    1. SF2 F-86A Sabre, 115th FIS, California ANG Skin Pack

      SF2 F-86A Sabre, 115th FIS, California ANG Skin Pack       6/9/2019
      -For SF2, Any and All (Full Merged Reccomended)
      This is a NEW skin for the F-86A Sabre. It is designed to be used on the SF2 KAW Sabres Pack, for the F-86A-5 available therein. The Sabres are to be found at the following URL:
      https://combatace.com/files/file/13604-sf2-korean-war-era-f-86-sabre-pak/
      Also included is a new data ini, with updated hit and collision boxes, and some meshes now correctly named. Honestly, I'd never noticed they were 'way off' until Mue's LOD Viewer! Please note, that Crusader's fix-its have already been applied to THIS versions' data ini. A backup copy of the original (2012) data ini is supplied, so as to lessen End User (tm) workload, and provide a safety net 'just in case'.
      This skin repesents the 115th Fighter Interceptor Squadron of the California Air National Guard from 1954 through 1959-ish.  The skin is in jpg format, and 26 all NEW serial number decals have been created for it.  While the serial numbers are historically correct for the A model, they should beconsidered generic in nature as they don't actually represent aircraft from this particular unit. However, at least 9 of these ARE actual aircraft used by the 115th; the rest =were= used by other CA ANG units. Decal randomization is TRUE. Squadron color markings are 'painted on' the skin maps. 
      On the skin selection menu, on the Loadout Page, you'll see:
      115th FIS, CA ANG (54-59)
      The SF2 "date switch" =IS= active on this skin. It will automatically be chosen for years of 1954 and later.
      As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. 

      Happy Landings!

    2. SF2 F-86E Sabre, 144th FIS, Alaska ANG Skin Pack

      SF2 F-86E Sabre, 144th FIS, Alaska ANG Skin Pack       6/5/2019
      -For SF2, Any and All (Full Merged Reccomended)
      This is a complete revamp of a 1stGen Sabre skin by Dave "USAFMTL" Slavins from June, 2003. It is designed to be used on the SF2 KAW Sabres Pack, for the F-86E-10 available therein. The Sabres are to be found at the following URL:
      https://combatace.com/files/file/13604-sf2-korean-war-era-f-86-sabre-pak/
      Also included is a new data ini, with updated hit and collision boxes, and some meshes now correctly named. Honestly, I'd never noticed they were 'way off' until Mue's LOD Viewer! Please note, that Crusader's fix-its have already been applied to THIS versions' data ini. A backup copy of the original (2013) data ini is supplied, so as to lessen End User (tm) workload, and provide a safety net 'just in case'.
      This skin repesents the 144th Fighter Interceptor Squadron of the Alaska Air National Guard from 1955 through 1957-ish, when their mission changed from Air Defense to Airlift.  The skin is in jpg format, and 26 all NEW decals have been created for it.  While the serial numbers are historically correct for the E model, they should beconsidered generic in nature as they don't actually repsent aircraft from this particular unit. Decal randomization is TRUE.
      On the skin selection menu, on the Loadout Page, you'll see:
      144th FIS AK ANG (1954-58)
      The SF2 "date switch" is NOT active on this skin. You'll have to select this skin for your flightmates by hand. However it is easily added by a simple text edit.
      As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. 

      Happy Landings!

      This is skin for Nanchang Q-5 Fantan,  
      I hope that I succeed to make an approximate correct look of green and white paint, none of this would be possible without the original templates from our friend yakarov79, a great credit goes to him, thank you.

    4. A-1H VNAF

       
      Trâu nước điên
      VNAF A-1 Skyraiders
      Also known as "The Crazy Water Buffalo"
      Hi Rez skins 
      To be used on the stock 3W SF2 A-1H Skyraiders
       
      My next set and final set for the A-1H/J Skyraiders, is the one I  just KNOW you have been waiting for in breathles anticipation !! Oh you giddy young things !! Yes these are the VNAF versions of the Skyraider. 
      The contents are as follows :-
      83 SOG 
      514 FS
      516 FS
      518 FS
      The 514 skins are just a rework of KULBIT80's skin and decal set, I have just updated the skins , the other 3 Squadrons are all new decal sets, and reworked skins, 514's skins are overall grey, 516 & 518 are pretty much standard USAF 3 tone over grey schemes with the usual over the top Vietnamese markings, SOOOOO TACTICAL !! The lack of tail markings on the 516th airframes is correct they just didnt 'ave 'em so there !! I have done the 518th skins as slightly earlier ones so I could do the snazzy white super tactical and camo friendly cowling bands, I have put anti glare panels on these skins even though in reality they didnt have them, but I thought the looked a bit odd like that so anti glare are us deal with it !! harharharhar finally the 83 SOG scheme.....I mean WOW...Really !! hyper tactical or what !! they do look we snazzy though eh chaps !! these aircraft carried no national markings except for the fin flashes, I know the reasons elude me too . 
      Anyhow as with the previous skins I have done everything is all inclusive AT NO EXTRA CHARGE mind you !! 
      All the usual shout outs to all and sundry, youre all groovy froods and you rock !!
       
      Now what are you waiting for, get into your Spad and go kick some Commie bottom !!! and of course, as always ENJOY !!!

    5. A-1J USN

      SPADS !!!
      A-1J Skyraiders of the US Navy
      Hi Rez skins 
      To be used on the stock 3W SF2 A-1J Skyraiders
       
      Continuing my series of Skyraider skins, these ones are for late mark Spads, of the US Navy.
      Included are :-
      VA-25 "Fist of the Fleet" 2 different skins from 2 consecutive cruises the first on USS Coral Sea, and the secon on USS Midway
      VA-115 "Arabs" again 2 different skins, both on the same tour of duty on USS Kittyhawk, the second set are a rework of Wrench's original experimental camo scheme, again mine is not 100% accurate, but I think it conveys the general idea. Only 2 or 3 Airframes were actually painted in this scheme, but it was just easier to do all of the squadron in it, the scheme was an experiment, which was found to be non beneficial, and in fact a bit of a problem for deck crews whilst operating at night or in bad weather, so it was dropped , however it does look pretty cool, the aircraft had only very basic markings and I have tried to replicate this with these skins, the other set of  "ARABS" are in the standard Grey/White scheme.
      VA-145 "Swordsmen" aboard USS Intrepid 
      VA-152 "Friendlies" on the USS Oriskany and they were called the Friendlies at this time NOT the Black Aces, or the Fighting Aces, the Name is correct for the Time period, the Squadron I believe are now known as the Mavericks !!
      As with all my previous uploads, everything you need is in the package ( obviously you need the aircraft in the first place hahahaha ) Again I will give the Gypsies warning about the Data.ini, make sure you DO use it , or you WILL have clipping issues !!!
      I will also say, as mentioned my my friend Mr Wrench, these are not 100% completely new , shiny, you cant bend it, built from the ground up , skins, but rather total reworks of skins that are already available ( in most cases) Hopefully I have improved on previous and older ones, and I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed doing them for you all !!
       
      All the usual shout outs ( you know who you are !! ) 
       
      As always ENJOY !!!!

    6. A-1H USAF -for SF2V A-1H

      SPADS , HOBO'S & ZORRO'S 
      Also known as the A-1/AD-6 Skyraider
       
      For the stock 3rd Wire SF2:V A-1H Skyraider
       
      Continuing on from my previous uploads and reworks of USN and USMC Skyraiders, I present to you, for your delectation, and enjoyment the next in my rework of our beloved mud moving , snarling, piston powered , and rather handsome USAF Versions , I have made 3 Camouflage versions of the Aircraft from the 1st SOS, 22nd SOS, and 602st SOS of the 56th Special Operations Wing .
      22 SOS is in the Zorro scheme of Camo over Nite, I am aware that not all the aircraft in the Squadron were painted this way, however rather than making a split squadron, the whole load of 'em are nite unders, if ya don't like it....well tough !!  1 SOS is done in the more usual "day" scheme, but is very dirty drab and scratched up, whilst 602's airframes are reasonably clean ( for a skyraider) And a slightly lighter colour tone with the more usual Light Grey unders.
      I have tried to get the numbers and nose art matched up on the different squadrons airframes, and yes I am aware that some of the pilots flew on different squadrons and took their aircraft's name with them, so some of the ones I have portrayed, may appear with different tail codes etc, depending on your sources.
      I have pretty much reworked the camo schemes from scratch, and I hope that these beautiful aircraft meet your approval .
      Everything you need is in the package decals, sounds, pilots , weapons etc. etc. etc. also the Data.ini for the aircraft.........Be advised, you MUST use this Data.ini with these aircraft, firstly because I have enabled the Chaff dispensers, and secondly, it kills off the clipping issue that started me off on this project in the first instance................YOU HAVE BEEN INFORMED AND WARNED!!
      That I think covers it, all the usual shout outs to Wrench and Nyghtfall for their Templates, which are instrumental in these 'ere skins And to anyone else who had anything to do with the original , aircraft, cockpits, and any other stuff that I have to be politically correct about .
      Please feel free to leave feedback ( it is much appreciated) also if you find any glitches that may have slipped by my (cough) quality control (cough) department, please give me a shout so I can attempt to fix it.
       
      Get out there, move some mud, scare the bejesus out of the baddies in Injun country, and above all ENJOY !!!

    12. SF2 Atlas Impala Mk.II Early Skin "Fix It"

      SF2 Atlas Impala Mk.II Early Skin "Fix It"        3/7/2019
      = For SF2, Any/All (Full 5 Merged RECCOMENDED!) =
      This is a "repair" package for the recently released ATlas Impala Mk.2 by Marcfighters.
      This kit ONLY contains the skin folder "Early". The fuselage and wings have been repainted
      and had the necessary panel lines redrawn to remove the painted on national markings. They
      are now all decals, which are stock in all 3W games (merged).
      The Entire Aircraft package, available below is also getting this patch applied, so if
      you've downloaded the aircraft already, this fix-it kit for YOU. 
      If you haven't downloaded the aircraft, what's stopping you??? :)
      Below is the URL for the full aircraft package (updated)
      https://combatace.com/files/file/16939-sf2-atlas-impala-mkii-by-marcfighters-v2/
      As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the
      rest of this readme for it's install instructions.
      Happy Landings!

    13. VA-34 A-4B Skyhawk Bay of Pigs

      During the 1961 Bay of Pigs Invasion VA-34 A-4B Skyhaks from the USS Essex flew a CAP/ escort mission with the intention of protecting the Rebal A-26 Invaders but due to a timing cock up were an hour late and missed engaging the Cuban T-33A fighters.  They also flew multiple reconnaissance flights over the invasion beach throughout the incident. Due to President Kennedy insisting that there be no proof of US involvement the Skyhawks had their USN markings painted over. There are no photos of these aircraft and very few of VA-34 during that time period so I have based these skins off the only photo I can find specifically of VA-34 during the Bay of Pigs Invasion as well as one from later that year. These photos are of aircraft that did not have their markings painted over however. There is an alternative skin based on a drawing Statos posted which I think makes a way cooler looking Aircraft but is unlikely to be historically accurate.
      Credit goes to TW, Stratos and Nyghtfall.
      If you do create a Bay of Pigs USN A-4B v FAR T-33A remember the A-4B could not carry the AIM-9 at this point and Skyhawks operating over Cuba just had two wing drop tanks plus thier 20mm cannons. Change the Aircraft role from 'attack' to 'fighter' in the A-4B_data.ini file if you want better AI performance from your wingmen.

    22. KC-135 Skinpack 2: Post Vietnam (1975-1987)

      USAF KC-135 Skinpack 2: 1974 through 1987
      This skin pack will feature skins for all USAF KC-135 users from 1974 until 1987. This includes the Air National Guard and Air Force Reserves as the aircraft became available.
      Requirements: any version of Strike Fighters 2, and the KC-135 mod found here
      Installation:     
              first, get the Mirage Factory C-135A/B and KC-135A/E/R 1.0 from the above link (if you dont have it already)
              then unzip this to the mod folder, allowing overwrites.
              
      Known Issues:
               this is meant as eye candy. unfortunately, SF2 doesnt support air to air refueling so the best to be done is set up a recon mission and then park it in an orbit.
              Also, Dels C-130 pit does not line up with the model very well. it is included mainly so that it can be player selected (i had to test it somehow).
              In the skins with ADC tgas, loading more than 8 aircraft on a mission will produce irregularities (like only the front half of the camo showing). So far I have not seen more than 8 on a ramp, and it is doubtful you need to load more than that in one area for a mission. Just be warned if you throw all 16 in at once.
              BTW, this thing is huge!!! over 3 1/2 GB size
      So, Whats Included?:
          Skins with at least two examples from every USAF unit to fly the KC-135 from 1974 - 1987, with separate skins for Active Duty and reserve forces
          Colors represented include silver lacquer, ADC gray, and Shamu dark grey over medium grey.
          Skins from 1987 have a mix of Shamu and ADC grey colors as tga. Same skin, two different paint jobs
          Skins from 1983-1985 have a mix of ADC grey and silver lacquer colors. Skins from the 1970s are all silver lacquer and minimal tail markings
          Engines on the A models were adjusted to produce heavy smoke at max thrust. Burning water, just like the real thing.
          Drogue to simulate refueling probe equipped aircraft. Added in loadout screen
      Credits-
          Bpao- original aircraft and skin
          Dave- original aircraft lead
          Dels- cockpit used to make flyable
          daddyairplanes- research, ini edits, tga work, skin refinement

    23. KC-135 Skinpack 3: Late 1980s

      USAF KC-135 Skinpack 3: Late 1980s
      This skin pack will feature skins for all USAF KC-135 users from the late 1980s. This includes the Air National Guard and Air Force Reserves. Many of the skins serials and nose arts are the same as in ODS, which the aircraft would participate in a few years after this period. This also represents the era that the Shamu scheme became more common and that nose art made a comeback on USAF aircraft.
      Requirements:
      any version of Strike Fighters 2, and the KC-135 mod found here
       
      Installation:     
              first, get the Mirage Factory C-135A/B and KC-135A/E/R 1.0 from the above link (if you dont have it already)
              then unzip this to the mod folder, allowing overwrites.

          Skins with at least two examples from every USAF unit to fly the KC-135 during the late 80s, with separate skins for Active Duty and
          reserve forces
          Colors represented include ADC gray, and Shamu dark grey over medium grey. Shamu is added as tga for a mix within each skin
          Engines on the A models were adjusted to produce heavy smoke at max thrust. Burning water, just like the real thing.

    24. KC-135 Skin Pack 1: Operation Desert Storm

       
      This skinpack adds in historical aircraft as used in Desert Storm for the A, E and R models KC-135. It is as close as possible with unit markings and features several nose arts.
          Included
      Skins and decals for KC-135A/E/R models
      Cockpit and ini edits to make player flyable

          Required
      you will need the original KC-135 pack available here
       
          Installation
      download and install the above mod per its instructions
      unzip this mod, then install new mod folder categories to your mod folder (Aircraft to aircraft etc)
      allow overwrites
      fire up game, take off and go pass gas
          KNOWN ISSUES
      This was originally an AI only aircraft. I added Dels C-130 pit so that it was flyable and I could check my work. That said, it is best to not fly from the cockpit as the Hercules' window frames don't match with the Stratotanker's windows.
         UNIQUE FEATURES
      As with most of my large aircraft mods, the skins are tga based. this means if you look for a Baby Shamu skin, you will only see a plain grey skin. When you fire it up in game, you will see a mix of ADC Grey and Baby Shamu.
      AT THE START OF EACH SERIAL NUMBER IN THE DROP DOWN IS A LETTER, (a) FOR ADC Grey WITH FULL COLOR AND (s) FOR THE CAMO'D Baby Shamu SCHEME WITH SUBDUED MARKINGS
      Credits
