This goes under the double header since VFA-195 is currently transitioning to the F/A-18E but so far no newe on what the CAG jet may look like so after a request made this based on one of the current schemes (or last one).

A-TEAM SF-2 RAF Buc repaint
 
You need the A-TEAM 'BuccaneerS2B' model (an alphasim SF-2 porting) at ther site, to use this skinpack.
 
 
All credits for the plane are for A-TEAM.
 
I updated and reworked their skinpack and original SFX skin, too.
 
 
The RAF '70 line UP is here with: 12, 15, 16, 208, 216, 237 Squadrons.
 
 
Serial numbers (76) are historic but not divided by each squadron, because the planes very otfen change unit, so I put them togheter, deleting those belonged to RN only.
 
 
I'll wait for Volker's Buc better flyng these. I hope You too.
 
 
Enjoy.

****457th TFS/301st TFW 'Spads' Skin Pack****
 
You have downloaded a little repainting job for two aircraft, including the first skin I ever did. These are meant and intended for the stock ThirdWire models of the F-105D_66 and F-4D_78.
 
These are skins for the 457th TFS/301st TFW, based out of Carswell AFB, right across the lake from my childhood home. I saw both of these aircraft fly over my home more often than I care to count. They are an Air Force Reserve unit. From Vietnam to 1981, they used the F-105D and then made the transition to the F-4, using the D-model first. Later, they would use the E-model Phantom, but only for a few years before finally converting over to the F-16C. Today, they operate the F-16C Block 30 and have seen service in Iraq and Afghanistan.
 
Read the README for installation instructions.

Replacement texture for "Warbirds" F-4E_86:
 
After I'd uploaded it, Dave noticed the very tip of the nose and the pitot tube were painted incorrectly.
 
This replacement f-4e_5.bmp will fix that, adding the black at the very tip.
 
Instructions for use (as no readme is included) A screenshot can be seen in this thread:
 
http://combatace.com/topic/62412-phantom-tail-markings/page__view__findpost__p__474058
 
Unzip to a tempfolder or dessktop or where that's easy to find.
 
Then, simply copy/paste the f-4e_5.bmp into EACH of the 3 skin folders (377,378,379) Allow for the overwrite.
 
that'll fix ya' right up!
 
sorry for the slight incovience! And thanks to Dave's much-sharper-than-mine eyes.
 
Enjoy!

Royal New Zealand Airforce DH Venom Skin
 
For use with the SF2 DH Venom by Paulopanz found here http://combatace.com...11004-dh-venom/
 
Instillation: Place files in apropriate location and allow to override (adds correct RNZAF years to Userlist.ini)
 
History: Venoms were lent to the Royal New Zealand Air Force by the RAF to supplement the RNZAF’s Vampires and were used in the Malayan Emergency where they operated by No. 14 Squadron.
 
UPDATED 31/01/11 RAF letters added to wing tip tanks after Pasko helped me out with the mesh names. However there is a small bit of bleed through on the bottom of the tanks from the decal. Because of this there are two folders in the download: One with the wing tip decals which is historically accurate. And one without the decals if you can’t live with the bleed through lol. You choose.
 
 

Based off a real airplane this represents an Iranian camoed Aggressor NSAWC Tomcat
 
Drop in the F-14A folder and go fly.
 
ONLY for the Mirage Factory F-14A

Please read update below if you have installed Jan 2011 Patch, Update......
 
A fictional skin for ThirdWire’s SF2 F-4M so you have to have ThirdWire’s SF2 F-4M in game or it will not work.
 
Just copy into your F-4M folder, stock folder, will only work in ThirdWire's F-4M Folder. Uses stock lods, decals and weapons by Thirdwire.
 
Thank You to TK and Thirdwire for the games.
 
To CombatAce for a place to upload and download files.
 
Warning, again if you do not have ThirdWire's SF2 series games with an F-4M, the skin will not work.
 
James Fox.
 
21/01/2011 Update;
---------------------------
Warning,
 
If you have not patched to Jan 2011 and do not have a game with Thirdwires F-4M, or you have not downloaded my skin, then this will not work and you do not need to do this.
 
 
This is a fix-up for my RAF Desert skin. All you have to do is copy and paste this F-4M folder into you Thirdwire Aircraft folder. It will prompt to overwrite, let it, it should not effect anything but correct a folder naming conflict.
 
Thirdwire has released a new skin of their own to the F-4M folder with the Jan 2011 Patch which has the same name as my Desert skin. So I have renamed my Desert skin and included the correction to add Thirdwires new skin as it should be.
 
Skin Folders should look like this when you are done;
 
DESERT
RAFCAMO1
RAFCAMO2
 
Plus the F-4M configuration file which I have also corrected to correct my error.
 
Sorry for the inconvenience but I should have known better and not followed Thirdwires naming conventions.
 
PS, I have included a little decals edit which allows stock serial numbers to be shown on Thirdwire F-4M models fuselage only.
For some reason Thirdwire has not included them on the fuselage, they are only on the underside of the wings.
 
Thanks to TK, Thirdwire and CombatAce.
 
James Fox.
