turkish Air Froce bought 40 F-104S from Italy.

    7. Royal New Zealand Airforce DH Venom Skin
       
      For use with the SF2 DH Venom by Paulopanz found here http://combatace.com...11004-dh-venom/
       
      Instillation: Place files in apropriate location and allow to override (adds correct RNZAF years to Userlist.ini)
       
      History: Venoms were lent to the Royal New Zealand Air Force by the RAF to supplement the RNZAF’s Vampires and were used in the Malayan Emergency where they operated by No. 14 Squadron.
       
      UPDATED 31/01/11 RAF letters added to wing tip tanks after Pasko helped me out with the mesh names. However there is a small bit of bleed through on the bottom of the tanks from the decal. Because of this there are two folders in the download: One with the wing tip decals which is historically accurate. And one without the decals if you can’t live with the bleed through lol. You choose.

    8. The grand finale!! The last set of drones to complete your Mescalero range.
       
      -------------MEET YOUR NEW DRONES------------------
       
      QF-8A Crusader: Former Front-line USN Carrier based fighter. Converted to unmanned target drone beginning in 1973.
      An AGGRESSIVE drone of good manuverability and good countermeasures. Type expended by 1978.
       
      QF-4S Phantom II: Former Former Front-Line USN Carrier based fighter re-manufactured from the F-4J. An AGGRESSIVE drone
      of good manueverabilty and SUPERIOR countermeasures. Operated by detachment of VX-30 "Bloodhounds" out
      of NAS Point Magu, Calif. First use in 1990.....retirement is imminent.
       
      QRF-4C Phantom II: Former USAF recon-version of the Phantom. As supplies of figher F-4 airframes for drone use dwindle....some
      RF-4C's have been converted for use. A PASSIVE drone of good manuverability and good countermeasures.
      Operated by 53rd WEG out of Tyndall AFB, Florida. First used in 2007. Should be available until 2014.
       
      QF-16A: The Future of unmanned conversion drones. Next on the list as the last of the Phantom II airframes draws near.
      Conversion of F-16A airframes has begun in 2010. This will be an AGGRESSIVE drone of EXCELLENT manueverability
      and EXCELLENT countermeasures. Will be operated by 53rd WEG out of Tyndall AFB, Florida. Should be operational
      until at least 2020.
       
      F-84KX: Former USAF fighter.A small number of "obsolete" F-84B and C models were retired from ANG use and sold to the USN for use
      as target drones. Very little is known about actual use by the Navy. Your Thunderjet drone carries the colors of
      GMGRU-2 out of NAS Chichoteague,VA. An AGGRESSIVE drone of good manuverability and NO countermeasures. In use from
      1956-1965.
       
      AQM-28 Hounddog: Former USAF "stand-off" nuclear missile launched from the B-52. Retired from SAC in the 1970's and rebuilt
      for use as targets. A PASSIVE drone of poor manuverability, limited countermeasures BUT excellent acceleration.
      The target can and will quickly go supersonic to escape attack.
       
      --------------DRONE CONTROLLER-------------------
      DT-33A: USAF T-33 Shooting Star converted to drone controller. Long service life between 1950 and 1986!!
      DF-8F: Small numbers of F8U-1 Crusaders converted to drone controllers.
       
      ------------Hunter-Killer Aircraft------------------
      The "Original Crusader": The F8U-1 (F-8A)!!
       
      The first production version of the Crusader. First flight on September 20th 1955. A total of 318 airframes
      built between 1956 and 1958. The original order was for 448 aircraft but the last 130 were delivered as F8U-1E's
      (F-8B). Use of the Pratt and Whitney J57-P-4 engine made the F-8A a MACH 1.5 capable aircraft. Originally designed
      without them...the refueling system and sidewinder capability was added with the 50th production aircraft and retro-fitted
      to earlier models. The F-8A was armed with four 20mm cannon, thiry-two Mighty Mouse 2.75 inch FFAR in a hinged drawer
      below the fuselage and up to two sidewinder missiles on side stations. The AN/APG radar gunsight and fire control sys-
      tem was installed for weapons delivery.
       
      First USN squadron issued the new Crusader was VF-32 in 1957. First USMC squadron was VMF-122 the same year.
       
      Your F8U-1 (F-8A) carries the colors of VF(AW)-3 "Blue Nemesis" out of NAS Moffett Field, Calif. in 1957.
      Stay tuned to Combatace for my full release of the F8U-1 with over 10 USN and USMC skins to choose from!!
