Royal Navy FG2 with 7 skins

What-If Aviation proudly presents the BAe Systems Skyhawk FG.3a! Based on the Third-Wire A-4F model.
 
Skins by the very talented Sundowner.

West German Luftwaffe A-4E Skyhawk for SF, WoV & WoE:
 
This is a mod the stock 3rd Wire A-4E Skyhawk joining the ranks of "What If..." they had been purchased by the West German Air Force, to replace their Fiat G-91s while awaiting the arrival of the Tornado IDS, in the light to medium attack/strike role. (due to 'unforseen delays' in the Toros)
 
I feel an aircraft like the Scooter is almost perfect for the European environment: light, fast, manuverable, good weapons fits, easy to fly and maintain, survivable, etc.
Did I mention it was fun to fly???
 
This is a full aircraft mod tested in SF, WoV, and totally designed for WoE.
This aircraft is designed with the latest Weapons Pak in mind, and has had it's loadouts adjusted accordingly.
I also 'split' the hardpoints, to allow for asymetrical loads on the outboard pylons.
It uses the stock A-4F cockpit (supplied via the cat file! - saves on space in the d/load)
 
I've also repainted the stock gunsight tga, by making in a brighter yellow. Makes it easier to see for us old folks ;)
Also, it is reccomened that you grab 'Range Counter Fix' for the Skyhawks. .
There's also a real nice 'photoreal' cockpit upgrade for F model Scooters.
Both are available here at CombatAce ... I reccomend them!
 
This is version 2 of this mod, as there were some issues I need to fix, and had relased the other before total completion.
If you d/led the original, I suggest deleting it and getting this upgraded version. Sorry for the inconvience
 
Skin created using stock 3rd Wire templates.
Camo pattern by Gramps; modified for European-style colors (thanks Richard!!)
 
 
Good Hunting & Happy Landings!

McD/Boeing RAF Eagle FGR.1 Mod for WoE ONLY!!
 
Another "What If..."
This is a package of ini and skin (well, decals, anyway) mods for the stock F-15A that comes with WoE. It creates a new aircraft, for use by the Royal Air Force.
 
From the ReadMe:
 
= TO INSTALL:
 
It IS suggested that you have the latest weapons pak installed to get the maximum use out of the available weapons capabilities....but this is easily changed to use the "stock" non-modifed weapons. More on that later....
 
== REMEMBER: This mod is for use in WOE -ONLY!!!- as all the parts ONLY exist there ==
--- Also -- this if for the STOCK 3rd Wire F-15A ONLY - NOT the MF version ---
REMEMBER -- this is NOT a full aircraft, and you MUST have Wings Over Europe to make use of this aircraft mod.
 
When you unzip to a temp directory, a new "Eagle_FGR1" folder will be created. In it you'll find everything you need to just copy/paste this new bird into your /objects/aircraft folder. Including all the modified stock inis and new damage tgas, somehow overlooked, which are also usable on the standard WoE F-15A. But you'r not ready to fly yet.....
 
All the cockpit files, cockpit ini, etc, are making use of ALL the stock WoE bits. They are NOT included, but the ini is (to make your life a little easier; & cause I forgot to remove it!)
 
You'll find a bunch of inis, bmps, tgas, whathave you for this install. The data ini has had the NationName= set to "RAF", so when you fly you'll get RAF medals, and have British flightmates. The loadout has also been adjusted to use UK and USAF weapons.
 
Just about all types of weapons are loadable, most particulary EOGB, ASM, ARM, EOGR, TV guided missiles, iron bombs and CBUs. The aircraft is NOT equiped with a laser designator, so LGBs are not an option.
 
REMEMBER -- this is NOT a full aircraft, and you MUST have Wings Over Europe to make use of this aircraft mod.
 
You'll have the skin folders; "RAF" which just contains a few decals and inis -- you'll need to transfer over the 6 skin bmps from your stock WOE F-15A, as these are reused. In fact, even the decals are the stock ones, just desaturated by me to give them that 'lo-viz' look. The RAF serials are also stock in-game from the F-4M Phantom. They may not be historically correct (yeah, like anything in this mod IS???), but they fit into the era, and look nice.
 
-getting the point?? this is for WoE ONLY -- I will not violate copyright and upload files that at not leagle to share. --
 
There are further, more detailed instructions for those without the weapons pak -- folks, I spent a lot of time on the readme (actually, more on that than modding the bird!!!), so for the love of flying, I beg you -PLEASE- read it!!
 
With thanks to all the other crazies out there like me that just can't leave a good thing alone!
Take that Fighter Mafia!!!
 
Good Hunting!
