Strike Fighters 1 Series by Thirdwire

This file is totally obsolete. Updates to TW FM's have eliminated all the issues I have tried to address. There may be a few items in the readme that may be of interest to newb's.
 
An attempt at making Third Wires F-104G a bit more user friendly, and hopefully A.I. friendly. The changes made to the data.ini don't reflect any actual aerodynamic numbers, but have been done to make the F-104G a bit nicer to fly. Consider it "Effect Modeling" as compared to actual "Flight Modeling". I did try to stay true to the "Goes fast, turns bad" concept, however. [it does turn a bit better than stock] No plans to give this treatment to any other aircraft, the F-104G is a bit of a "Special" case. More info in the read me.
 
Changes for version 1.1: Made the pitch response less 'Linear' and more effective at high speed and high altitude. Improved roll response at high angles of attack. Added a couple more degrees to the stalling angle. For general game usage, this FM is essentially performing the way I wanted it to. It may get the occasional update.

This skin depicts the F-86E-10-NA Sabre 51-2824 flown by Captain James Robinson "Robbie" Risner.He flew with the 336th FS out of Kimpo AB Korea.He ended his tour with 8 kills and was the 12th highest ace of the Korean war.This skin was a hard one I could not find much information about it and was working off a couple of pictures I found in a old Squadron in action book that I thank them for.The rest is all my Potoshop work.I'm not at all sure about the artwork but it will have to do.

Super-Sherman-M51

Armourdave released allready an excellent Su-17, but his model is showing the shape of the later produced Su-17M2 - Su-17M4 series.
This is the first major production version Su-17M with straight nose and without avionic hump behind the cockpit.
I haven´t included a readme, just drop in your aircraft folder and fly!
Credits and thanks to Armourdave for his wonderfull Su-17 cockpit!
 
I would call this download a "light" product, as it´s beyond Beta stage, but not complete.
Missing Hangar and Loading screens, FM needs a bit tweaking i guess and avionics and loadout files are poor.
But i thought of sharing it, before it lasts forever alone on my HD!

This skin depicts the F-86E-10 51-2747 stud-HONEST JOHN of Col Walker Mahurin (4th FG Deputy CO),Kimpo AB,Korea,December 1951.By now I us the template that I have Thrown together to use for my Photoshop work,if any one else sees their work I thank you and hope they approve.I made this skin as shinny as I could so have a good pair sun glasses ready.

Curtiss P-40B Tomahawk Skin "Pearl Harbor Defenders"
 
This is a new skin (and ini pak) for Wolf257s P-40B Tomahawk, representing the 47th Pursuit Squadron, 15 Pursuit Group, Haleiwa Field, HI. as seen on the morning of 7 December, 1941.
 
It is desgned for use on a user created "P-40B", NOT the standard Tomahawk that comes with Wolf's WW2 Planes Pak. For those that have NOT created a seperate P-40B, instructions are below in the "Creating a Seperate USAAC P-40B". I've included just about everything you should need for the task. EXCEPTING - the aircraft LOD and cockpit folders are NOT included, so you'll need the original Tomahawk to copy these files / folders from. However, I have included a new gunsight (ring-and-bead), as seen in some other Tomahawk mods I've done over the years. A new, revamped USAAC style Hangar screen is also included, as is the damage tga. Running lights have been corrected or added to, and a landing light has also been added.
 
= IMPORTANT: This aircraft is designed for use in SF/WoV/WoE -ONLY-, It has =NOT= been tested it in post 8/28/08 patch WoI, or post 9/08 - 10/08 patch SF/WoV/WoE. You use it in these enviroments at your own risk. =
 
=This mod is designed for use with the Bunyap Weapons Pak of 6/06, as it contains all the needed weapons . If attempting to use this aircraft with any other weapons pak, you'll need to add ALL the WW2 era bombs, torpedoes, etc. They are NOT included in this package.=
*(not like this version Tomahawk -actually- carries anything but machine guns...)*
 
== PLEASE read the enclosed readme through BEFORE installing this aircraft mod into you game install. This will get you familiar with the procedure, and you'll know exactly what to do!!! ==
 
Happy Landings!
