Thanks you very much "Geary" for your templates !!

The 184th TFG operated F-4D's from 1979 till 1990 and was the F-4 Schoolhouse, operating 70 F-4D's in various paint schemes.
This includes (18) different F-4D's wearing the Euro Scheme variations which were seen on the flightline of McConnell AFB during the late 1970's and 1980's.
These were all verified by photos and do not represent a particular year but the entire F-4D Phantom tenure with the 184th. Being a schoolhouse, the 184th had Phantoms in every scheme, some Kansas Phantoms wore them all during their time at the unit while others did not.
Happy Phlying!

Creek Klaxon '86: Air National Guard Deployment to Ramstein AB 1986

Crews from many ANG squadrons rotated out over the course of the year, while three units sent three aircraft each to support the Zulu Alert interception mission. These airframes came from California's 194th FIS, Minnesota's 179th FIS and North Dakota's 178th FIS, all with air defense missions in the United States and all donating F-4D aircraft in the colorful Air Defense Gray paint scheme.
Also included in this mod is terrain mods to allow pairs take offs at Ramsein AB, and a mod to plug into NATO Fighters 5 so that you can fly the 1986 campaign with this unit (they were historically there during the timeframe)

SF2 Sukhoi Su-7BMK Indian Air Force Pack (3W)      1/8/2025
-For SF2, Any and All (Full Merged Recommended)
The pack contains 4 remade skins for the stock 3rd Wire Su-7BMK "Fitter-A" fighter-bomber as used by the Indian Air Force. It also includes Stary's cockpit, modified data, loadout and avionics inis. The aircraft is now Player Flyable (tm) As is to be expected on stock normally AI-only aircraft, a quick restore main ini is also included. It should also be stated, the 'game using' Main Ini, has been rendered "Read-Only", so as not to loose it's Player Flyable (tm) status. The included "make if flyable" parts can be used on any of the other Su-7s in the Game's Hangar. An SF2 version of my "box art" hangar screen is also included. The canopy opens/closes with the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0 (zero).
The Indian Air Force squadrons represented herein are:
No. 32 Sqdn "Thunderbirds"(Blu/Tan/Brn-71)
No. 101 Sqdn "Falcons" (NMF)
No. 221 Sqdn "Valiants" (Brn/Grn Camo -74)
No. 222 Sqdn "Tigersharks"(Blu/Grn/Brn <71)
The SF2 "date switch" is active, and will turn on the various skins on the year indicated above. 101 Sqdn, being NMF is the 'start at the beginning skin'. All markings are decals, with the exception of the national markings on #32 Squadron. All serial numbers (86 - all I could find) are 100% historically correct for this mark Fitter. Decal Randomization is TRUE. Unfortunately, I could not match serials with squadrons, so these serials are done "3rd Wire Style (tm)", being pooled for use on all 4 skins.
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. The Change Log List is also in the Notes section. Where possible, I've included the original 1stGen readmes for historical credits.
Happy Landings!

SF2 CAC CA-27 Avon Sabre: AURI & TNIAU Skin Pack       1/2/2025
-For SF2, Any and All (Full Merged Recommended)
This package contains 3 new skins/decals sets for the CAC CA-27 "Avon Sabre". After an almost 12 year delay, I'm finally completing a promise made in 2012. These skins are to be used on Zur's RAAF Sabre (version 2) found at the following URL:
https://combatace.com/files/file/11593-raaf-cac-sabre-mk32-version-2/
If you don't have it, now's a good time to get it!!! <gr>
This package adds the Indonesian Air Force and two (2) Malaysian Air Force skins. Textures are in jpg format, and all markings are decals. All serial numbers are 100% historically accurate for both countries. Decal randomization is TRUE for both. Also included are tweeked decal inis for the two RAAF skins, activating their displayed Squardron Name via my (patent pending) fake "SqTail" decal. The SF2 date switch is active for the RMAF skins; you'll start with the NMF and in approx 1974, will switch to the OD camo skin. On the Skin Selection drop down you'll see them listed as:
No.14 SKU,TNI-AU (<73)
No.11 Sqdn, RMAF (<68)
No.11 Sqdn, RMAF Camo (<74)
New(ish) Data, loadout and userlists inis are also included, due to some small changes I'd made in all of them.
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. The Change Log List is also in the Notes section.
Happy Landings!
