SF2 WW2 PTO Pv-1 Ventura (Mid) by Veltro2K        9/2/2014
 -- Something for the WW2 PTO players --
= For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
**Note: This mod will -NOT- work in 1stGen game installs at any patch level. A Full-5 merged is reccomended.**
This is a the release of Veltro2K's =NEW= Lockheed/Vega PV-1 Ventura USN Patrol Bomber. This represents the mid-production solid nosed, with 2-guns as used in the PTO.  
There are 4 skin/decals set(s) in the package:
USN (42-43, NS Blue over NS Grey, star-and-ball)
USN43 (star-&-bar, 3 tone)
and
RNZAF (dark blue over grey mid-war light blue roundels)
RNZAF43 (dark blue overgrey, roundel-and-bar, various Pacfic Places (tm) )
The skins use the SF2 "date switch", and will change in approx September, 1943
Although the US Navy skins are tagged for various VB/VPB squadrons, they are representative of pretty much ALL USN PTO Ventura units from Australia to the Aleutians.
The RNZAF skins, while tagged for No.3 Squadron, are also fairly representative of NZ units in the SoWesPac regions of the PTO.
All markings are decals, and Decal Randomization is TRUE. Serial number/BuNums are accurate for the model depicted, but should be considered 'generic' in nature, as they reprsent no specific unit. Lighting is as accurate as possible, given the lack of pictures of the bottom.
Engine sounds, pilot figures, Hangar & Loading Screens are included. Weapons, guns, bombs, etc, are NOT; you should have them already.  Operational service dates are rounded to 'whole months', and ARE relatively correct for ALL in-theatre usages.
When in game, you'll see
PV-1 Ventura (Mid) (v2k)
on the Aircraft Selection Drop down menu. As several versions are planned, this will help keep them diferentiated, so to speak.
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!!  
Happy Landings!!

This is a the release of Veltro2K's =NEW= Lockheed/Vega PV-1 Ventura USN Patrol Bomber. This represents the late-production solid nosed, with 5 guns (3 in a 'chin pak' under the nose) as used in the PTO.  
There are 1 skin/decals set(s) in the package:
USN (star-&-bar, 3 tone)
Although the skin is tagged for VPB-137 (Phillipine based in late 44), it is representative of pretty much ALL USN PTO Ventura units from Australia to the Aleutians.

Engine sounds, pilot figures, Hangar & Loading Screens are included. Weapons, guns, bombs, etc, for the most part, are NOT; you should have them already. However, a set of HVAR mounts, the rockets themselves, and the drop tank is.  Operational service dates are rounded to 'whole months', and ARE relatively correct for ALL in-theatre usages.

There are 2 skin/decals set(s) in the package:
USN (star-&-bar, 3 tone for WW2)
DGNB (dark gloss Navy blue overall, post-war)
Although the 3 tone skin is tagged for VPB-138 (Northern Pacific/Aleutian Islands region), it is representative of pretty much ALL USN PTO Ventura units from Australia to the Aleutians.
The DGNB skin is tagged for VP-772, a post-war reserve squadron based at NAS Los Alimitos, California circa 1948. The base blue skin can also be used for several of the other post-war users.
All markings are decals, and Decal Randomization is TRUE. Serial number/BuNums are accurate for the model depicted, but should be considered 'generic' in nature, as they reprsent no specific unit. Lighting is as accurate as possible, given the lack of pictures of the bottom.
Engine sounds, pilot figures, and a 'box art' Hangar Screen are included. Weapons, guns, bombs, etc, for the most part, are NOT; you should have them already.

SF2 WW2 C-60 Lodestar by Veltro2K        9/15/2014

= For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
**Note: This mod will -NOT- work in 1stGen game installs at any patch level.A Full-5 merged is reccomended.**
This is a the release of Veltro2K's =NEW= Lockheed/Vega Model 18 Lodestar transport/light cargo aircraft. This represents the C-57 type as used by US airline companies, impressed into military service, and new build C-60s. In reality, this was the first of the type, the Ventura and later the Harpoon being evolutions of this airframe.
There are 2 skin/decals set(s) in the package:
AAF (early 42-43, star-and-ball (withOUT red center) )
AAF43 (star-&-bar)
both are in standard USAAF OD/NG
and
NM (a natural metal finsh for late war, or civilian users)
The OD skins use the SF2 "date switch", and will change in approx September, 1943. The NM skin is only selectable via the usual drop-down on the Loadout Screen.
All markings are decals, and Decal Randomization is TRUE. Serial number are accurate for the model depicted, but should be considered 'generic' in nature, as they reprsent no specific unit. 
Engine sounds, pilot figures are included, but there is NO Hangar Screen, as transports really don't have anything to do in the SF/SF2 series. Operational service dates are rounded to 'whole months', and ARE relatively correct for ALL in-theatre usages.
Like the Venturas, the cabin door is operated by the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0. It is also set for the parked animation, so as to be Open when sitting on the ramp.
When in game, you'll see
C-60 Lodestar (v2k)

= For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
**Note: This mod will -NOT- work in 1stGen game installs at any patch level. A Full-5 merged install is reccomended.**
This is a the release of Veltro2K's =NEW= Lockheed/Vega Ventura Mk.II Bomber. This represents the early "glass nosed" bomber version as used by the RAF in the ETO, with the Boulton-Paul turret. Although this mod is being released last, historically, the RAF Ventura's were in action FIRST!  
There are 1 skin/decals set(s) in the package:
No. 21 Squadron
All markings are decals, and Decal Randomization is TRUE. Serial numbers are accurate for the model depicted, but should be considered 'generic' in nature, as they reprsent no specific unit. As has been the case, the other Ventura squadrons can be replicated by creating new squadron code letter decals.
The various sounds and pilot figures are included. Weapons, guns, bombs, etc, are NOT; you should have them already.  Operational service dates are rounded to 'whole months', and ARE relatively correct for in-theatre usages.

= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*Note: This mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs at any patch level, due to the extensive modifications made to fit them into the SF2 environment. End Users � that attempt it, do so at their own risk. A Full 5 Merged install is reccomened at the LATEST patch level.*
 
This mod represents B-29 Superfortress bombers used by the RAF in the early 1950s. This is a "country specific" mod, =ONLY= designed for Royal Air Force usage. It is the complete aircraft, including a 'new(ish)' cockpit. All items, excepting weapons are included.
 
This is a complete revamp of the now no longer available 1st Gen mod by Bob "howling1" Hauser. This mod is dedicated to his memory, both as a Person, and a Modder.
 
The skin herein represents Washingtons from
 
No 44 "Rhodesia" Squadron
 
All markings are decals. Serial numbers, while correct for this model, are to be considered generic in nature. Decal randomization is TRUE. The only 'nose art' is the squadron badge (also a decal!). Other squadron can easily be done by creating a new squadron letters decal. (and nose badge, of course).
The aircraft carries standard USAAF/USAF WW2 era bombs. The Tallboy stations remain active.

SF2 WW2 PTO B-26 Marauder Pak
 
-- Something for the WW2 PTO players --
= For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
**Note: Having SF2I Expansion Pak 1 is HIGHLY reccomended, as a few of the destroyed models referenced reach over to the stock destroyed C-47A. If you do =NOT= have Exp1, you will NOT have the burning wreck on the ground. You will have to locate some other destroyed model for use. Also, due to modifications to various inis, this mod will probably -NOT- work in 06 level 1stGen game installs. 08 Level 1stGens may have some issues, but this has not/cannot be tested by me.**
 
This is a reissue of Veltro2K's B-26 Marauder Medium Bomber. It has been reskinned/redecaled and had some tweeking done. This mod ONLY represents Marauders used in the PTO, specificly, in the SoWesPac region (read: New Guinea). It's "representative" of B-26A's used - see Notes below for more information.
 
This unit represented herein is...
 
2nd BS, 22nd BG, circa March 1942 through 1943 (before star-and-bar), in OD/Grey (as operated from Australia and New Guinea)
 
The skin are in jpg format, and have been remade from a new Home Grown ™ 'partial template'. All new, 100% historically accurate serial numbers were created for this squadron. There ARE nose arts for ths aircraf, but they are 'speculative' at best as I could find almost NO references what what they looked like (see Notes for more info). Decal randomization is set to TRUE. Like the ETO version, new DDS format damage textures are included.
 
It should be noted, do =NOT= use this mod in a ETO or MTO-centric mods folder; these Pacific Marauders are different!!!!
 
Engine sounds, pilot figures, a Brand NEW Theatre-specific Hangar screen (in SF2 jpg format) are included. Bombs and guns (and the Mk.13 torpedo!) are not; you should have them already. Operational service dates are rounded to 'whole months'.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!! PLEASE read the "Notes" section for the change list, and other important notations. Also, the Legal Statement has been changed with regards to this aircraft.
For those that still have the original releases (and tweeked them for PTO usage), it's advised you delete the aircraft and decals folders for them; this pak is desinged to replace them in total.
 
**This aircraft herein are released in "AS IS" Condition. The source files have been lost, and there can and WILL be no modifications to the physical model. It 'is as they is' and you must accept it with this caveat in mind. Any and all issues/problems that cannot be solved via ini edits will exist forever, as new models are unlikely to be created**

SF2 WW2 ETO B-26B/G Marauder Pak

This is a reissue of Veltro2K's B-26 Marauder Medium Bomber. It has been reskinned/redecaled and had some tweeking done. This mod ONLY represents Marauders used in the ETO. As they are (almost) identical aircraft, your in-game displayed name will read "B-26B/G Marauder"
 
This units represented herein are...
 
449th BS, 322nd BG, circa 1942 upon initial arrival in the ETO (star/circle) in OD/Grey
449th BS, 322nd BG, cir3a 1943 til wars end, with 'star-and-bar' insignia, also in OD/Grey
494th BS, 344th BG, circa 1944 til wars end, in "Natual Metal" (withOUT OD uppers)
 
All skins are in jpg format, and have been remade from a new Home Grown ™ 'partial template'. All new Squadron Codes, plane-in-group and serial number decals were created. The 449th serials ARE historically accurate (90-95%), matched when possible to call letter. The 494th serials are 'generic' in nature, but are actual B-26G serials. All markings are decals, making in easier for skinners to recrate other ETO (or even MTO) units. There are only 2 nose art decals, both on the 449th skins, one for the 1942 and one for the 1943. None of these skins carry D-Day Invasion Stripes.
 
It should be noted, do =NOT= use this mod in a PTO-centric mods folder; the Pacific Marauders are different, and will covered in another, theatre-specific upload.
 
Engine sounds, pilot figures, BRAND new Hangar and Loading screens (in SF2 jpg format) are include. Bombs and guns are not; you should have them already. A user list is included. Operational service dates are rounded to 'whole months'.

CH-124 pack for SF2
 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Based on the SH-3D AND SeaKingMK41 made by Florian. 
 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
 
This is the CH-124 Sea King as used by the RCAF for the SF2 series of games.
 
The skins represent the schemes used by the RCAF on their CH-124 Sea Kings.

The serial numbers in this skin pack along with planes numbers are real one's. 

You will get the following skins in this package :
CH-124A        circa 1963
CH-124B        circa 1974
CH-124B        circa 1991
 
* Note : I did not touched the model, so visually only the CH-124A 1963 variant will look like the real one.  Thanks to Florian who made a change to my CH-124A lod, i am able to depict a CH-124B look alike as the dome radar has been put on the modified LOD. So unless someone is doing modeling work on this bird to add the RCAF goodies like the Flir, sunoboys launchers and a few other things someday, only the skins for the 1974 and 1991 variant will reflect the real birds.
 

I HIGHLY recommand to install the complete aircraft as follow.
COMPLETE AIRCRAFT :

Copy the CH-124 Objects/aircraft folders content to your game aircraft folder.
Copy the CH-124 Objects/decals folder content to your game decals folder.
Copy the CH-124 Objects/pilots folders content to your game pilots folder.
Copy the CH-124 Objects/weapons folders content to your game weapons folder.

- Early Scheme 2
- Early Scheme 3
- Camo Scheme
- Low-Viz Grey Scheme
 
CC-130H :
- Low-Viz Grey Scheme

SF2 WW2 ETO P-47D-40 (Late) Pak 7/23/2017
 
-- Something for the WW2 ETO players --
 
= For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
The package represents late model P-47D (bubble top) Thunderbolts as used by the 9th Air Force in the European Theatre of Operations. It represents the -40 version with the additional fin fillet (which can and was also retrofitted to earlier marks). This aircraft is also equipped with "compressibility flaps", that first appeared on the D-30 block
This is a brand NEW version, and can be used to replace any earlier mods of this block, or as a replacement for those "no longer available" for download by everyone.
 
This is a complete aircraft package, and contains all the items necessary. The Standard Animation Keystroke, Shift/0 (zero) is used to open and close the canopy. The "compressibility flaps" operate with the standard 'airbrakes' key (as that's kind of what they are, sort of).
 
2 skins are included, both for 9th AF squadrons:
 
22nd FS, 36th FG (post 6/44, Invasion stripes on bottom only) 3T squadron code
 
394th FS, 367nd FG (post 1/45) 4N squadron code
 
The SF2 "date switch" is used on the 394th skin, and will automatically be selected from January 1945. Users that do not wish this feature, can easily disable it in the Textureset.ini.
 
Both aircraft are in Natural Metal finish, excepting for any squadron color designators, which are painted on. All markings are decals; a pool of serials and 'plane-in-squadron' letters are used on both skins, with decals for the squadron ID numbers/letters. The serial numbers, while correct for this model (D-40) should be considered 'generic' in nature, not representing specific aircraft or units. There are no nose arts. Decal randomization is TRUE.
 
When in-game, you'll see
 
P-47D-30/40 Thunderbolt (CAF)
 
on the aircraft selection drop down screen. This diferentiates it from any other Thunderbolts of these block numbers you may (or may not) have.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please =READ= them BEFORE installing this mod!!!. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too.
 
Good Hunting!!

SF2 WW2 MTO Spitfire Mk.V Trop 352 Squadron (Yugoslavia) by Cocas & Co 7/23/2017
 
-- Something for the Med players --
 
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*This mod will NOT work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs, at any patch level. Don't even bother trying.
 
Note : This mod represents Mk.V Trops used by the Balkans Air Force, specificly RAF No. 352 (Yugoslavia) Squadron. Even though the entire squadron was composed of Yugoslavian nationals, I've left it under the "RAF" nation tag. These do have a specific "time frame" for operation.
 
This is a full, complete aircraft mod for use in the MTO. All necessary items are included. Even though we lack a WW2 Balkans terrains, I thought it would be interesting to have "something a bit different" than all the usual Spitfire users.
 
In breaking with my usual tradition, the wing roundels and fin flash are painted on. All other marking (fuselage insignia, serial numbers, "plane in squadron" letters and nose art are decals. Decal randomization is TRUE. Serials/ID letters and nose arts are 100% historiclly correct, and are matched to their proper aircraft. Unfortunately, I could only find information on 10 aircraft, so that is what you're getting. The aircraft is finished in standard Euro camo, not MTO desert (profiles/photos corroborate this).
 
The canopy operates via the Standard Animation Keystroke ™, Shift/0. Guns are also grouped, MGs in Group 1, the cannon in Group 2.
Many other changes, mostly to minor adjustments have been performed. See "Notes" section for change list.
 
When in game, you'll see:
 
Spitfire Mk.Vb Trop Y (CAF)
 
on the aircraft selection dropdown menu. This will diferentiate =THIS= Spitfire from any other RAF Mk.Vs you may (or may not) have. The "Y" designates it for "Partisan Air Force".
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them.
 
Good Hunting!

De Havilland Osprey B.II by Cocas (what if...) 28/07/2017
 
Some time ago I requested some updates to the original Osprey by Cocas, a refuelling probe, airbrakes, antenna on the fuselage... cocas made the mod and I made a new skin for strategical use with the RAF in AntiFlash white. As the Osprey B.II does not differ wildly from the I, I retained the original readme and completed with some historical background. As the plane was never used on the desert being based only in UK and Germany, I not included the desert scheme, but the one in the original Osprey will work. For the Malvinas campaign, the green euro cammo should be used.
 
Model by cocas, new antiflash white skin by Stratos on cocas template, decals by Spinners. Thanks a lot guys!
 
Background:
 
Following the exit of the first version of the new De Havilland bird, the RAF aproached De Havilland with a request for a improved variant with Strategic bombing as its designed mission. The requirements were clear, a better range, a refuelling probe and a long range communication radio.
 
De Havilland felt it was pretty easy to complete the task, as the requested features were already imagined for the Osprey, and added another one, big air brakes on the wings. the refuelling probe was a bit more complicated, as it was tested first on the starboard wing, but it was hard to use in flying, specially in bad weather conditions, so a reuleing probe over the cockpit was installed and tested. It came with the risk of spilling gas on the cockpit glass, but simplified the refueling maneuvers a lot, so it was finally selected as the choosen one. The new communication array was based on a dorsal antenna and new radio equipment to be controlled by the copilot, as the plane retained the three man crew.
 
Finally bigger fuel tanks were installed and the new brakes air tested, those brakes improved maneuvers and shortened the landing run quite a bit, and then the prototype was sent to the RAF for testing. Plane was well liked by its crews and the RAf operated 49 of the birs in the nuclear bomber role, both based on UK and in RAf stations in Germany. During the first years the Osprey B.II used the classic Anti Flash white scheme, before converting to a regular cammo scheme as it was seen in the Malvinas campaign before retirement.
 
On the following pics, we can see a recently delivered Osprey B.II in anti flash white belonging to the squadron flying low over the Mach Loop in Wales, training for low level nuclear attack runs on Warsaw Pact targets.

HS.13 Cayuse / Hughes 369HM Spanish Navy. Ver 1.0 for SF2
 
This is a third party addon of Hughes 369HM using models and cockpits created by me.
The original flight model is standard as on many free to download helicopters.
I have just modified it a bit.
It is designed for and works only in SF2 series.

ANIMATION 10 - rear door.
 
ANIMATION 4 - floaters. (only if loaded)
 
Like in previously realased Cayuse family aircrafts here you can also fly low and slow.
I am sugesting to fly low on 40-50% of throttle. around 45degree vector control, use pulse rudder to control left right, it is realy easy. With little practice you can even hoover and follow ship with same speed and height. Without fake flaps and airbrakes. Important here is to control using rudder and vector thrust control.
 
Skins covers aircrafts used by 6 escuadrilla of Spanish Navy from 1972 untill late 90s. Later they repainted remaining aircrafts with grey scheme.
All numbers are historicaly correct and are based on available photos. Including losses of airframes.
 
Have fun.
Edit your way.
And report bugs.
you should probably thank acesfakia who asked me to do this.

CT-155 Hawk for SF2
 

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Entirely based on BAe Hawk T.1A Update Pak made by Wrench that can be found here :
 
http://combatace.com/files/file/12717-bae-hawk-t1a-for-sf2-by-russouk/
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
 
This is the CT-155 Hawk as used by the RCAF 15th Wing for the SF2 series of games.
 
I added rivets and did the skin for the CT-155 Hawks (RCAF) currently used by the NATO Training Center.
 
You may use the skin files only or use it as an entire aircraft.
 
Did not tested it on others Hawks. So it might work or not.
 
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The CT-155 Hawk was selected for the NATO Flying Training in Canada (NFTC) program because of its similarities to frontline fighter aircraft. Student pilots graduate from the CT-156 Harvard II to this highly advanced jet trainer. Its Rolls-Royce turbofan engine generates more than 6000lbs of thrust and powers the jet to supersonic speeds.
 
The Hawk’s sophisticated glass cockpit features:
 
a heads-up display (HUD)
hands-on throttle and stick (HOTAS) controls
integrated navigation and targeting systems
With its superior technology, the jet can perform a wide range of high performance training missions.
 
NFTC students train on the Hawk during the program’s final stage. Once they’ve logged 125 flight hours, Canada’s student fighter pilots are ready to join 410 Squadron, the Operation Training Unit, which flies CF-188 Hornets.
 
Canada is not alone in selecting this modern trainer. Fifteen countries, including the British Royal Air Force rely on the Hawk to prepare their pilots for combat. The United States Navy uses its own version—the T-45A Goshawk—as an advanced trainer for carrier operations.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
 
 
 
This skin represent the scheme used by the RCAF on their CT-155 trainers.
 
The serial numbers in this skin pack along with planes numbers are real one's.

SF2 McD F-4(VS) Phantom II (What If...)
 
= For SF2 (Full-4/5 Merged Reccomended) =
 
*Note: you =MUST= have, as stated above have, at minimum, a Full-4 merged install, as this mod makes use of many stock items, most importantly, F-4J cockpit. Therefore, it's vitally important that your game version has access to this cockpit.*
 
The is the release of a new "What If..." aircraft by Cocas. This represents the F-4X (VS) variable geometry (or swing wing) Phantom if it had been constructed as a supplimentry aircraft to the F-14 Tomcat, for use on smaller carriers.
 
The aircraft comes with the following skin/decal sets:
USN Grey 1 (standard Gull Grey/White
USMC Grey 1 (standard Gull Grey/White
USN Lo Viz (TPS grey, semi-subdued markings)
FAA Blue (standard Royal Navy Blue/White)
 
All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. Weapons used are all stock 3W items. Skins are in jpg format, and damage textures are DDS.
 
As all squadron markings, for the USN & USMC are decals, you may choose any Phantom squadron from the "squadron drop down" on the load out screen. Be Advised, however, some of the tail markings WILL fit better than others
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. One can find more fun reading all the Notes section as well!
Happy Landings!

This is simple remod, of Florian's Sea King model
Representing Spanish Navy Sikorsky HS.9 SeaKing.
Model itself is Florian work and all hail to him for his work.

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.

You need FakePilot mod to use this addon/
Model itself is untouched by me.

All decals are made by me and are based on available documents and photos - historicaly correct.

Skins represents only operator - 5 Escuadrilla of Spanish Navy. Repreents only early paint / model version from 1966 to early 90's

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.

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.

Thanks.

I used ianh755's updated V4.0 version of Dave & Sundowners original Tornado GR1 & GR4 series and F3 cockpit.
All included models are optimized for
. 
1st, the most important thing.
If you want to enjoy low level flying, you must change missioncontrol.ini file !
 
BACKUP ORIGINAL VALUES !!!
 
Then use our missioncontrol, that you can find as archive in our pack.
 
=======================================================================================
Patch 2.3 b
--------------
We promise this is last patch for GR.1 ;-))
Now we are going for GR.4 .
We corrected:
 
1) some bugs in cockpit
2) HUD (it's reworked to look more like real Tornado, thx to Fanatic Modder documentation)
3) AI attacks for british planes
4) removed Lightening pod from BL755 loadout for german ECR
 
we added:
1) open canopy animation for cockpit view (thx ravenclaw for 3d lessons)
PRESS -> SHIFT + 3 to see animation.
2) missed oil pressure indicators
 

Patch 2.3 a
--------------
 
We corrected:
 
1) Problem with wing tip vortex
2) Rudder secondary input
3) Landing speed
4) SPILS system settings
5) Fuel quantity for Saudi GR.1
6) Engines altitude power tables.
7) missing outer wing weapon stations for GR.1 82
8) ECM for brit and saudi planes moved back to pods from fuselage.
 
we added:
1) New Sky Shadow 3d model
 
We also did some small lift for steering sensitivity.
 
=======================================================================================
Fanatic Modder's and Guuruu's Tornado GR.1 version 2.3
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
So,
 
This is really serious upgrade .
Only Tornado GR.1, IDS and ECR are in this pack.
 
What is new ?
-------------------
 
We tried to get flight model as close to real Tornado as possible, so aerodynamic model
is new .
All planes have correct (reworked) engines, wing-sweep positions, max G for turning and
new cockpits (with lots of working lights).
We tested their acceleration, fuel consumption (it's still not perfect but better it was),
turning and climb rate.
We also added correct skin for Italian IDS 81 .
Weapons are no longer separate download, also missioncontrol.ini is inside of pack.
 
We decided to remove GR.4 from this files. She is far from finish and will be published
as separate files.
 
You will find 11 planes in this pack:
 
RAF:
-----
GR1 82 Early production
GR1 90 Better engines, more weapons than 82 model (in fact it is GR.1B with Sea Eagles)
I thought there is no sense to create same plane with only +Sea Eagles.
GR1 90 DESERT STORM Simply GR1 90 with desert camo (plane and weapons)
GR1A Recon version of GR1 90
 
Luftwaffe:
------------
GERMAN ECR HARM armed Tornado with Mk.105 engines
GERMAN IDS 79 similar to GR1 82
GERMAN Marineflieger IDS (with Kormorans and HARMs)
GERMAN IDS 06 which is continuation of Marine IDS after they were transferd to Luftwaffe.
 
Italians:
---------
ITALIAN ECR as german ECR but Italians didn't replace engines for Mk.105 and they use GPS JDAMS
ITALIAN IDS 81 very close to german IDS, can use JP233 insteed MW1
 
Saudi Arabia:
-----------------
SAUDI GR1 93 similar to british GR1 90
 
SKINS:
--------
Every plane has only 1 skin.
 
INSTALLATION:
--------------------
We higly recommend to remove/backup all earlier versions of OUR(!) GR.1 or ECR Tornadoes.
Then unpack this download and copy/paste (overwrite if needed) all files to your
MODS folder .
 
CREDITS:
