SF2 A-37B Dragonfly VNAF Skin Pack 12/7/2025
-For SF2 =ONLY= (Any & All, Full 4/5 Merged Recommended)
Designed for SF2:V!!!
What we have here are 2 new skins for Centurion & Co's. A-37B Dragonfly. These 2 skins represent those as used by the Vietnam Air Force (South). These skins were to have been done by Eole, as the fuselage squadron bands were found ready to use on the template included with the aircraft download. Speaking of which, you can find the full aircraft, if you don't have it already, at the following URL:
https://combatace.com/files/file/16196-usaf-a-37b-pack/
The skins herein represent the following VNAF units:
516th FS, VNAF <68 (blue w/white stars fuselage stripe)
524th FS, VNAF <69 (blue w/red & white chevrons fuselage stripe)
The SF2 'date switch is NOT active for these 2 skins. The dates shown are just for historical clarity.
Almost all markings are decals, excepting the aforementioned fuselage ID bands. Both skins use a pool of 24 serial number decals. I was unable to match individual numbers to specific units, but all these serials WERE used by VNAF Dragonflys. Decal Randomization is TRUE. I've also included an updated Userlist and Data inis, adding the missing VNAF, and adjusting the Exported start and end dates. To be safe, you might wish to backup the original Data ini before installing. Just because, even though nothing else has been changed. No sounds, weapons or pilots are included. It uses all from the original package.
As is always recommended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions.
Please read the Notes section for other useless information, and (hopefully) full credits.
Please also take note of changes in the Standard Disclaimer in the "Legal BS" section at the bottom.
Good Hunting & Happy Landings!

SF2 MiG-15bis "Fagot-B" Algerian Air Force Skin Pack by Cliff7600 9/14/2025
-For SF2 =ONLY= (Full 4/5 Merged Recommended)
NOTE:
If you've made it flyable and use the "read only main ini trick", you'll have to turn that off after adding this skin. See "Installation" for more details.
In Cliff7600's own words ..
"I have made a quick skin for a Algerian MiG-15bis at the start of the Algerian air force with the early roundel and fin flash from a picture found on the net.
It's for the Third Wire MiG-15bis.
I've sent it to you and you can use it as you want for the Iberia terrain you released.
You might add the "insignia trick" in the decals ini file because there's no stock insignia or fin flash decal.
The numbers are semi-historical as I took what I found from the thread about the Moroccan and Algerian numbers. I made 12 of them.
It's my contribution lol"
All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. The skin remains in their 'as issued' BMP format (3w Rez)
When on the Loadout Page, you'll see
Algeria 1964

SF2 Su-24MK "Fencer-D" Algerian Air Force Skin & Ini Pack 9/1/2025
-For SF2 =ONLY= (Full 4/5 Merged Recommended)
Here is a new(ish) skin, decal and ini set for the Veltro2k's Sukhoi Su-24MK "Fencer-D"", as used by the Algerian Air Force from 1989 thru the late 2020s. If you don't have the aircraft, it can be found at the following URL:
https://combatace.com/files/file/12158-sf2-su-24-fencers/
You MUST have the aircraft installed BEFORE adding this mod, as MANY newly edited/corrected items are included within this package.
All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. The Serial numbers are 100% historically correct for this type of aircraft. You'll have 34 of them (I think that's ALL of them!). The skin is in jpg format (2048x), and is reused (rebadged?) from Slick Cowboys' "Improved Fencer Skins Pack" from 2015.
When on the Loadout Page, you'll see:
274e Escadron d'Attaque (QJJ) <1989
The actual folder name is QJJCamo.
I have included a modified data and loadout ini. The data ini gives the aircraft some "hardening" (via aluminum armor), and the loadout ini adds the drop tank for all missions. I've also included a new pilot figure, "Red7002" and ejection seat (K-36D) from Slick Cowboys' pack. I've included the weapons from the Original 2011 Release (tm) of the Fencer Pack, and made MANY adjustments (See "Notes" below).
The canopy is also reset to manual control and it uses the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0 (zero).

SF2 MiG-23MF "Flogger-B" Algerian Air Force Skin Pack 8/29/2025
-For SF2 =ONLY= (Full 4/5 Merged Recommended)
Here be 2 new skins and decal sets for the stock 3W MiG-23MF "Flogger-B" as used by the Algerian Air Force from 1980 until it's retirement around 2010. The early skin is a rebadging of the Syrian camo (closest to Real Life), and the later skin is in a 2-tone Sand/Dark Earth by Gerwin. There is an active date switch for the later skin (see below)
If you have made this plane flyable, and use the "read only main ini trick", you'll have to turn that off after adding this skin. See "Installation" for more details.
All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. The Serial numbers are historically correct for this type of aircraft (23MF). You'll have 18 of them. However, while most the numbers are correct, they should be considered Generic in nature, as I could not find which squadron each served in. So, I just assigned it to one that was known to operate this model. On the Number list in, any marked with a star (*) are 100% correct for this aircraft type. Those with no markings, are "best guess" fillers. The same serial number decals are used for both skins.
When on the Loadout Page, you'll see:
For the Early skin:
28e Escadron d'Interception (QJJ)<1980
For the Later skin:
28e Escadron d'Interception (QJJ)<1990
As you can see, there is an active start date (listing in the texture set ini) and will luck it will turn on in 1990. Again, this is a 'best guess' as to when the QJJ went to the 2-tone.
I have included a modified data and loadout ini. The data ini gives the aircraft some "hardening" (via aluminum armor), and the loadout ini adds the drop tank for all missions. All weapons used are stock, in-game items, so no additions are needed. I've also included a new pilot figure, "Red3201". The canopy is also activated, it uses the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0 (zero).
What I have NOT given you, are the bits and bobs necessary to make it Player Flyable (tm). If you haven't done this, you'll have to root around for the needed cockpit in the CA downloads; it's not very hard to find.
As an Extra Added Bonus (tm) just because I like you all, you get not one, not two, but THREE brand new hangar screens!! One is a 'generic' MiG-23, and the other 2 are skin-specific for these new Algerian ones. Instructions are in the "To Install" section down below.

SF2 MiG-23BN "Flogger-H" Algerian Air Force Skin Pack 8/29/2025
-For SF2 =ONLY= (Full 4/5 Merged Recommended)
Here 2 new skins for the stock 3W MiG-23BN "Flogger-H", as used by the Algerian Air Force from 1980 until it's retirement around 2005. The first skin is a rebadging of the stock Syrian 3-tone skin (closest in colors and pattern), and the second is a later Sand/Dark Earth camo by Gerwin (adapted from his 1stGen release).
If you have made this plane flyable, and use the "read only main ini trick", you'll have to turn that off after adding these skins. See "Installation" for more details.
All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. The Serial numbers are historically correct for this type of aircraft (23BN). You'll have 24 of them, and both skins use them. I've assigned it to the squadron known to operate this model. The skins remain in bmp format, in "3W Rez" (512x).
When on the Loadout Page, you'll see:
Camo 1 -
27e Escadron d'Attaque (QJJ)<1979
Camo 2 (Sand/Dark Earth)
27e Escadron d'Attaque (QJJ)<1990
As you can see, there is an active start date (as listed in the texture set ini) and will luck it will turn on in 1979, and then will switch in 1990. This is a 'best guess' as to the year of the switch; research has turned up no data.
I have included a modified data and loadout ini. The data ini gives the aircraft some "hardening" (via aluminum armor), and the loadout ini adds the drop tank for all missions. I've also included a new pilot figure, "Red7001". The canopy is also activated, it uses the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0 (zero).
What I have NOT given you, are the bits and bobs necessary to make it Player Flyable (tm). If you haven't done this, you'll have to root around for the needed cockpit in the CA downloads; it's not very hard to find (it's by Stary). However, I have given you repainted gunsight TGAs. They're in a very bright yellow, so as to make it easier to see for us Old Folks (tm). I've left original colored copies of all the gunsight tgas in the /cockpit folder, just in case you don't like the bright ones. You also get not one, not two, but THREE hangar screens!! One is a 'generic' MiG-23, and the other 2 are skin-specific for these new Algerian ones. Instructions are in the "To Install" section down below.

SF2 MiG-21bisB "Fishbed-N" Algerian Air Force Skin Pack 8/29/2025
-For SF2 =ONLY= (Full 4/5 Merged Recommended)
Here is a brand new skin for the stock 3W MiG-21bisB "Fishbed-N", as used by the Algerian Air Force from 1980 until it's retirement in the early 2000s. This is a completely new skin, created from a Home Grown Template (tm) . The aircraft is finished in late model Sand/Dark Earth with light gray undersides. The template IS included with this mod, and will also be uploaded separately.
If you have made this plane flyable, and use the "read only main ini trick", you'll have to turn that off after adding this skin, even though this does replace a stock one. See "Installation" for more details.
All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. The Serial numbers are historically correct for this type of aircraft (21bisB). You'll have 18 of them. However, while all the numbers are correct, they should be considered Generic in nature, as I could not find which squadron each served in. So, I just assigned it to one that was known to operate this model. The skin in jpg format, in 1024x1024.
When on the Loadout Page, you'll see:
140e Escadron de Chasse (Algeria)<1980
As you can see, there is an active start date (listing in the texture set ini) and will luck it will turn on in 1980 :) (it's also the same start date for the QJJ upon receiving the 21bis)
I have included a modified data and loadout ini. The data ini gives the aircraft some "hardening" (via aluminum armor), and the loadout ini adds the drop tank for all missions. I've also included a new pilot figure, "Red7001". The canopy is also activated, it uses the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0 (zero).
What I have NOT given you, are the bits and bobs necessary to make it Player Flyable (tm). If you haven't done this, you'll have to root around for the needed cockpit in the CA downloads; it's not very hard to find. However, I have given you repainted gunsight TGAs. They're in a very bright yellow, so as to make it easier to see for us Old Folks (tm). These are for the Paladrian cockpit, available here at CA.
