Cold War Aircraft Skins

Español:
Esta es una skin para el A4-AR Fightinghawk basado en la pintura real del mismo. El A-4AR Fightinghawk es actualmente usado por el Grupo 5 de Caza (G5C) con base en Villa Reynolds, provincia de San Luis.
Esta skin esta hecha desde cero hasta inclusive las calcas, que debido a que no encontré en alta definición las hice a mano. Si hay algún dato que le de mas precisión a la skin siéntanse libres de hacérmelo saber para tener en cuenta en una futura actualización.
Créditos para Nyghtfall por las plantillas que utilicé a la hora de crear la skin, y para The Banidos Team por la aeronave (mod necesario para el funcionamiento de la skin).
Siéntanse libres de modificar la skin con la única condición de que me den el crédito necesario, ya que este trabajo me costo horas de trabajo.
Sin nada mas que agregar, suerte y éxitos.

This is a skin for the A4-AR Fightinghawk based on the actual painting of it. The A-4AR Fightinghawk is currently used by Grupo 5 de Caza (G5C) based in Villa Reynolds, San Luis province.
This skin is made from scratch, including the decals, which because I couldn't find them in high definition, I made them by hand. If there is any information that gives the skin more precision, feel free to let me know so I can take it into account in a future update.
Credits to Nyghtfall for the templates I used to create the skin, and to The Banidos Team for the aircraft (mod needed for the skin to work).
Feel free to modify the skin with the only condition that you give me the necessary credit, since this work cost me hours of work.
With nothing more to add, good luck and success.

SF2NA A-4C_65 Pack
= Tested in SF2NA, Full-5 Merged
This project started as a personal customization to improve historically the skins for the CVW-1 A-4C_65's Squadrons  aboard JFK in her maiden cruise.
So,I realize them basically to be used in the Northern Sabre 69 present in the SF2NA Expansion Pack.
The skins are based on the superb Nyghtfall's templates,so much of the credit will be deserved by him.
All the decals was done by me.
All the Bu.Nos are historically correct for all three Squadrons.

To Install:
As always raccomended,all in the relative folders in your game(s)
-----------------------------
Credits:
3W for the A-4C_65 model.
Nyghtfall for his  beautiful template
Me for the decals and the small improvements

------------
Know issue:

The only issue is common to all three skins: I collected all the Bu.Nos. assigned to all three Squadron, but was unable to associate the specific Modexes to some of them, so I'll be a bit licensing about this aspect

Esta es una skin para el A4-AR Fightinghawk inspirado en el idolatrado A-4P (B) Skyhawk de la gesta de Malvinas, famosa por ser el grupo de el capitán Pablo Carballo y el teniente Carlos Rinke. Además de su participación elevada en ataque a buques británicos.
Esta skin solamente está inspirada en la pintura de los A-4P Skyhawk usados en el 82, por ende se pueden observar ciertas libertades como un logo en mayor definicion o la marca de los buques hundidos que se hicieron en posguerra.

Esta es una skin para el A4-AR Fightinghawk inspirado en el Super Étendard de la Segunda Escuadrilla Aeronaval de Caza y Ataque, famosa por dirigir los ataques con los misiles AM-39 Exocet logrando hundir con los mismos a dos buques britanicos.
Esta skin solamente está inspirada en la pintura del Super Étendard, pero al tratarse de un avión totalmente distinto la skin busca parecerse a la pintura del Super Étendard  pero tratando de mantener la esencia del A-4AR.

Esta es una skin para el A4-AR Fightinghawk inspirado en el famoso A-4Q de la Tercera Escuadrilla Aeronaval de Caza y Ataque, que operaba en el principio del conflicto de Malvinas desde el portaaviones ARA 25 de Mayo.
Esta skin solamente está inspirada en la pintura del A-4Q, por ende tal vez haya pequeños detalles históricos que hayan sido pasados por alto. Además de ciertas diferencias en el diseño de el A-4AR que hacen que la pintura sea todavía mas modificada para que coincida con el mismo.

Español:
Esta es una skin para el A4-AR Fightinghawk inspirado en el A-4P Skyhawk sin pintar del Grupo V de Caza, mas conocido por su apodo "El Tordillo" debido a su similitud con el caballo. El Tordillo se hizo famoso por deshabilitar el HMS Argonaut y el hundimiento del Sir Tristam en el famoso ataque aéreo de bahía Agradable. El matricula C-222 era bastante divisible debido a su falta de camuflaje y este era a su vez uno de los rasgos mas destacables del mismo
Esta skin solamente está inspirada en la pintura del A-4P matricula C-222, sin embargo puede no ser exacto históricamente en algunos aspectos debido al modelo distinto de la aeronave.
Créditos para Nyghtfall por las plantillas que utilicé a la hora de crear la skin, y para The Banidos Team por la aeronave (mod necesario para el funcionamiento de la skin).
Siéntanse libres de modificar la skin con la única condición de que me den el crédito necesario. Seria un descaro decir que me costo muchas horas de trabajo debida a la sencillez del camuflaje en si, pero si tuvo laburo por mi parte.
Sin nada mas que agregar, suerte y éxitos.
 
English:
This is a skin for the A4-AR Fightinghawk inspired by the unpainted A-4P Skyhawk of Fighter Group V, better known by its nickname "El Tordillo" due to its similarity with the horse. El Tordillo became famous for disabling the HMS Argonaut and sinking the Sir Tristam in the famous Pleasant Bay air raid. The C-222 license plate was quite divisible due to its lack of camouflage and this was in turn one of its most notable features.
This skin is only inspired by the painting of the A-4P license plate C-222, however it may not be historically accurate in some aspects due to the different model of the aircraft.
Credits to Nyghtfall for the templates I used to create the skin, and to The Banidos Team for the aircraft (mod needed for the skin to work).
Feel free to modify the skin with the only condition that you give me the necessary credit. It would be cheeky to say that it cost me many hours of work due to the simplicity of the camouflage itself, but it did take work on my part.
With nothing more to add, good luck and success.

SLUFs of grey.
Simple skin pack with a few sets of skins for US Navy A-7E Corsair II. This mod covers late years of use. 
Basic modding skills are required to run this mod.  (copy/paste, mod folder structure etc.) 
It is designed for and works only in SF2 series.
To run this mod you need also access to TW lod files from SF2 Series.
I highly recommend creating a new aircraft - for example A-7E_83. I have added a data file that will add a new pilot and new SJU seat along with HUD inside the cockpit. Just an eye candy thing.  At the end of 1982, Navy SLUFs started to receive new seats and some minor upgrades in avionics. 
A-7E_83_Data will add a new pilot, new seat, make openable canopy and foldable wings. Adds landing light and removes Fuel tanks model objects from stations 2 and 7. As A-7 can not carry fuel tanks there. (you can use this remove_mod from a file on older Corairs also)
The rest of the data file is basically stock one. So still no proper loadouts, rails for Shrikes / HARMs etc. If there will be demand I can upload new highly modified ini files at some point in the future/near future. 
Skins cover the years 1983-1991 for the Atlantic and Pacific Fleet.  Decal set for 'Desert Shiled' VA-46 and VA-72 is slightly different than in the ODS-30AE pack. (it is downgraded so I recommend not messing with this - mixing with original ODS)
Pack contains skins and decals. I have included also decals from the previous pack for hi-viz SLUF. So perhaps you can skip this folder but to be sure you can simply overwrite it. I believe there are two more serial numbers for VA-81 /1986.
Skins sets are made in pairs - two squadrons for CVW for a specific year. 
Skin-set for 1986 VA-82 has one small 'bug' In 1986 they were painting bird flying through A in AJ tail code. But I could not find a clear photo of it. So I decided to go without a bird. This is subject to possible updates of the pack in the future. 
I could not find all proper BuNo / Modex but I am considering this as ongoing work in progress, so one day if I will learn something new there will be an update. Also, not all squadrons have CAG markings, sometimes i could not find info on markings...so I left it, again there might be an update if new info appears.
I believe that pack after unp[backing is around 1GB. So make some space for SLUF.
All skins, new bump maps, specular and decals are made by me. 
 
report bugs.
enjoy. 
Jarek Hereda.
 
P.S.
This is huge, a lot of copy-paste for me, all decals.ini, textur.ini, etc...So if you will find that one decal is not showing up or something...just check first - maybe there is some bug in *.ini file. No need to panic! Fix, post solution, etc... So others can benefit from your fix. 
I put a lot of effort and time, checked everything twice..still gremlins can appear. 
 
QUICK FIX!
I just uploaded an additional seat called - seat_SJU-8. This is the proper seat that is required by optional data.ini.

Simple skin pack with a few sets of skins for Navy versions of A-7 Corsair II - A/B/C/E and E_74.
Basic modding skills are required to run this mod.  (copy/paste, mod folder structure etc.) 
It is designed for and works only in SF2 series.
To run this mod you need also access to TW lod files from SF2 Series.
 *.ini files for loadout, avionics, cockpit, or aircraft data - not included.
Skins cover the years 1970-1982 for the Atlantic and Pacific Fleet.  The pack did not cover Vietnam War CVW deployments.
Pack contains skins and decals. I have included also decals from the upcoming pack for low-viz SLUF. This way it is simpler for me, all decals are in one place, save time, and will not harm anything. 
Skins sets are made in pairs - two squadrons for CVW for a specific year. 
I could not find all proper BuNo / Modex but I am considering this as ongoing work in progress, so one day if I will learn something new there will be an update. Also, not all squadrons have CAG markings, sometimes i could not find info on markings...so I left it, again there might be an update if new info appears.
I believe that pack after unp[backing is around 2GB. So make some space for SLUF.
 
All skins, new bump maps, specular and decals are made by me. 
Decals are made by me...but I think I have used one or two decals from MAKOTO pack (VA-192?)
 
report bugs.
enjoy.
