F-CK-1 Ching-kuo EagelHead skin
by UllyB

November the 21th 2023/ver 1.0    
        ****************************************
 
The Taiwanese Ching-Kuo Fighter is developed and manufactured by the Aerospace Industrial Development Corporation based in Taichung. The aircraft is also referred to as the Indigenous Defence Fighter (IDF). The Ching-Kuo is an all-weather, multi-role fighter and is built in one-seater and two-seater configurations.
Ching-Kuo fighter programme
The programme to develop the aircraft, known as the An Hsiang or Safe Flight programme, started in 1982 with identification of the requirements for an air-superiority fighter. The rollout ceremony of the first prototype took place in December 1988, when the aircraft was named after the late President Chiang Ching-Kuo. The Ching-Kuo made its first flight in May 1989.
Ching-Kuo air superiority fighters are operational in the RoC Air Force of Taiwan (Republic of China) since January 2000 and the last of a total of 130 entered service in July 2000.
AIDC has developed an upgrade package which includes a digital cockpit, upgraded radar and countermeasures. BAE Systems supplied the new 32-bit digital flight control computer. Two F-CK-1 prototypes were upgraded to F-CK-1 C/D in 2006. The upgraded C/D aircraft made its first flight in October 2006. It was renamed as F-CK-1 C/D Hsiung Ying (Brave Hawk) in 2007. Other improvements in the upgrade package included increased internal fuel capacity, improved avionics, renovated electronic warfare capabilities and strengthened landing gear. Production of the C/D version began in 2009 as part of the $588m Mid Life Upgrade (MLU) programme.
AIDC will upgrade the initial 71 of 130 IDFs under the MLU programme. The first batch of six upgraded F-CK-1 C/D IDFs were delivered to the ROCAF in June 2011. The remaining 65 were delivered at the end of 2012.

SF2 B-57B Canberra, Early SEA Camo Skin Pack                 12/21/2023
= For SF2, Any and All =
* Full-5 Merged reccomended *
This mod is designed to be used with my recently uploaded B-57B Upgrade & Skis set. You can still use it, if you're familiar enough with added/editing inis. If not, you can find the Upgrade Pack at the following URL:
https://combatace.com/files/file/18162-sf2-b-57b-canberra-ini-skin-decal-update-pak/
A new Vietnam-era skin for the stock 3rdWire B-57B Canberra. This represents the 8th Bombardment Squadron of the 35th TFW as first deployed to Southeast Asia. The uppers are finished is standard 3-tone camo, with the unders in a 'light grey'. This was an unpopular paint job, and was replaced soon after with the standard Night Black (tm) unders.
All markings are decals, and have 24 100% historically correct serials, and their presentation on the tail, for the timeframe represented. Decal randomization is TRUE. As usual, they are marked with the star (*) to show their accuracy.
Also included, is a new(ish) Dual HVAR launcher, as requested (along with this skin) by CA member KiwiBiggles. It's a modified, aircraft specific version of the dual rack as used on the F-84 Thunderjet/Thunderstreak. It mounts the STOCK 3W 5" HVAR rockets. It has been edited to it's own name, and will NOT conflict with the T-Jet rack. A new loadout ini is included that pre-loads the Dual Rack for those mission taskings when it would be needed. This skin also includes it's own Hangar Screen. (You may need to edit the main B-57B.ini to add it. If you don't know how, contact me via PM or post in this announcement thread)
On the Loadout screen, for skin selection you'll see:
8th BS (Early Grey Unders)
On the drop-down menu
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. Please read them!
Good Hunting!

SF2 A-1H Skyraider (3W) VA-75 Skin Pack       1/11/2024
-For SF2, Full 4/5 Merged Reccomended-- must have access to the A-1H Skyraider in your mods folder(s)
This here is a new skin for the stock 3W A-1H Skraider, depicting VA-75 "Sunday Punchers" in approx 1962 aboard USS INDEPENDENCE in Southeast Asian waters.
Most markings are decals, excepting for the squadron color bands on the rudder. Through the magic jiggery-pokkery of Level 2 decals, the CAG color bands are also available when you select modex #500. The line birds have their correct markings. All serial numbers are 100% historically correct for this unit at this time period.
It should be noted, nothing is provided to make this AI aircraft flyable; you should have alread done that. This is just the textures and decals.
As is always reccomendified, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions.
Happy Landings and Good Hunting!

The RCAF have finally decided in 2023 to bought 11 MQ-9B SkyGuardian armed drones.
5 units will be based with the 8th Wing
5 units will be based with the 16th Wing
1 unit will be based with the 19th Wing
The serail numbers, plane numbers, plane designation have not yet been officialised. I dig down the drone designation within the RCAF and the next available number as for today is the CU-177. So i decided to give it the CU-177 designation. I also decided to give the the serials number 177001 to 177011 to match the RCAF serail designations. 
You will get the CU-177 skin in this package
Installation:
Copy the current pack objects/aircraft folder in your game GK_General_Atomics_MQ-9Reaper_Blk_30_ER aircraft folder.
Copy the current pack objects/decals folder in your game GK_General_Atomics_MQ-9Reaper_Blk_30_ER decals folder.
Copy the GK-MQ-9_Blk_30_ER.ini content to the game GK_General_Atomics_MQ-9Reaper_Blk_30_ER aircraft folder and change textureset number accordingly.
Copy the GK-MQ-9_Blk_30_ER_USERLIST.ini content to the game GK_General_Atomics_MQ-9Reaper_Blk_30_ER aircraft folder.
