Add-On Aircraft

A complete SF-2 plane made using current Russo's F-84G model but following original SF-1 by Omer (readme included).
 
The Silver skins (3) are new and I have to thank Shusjake for his temps.
 
The Camo Skins (3) are old one edited and fixed on.
 
This is only the first of US planes with red stars on I made.
 
For the experts: silver ones have early and camo late airbrakes.
 
Enjoy.

Convair Model 201 for Strike Fighters 2
 
----------------------------------------------
What this is :
 
This is the CTOL version of Convair's Model 200 VSTOL entry for the Sea Control Ship fighter competition of the early 70's. It also reappeared later as GD Model 218 during the VFAX competition which ultimately ended up as the F-18.
 
There are quite a number of artist's impressions and 3-view floating around, of which most ones show a more pointy delta planform and underwing Sidewinders. That would be the earlier iterations, which by 1975 or so would have evolved into what you see here.
 
The original documentation only mentions 2 AIM-9 + 2 AIM-7 but I added 2 underwing and a centerline station because it makes the plane a bit more fun to use and isn't totally implausible.
 
----------------------------------------------
More Stuff:
 
It uses sounds from SF2E so your mileage may vary :o
 
----------------------------------------------
Known Issues:
 
None, really.

Seafire MkIII (Modified), No.1 Sqn, Irish Air Corps, 1947 - 1955
 
Completely new version.
 
The Irish Air Corps bought 12 Seafires in 1947; these were denavalised by removing the 'hook' and at least in most cases, locking the wing-fold joints. They were numbered from 146 to 157. There is still considerable debate among the Irish aviation historians as to the precise colour used; they were clearly painted overall with a greenish-grey shade, possibly MAP Light Slate Grey. No detailled information is available.
 
I have included the serials for the 6 Spitfire T.MkIX aircraft also acquired by the Irish Air Corps, in order to make up a suitable minimum number of decals. These go from 158 to 163.
 
For use ONLY with SF2 including the Israel Expansion Pack. This will NOT work if you do not have the stock TW Spitfires installed and working.

Spitfire MkVb, VCS-7, US Navy, 5th - 26th June 1944.
 
Because of the high vulnerability of the SOC and OS2U spotter aircraft normally carried on board US Navy cruisers and battleships, it was felt that naval artillery spotters during the landings in Normandy would need aircraft better able to defend themselves against German fighters. As a result, 17 pilots were drawn from the cruisers CA 31 Augusta, CA 37 Tuscaloosa, CA 71 Quincy and the battleships BB 33 Arkansas, BB 35 Texas and BB 36 Nevada; they were affected to the Air Spotting Pool, based at RNAS Lee-on-Solent, along with two RAF Spitfire squadrons, Nos. 26 and 63, and four FAA Seafire squadrons, Nos.808, 885, 886 and 897.
 
VCS-7 became operational on 28th May 1944.
 
During operations, all aircraft were pooled, which meant that in fact, any pilot from any of the seven Spitfire/Seafire units could find himself flying any Spitfire or Seafire available, regardless of any theoretical 'ownership'. As a rule, aircraft operated in pairs, one spotting, the other covering.
 
After three weeks of highly successful operations, VCS-7 was stood down on 26th June as the fighting moved beyond the range of the ships' guns.
 
As they were on temporary loan from the RAF, all the aircraft used by VCS-7 retained their RAF markings.
 
For use ONLY with SF2 including the Israel Expansion Pack. This will NOT work if you do not have the stock TW Spitfires installed and working.

Seafire MkIII, No.887 Naval Air Squadron Fleet Air Arm, HMS Indefatigable, Okinawa, April 1945 - Japanese Coast, August 1945.
 
It is a little known fact that aircraft of the Royal Navy British Pacific Fleet fought at Okinawa and participated in the final air attacks on the Japanese mainland.
 
All serial numbers included in this package correspond to Seafire MkIII aircraft which served with 887 NAS at some point between late 1944 and the end of the War. Where possible, known individual numbers have been allocated to the correct aircraft. These are marked with an asterisk in the loadout menu.

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.

Mikoyan Gurevych MiG-29EE Força Aerea Portuguesa for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2
 
I modded the MiG-29 from The Mirage Factory to make it look like a fictional fighter for the portuguese air force.
 
 
BACKGROUND
The cooperation with IAI in developing the MiG-29I Shu'Al demonstrated the Mikoyan Gurevych OKB the possiblities and rentability of exporting the plane to the West with some modifications.
 
As a modern and at the same time relatively cheap fighter compared to other western planes, the MiG-29EE was the result of the adaptation of the plane to the needs of the western air forces. The abbreviation EE stands for 'Europe Export'. Since the cold war was over and the "enemy" was no longer existing, Mikoyan Gurevych OKB had no problems in offering one of the best planes of the former Soviet Union to european countries.
 
Portugal, whose military still suffered from budget restrictions, decided to replace the expensive F-16 with the more affordable MiG-29EE and equipped the 201st Squadron with this type while the 301st had to wait to replace the Dragao with the MiG-29.
 
 
INSTRUCTIONS
 
1. Drop the folders into your MODS Folder. If asked to overwrite, click yes.
 
 
CREDITS
 
All credit belongs to ALL the members of The Mirage Factory for their fantastic work they did with this model.
Special credit goes to Oliver Anguille for his effort and hard work. May he rest in peace.
 
Also big thanks to dast24 for porting the plane to SF2-Standards.
 
 
Old readme from the original SFP1-Model is included.
 
 
For any further questions don't hesitate to contact me.

This is my very first camo skin never uploaded, revamped and polished.
So it's not my best work.
It will fit well in Your Yom kippur standard campaign without any other edit.
I decided to upload because I was bored of the stock silver planes with
Algerian roundels and soviet red numbers....
 
Install: as usual.
 
Credits: it seems to remember I followed a very old skin scheme, but I wasn't able to find.
 
Happy we're back.

Avia B-71 plane for Strike Fighters 2 by ThirdWire
 
B-71 was license build Tupolev SB-2 used by czechoslovakia
 
unfortunately it came too late
 
Czechoslovakian Air Force received 60 Russian-built SB with Hispano Suiza 12Ybrs engines in April and May 1938. Another 101 bombers and 60 reconnaissance aircraft were license-built Avia B-71 but only 101 were built.

Yak-38MP Forger-D
*****************
This mod is made for SF2NA.
 
----------------------------------------------------------
I.
 
The Yak-38MP was a project to fit the Yak-38 with a modern radar system. It was intended to arm this plane with R-24 (AA-7C and D) and R-60M (AA-8B) missiles.
The Yak-38MP based on the Yak-38M.
 
The project was canceled because the Yak-41 Freestyle was expected to enter the service in late 80th.
The same fate had had the Yak-39 project, which was a Yak-38MP with larger wings and afterburner engines which should reach supersonic speeds.

Yak-38M Forger-C
*****************
This mod is made for SF2NA.
 
----------------------------------------------------------
I.
 
The Yak-38M was the modernized version of the Yak-38. It got stronger engines and an improved weapon system. It was able to deliver missiles of the KH-25 missile family.
First flight was in 1982.
It entered the service in 1985.
 
 
To make it possible to start from the carriers of the Kiev class i had to modify the Kiev's too. I moved the starting position and added a lot of arrestor wires, so that the Yak's can land on deck. It is not perfect.
Vertical take off is at the moment impossible, because the FM cant handle lift engines very well. Only the AI plane on start possition 3 makes a vertical take off, but i dont know why. It is not intended to do so.

***************** German Tornado ECR/IDS/Marine Pack for SF2 V1.0 ************************
 
This pack contains 4 German Tornado aircraft with all the sounds, effects and weapons etc necessary for use. Although initially based on Dave, AD and Sundowners Tornado GR1/GR4 pack (in which I was involved) this pack includes new models, converted SF1 skins and improved ini's over the original GR1/GR4 release. It has been tested in both a Full Merged Nov '11 and a single SF2:E Nov '11 game with no problems found (not tested in SF1).

Aircraft Specific Info (in-game, not accurate to real life timeline) -
---------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Tornado ECR '90 (1990-2020) - The SEAD/Electronic Warfare version of the Tornado IDS, this comes with a much more powerful ECM pod than the IDS, no Cannons and a FLIR turret under the nose.
 
Tornado IDS '00 (2000-2020) - This is the Mid-Life Update for the IDS which gives it precision weapons like 2000lb Laser-JDAM, GBU-24, IRIS-T (post '06) and post '09 the Taurus Stand-Off Missile. It also has a secondary function in an Anti-Ship/SEAD role after the disbandment of the last Navy IDS squadron in 2005 allowing it to carry the new Kormoran 2 ASM. This comes in 2 paint schemes, an all-over grey for AG51 or a green camo design for JaboG 31 so I've allowed you to change the fuel tank colour at the loadout screen based on which skin you prefer.
 
Tornado IDS '79 (1979-1999) - The standard IDS for the Luftwaffe it carries a fairly limited payload due to the politics of the era but does come with the awesome MW-1 Dispenser in either Anti-Runway or Anti-Tank/Personnel varieties (AI Has trouble using it as it designed for 100ft deployment and AI can't go that low).
 
Tornado Marine/Navy IDS '82 (1982-2005) - The Naval version of the IDS, it's primary mission is Anti-Ship/SEAD and it was the only IDS capable of carrying larger 1000lb bombs and the Kormoran ASM until their disbandment started in 2000 lasting until the last Sqn went in 2005. It also carries it's defensive pods on the opposite wings to every other Tornado User.
 
 
OTHER INFO
-----------
 
Loadout Screen -
--------------
 
As per the Other Tornado Italian/GR1/GR4 packs most of the defensive pods & A-A missiles are combined in Weapons group 1 so please don't use the in-game loadout screen to change anything in Group 1.
 
 
Issues -
------
 
Due to the Political issues in Germany in the 80's the Luftwaffe's armory's were pretty bare and contained very few different weapon types which is why the loads outs are all very similar so be perpared for lots of MK82 Snake-Eye and BL755 sorties until 2000 and the arrival of the IDS '00 with it's enlarged weapons types.
 
The Taurus missile is using the old Storm Shadow model as it's the only one square enough to simulate it.
 
The Flir Turrent on the ECR has no display.
 
With the IDS '79 Strike loadout the AI can't use the MW-1, they just pull up into a stall when trying to use it.
