    7. VFA-136 CAG 2011

      This is a skin depicting the CAG jet of VFA-136 during I believe 2011 or so. Since I'm going off of a few reference shots (thanks to Svetlin for a handy reference file) it is the best I can manage with what I have, so it should  be close enough.
      Simply add to the FA-18E_BlkII folder and go fly. Name on the dropdown menu is VFA-136 CAG 2011

    19. T-45A Goshawk skins

      This is a replacement for the T-45A Goshawk skins that have been around for nearly 10 years. I felt they needed to be updates. These skins have
      flaws that are inherent to this aircraft, so I apologize. Other than that, I hope you guys enjoy...
      Regard, Pappy
       
      Any questions or concerns can be sent to me here...

    20. Su-32 34 Skin Packs

      This is a set of Camouflages for Su-34
      THIS IS ONLY TEXTURE SET and decals, There are no other files in this pack. This set is for persons who have this aircraft. I know that it is difficult to find this model last times. Do not ask me how to get it cuz I do not know. I got this aircraft many years ago and do not know its fate and why it is not available.
      I tried to make the skins as accurate as possible. But some details missed because of the limitations of the model, some details i was too lazy to tune. As all old aircrafts, it has ugly UV map which is hard to use for texturing. Some early cammuflages can be not accurate too much to real aircraft for some details. There is a long "antiblick" strip over white nose on one photo, and the same aircraft has short strip before gray nose at another photo, one aircraft has "no step" dashes, anothe haven't it etc. Сoloration is often very different from year to year and sometimes from an aircraft to an aircraft from the same serie.
      If you ask me why there is a chaos in a decal folder, the answer is that there is a chaos only for a first look ;) I used decals from NATO fighters pack and all decals on places which in that pack. I do not like doubles and i do like in my Mod folder. That is why decals not in one folder.
      Skins was drawn based on outlines by Mariusz Wojciechowski and real photos.
      http://www.mariwoj.pl/

      NEW SKINS:
      Prototype Su-32 1993
      Prototype Su-32 1995
      Le Bourget 1997
      Russia_1 - Standard modern colors
      Russia_2 - Standard modern colors with "No Step" marks
      Serial Su-34 2006
      OLD SKINS
      Aubergine 2011 - old gray skin from pack below looks too black in game. i tuned it and made some decals.
      Aubergine 2012 - same with color tunes and some different decals for 2012 with "No Step" marks
      ===========
      BACK UP you original Su-34  folder first.
      installation: unpack and copy to your installed Su-34 folder. Be sure to overwrite the decals folder. It is very important! There is a fix for the  UV grid of the original model, cause of which the tail had a reflection of the another. All other decals like numbers are not changed and ruins nothing if you overwrite. If you didnt changed them youself.
      ===========

      I used these files:

    21. MiG-29AC_Set_of_2_Ukrainian_SKINS_Digital_and_Postsoviet.7z

      This is a set of Camouflages for Mirage Factory Mig-29A and C. Firstest in Ukraine ever and lastest but not least.
      History:
      At the beginning of 1991 it became clear that Soviet Russia would not be able to retain Ukraine under the occupation more. The grip of the communist beast has dramatically weakened.
      Patriotic-minded technician crews began to paint over the red stars with a green colour and atop of it the blue Ukrainian Shield with Trident.  First MiGs which changed the aggressor's stars to Ukrainian marks was at Crimea Belbek. It was yellow trident in a blue circle and  blue circles and a big yellow dot in it at wings.
      August 24, 1991 was proclaimed the independence of Ukraine. Soon, officially, new insignia, a square shield with a trident and yellow circles with blue big dot in them were approved. All MiGs  got new identification marks and shields for the tails. Soon they got new camouflages and was recolored in gray-blue scheme and gray-grean Ukrainian scheme.
      ====================
      In 2011,  MiG-29Cs were upgraded to the MU1 version. The main task of the upgrade was giving the aircraft ability to load and use Kh-29 missile. MiG-29MU1s  got new avionics, new weapons and new Digital Camouflage. At 2012 the Ukrainian air force received this aircrafts.
      ====================
      Installation:
      1. Unpack files to your mod folder as you do usual with mods. You need installed Mirage Factory Fulcrums. CHECK YOUR FOLDERS! It can be different then mine.
      I done skin with "official" tail Shield for MiG-29A and  with "non ufficial" rounded shield for MiG-29C to both aircraft appear in game with different shields, cuz in real, some times both variants was at Ukrainian Sky.
      2. You need to correct start year in your NATIONS.INI if you have it in mod folder:
      [NationXXX]
      Name=Ukraine
      DisplayName=Ukrainian Air Force
      Alignment=FRIENDLY
      ...
      StartDate=1991
      3. Add in your MiG-29A_USERLIST.INI if you have n't it yet
      [Ukraine]
      ServiceStartYear=1991
      ServiceEndYear=2000
      Availability=RARE
      and in your MiG-29C_USERLIST.INI
      [Ukraine]
      ServiceStartYear=1991
      ServiceEndYear=2040
      Availability=COMMON

      In reality, more common aircraft for Ukrainian Air forces is MiG-29C type 9-13 (Hunchbacked). MiG-29A type 9-12 is very rare. If you fly Baltica's "Orange Revolution 2004" i recommend to change some MiG-29As to C in his company files.
      White numbers of Digital Camo is not correct to real aircrafts. Must be white numbers and blue outline and white numbers and yellow outline. If you have anough health to outline all needed decals do not stop youself. I haven't. Please  make this work if you want and share it. You can fix skins, improve, redraw and use in your packs.
      ====================

      Skins was drawn based on outlines by Mariusz Wojciechowski (http://www.mariwoj.pl/) and real photos on a MiG-29 Template from CombatACE site.
