      Iraqi Air Force No.9 Squadron MiG-21PFM
       
      Texture for Strike Fighters 2 Israel
       

      IrAF No.9 Squadron was the first unit to be deployed in Syria at the October 1973 War(Ramadan War).
      On Oct 6, 1973 at 16.00 the Squadron was put in alert and ordered to transfer from H-3/al-Wallid to Syria.
      The transfer was complete on Oct 7, 1973 by 16.40 hours with 10 MiG-21PFMs, pilots and ground personnel at
      Dmeyr and Tsaykal ABs. CO was Maj Namik Saadallah.
      The MiG-21PFMs arrived in Syria uncamouflaged and were painted with standard SyAAF colours during the night from 7 to 8 October 1973.
      IrAF MiG-21PFMs(serie numbers 702 to 705, 710 to 737)were from 1968 wired to use GP-9 gunpod. By the October 1973 War the missiles remained the standard R-3S.
      The first batch of the much improved R-13M1(Atoll AA-2D)arrived in Iraq in 1974.

    3. Colourful Korea - A skin and decals pack for Wings over Korea

      COLOURFUL KOREA
       

      Some assembly required.
       

      ---------------------------------------
      WTF is this ?
      ---------------------------------------
       
      This is a mod of a mod, it's intended to be used as a "patch" for Do335 Wings over Korea mod, itself a mod of the semi-avorted Korean Air War mod.
       
      Its intent is to add more units, more skins and, above all, more named planes to the Korean War.
       
      It's meant to be a patch, to keep the footprint low, making it useless by itself.
       
      It's also a backport from my own Korean War install meaning that some things might not be as originally intended (for instance, in my own install the SAAF 2nd Squadron uses slatted wings F-86F-10's, which is - mostly - historically correct, however a standard WoK install gives hard-wing F-86F-30 - of which they only ever had 1 - to 2nd Squadron).
      My focus on these releases is maintaining compatibility with the WoK campaign at the cost of "authenticity" (which would require something much more grandiose with at least 3 campaigns, which is a work in progress but not aimed for release - too much unclearable content being used).
       

      ---------------------------------------
      Why such a miscellaneous and crippled package ?
      ---------------------------------------
       
      Because I'm slightly burning out on the Korean War, that Real Life is coming back and that rather than having "finished" work rot away on a hard drive, I'd rather release what can be so others can enjoy or build upon it.
      Also because I'm too lazy to walk the minefield of varying licences involved in packaging someone else's content.
      And yes, someday I'll finish the Thunderflashes, if Paulo doesn't beat me to it.
       

      ---------------------------------------
      What are the pre-requisites ?
      ---------------------------------------
       
      - Some knowledge of Strike Fighters 2 mod installation procedures.

      ---------------------------------------
      What are the pre-requisites for the optionnal Razbam Banshee skins ?
      ---------------------------------------
       
      - A properly installed Razbam F2H-2 Banshee ( http://www.razbamsims.com/store/product_info.php?cPath=1_4&products_id=45 ).
       
      - Wrench's Korean Air War Tweak Pak for Razbam's Banshees ( http://combatace.com/files/file/14889-sf2-kaw-f2h-2-banshee-tweeks-pak-for-razbam-banshees/ ).
       
      - Do335 optional files for Razbam's Banshee (overwrite Wrench's tweaks).
       

      ---------------------------------------
      What is included ?
      ---------------------------------------
       
      - 4 new skins for Razbam's F2H-2 Banshee covering VF-172, VF-11, VF-22 and VF-62 for the Korean War (VF-22 used in campaign).
       
      - 2 reworked skins for South African 2nd Squadron F-86F Sabre, including 29 historical named planes (almost all of them) (one skin used in campaign).
       
      - 5 additionnal named Australian Meteor F.8, plus one modified decal for an existing one (used in campaign).

      - Anything already present in the pre-requisites.
       
      - Razbam's skin parts that I haven't redone.
       

      ---------------------------------------
      What's the required assembly ?
      ---------------------------------------
       
      - South African F-86F : None, overwrite when asked
       
      - Australian Meteor F.8 : None, overwrite when asked
       
      - USAF RF-51D Mustang : None, overwrite when asked
       
      - USN F2H-2 Banshee : Copy the following files (some may not be needed but in doubt do it) from an existing skin into the VF-11 and VF-62 skin folders (VF172 and VF-22 are ok)

      glossy_t.bmp

      Probable questions
      ---------------------------------------
       
      - Hey, why are you using an inefficient ZIP format when RAR5 and 7Z offer much better compression rates ?
       
      Because RAR5 breaks backward compatibility while using the same extension, leading to many confused people believing their download to be corrupted, leading to re-downloads, increased bandwidth consumption for CombatAce and overall a greater cost than a slightly larger archive and more headache for the player.
      Because 7Z requires to install a dedicated software while Windows does manage ZIP files natively, making it much easier for players.
       

      - Hey, why are your skin in a funky PDN format instead of a standard Photoshop PSD file ?
       
      Because, even with Creative Cloud, Photoshop can be too much money for some modders and I don't condone piracy.
      Because Paint.NET ( http://www.getpaint.net/ ), the software using PDN files, covers 95% of skinner needs, especially when using the PSD plugin ( https://psdplugin.codeplex.com/ ) to open PSD files (DO NOT use RLE compression when saving in PSD format though) and the Alpha Mask plugin ( http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/1854-alpha-mask-import-plugin-20/ ).
      Because Photoshop makes me jump through more hoops than Paint.NET to obtain some layer interactions.
       

      - Hey, there shouldn't be rivets here / Hey, that colour is slightly off / Hey, 202 actually didn't have his code painted on the wing / Hey, the decal seems to be bleeding etc...
       
      Yes, I'm probably already aware of all that, some of it can't be changed by anyone so you'll have to live with it, some of it is ignored to keep things simple and tidy, and finally many are ignored because I've reached the point where, at the moment, I'm not willing or able to do better.
      Feel free to add your own corrections and changes and either submit them to me for another release (you'd be credited of course), or release your own mod of a mod of a mod.
       
      - How do I contact you ?
       
      Well, PM me on CombatAce, when Real Life is involved it might be some month before I answer though, or you can mail me, but unless it's important, it's highly probable I'll just ignore it, sorry.

      Everything is either derived from Thirdwire's assets, those included in Do335 Wings over Korea mod - refer to the Readme of this pack for full details - or so trivial I can't be credited for them, with the exception of :
       
      F2H-2 Template ans Skins : Gunrunner (except the Bits and pieces layer, which is based on Razbam's skins).
       
      F-86F Template : Ravenclaw (90%), Wrench, The (9%), Gunrunner (1%), I mostly added a few details, a noise layer, reworked invasion bands, tail and nose decorations.
       
      VF-11 Squadron Badge, 2nd Squadron Badge, "Elyana" and "Bowl'Em Over !" nose arts for Australian Meteors : from my "decal vault", if it's yours, drop me a line and I'll credit you or remove/replace it.

    7. SF2 FJ-3 Fury USN Skin Pack

      SF2 FJ-3 Fury USN Skin Pack 2/19/2016
       
      = For SF2, Any & All (Full-5 Merged Reccomended) =

      (* note: VF-73 also was called Jesters, in approximately the same time frame!)
      Also, for VF-173, I've suppled tail and wing code letters (AD) for it's deployment aboard USS Randolph (6th Fleet); although the profiles (in the skin folder) MAY be in error, as the time frame overlaps that of the deployment about the Rosie.

    8. SF2 FJ-3 Fury Ini Update & Skin Pack

      SF2 FJ-3 Fury Ini Update & Skin Pack 2/19/2016
       
      = For SF2, Any & All (Full-5 Merged Reccomended) =
       
      This package contains an update kit for NAA FJ-3/3M Fury (v2), available at the following URL:
       
      http://combatace.com/files/file/14053-sf2-naa-fj-3m-fury-ver2/
       
      If you don't have it already, you'll need that mod first.
       
      Like many (ok, most) of the other Sabres recently updated, the following items have been changed, added to, adjusted and whatevered:
       
      updated hit boxes/collision points
      corrected mis-named nodes
      activated nose wheel steering
      Exported now "TRUE", years now match Userlist (I'd forgotten US Marines is a seperate nation!!)
       
      FM remains the same; I've just performed some very basic and small tweeks.
       
      A new skin is included for VF-191 "Satan's Kittens" (that I'd forgotten to finish from 3 years ago!!)
      All markings are decals, and the skin is in jpg format. The aircraft is finished in standard USN Gull Grey/White. I've supplied 18 modex number decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. The skin is basicly "blank", making it fairly easy to create other units, via decals.
       
      As always the standard, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. Please READ them!
       
      Happy Landings!

    12. SF2:E F-86F-40 Sabre, USAFE Skin Pak Part 2

      SF2:E F-86F-40 Sabre, USAFE Skin Pak Part 2 2/9/16
       
      -- For SF-2, FULL-5 merged, Reccomended --
       
      This mod is second skin/decal pack represening F-86F Sabres as used by the USAFE
      It can (and should) be applied to the recently uploaded "SF2:E F-86F-40 Sabre, USAFE Skin Pak
      available at the following url:
       
      http://combatace.com/topic/88262-sf2e-f-86f-40-sabre-usafe-skin-pak/
       
      It is adivsed you have Part 1 installed in the SF2:E mods folder first.
      In other words, like Part 1, this is a European-centric skin/decals/ini package only!!
       
      In this package are skins for Sabres from the 36th FDW, USAFE, in the mid-1950s ...
       
      22nd FDS (Red)
      23rd FDS (Med. Blue)
      32nd FDS (Green)
      53rd FDS (Yellow)
       
      The colors are those assigned to each squadron, and are the stripes applied to the vertical fin.
      This pack, along with the 461st FDS skin in part 1, will give you the full squadorn strength of the 36th Fighter Day Wing.
       
      All markings are decals, with the Tail bands at Level=1, and as such, will activate the Squadron Displayed Name on the Loadout Screen (these are stock units, listed in the game's SquadronList.ini). All skins use a "pool" of serial Serial and buzz numbers; while these should be considered 'generic' in nature, are for the variant depicted. Decal randomization is TRUE. All skins are in jpg format.
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them! Also, this mod pack is specificly designed for an SF2:E (Europe) install.
      It is HIGHLY ADVISED you read this document through, after unzipping, but BEFORE installing to you game.
       
      Just so we're clear on everything, again, this is for use in Europe (SF2:E) ONLY!!!
       
      Happy Landings!

    13. SF2:E F-86F-40 Sabre, USAFE Skin Pak Part 3

      SF2:E F-86F-40 Sabre, USAFE Skin Pak Part 3 2/11/16
       
      -- For SF-2, FULL-5 merged, Reccomended --
       
      This mod is third (and hopefully final) skin/decal pack represening F-86F Sabres as used by the USAFE.
      It can (and should) be applied to the recently uploaded "SF2:E F-86F-40 Sabre, USAFE Skin Pak
      available at the following url:
       
      http://combatace.com/topic/88262-sf2e-f-86f-40-sabre-usafe-skin-pak/
       
      It is adivsed you have Part 1 & Part 2 installed in the SF2:E mods folder first.
      In other words, like Parts 1 & 2, this is a European-centric skin/decals package only!!
       
      In this package are skins for Sabres from the 21st FBW, USAFE, in the mid-1950s ...
       
      72nd FDS (Red
      416th FBS (Med. Blue)
      531st FBS (Yellow)
       
      Almost all markings are decals, however the squadron nose & tail markings (colors & stars) are painted on. A fake "SqTail" decal is used to activate the Squadron Displayed Name on the Loadout Screen (these are stock units, listed in the game's SquadronList.ini). All skins use a "pool" of serial Serial and buzz numbers; while these should be considered 'generic' in nature, are for the variant depicted. Decal randomization is TRUE. All skins are in jpg format.
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them! Also, as this mod pack is specificly designed for an SF2:E (Europe) install,
       
      Just so we're clear on everything, once again, this is for use in Europe (SF2:E) ONLY!!!
       
      Happy Landings!

    14. SF2 F-86F-40 Sabre, USAFE Part 1 Fix-It Skin Pak

      SF2 F-86F-40 Sabre, USAFE Part 1 Fix-It Skin Pak 2/9/16
       
      This pack contains replacement "1" maps for the aircraft recently released in the
      SF2:E F-86F-40 Sabre, USAFE Skin Pak (Part 1), avaliable at the following URL:
       
      http://combatace.com/files/file/16039-sf2e-f-86f-40-sabre-usafe-skin-pak/
       
      It has been brought to my attention that I was in error in leaving on the anti-glare panel on the nose. This will replace them with 1 maps that don't have the A-G panel. My apologies!
       
      Simply unzip, and drop the supplied /Objects folder into the mods folder where you installed the original pak. Allow the overwrite.
       
      The Part 1 Package will also be getting updated with these corrected skins, for those that have not downloaded it yet. In other words, if you have them already, you won't need to download the whole package again, but should use THIS package
      Happy Landings!

    15. SF2:E F-86F-40 Sabre, USAFE Skin Pak

      SF2:E F-86F-40 Sabre, USAFE Skin Pak 2/7/16
       
      -- For SF-2, FULL-5 merged, Reccomended --
       
      This mod is to be applied to the "F-86F-40 Remod Pak", available at the following url:
       
      http://combatace.com/files/file/13788-sf2-f-86f-40-sabre-remod-pak/
       
      It is also advised, if/when installing both the original Remod Pak and these skins in SF2:E you =MUST= remove any/all other skins for non-European based users (such as JASDF, IIAF, EtAF). This will preclude any "oddites" that you might see over The Continent. See "Notes" below for more information on the included data and loadout inis.
      In other words, this is a European-centric skin/decals/ini package only!!
       
      In this package are skins for Sabres from the 50th FWB, USAFE, in the mid-1950s ...
       
      10th FBS
      81st FBS
      417th FBS
       
      also a remoded/corrected version of the...
       
      461st FDS, 36th FDW (corrected FDW)
       
      skin/decal ini with 'fixed' tail skin, and corrected Wing affiliation in the texture set ini. Also, a "Level 1 decal" has been added, activating the Squadron Displayed Name on the Loadout Screen. When installing, just allow the overwrite for this skin.
       
      I've been unable to run down exactly WHICH F-86F version was used by these squadron, so simply chose to use the F-40, given the time frame they operated them (1953-58-ish).
      As all the Sabres are mapped the same, can be used for any of the F-86F variants. However, if NOT using this on the -40 model, do =NOT= use the included data ini!! (but you can copy the changes, which are the 1950s pilot figure and 'steerable nose gear' callouts)
       
      Almost all markings are decals, with the exceptions of the nose color bands for the 50th FBW birds. Tail bands are decals, at Level=1, and will activate the Squadron Displayed Name on the Loadout Screen (these are stock units,
      listed in the game's SquadronList.ini). All skins use a "pool" of serial Serial and buzz numbers; while these should be considered 'generic' in nature, are for the variant depicted. Decal randomization is TRUE. All skins are in jpg format.
       
      As well as a slightly tweeked data ini, a new "USAFE only" style loadout ini is included. . REMINDER -- this loadout ini is =ONLY= for use by American Sabres (this version) as used in the SF2:E mods folder!!! Don't use it anywhere else!
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them! Also, as this mod pack is specificly designed for an SF2:E (Europe) install, PLEASE read the "Notes" section for important information on the 2 inis included!
      It is HIGHLY ADVISED you read this document through, after unzipping, but BEFORE installing to you game.
      Just so we're clear on everything, this is for use in Europe (SF2:E) ONLY!!!
       
      Happy Landings!

    16. Canadair CF-104 Starfighter skins

      Introduction
       
      I have made new skins for the Canadair CF-104 Starfighter. These skins show all the normal Royal Canadian Air Force/Canadian Armed Forces CF-104 schemes. Fuel tanks are included. Aircraft.ini files removing TK's CF-104 skins are also included.
       
      Skins
       
      The following skins are provided:
      CF-104 RCAF Natural Metal (Canada-based) RCAF Natural Metal (Germany-based) RCAF Natural Metal post-1965 (Canada-based) RCAF Natural Metal post-1965 (Germany-based) CAF Natural Metal (Canada-based) CAF Natural Metal (Germany-based)
      [*]CF-104_72
      CAF Natural Metal (Canada-based) CAF Natural Metal (Germany-based) CAF Green CAF Symmetrical Natural Metal (Canada-based) CAF Symmetrical Natural Metal (Germany-based) CAF Symmetrical Green
      [*]CF-104_76
      CAF Symmetrical Natural Metal (Canada-based) CAF Symmetrical Natural Metal (Germany-based) CAF Symmetrical Green CAF Symmetrical Camo



      I have provided 20 serial numbers. Anyone wishing to make additional serials will find PSD templates, and the RCAF font in the extra's folder. Use 22-point for pre-unification serials, 16-point for unification serials, and 48-point for buzz numbers.
       
      I have also included fuel tank templates which I have created.
       
      No instructions or files have been added to make the CF-104 flyable, however plenty is available on combatace.com on this subject. What works for the F-104G will work for the CF-104. I recommend making the aircraft ini files read only.
       
      Template used: http://combatace.com/files/file/5474-f-104g-photoshop-template/
       
      Changes
       
      Removed CAF Green from CF-104, removed scratches from all skins, adjusted specular, glossiness and reflection values on natural metal skins, added SM files to natural metal skins. Fixed decals to remove white borders.
       
      Installation Instructions
       
      Copy the contents of "ModFolder" into your mod folder. Over-write where necessary.
       
      Credits
      TK: SF2, stock CF-104 Bobrock - F-104 template Littlesmoke - CF-104 NATO skin (used for 'tracing' the camo skin) Paulopanz - natural metal skins advice

      If there are any problems, or omisions in the credits, please send me a PM.

      Here is a skin for the A4D (A-4A) Skyhawk from the Naval Air Test Center at Pax River, Md.
       
      Pax River was heavily involved in the early, and future, development of the Skyhawk as it replaced the Skyraider in the light attack and nuclear strike role on board carriers.

    19. NOTU A-4E Skyhawk

      My latest Flight Test scheme is an A-4E Skyhawk from the Naval Air Test Center, Ordnance Test Unit, China Lake, circa 1968.
       
      To install, simply drop everything into your MOD folder.
       
      I've included the VHF antenna Russouk2004 made for me, as the TW stock A-4E was missing it. It's already added to the jet via my enclosed DATA.ini file.
       
      Please add the following text to the SquadronList.ini
       
      [squadronXXX]
      Name=VX31
      DisplayName=VX-31 Red Devils
      Nation=USN
       
      I know Test schemes aren't for everyone, so for those that appreciate the old days of Flight Test, this is for you.
       
      Thanks again to Russouk2004 for the antenna, And Wrench for the assist with the aux fuel tank decal tip. And of course TK for the base files.
