    1. Dassault Sambad & IAI Sa'ar (1958-1975)
       
      This skin pack for Thirdwire's stock Super Mystère B2 (Sambad, from the acronym SMBD) and Sa'ar (Tempest) covers every Sambad and Sa'ar in Israeli service from 1958 to 1975. It includes several skins for each type that reflect changed paintschemes, attrition, losses, replenishments and upgrades. The serial numbers are as real as it gets, but due to lack of reliable and/or complete information, some service dates might be wrong.
       
      The Sambad was the IAF's first supersonic fighter and also its first aircraft with an afterburning engine. On December 4th 1958, the first Israeli Super Mystères arrived at Hatzor's No. 105 Scorpion Squadron. When the J52-P-8A engine became available with the introduction of the A-4 Ayit in late 1967, IAF engineers suggested it replacing the Sambad's unreliable Atar 101G-3 engine. While not afterburning, the J52 was lighter and more powerful than the original engine, allowing for more ordnance and an extended range. Other modifications to the original airframe included an extended rear fuselage to accomodate the new engine (also anticipating and inspiring the 'barrel mod' on the Ayits) and two new hardpoints for the Shafrir 2 air-to-air missile. The first upgraded Sambad - now called IAI Sa'ar - entered service in 1969 and conversion was complete in early 1973. Only two years later, in March 1975, the Sa'ars of No. 105 Squadron were replaced with the F-4E Kurnass. The remaining Sa'ars were sold to Honduras in 1976.

    7. I got inspired by Ajudnair and Jean-Baptiste Mouillet excellent third party mystère IV. Not only their skin was beautiful but also realistic. It can be seen here: http://combatace.com...84-mystere-iva/
       
       
      For those who use Thirwire's Mystere IV, like me, i decided to make a skin of the same style, taking Paulopanz' beautiful E/C28 nice skin as base.
       
       
       
      Most of the work was done on the free open source program: GIMP
       
       
       
      Small skin presentation on youtube:
       
      Feel free to comment or request on combatace.
       
       
       
      P.S:
       
      For those who only have the non-flyable mystere IV, you can find flight models for Mystère, super Mystère, Vautour and Ouragan there, thank Paulopanz again:

      Installation:
      Just put the folder to your mod repertory. For SF2 It should be something like C:\user\my savegames\Thirdwire\SF2 or something like this. Have fun.
