Bae HawkT mk1A of RAF Brawdy Wales UK.Number 1 Squadron,TWU,(Tactical Weapons Unit,(Training))
By Me.Russouk2002@aol.com
 
Contains....Hawk T/mk1A
Hangar screen
Loadout
And is armed with...
Aden Gunpod,Aim9`s,and Rockets,(which will be replaced by Matra rockets when made.For next release)
Bombs are optional.edit the weapondata for your own choices.The Gunpod is an option in the loadout as in reality its not a fixed weapon on the hawk.
 
Just drop the Hawk_T1A folder in sf\objects\Aircraft folder and Decal folder too,copy and paste contents of Objects folder in SF\Objects folder
 
This is a very Beta Release as its not fully completed.It is quite flyable though.
I am currently remapping the Hawk as the bmps are too small.And theres a degree of Bitmap stretching etc,tho not evident in game.But I know its there,lol...When 2nd realease is done ,it will be just a case of a new Lod and Bitmap Textures,and new weapons.The latter will be for the new patch\Weapons editor as its pointless doing them now when the patch is due.
The FM is ok for now (currently being worked on).
This release is solely for feedback soas to improve the airtcraft in anyways.Dont forget this is only my 1st aircraft released,so dont expect perfection yet...lol
Drone was my 1st actual model and the schoolhouse for Major lee,which turned out well.was the 2nd..
I hope you enjoy flying the hawk as much as I enjoyed making it.Just remember Im no expert at data ini`s..lol

Falklands (Malvinas) Terrain by Major Lee
Tiles by Diego and Polak
Released with permission from Diego and Maj Lee
 
I think this terrain looks like the Falklands did in the war. It is/was WIP. You can add carriers and ships to it easily. It does need more targets etc but its a good furball terrain so enjoy.

This aircraft depicts a TA-4G Skyhawk of VC-724 Squadron, Royal Australian Navy, circa early 1970. Special thanx to "Fracture" for creating this beautiful aircraft and to "Starfighter" for his help with the making of this skin. Hope you enjoy, Pappy

This aircraft depicts a TA-4H Skyhawk of the Israeli Air Force. Special thanx to "Fracture" for creating this beautiful aircraft and to "Starfighter" for his help with the making of this skin. Hope you enjoy, Pappy

Just unpack and drop it in your F-100D folder and fly
 
 
I will say thanks to Sundowner for letting me use his EXELLENT High REZ templates .
 
Also to USAFMTL who done the Numbers decal, which he kindly permitted me to use.

VF-103 (the "Sluggers") was activated in 1952 as an F4U Corsair squadron. VF-103 shortly transitioned to the F9F Cougar. After a few years with the Cougar, VF-103 was one of the first squadrons to transition to the F-8 Crusader. Once the transition was completed they were teamed up with VF-102 on board Forrestal. Before the introduction to supersonic Crusader jets, American carrier battle groups were often embarrassed by British bombers during allied exercises as the RAF English Electric Canberras had always been able to make mock attacks on US Carriers with impunity. The carrier-based fighters at the time simply could not put up much resistance. During the 1958 Mediterranean cruise, British pilots were shocked when VF-103 tore through their formation of Canberras before they even had a chance to start their simulated attack.
 
Just put into your MF F-8E folder and fly.
 
Thanks to C5 for the skin templates. Thanks the rest of the MF for everything else.

The Navy fighter squadron known as the Red Rippers were established as VF-5S in 1927 at Hampton Roads, Virginia. They flew the Curtis F6C-3 Hawk and have served in World War II, the Korean War and the Vietnam War. From 1927 to World War II, the Rippers flew several propeller aircraft including the Boeing F3B-1 and F4B-1, the Grumman FF-1 and F3F-1 and also held the following designations: VF-5S, VB-1B, VF-5 and VF-4. During World War II the Rippers were known as VF-41 and supported the allied invasion of North Africa, downing sixteen enemy aircraft in the Grumman F4F-3 Wildcat. They conducted the first air strikes against German forces in Norway in September 1943. The Red Rippers were designated VF-A when they transferred to the Pacific Theatre in 1944 on board USS Bunker Hill (CV-17) and USS Essex (CV-9). In the Pacific they flew the first air strikes against Tokyo in the Grumman F6F Hellcat.
 
In 1948 the Red Rippers were redesignated as VF-11. After World War II, the Red Rippers leaped into the jet age, flying the McDonnell F2H Banshee during the Korean War from the USS Kearsarge (CV-33). On 15 Feb 1959, the original Red Rippers were disestablished, but when VF-43 was redesignated as VF-11 on the following day, they decided to adopt the traditions and insignia of the Red Rippers. The "new" VF-11 Red Rippers transitioned to the Chance-Vought F-8 Crusader on USS Franklin D. Roosevelt (CV-42) where they helped quell the unrest in the Dominican Republic in 1961. In 1965 the Rippers moved to NAS Oceana flying the F-4 Phantom and saw action in North Vietnam in 1967 flying from the decks of USS Forrestal (CV-59).

Thanks to Dels for the plane and the templates.

F-15C/D with MSIP upgrade. Moonjumper aka Crusader and his magic avionics work really takes this F-15 to a new level. It also features Fubar512, seriously reworked FM and tons of other ini work. Read the readme for details.

I took a few minutes to write a script for Eagles Great Air War for my Thrustmaster Cougar. Just thought I'd share the script is straight forward and includes a nice graphic layout.
 
Enjoy,

| GRUMMAN F-14A TOMCAT TCS Mod

|
The F-14A Tomcat the best fleet defender. |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
 
With the gracious permission of;
 
The Mirage Factory and Olivier ANGUILLE (BPAo);
 
This update includes the avionics upgrade by Sandmartin and Batman1978 which uses the avionics70 file to provide improved HUD and air to air radar and tracking capabilities and the TCS mod. This TCS mod provides a boresighted view only and does not (yet) track selected targets. The Radar Warning Receiver (RWR) has been updated and includes the implementation originally developed by wpnssgt.
 
The avionics upgrade by Sandmartin and Batman1978 uses the avionics70 file to provide improved HUD and air to air radar and tracking capabilities. This avionics70 mod does NOT work in a Wings Over Vietnam (and possibly not in Strike Fighter) only install. So if you are using a WoV install you will need to use the alternate cockpit using the avionics60 version. The TCS mod works in both versions.
 
Backup your files!
 
First, delete the cockpit folder in the F-14A or F-14A (IAF). Then copy the contents from the appropriate folder into the aircraft main folder.
 
Good hunting!

This variation of the original F-14A in one of the later operational configurations
to guard the fleet; the F-14A+. This is a minor tweak of the ini files to update the engines and radar. The F-14A+ included the same engines for the F-14D but this version did not include the air to ground capability of the F-14D. This is not the pre-production development mod but the fleet operational version which was also later referred to as the F-14B. Both the F-14A+ and the F-14B were employed in the fleet at the same time, with the F-14A+ generally deployed to the Pacific and the F-14B deployed to the Atlantic (the principle difference between the two aircraft being whether the squadron was in the Pacific or the Atlantic Fleet). This aircraft was withdrawn from fleet service in 2006 and replaced by the F-18F in the air to air role. All F-14's received air to ground capabilities in 1995 which are included in this model with the addition of conventional air to ground bombing capabilities.
 
The squadrons which deployed with the F-14A+ were VF-11, VF-24, VF-32, VF-74, VF-102, VF-103, VF-142 and VF-143. Those skins are not included in this file and must be downloaded and installed separately. The squadron skins included in this model are the original ones in the Mirage Factory F-14A. I recommend deleting the squadron skins in this model and loading the others. Since permission to include those skins was not given, those skins are not included here.
 
 
export : None
 
Just unzip this entire folder into your WOE/Ojects/Aircraft folder.
 
Note -1. The avionics upgrade by Sandmartin and Batman1978 uses the avionics70 file to provide improved HUD and air to air radar and tracking capabilities. This avionics70 mod does NOT work in a Wings Over Vietnam (and possibly not in Strike Fighter) only install. So if you are using a WoV install you will need to use the alternate cockpit using the avionics60 version. The TCS mod works in both versions.
 
Note; the missile stations are designed to pick up Active Radar Homing missiles and will employ the AIM-7 and AIM-54 series air to
air missiles. The model here will also pick up the AIM-120 series in the sim, but the aircraft was never wired or certified to
carry that missile. So if you want the realism, don't load that one.
 
Good hunting!

Soon after the Korean conflict began, the US Navy realized that its current front line fighters, the F9F Panther and F2H Banshee, were no match for the new MiG-15. The Navy wisely contracted North American Aviation to modify the superb F-86 Sabre for naval use, and the result was the FJ-2 Fury (the FJ-1 designation had already been applied to a completely different aircraft). The Fury was developed over the course of the 1950s into the FJ-3, represented here, and ultimately the FJ-4.

Here it is, better late then never, the Douglas TA-4J trainer.
