PAF F-16C Blk50/52 for SF2
 
This pack represents the F-16s of the PAF which are of the Blk50/52 standard.Some of these aircraft were new built airframes which were bought from the USA.The rest of the PAF's fleet of Vipers was upgraded and overhauled by the TAI(Turkish Air Industries).
 
This mod represents the following airframes:
Ac no.10803
Ac no.83703(Upgraded by TAI)
Ac no.85722
AC no.85728
Ac no.10905(Newly bought)
 
These textures will work with all of The Viper Team's F-16 models.But,they are specifically meant to be used with their Blk50/52 package.The skin in the folder named 'No.5 Falcons CFT' is meant to be used with the Single seat CFT(Conformal fuel Tanks) model.These skins were newly built and have nothing to do with my old F-16A Skin pack.In other words,If you are using these skins,UNINSTALL MY PREVIOUS PACK!These skins represent the following improvements:
 
-Corrected camo pattern
 
-Panel lines now clearly visible
 
-Real Aircraft serial numbers and Squadron Tails
 
Installation:
After unzipping,place the folders inside the 'skins' folder,into your desired F-16C aircraft folder(The folder present inside your Aircrafts folder).You must know at least know about the SF2 mods folder.
Note:If you do not know anything about the mod folder,the immediately stop the installation,go to the COmbatACE Forums,Go to the Strike Fighters 2 Knowledge Base and take a look at the thread explaining the Strike Fighters 2 mod folder mechanism.
 
IMPORTANT:
I HEREBY CLAIM NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY OF THE CHANGES THIS MOD MAY RENDER TO YOUR GAME(Even though it doesn't).IF THIS MOD IS INSTALLED,THEN IT IS DONE ONLY BY THE WILL OF THE USER AND I CANNOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS.INSTALL AT YOUR OWN RISK.(The mod is perfectly safe,but I still claim no responsibility just to be safe!)
If you like this file,then please rate it here at CombatAce.Constructive criticism welcome.

PAF F-16A for SF2
 
This mod represents the F-16A Fighting Falcon in use with the Pakistan Airforce Since 1982.
 
Overview:
Pakistan recieved her first F-16 in 1982.A letter of agreement for up to 28 F-16A's and 12 F-16B's was signed December 1981. The contracts, Peace Gate I and Peace Gate II, were for 6 and 34 Block 15 models respectively which would be powered by the F100-PW-200 engine. The fist Peace Gate I aircraft was accepted at Fort Worth in October 1982. Two F-16A and four F-16B were delivered to Pakistan in 1983, the first F-16 arriving at PAF Base Sargodha (now known as PAF Base Mushaf) on 15 January 1983 flown by Squadron Leader Shahid Javed. The 34 remaining Peace Gate II aircraft were delivered between 1983 and 1987.
Between May 1986 and November 1988,PAF F-16s have shot down at least eight intruders from Afghanistan. The first three of these (one Su-22, one probable Su-22, and one An-26) were shot down by two pilots from No. 9 Squadron. Pilots of No. 14 Squadron destroyed the remaining five intruders (two Su-22s, two MiG-23s, and one Su-25).[31] Most of these kills were by the AIM-9 Sidewinder, but at least one (a Su-22) was destroyed by cannon fire. Flight Lieutenant Khalid Mahmoud is credited with three of these kills.
 
The Mod:
This mod represents Five Skins,Two for the Aircraft credited with the kills on Soviet/Afghan Planes intruding Pakistan's Airspace.All the base textures were made by the viper team and were modified by me using Gimp 2.6.The textures include skins for:
 
No.14 Squadron
No.9 Squadron 'GRIFFINS'
No.38 Tactical Air Wing(Afghan Kill)
N0.38 Tactical Air Unit Modern
No.9 "GRIFFINS' (Soviet/Afghan kill)
 
Installation:
This mod is only compatible with the F-16 model made by The Viper Team,specifically
for their F-16C Block 25/30 pack.After unzipping PAF F-16A 1.0,place the contents of the zip file inside your objects folder located in your mod folder.When asked to overwrite,click yes.Important:You MUST have the F-16C Block25/30 by The Viper Team installed to use these textures.
Note:If you do not know anything about the mod folder,the immediately stop the installation,go to the COmbatACE Forums,Go to the Strike Fighters 2 Knowledge Base and take a look at the thread explaining the Strike Fighters 2 mod folder mechanism.

F-35A/B Lightning II updated templates
 
Here's my new template set for Klavs81's excellent Lightnings. I've redone the panel lines and added some extra features. There are some additional layers allowing you to switch between F-35A and F-35B versions (the skins are slightly different). The templates are saved as .psd.
 
I'd like to thank Klavs81 for the aircraft and original templates.
 
You are free to use these templates in any freeware project. No payware stuff is allowed to be made with them.
 
Happy skinning!

Egyptian Air Force TW F-16A Skins
 
Requires Strike Fighters 2 Israel!!
 
This is my attempt at the EAF F-16A.
It contains the later well known high-viz grey scheme that gives some of the Egyptian aircraft their unique flavor & the overall standard Egyptian grey scheme.
 
I could only find a handful of reference photos of the early A & B models so feel free to make any suggestions or any changes.
 
It is possible to just drop the skins directly in to your F-16A_Netz folder but I recommend you use them with the Updated F-16A Block 10 1.1 pack or similar TW F-16A packages in the downloads section.
 
 
Installation:
 
Drop the skins folder in your F-16A or what ever you have called your TW F-16.
Place the decals folder in the in your Objects/Decals folder.
 
Add the following to your F-16A USERLIST:
 
[Egypt]
ServiceStartYear=1982
ServiceEndYear=2020
Availability=COMMON
 
 
Hope you enjoy

Royal Norwegian Air Force TW F-16A Skin
 
Requires Strike Fighters 2 Israel!!
 
This is my attemtpt at the RNoAF F-16A.
It contains two overall grey skin sets & decals for the 331st 332nd Squadrons.
It’s not perfect so feel free to make any suggestions or make any changes.
 
Recommended for use with the Updated F-16A Block 10 1.1 pack or one of the earlier packages for the TW F-16A in the downloads section though it is possible to just drop the skin folders in you F-16A_Netz folder.
 
Instalation:
 
Drop the skins folder in your F-16A folder & place the decals folder in the in your Objects/Decals folder.
 
Add the following to your F-16A USERLIST:
 
[Norway]
ServiceStartYear=1979
ServiceEndYear=2020
Availability=COMMON
 
 
Hope you enjoy

Update:1.1
 
- Miss matched grey base texture corrected.
- Stray texture on port flap removed.

I really couldn't let the decals sit so I applied them to the Mirage Factory F-14D (06). Needless to say it will work on any Mirage Factory Tomcat, just drop in the appropriate folder and go fly.
 
Again used decals from (I believe) Gotrek Gurnisson

13 serial numbers included.
 
Instalation: Put to your Mods folder.
