Strike Fighters 1 Series by Thirdwire

This is an alternate flight model I developed about a year before the F-102A Delta Dagger was released by Veltro2K. It is based on Pasko's F-106 flight model, but modified in deliberate ways. I used Mirage 3 flight models as a guide as well as it is underpowered and has that huge hanging delta.
 
After I finished, I stop watch timed its climb compared to the F-106, and it matched the specs very closely if I remember right.
 
I added more drag as well because of the more forward air inlets and other drag producing features. I played with the engine thrust until the climbing numbers worked out.
 
Although a beautiful flying airplane, it bleeds off speed much faster than the F-106 (and the standard released F-102A) in high G situations due to less engine power and more drag. It also climbs much slower, but still not bad compared to contemporaires.
 
However, It really is not a dogfighter as some would claim the later more powerful and more refined F-106 was. I have dogfighted this flight model against all types of early Migs to the Mig-21. If you keep fast and boom and zoom with its incredible radar system, you can equal the Mig-21 and sometimes kill one.
 
Thanks to Pasko for his incredible F-106 flight model.
 
V.3 changes.
The drop tanks are now droppable. Thanks Lexx_Luthor.
It was Pasko's F-106 flight model not Dave's that I based the F-102 on. Thanks Dave.
The pilot in the extenal view in now in the cockpit which some people had problems with depending on how much had been added.
 
 
Instructions:
 
1-Backup your files! (This time I really mean it...you may not like the flight model!)
 
2- Unzip the contents of the F-102 flight model folder to ...\SFP1\Objects\Aircraft\F-102A\.
 
3-When prompted, overwrite the files.
Enjoy!

Here are some Cold War themed desktop icons for use with the Third Wire series. Some have text while others do not. I tried to be creative with these and there are a variety to choose from.
 
NOTICE
 
The icons in this package were created from 48X48 bitmap images. Converting them into a windows desktop icon takes them down to 32X32. Some of these I have found to be not very clear when using them in a default Windows XP setup. Some look just fine at this size but some do not.(Some text is hard to see) I just started using a shareware version of something called IconX that essentially makes my Windows XP icons look more like Vista icons. This program allows me to basically enlarge the icons to any level while at the same time scaling them appropriately so that they do not loose any visual quality. So with this program for example, all of the icons are large and clear for me. I don't use Windows Vista so I do not know how these icons will scale for you folks. I assume you all won't have issues with them as Vista icons seem to have been designed much larger and with more versatility than XP.(Please forgive my ignorance here I just don't know much about it and I'm still learning)
 
As a result there are two packs in one here. A zip with the icons and a zip with the original 48X48 bitmaps. That way if someone has a specific need or adjustment they must make to get the most out of these icons, the original bitmaps are available to them to tweak as needed.
 
The download zip is called "Cold War Icons and Bitmaps". Inside this are the "Cold War Icons" zip and the "Cold War 48X48 Bitmaps" zip.
Just extract these zips to a temporary place and have a look and see what you can use. Also have at the provided bitmaps if you would like.
 
Thanks again,
Coot

This aircraft depicts an F-102A Delta Dagger of the 196th FIS, 163 FIG, California ANG based at Ontario Int'l airport near Los Angeles from May 1965 to March 1975.
Special thanks to Veltro2K for this model and all who put work into this aircraft along with Starfighter who always helps me with these skins.....
 
Hope you enjoy, Pappy
 
Any comments to improve this skin would be appreciated...

These F-102A loading screens were made by me about a year before Velto2K released his fantastic F-102A.
 
These have a more original Third Wire look.

3. Say yes to overwrite the files.
4. Remember to backup your files.
 
Enjoy!

Dirty Bird Exhaust Effect
By NeverEnough
 
This exhaust effect was inspired by the work of Deuces, Fubar512 and Spillone104.
After looking at lots of photos of the billowing smoke trails generated by the phantastic F-4 Phantom; I wanted to try to duplicate these big, greasy skidmarks in the sky.
The Dirty Bird Exhaust Effect is configured so that it may be used in either single engine or dual engine aircraft. The DBSingleExhaustEmitter will produce slightly more exhaust volume than the DBDualExhaustEmitter when used on a dual engine aircraft if you really want to accelerate global warming.
If you wish to have a slightly less smokey single engine aircraft, you could utilize the DBDualExhaustEmitter in a single engine aircraft.
Also included in the Dirty Bird Exhaust Effect package, is a particularly striking loading screen of the dirty end of a West German F-4F Phantom.
