Add-On Aircraft

Mirage F-1CZ
This mod is dedicated to BPAO, nothing would have been possible without him.
South Africa began looking for a replacement for the Mirage III in 1971 and purchased a licence to manufacture the Mirage F1 and its engine, the intention being to produce up to 100 Mirage F1s. This license was however cancelled because of the 1977 arms embargo. The SAAF then bought 16 Mirage F1CZs and 32 Mirage F1AZs which were quickly delivered by Dassault before the embargo was implemented, with deliveries starting in 1975. Both the F1CZ and F1AZ variants of the SAAF saw action during operations in the Border War.
Covered unit :
N°3 Squadron
A big thank to all on Combatace and C6 forums that helped us solving issues we encountered.
Any omission in credits is totally unwanted, if I forgot somebody, let me know, I will correct this.
This addon is and will in all cases remain freeware.
Released under CombatAce Fair-Use terms.
Enjoy
The Mirage F-1 Team.

SIMULATORS, AND MUST NOT BE SOLD OR OFFERED FOR SALE BY ITSELF
OR WITH ANY OTHER FILES OR MODS.
*************************************************************
 
CHANGES:
I highly recommend to overwrite previous files decals/weapons/guns- or best is delete the old one and put new files.
YOU NEED TO DELETE OLD AIRCRAFT FOLDERS CH-53Cand HH-53C and HH-53B from Vietnam pack.  Many things were changed and as tested Overwriting may cause some problems...So delete old ones put new ones.
The rest (except Aircraft folders) are same can be overwritten without fear.
Small changes in ini files, corrections on fuel loadout, changes in cockpit ini. 
Small changes in skins. Also No longer fake weapon "no gun" is needed - thanks to The Trooper. He pointed small fix in data.ini.
Added simple bump and specular maps. Also added damage tgas.
Major changes in the cockpit - now it is much more correct. Although probably not everyone cares ore will see a difference. Anyway.

******************IMPORTANT******************
FakePilot mod needed to run this mod. 
As always.
Standard animation commands HH-53 C:
LANDING GEAR - Nose light deploy/retract at any speed.
ANIMATION 1 - cargo ramp half open
ANIMATION 2 - cabin windows
ANIMATION 3 - wipers outside/inside
ANIMATION 4 - refueling probe
Hook - changes position when refueling to see the tip of the spear.
rescue op:
Open "bombbay" doors - cargo ramp and right side hatch/door
ANIMATION 8 - Open side doors, lower jungle penetrator
ANIMATION 9 - deploy PJ
ANIMATION 10 - lower/raise hoist.
Animation 8, 9 and 10 have a speed limit. So you can't hoist on full speed.
With little practice, you can even hoover. Without fake flaps and airbrakes.
Important here to control is using rudder and vector thrust control.
Normally throttle vector control on 88-89 degree increase power 70% then slowly more and more, wait and it will take off.
 
Cockpits.
One cockpit for HH-53C and CH-53C equipped with RWR and one cockpit for earlier non rwr HH-53B. Historically not all HH-53C airframes were equipped with RWR. BUt this mod covers RWR mod installed.
Skins.
All serial numbers are based on available photos and are historically correct and few versions of one unit for each helo.
Few versions of one unit for each helo.
CH-53C 21st SOS
HH-53C 37th and 40th ARRS
HH-53B 37th and 40th ARRS
Weapons.
The only "offensive" weapon is left/right side gunner equipped with GAU-2 minigun. Well, it is quite a defensive weapon.
Unlike in pack 'Over Europe' here CH-53C can't be equipped with a refueling probe (small ini tweak will do the trick). 
Fuel Tanks 450 US Gal. for CH-53C and HH-53C and 650 US Gal. for HH-53B
There is a separate weapon station called SandyStation - with allowed all sort of offensive weapons. Purpose of this station is to fly with Sandy (or any other USAF aircraft) as wingman fully loaded. Same way can be added Sandy fuel tanks.
IMPORTANT -
Due to tu construction of this mod, it is better to use collision and landing on NORMAL setting. On hard, you may have some complications on the airfield - especially with underslung cargo load.
 
Pilots - best to use is OldDiego's pilots.
 
Have fun.
Edit and report bugs.

Dassault Étendard IVM/IVP
 
Etendard IV was like its predecessors a light attack aircraft. In 1956, this unit interests Navy as an embedded multi-role fighter. In December 1956, a semi-navalized prototype is controlled. In May 1957, 5 copies of fully navalized pre-production are controlled by the Navy, which gets its name from Etendard IVM. The first prototype took place May 21, 1958, and the first pre-series will follow on December 21 the same year. Both devices are powered by a SNECMA Atar 08B thrust of 4.4 tonnes. pre-production copies provided with tips of folding wings, the landing gear to be strengthened and the catapult and arrested a drag hook. The second copy of preproduction was pushed by a Rolls-Royce Avon 51 5 tons of thrust, he carried a camera in the nose and was named Etendard IVP (used for tactical reconnaissance). Between 1963 and 1965, 69 Etendard IVM and 21 PVI were delivered to the French air arm, they remained in service until 1991, when they were replaced by the Super-Etendard.

Aero L-39C/ZA/ZO Albatros for Strike Fighters 2 series (Europe, Israel)
 
Installation:
Under Win7 or Vista unzip content into User\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2(...)\Objects
Under WinXP is the destination in MyDocuments\ThirdWire...
 
History (from wiki):
The Aero L-39 Albatros is a high-performance jet trainer aircraft developed in Czechoslovakia to meet requirements for a "C-39" (C for cvi?ný – trainer) during the 1960s to replace the L-29 Delfín. It was the first of the second-generation jet trainers, and the first turbofan-powered trainer produced, and was later updated as the L-59 Super Albatros and as the L-139 (prototype L-39 with engine Garrett TFE731). The design is still produced in an evolved state as the L-159 ALCA, while more than 2,800 L-39s still serve with over 30 air forces around the world. The Albatros – the most widely used jet trainer in the world – is versatile, seeing duty in light-attack missions as well as in basic and advanced pilot training.

SF2 MiG-23 & MiG-27 Floggers - Part 3
 
This mod supplies a collection of MiG-23 & MiG-27 Floggers, created by ArmourDave and The Mirage Factory, and heavily modded by Lindr2 for SFP1. (These are not mods of the 3rdWire Floggers supplied in the SF2 titles.) All have been converted and updated to SF2 standards. Also included with this mod are all the weapons, sounds, pilots, and seats that you will need to install and use any of the aircraft supplied with this mod.
 
This mod consists of three parts:
 
Part 1: 1st Generation MiG-23s (MiG-23S, Mig-23M, MiG-23ME, MiG-23MF,
MiG-23MF, MiG-23UB)
 
Part 2: 2nd Generation MiG-23s (MiG-23ML, MiG-23MLA, MiG-23MLAE, MiG-23P,
MiG-23PD, MiG-23-98, MiG-23UM)
 
Part 3: Ground Attack MiG-23s (MiG-23B, MiG-23BN) & MiG-27s (MiG-27,
MiG-27D, MiG-27K, MiG-27M, MiG-27ML)
 
Each of the three parts includes all the decals, pilots, sounds, effects that you will need for the aircraft in that part. The WEAPONS are contained ONLY IN THE 2ND PART, which means that you MUST DOWNLOAD THE 2ND PART TO GET THE WEAPONS.
 
These aircraft can be used in SF2, SF2E, SF2V, or SF2I. To install and use them, you should ensure that your SF2 installation is patched to at least the Dec2009 patch level. See below for installation instructions.
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Installation
~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
Please note that installation of these aircraft will overwrite & replace the default 3rdWire versions included in the various SF2 titles. I recommend that you first REMOVE the 3rdWire MiG-23 and MiG-27 versions - even if you haven't modded them -- before installing these alternate versions.
 
To install, simply drag the following folders to your SF2 Mods Folder (NOT the folder that the game installs to):
 
\Effects
\Flight
\Objects
\Sounds
 
By default your Mod Folder should be located here:
 
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\[username]\My Documents\ThirdWire\[Game]\
Windows Vista: \Users\[username]\Saved Games\ThirdWire\[Game]\
Windows 7: \Users\[username]\Saved Games\ThirdWire\[Game]\
 
...where [username] is the account you log into within Windows and [Game] is the name of the particular game mod folder that you're moving the files to.
 
If the aircraft are not showing up in your Single Mission Aircraft menu, then you didn't install all the bits correctly. And remember, the WEAPONS are contained ONLY IN THE 2ND PART, which means that you MUST DOWNLOAD THE 2ND PART TO GET THE WEAPONS.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A Few Notes About This Mod
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
Those familiar with Lindr2's Flogger packages for SFP1 will rightly recognize that this updated mod builds on his earlier efforts. Although I have largely followed Lindr2's lead in assembling this package, there are some noteworthy differences between his SFP1 collections and this one:
 
1) Different Engine Sounds & Afterburner TGAs
 
I have used different engine sounds and afterburner TGAs to give the various engines used by different models distinct sounds and appearances.
 
2) NATO Code Names
 
The aircraft names do include the NATO code names, whereas Lindr2's SFP1 versions did not use them at all. Also, the Air-to-Air weapons use both NATO and Soviet names/designations (e.g., "R-73 AA-11 Archer").
 
3) Wider range of Skins/Nations
 
You will find a wider range of skins used to represent more nations, drawing on the various one-off skins that have been released by other modders.

This package largely consists of work done by others and released previously in other packages. All I did was assemble the package, update the bits to SF2 standards, and make minor adjustments and tweaks here and there (discussed above).

SF2 Mirage 2000 Foreign Operator Pack
 
 
This is a FULL merged SF2 Pack... Tested up to Mar2012 Updates.
 
Each Foreign Mirage 2000 Operator is included (Full Fleet of each Air Force).
 
 
I have done the following:
 
1. Most of the tweaks on the files
2. All the Mods on the files
3. All the skins on the files (using MF as the base)
4. All the modified weapons on the files
5. 3 separate cockpit glass tint
6. Modified afterburner/effects (tested 4 different one, settle on the one on file)
 
The Air Force included:
 
HAF
Qatar
ROCAF
UAE
EAF
FAB
FAP
HAL
 
I want to thank 'Crusader' for trying to tweak the cockpit by YEYEYE, and for approving the use of the .LODs.
 
The cockpit's main Attitude Inidicator is not model appropriately so the standby is the main ADI.
I have lock the main ADI to only capable of 'yaw'
 
If you want to use the default MF cockpit, just change the name on the MF's cockpit.ini and avionic.ini to correspond with the aircraft's name on file and copy and past to the main files alone with the MF cockpit folder.

This is the hard to get Vulcan that was exclusive to the A-Team website ,unless you were deemed suitable eventually to download after being screened .
 
This model is developed from MY sorce file by Capun,as I did majority of the work..(model was basically complete,except mapping etc and a few bits n pieces.
opinions?..
Anyone who wants it will get it as its basically my model anyways...
 
This model wouldnt have been sent if I had known the route to getting it was to be so difficult.
I make models for free and so it shall be with this one.
 
you will need the Vulcan package hosted here at combatace and ive included modified ini to reflect the LOD supplied.

anyways enjoy.

The Ilyushin Il-10 (NATO reporting name: "Beast") was a Soviet ground attack aircraft developed at the end of World War II by the Ilyushin construction bureau.It was also license-built in Czechoslovakia by Avia as the Avia B-33.
After the war, until the early 1950s, the Il-10 was a basic Soviet ground attack aircraft. It was withdrawn from service in 1956.
The Il-10 and its licensed variant, the Avia B-33, became a basic ground attack plane of the Warsaw Pact countries. From 1949 to 1959, the Polish Air Force used 120 Il-10s (including 24 UIl-10), and 281 B-33s.
In Poland, the B-33 was modified to carry 400 l fuel tanks under its wings. From 1950 to 1960, Czechoslovakia used 86 Il-10s, including six UIl-10s, and about 600 B-33s. From 1949 to 1956, the Hungarian Air Force used 159 Il-10s and B-33s, named "Párduc" (Panther). From 1950 to 1960, the Romanian Air Force used 14 Il-10s and 156 B-33s. Bulgaria also used these aircrafts.
 
In the late 1940s, 93 Il-10 and UIl-10s were given to North Korea. They were then used in the 57th Assault Aviation Regiment during the early phase of the Korean War. They were initially used with success against the weak anti-aircraft defense of South Korean forces (following the US refusal to supply the south with "heavy weapons"), but then they suffered heavy losses in encounters against the USAAF fighters and were bombed on the ground themselves. After several weeks, about 20 remained. In the summer of 1950, North Korea received more aircraft from the USSR. The North Koreans claimed to sink a warship on 22 August 1950 with Il-10s, but it was never confirmed.
From 1950, Il-10s were used by the People's Republic of China, in two regiments of an assault aviation division. They were used in combat during a conflict with the Republic of China, (Taiwan), over border islands in January 1955. They remained in service until 1972 (replaced by Nanchang Q-5). From 1957, Yemen used 24 B-33s.
 
 
As we realy needed this plane for every early cold war scenery (KAW, SF2EU, TSF, Taiwan, Timor ....) I decided to finish it at all cost and skin in every known post war liveries.
This is a real team work (see credits)

Mirage IIIB
 
The Armée de l'Air also ordered a two-seat Mirage IIIB operational trainer, which first flew in October 1959. The fuselage was stretched about a meter (3 ft 3.5 in) and both cannons were removed to accommodate the second seat. The IIIB had no radar, and provision for the SEPR rocket was deleted, although it could carry external stores. The AdA ordered 63 Mirage IIIBs (including the prototype), including five Mirage IIIB-1 trials aircraft, ten Mirage IIIB-2(RV) inflight refueling trainers with dummy nose probes, used for training Mirage IVA bomber pilots, and 20 Mirage IIIBEs, with the engine and some other features of the multi-role Mirage IIIE. One Mirage IIIB was fitted with a fly-by-wire flight control system in the mid-1970s and redesignated 'Mirage IIIB-SV (Stabilité Variable); this aircraft was used as a testbed for the system in the later Mirage 2000.

History
 
In October 1986, the USAF announced that operational block 15 F-16A/B aircraft would be converted to air defense fighters for the Air National Guard, and would take over the fighter interception mission, providing the primary defense of North America against bombers and cruise missiles.
 
The first F-16A ADF conversion was completed in February 1989, while a contract was placed for kits to update and modify a total of 270 F-16A/B's at the Ogden Air Logistics Center in Utah. The Block 15 airframes used for the ADF program were all meant to be upgraded to block 15OCU standard, and both programs ran in conjunction. Aircraft entering the Ogden ALC for ADF upgrade also received the Block 15OCU avionics installation. The net result is that all ADF aircraft are Block 15OCU airframes. The last ADF left Ogden in 1992.
 
Structure & Avionics
 
Modifications included Bendix King (now Allied Signal) AN/ARC-200HF/SSB radios with Have Quick II Secure Speech Module and the Teledyne/E Systems Mk.XII Advanced IFF system (APX-109). The APG-66 radar was modified (designated APG-66A) to provide look down/shoot-down capability, enhanced small target detection, and CW (Continuous Wave) illumination for AIM-7 guidance.
 
A 150,000 candlepower night identification spotlight was installed on the port side of the nose (below and in front of the cockpit) to aid in the identification of nighttime intruders. The aircraft were equipped to carry 600 (US) gallon (2,271 liter) external drop tanks, and to carry 6 BVR missiles such as the AIM-7 Sparrow or AIM-120 AMRAAM.
 
Modifications & Upgrades
 
The ADF aircraft can be distinguished from "standard" F-16A/B's by several external identifying features, such as long and thin horizontal bulges on the base of the vertical tail (only A-models), plus a set of four blade antenna, nicknamed "bird-slicer", carried just forward of the canopy (as part of the IFF system).
 
The bulges are caused by the relocation of the Bendix-King AN/ARC-200 high frequency single-sideband radio to the leading edge of the fin. This in turn caused the flight control accumulators, which were installed one over the other, to be relocated to either side of the tail fin. The bulges were installed to provide sufficient room for these accumulators. Note that, since the Bravo-model ADF's do not have the Bendix HF radio, they also don't have the bulges.
 
Production
 
All ADF F-16s are modified airframes. Existing Block 15 models where converted to the Block 15OCU upgrade and to ADF standard at once. In total, 271 airframes, consisting in 246 A-models and 25 B-models have been converted between 1989 and 1992. Minor differences exist between the A-model and B-model as described earlier.
 
Because of the fall of the Berlin wall in 1989 and the opening of relationships between West and East, the program had lost its major reason of existence, being the protection of the North American continent against Russian bombers flying over the North Pole. Although the program was finished and all aircraft stayed into service with the Air National Guard detachments, they were the first to be mothballed at AMARC with the first major restructuring of the USAF. Beginning in 1994, these aircraft began to be replaced by newer F-16C variants. By 2005, only the North Dakota ANG was flying this variant, with these last examples retired by 2007.
 
A lot of these ADF F-16s are a very cheap and quite modern asset for allied countries. These aircraft have relatively low flying hours on their airframes. A lot of them are sold on the second-hand market. Jordan was the first to receive 12 A-models and 4-models under the Peace Falcon program in 1997. Most have since been received the Mid Life Upgrade (MLU). Thailand has acquired another batch of 15 A-models and 1 B-model under the Peace Naresuan IV program. Also the Italian Air Force received 26 A-models and 4 B-models under a 10-year lease agreement called Peace Caesar.

This mod represents Late model of CH-53A already with instaled EAPS and early models oF CH-53D with uprated engines.
A model never received aux fuel tanks and were used until 1992. At the end of service mostly by reserve units.
D model /early/ was used also until around 1992.  Not every D model was upgraded so in this config they were flying until the 90s.

CHANGES:
I highly recommend to overwrite previous files decals/weapons/guns- or best is delete the old one and put new files.
YOU NEED TO DELETE OLD AIRCRAFT FOLDERS CH-53A and CH-53D_70. Many things were changed and as tested Overwriting may cause some problems...So delete old ones put new ones.
The rest (except Aircraft folders) are same you can be overwrite without fear...
Small changes in ini files, corrections on fuel loadout, changes in cockpit ini. 
Small changes in skins. Also No longer fake weapon "no gun" is needed - thanks to The Trooper. He pointed small fix in data.ini.
Added simple bump and specular maps. Also added damage tgas.
Some changes and rearrangement in the cockpit

******************IMPORTANT******************
FAkePilot mod neede to run this mod. 
As always.
This addon works with my CargoPACK (included in rar file). All of the weapon stations are made as specific station code and will work only with this cargo pack. Of course, you can edit and use any other weapons available. 
Standard commands:

LANDING GEAR - Nose light deploy/retract at any speed. 
ANIMATION 1 - right side hatch and door.
ANIMATION 2 - left hatch cabin windows
ANIMATION 3 - wipers outside/inside
Parking animations.
Two parking animations included one for 'on land base' and other for 'on board' parking.
Im including two vessels moded as USMC nation.(same as in AH-1J pack) so you can practice start and land. 
Those ships have moded catapults, deck and arresting cables in data.ini file. 
Those ships are limited only to those used during Vietnam War on WestPac/SEA cruises.
You can fold tail and rotor by enabling animation in data.ini  file. But it looks silly. And my intention for this animation was eye candy on board vessel.

With little practice, you can even hoover. Without fake flaps and airbrakes.
Important here to control is using rudder and vector thrust control.
With heavy cargo load probably you need little run on A model as engines on A are little underpowered.
Normally throttle vector control on 88-89 degree increase power 70% then slowly more and more, wait and it will take off. 
It is possible to land on board two included ships. don't forget about a hook.
 
Cockpits.
One cockpit based on NATOPS manual, an early model for both A and early D model.

Both models are similar. The only difference is in engine power. D model is 'stronger' so it's easier with heavy loadouts. And only D can tow 'experimental' Mk105 minesweeper.

Skins.
All serial numbers are based on available photos, and USMC documents and are historically correct. 
Weapons.
The only "offensive" weapon is left/right side gunner. Well, it is a quite defensive weapon.
Ah.. there is Napalm barrel bombs. Used in Vietnam War. Inside _WingsOverVietnam_Only Addon Folder
...BOOM.
Cargo loads.
I am releasing this cargo load in current condition. So maybe some skins needs to be adjusted.
Cargo loads include few cargo crates for cargo bay and hook, howitzer, MUTTs. Skins for MUTTS - Thank yo The Trooper.

in 1973 USMC joined NAVY in operation End Sweep and equipped their D model (HMH-463 only) with minesweeping stuff. So here you can "tow" Mk105 minesweeper. It is just interim mk105. V.2 is under development.
To see Mk105 open cargo bay.
IMPORTANT - 
Due to construction of this mod it is better to use collision and landing on NORMAL setting. On hard, you may have some complications on airfield - especially with underslung cargo load. 
Countermeasures.
I've deleted Countermeasures from weapon loadout. 

Skins.
All serial numbers, as far as I know, are based on photos and US Army docs and are historically correct.
CH-53A in Vietnam used by HMH-463 and HMH-361.
In mid-80s A model was still in use by some units. One of the last unit to use CH-53A was HMH-772 until 1992 when they send A to AMARC.
Also in mid-80s ( I believe it was in middle or late) US Navy composite squadron VC-1 was using old ex-marine CH-53A until 1992 when they send them to AMARC. I think they were using only these two aircrafts.
CH-53D
Few paintings fro different years,  early green early 80s green and tri-color mid-80s.
HMH-361, HMH-362, HMH-461, HMH-461 - two schemes one - 78 from a trip to Japan and one 1973 during Operation End Sweep.

Pilots - best to use is OldDiego's pilots. 
This mod still needs some work. Will be working on it. 
Have fun.
Edit and report bugs.

FakePilot mod needed to run this mod. 
As always.
Standard animation commands HH-53 C:
LANDING GEAR - Nose light deploy/retract at any speed.

ANIMATION 10 - lower/raise hoist.
Animation 8, 9 and 10 have a speed limit. So you can't hoist on full speed.
 
With little practice, you can even hoover. Without fake flaps and airbrakes.
Important here to control is using rudder and vector thrust control.
Normally throttle vector control on 88-89 degree increase power 70% then slowly more and more, wait and it will take off.
 
Cockpits.
One cockpit for both aircrafts.
Skins.
All serial numbers are based on available photos and are historically correct and few versions of one unit for each helo.
CH-53C 601st TASS Sembach, Germany.
- early SEA and late EURO1/ hi viz painting.
HH-53C 67th ARRS Woodbridge, UK.
- early SEA and EURO1 camouflage scheme plus additional one grey before 67th moved to Woodbridge.
Weapons.
The only "offensive" weapon is left/right side gunner equipped with GAU-2 minigun. Well, it is quite a defensive weapon.
CH-53C can be equipped with a refueling probe (same weapon station as in RH-53D)
 
There is a separate weapon station called SandyStation - with allowed all sort of offensive weapons. Purpose of this station is to fly with Sandy (or any other USAF aircraft) as wingman fully loaded. Same way can be added Sandy fuel tanks.
IMPORTANT -
Due to tu construction of this mod, it is better to use collision and landing on NORMAL setting. On hard, you may have some complications on the airfield - especially with underslung cargo load.

Snailman's Excellent Red Weapons!
...for all their work!

This is simple remod, overhaul of Florian's Sea King model.
Model itself is Florian work and all hail to him for his work.
 
---------------------------------------------
The names of all contributors, modders, suppliers, etc =MUST= be listed in any new readmes.
This package and any part of it may NOT in any way, shape or form be used in any payware additions.
Any persons wishing to make further modfications, MUST remember to put everyone's name in it.
 
This mod represents SH-3D and some versions of SH-3A used by US Navy for CSAR operations.
 
Althoug Florian's SH-3 represents something between A-D Generaly it fits here but are not hundred% correct.
There were also two D versions with small differences...but this is different story.
 
This is version 2 uploadaed with smaler size of skins.
You can also download only skins in seperate rar file.
 
Model itself is untouched by me. Only in A version ive removed few bits by ini work.
Using Florian's skins ive made templates and new skins.
 
In this pack SH-3D skins are:
 
HS-4 'Black Knights' USS Ticonderoga 1971
HS-5 'Night Dippers' USS Wasp 1970
HS-11 'Dragonslayers' USS John F. Kennedy 1976
 
SH-3A is made for Wings over Vietnam mod.
It represents only one unit:
HS-6 'Indians' USS Kearsarge 1966-1968 at Yankee Station.
Plus additional one skin with shortly used camo paint.
 
All decals are made by me and are based on available documents and photos. So lets say - historicaly correct.
 
This helo got new ini work. So if you have old Florian SeaKing - do a backup. Becasue this is new and you might not like it.
new aircraft data ini with new flight model, and few differences
animation keys reassigned.
 
Sonar and MAD operations are same as before, ANIMATION KEYS 3,4,5
Right side rear slide doors are opened as bomb_bay
left side slide door as ANIMATION KEY 1
 
Rotor brake ANIMATION KEY 7
Folding rotor ANIMATION KEY 8
 
Ive put some speed limits for animations up to 30 kts for doors,and rotor animation so you can fold onboard vessel.
 
Flying is done same way as in my helos. Vector thrust controll, etc.. it is pretty simple.
 
Last thing:
There is new cockpit. As replacement ive done some simple generic cockpit for SH-3. Since there is lot of versions of SeaKing lot of pits, this is generic and simple build, that should fit here.
Consider it as beta, few things are not working there.
 
***************
THIS COCKPIT FOR SH-3 SEA KING OR ANY PART OF IT MUST NOT BE HOSTED OR
POSTED FOR DOWNLOAD ON ANY OTHER WEB SITE WITHOUT MY EXPRESS
PERMISSION, OR USED FOR ANY OTHER PURPOSE THAN THIRDWIRE FLIGHT
SIMULATORS, AND MUST NOT BE SOLD OR OFFERED FOR SALE BY ITSELF
OR WITH ANY OTHER FILES OR MODS.

This is the long awaited MiG-25 interceptor models upgrade. Sadly the new model and the new proper pit seem disappeared, as some other dreamed great preview planes, like vaporware.
But now we have these "oldies but goldies" revamped ...
And if you'ld like to fly for freedoom as Lt. Belenko you can do as his plane is inside the pack.
As I remember well when the most feared soviet MiG, landed on Hakhodate Japan airport ....
Old glory, good, cold war years, when you'ld see your enemy quite straight in his icy eyes.
 

Enjoy.
