A new historical skin and decals for F-4C_67 Phantom II.
Based on Sundowner great template slightly modified removing and/or deleting some markings and stencils and adding some more weathering here and there.Also I changed the colors of the belly aux doors and the area of the BLC .
Started as a tribute to my friend (then) Capt. Gene Korotky, flying with the Squadron during his tour of duty in 1968-69.
My original idea was to realize only SANDY BAY-BEE,the plane assigned to Capt. Korotky, and in some way I involved Paulopanz to help me with the decals; but the skill of Paulopanz are so high and Gene sent me so much pics and first hand refs that we decided to create a whole mod ...
CREDITS AND THANKS:
- Sundowner for is great work on the original template
- Paulopanz that create almost all the decals and improved those created by me and had the patience and will to teach me many things!
- Capt. Gene Korotky for all the references
ABOUT CREW NAMES:
We tried to add as more historically correct pilots names as possible, but it must be noted that crew names on the aircraft changed since the tours in Vietnam were for one year, meaning a constant changeover of personnel.

WHAT INSIDE:
The mod include a new skin and decals, a background file writed by Gene with info about the 12th TFW of which the 557th TFS was part and pics of the Squadron at the time of his 1968-69 tour of duty taken by Gene Korotky

TO INSTALL:
- As always all in main mod folder and that's all!
Good hunting

SF2 F-102 (V2K) Delta Dart Hawaii ANG Skin Pack                            5/22/2020
= For SF2 (Any & All) =
This is a new skin for the F-102 Delta Dart, by Veltro2K. It represents Darts as used by the 199th Fighter Interceptor Squadron, Hawaiian Air National Guard from 7 December 1960 until October 1976.
You can find the aircraft, if you don't have it already at the following URL:
https://combatace.com/files/file/9446-f-102a-delta-dagger/
This is an all new skin, built from Geary's template (thanks!), with 26 new serial numbers. Those numbers marked with the star (*) are 100% historical. All the rest should be considered generic in nature. Decal randomization is TRUE.
When in-game, you'll see:
199th FIS, Hi ANG (12/60-10/76)
On the skin/unit selection drop-down menu.
**Important! In order to eliminate confusion with the Razbam F-102, this main folder has been tagged as "F-102A_v2k". If yours in name differently, you may have to either rename you aircraft folder, or rename THIS folder to fit you personal naming conventions. Do NOT rename the folders in the Decals sub-folder. This will keep their specific pathways intact.**
As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them .... they can be accessed after unzippering. Please follow the 'usual instructions'. If you run into trouble, feel free to post the question, or PM me. 
Happy Landing!

= For SF2 (Any & All, Full-5 Merged Prefered) =
*You must have the F-4C_67 in you hanger to make use of this mod!!*
This is a reskinning of the stock F-4C_67 as used by the 199th TFS, 154 W of the Hawaiian Air National Gurad from 1976-1987, when they were replaced by F-15A Eagles.
A modified version of the stock skin, with added 'slimers' is used, along with 26 100% historical serial numbers. All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. The skin is the "standard" 3-tone SEA style. Also included are modified _data and _loadout inis, giving a landing light and Player Controlable (tm) canopy. The loadout ini has the (often missing) wing tanks added to all mission statements. The canopy operates with the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm) Shift/0 (zero). 
When in-game, on the "select skin" drop down, you'll see:
199th TFS, HI ANG (76-87)
This will assist you in selecting the skin. 
As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them .... they can be accessed after unzippering.

This is a skin/decal set for Phabulous Phantom. 
Basic modding skills are required to run this mod.  (copy/paste, mod folder structure etc.) 
Pack contains skins and decals representing all F-4D users amid Air National Guard units. Skins are made for stock F-4D_78. F-4D was used between 1977 -1990 in ANG and these skins are fitting in 13 years of service. 
Mostly all serial numbers are correct for specific dates and units. If you will find some errors please feel free to send correction notes.
No ini files for this as this is only skin sets. Just simply add skin folders to your favorite F-4D_78. Or create a new, specific one for ANG use. 
You will find that some aircraft wear kill marks as in real life. If you want to have your own kill marks you have to modify decal.ini file. 
To fully enjoy this skin set you need to have ThirdWire F-4D_78. 
 
All skins are done in 2048x2048 based on Sundowners and Ravenclaw's work. 
Brand new Bump files in 2048x2048.
All decals made by me. 
Enjoy.
Regards.

This is the so called "Kaiman" camo skin, which one east german L-410UVP light passenger and transport plane had.
 
L-410UVP-T Turbolet Kaiman skin
*****************************************************
This mod is made for SF2.
----------------------------------------------------------
I. History
The czech made L-410UVP light passenger and transport plane was developed
to replace the old AN-2 biplanes. After a first version, called L-410A, the soviet Aeroflot airline
demanded some changes, including better short take off capabilities. So the version L-410UVP was developed and widely exported in the COMECON states.
The east german air force LSK, purchased 12 planes in 1980. They used it as training airplane for tranport pilots and navigators and for transport tasks. Parachute missions were made with the subversion L-410UVP-T (t- stands for Transport).
VIP transport was made with subversion L-410UVP-S (s stands for Salon). Both versions were easy to discriminate. The T version had a black rubber plate behind the side door.

             Requirements
You will need the original aircraft available here
https://combatace.com/files/file/17262-sf2-dhc-1-chipmunk-pack/
otherwise, this should work in any version of SF2
Installation
unzip main folder.
Place objects folder in the objects folder of your chosen install.
place templates folder wherever you need to, in order to create more skins. templates are available in xcf for Gimp users and psd for Photoshop users

note: the patches layers are set to create a ribbed effect on the pertinent airfoils. they are set so that you should be able to use them with any other design

BRIXMIS History
 The British Commander in Chiefs Mission or BRIXMIS for short was a mission that used the legal ability of a certain number of British servicemembers to roam the
Soviet Zone of Occupation, generally known as East Germany. Reciprocity was enjoyed by the Soviets in the former British Zone of Occupation.
The airborne component of BRIXMIS flew out of RAF Gatow in Berlin. An observer rode in the front and took pictures of Soviet military activities and equipment within
a 20 mile radius of Berlin, flying under cover of "exercising the right to navigate within the flight corridors to and from Berlin".
Serials provided are in pairs for each period of time operated, but in one overall skin
WK303, WK587 from 1956-1966
WP850, WP971 from 1966-1974
WZ862, WD289 from 1974-1988
