The Mirage Factory F-14 Tomcat Super Pack V1.32 22 APR, 2017
 
What it is:
This is the F-14 Tomcat Super Pack v1.32 Full. It includes addition of Direct Lift Control to the Flight Model, AI AIM-54 Phoenix Missiles, modified Iranian F-14 loadouts and other minor adjustments.
 
=================
 
Installation:
 
=====CAUTION=====
1. This was tested at July 2013 patch level, on an "All 5 Merged" install, as well as a "vanilla" SF2:NA install. Because it uses AvionicsF14A.dll, will require at least SF2:NA (or a TW F-14) to work! It will not work on Gen 1 sims, nor will it work correctly on pre-April 2012 installs! (Caveat: Avionics70.dll F-14D should work on pre-April patch levels).
 
2. It is HIGHLY recommended you back up your current F-14s to a back up folder. If you have extra skins installed and wish to keep your current folders, be ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN to delete the cockpit folders from each aircraft folder after backing up, as this install features updated cockpits, and retention of the old folders will lead to artifacting on the RWR, VDI, and other systems. If you have custom skins installed, be sure to back up your F-14(A/A+/B/D).ini to preserve the texture set data.
=================
 
1. Unzip the contents of the F-14SP_V132.7z file into a folder.
 
1a. If you have installed the Avionics70 F-14D, ensure you back up the .ini files if you haven't renamed the bird, since this install will overwrite F-14D_92, 96 and 06!
 
2. Open your Strike Fighters 2 mod folder (e.g., C:\User\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 Europe\...)
 
3. CAUTION: (ONLY FOR PRE-v1.30 VERSIONS), DELETE THE PRE-1.30 COCKPIT FOLDERS!!! FAILURE TO DO SO WILL CAUSE ARTIFACTING ON THE VDI, HSD, RWR, AND POSSIBLY OTHER SYSTEMS!!!
 
3.a. IGNORE STEP 3 IF YOU ARE UPDATING v1.30 OR v1.31
 
4. Copy the contents of the unzipped Effects, Flight, Missions, Objects, and Sounds folders into your SF2 mod folder, allowing all files to overwrite (Effects, Flight, Missions, Objects\Aircraft, Objects\Weapons, etc).
 
4a. (RECOMMENDED) Review the flight manual for tactical employment of the F-14.
 
5. Go fly!
 
NOTE:
If this either a new install or an update to the F-14SP v1.30 or 1.31, follow the above procedure, allowing all files to overwrite. If this is an update to 1.14-1.22, follow step 3; for in-depth instructions, follow the F-14SP V132 Installation Instructions.pdf
 
=================
 
EXTRAS:
 
-You may choose to use the Avionics70.dll F-14D for SAR mode on strike missions. If you wish to do so, see Section 6 of the F-14 SP Update V132 word document (Para 6.1-6.3) for install procedures and recommendations.
 
=================
 
Aircraft Included:

14. Adjusted Sedjil pylon allowable weight (was too low to equip missile)

Updated 757-200 for SF2
 
This is an update of YEYEYEs SF1 release for use in SF2. I have applied my usual technique to incorporate multiple airlines on one skin per era, with 4 eras from release in the
mid 1980s through the mid 1990s. More may become available later but templates are included for those that don't want to wait on me.
 
Installation
unzip, open folder titled "Mod Folder" and allow overwrites.
IF YOU HAVE A PREVIOUSLY MODDED FOLDER
1. delete flight and terrains from "Mod Folder". 2 open the "Specials Folder", insert the nations txt file into your Nations.ini and the terrain txt file into your
(whatever)Nations.ini in the needed terrain folder.
templates to wherever you keep files for modding, or delete if you do not desire to mod it
 
Known Issues
- It is a bit slow on the pickup. while it can take off from a smaller airbase, best to stick to larger fields
- It features the same pit as the 767 and other airliners. we do not have an in house pit that is more appropriate at the moment and so most airliners are stuck looking like generic WWII
bomber pits
- It has a seam on the bottom of the model that is very pronounced given the decal based marking system i use. however this should not be to noticeable unless you approach it from below.
When parked on the ground or viewed from the side or above the seam is not noticeable.
- for all above faults, remember: it is meant as eye candy, not an operational bird! enjoy taking off from Keflavik or Rhein Main and seeing many airlines parked on one ramp

Flying.
As with all my previous helos flying is quite easy. With little practice you can even hoover. Without fake flaps and airbrakes.
Important here to control is using rudder and vector thrust control.
Normaly throtle vector control on 88-89 degree increase power 55% wait little and then increase to 100% and helo will take off nicely.

Entirely based on the CF-105 made by FastCargo that can be found here :
http://combatace.com/files/file/13267-avro-arrow-cf-105-mark-ii/
 
I did the panel lines and rivets and did the skin for all 6 aircrafts (initial schemes plus RL-203 extended lines on wings).
 
You may use the skin files only or use it as an entire aircraft.
 
No decals as they were pre-production birds so everything is put on the skin itself.
 
All congrats shall go to FastCargo for putting up a great plane like this and the one's who helped him to make it a reality!

This is my C-130 Hercules Superpack.

Package Étendard
 
The Dassault-Breguet Super Étendard
 
The Dassault-Breguet Super Étendard (Étendard is French for "battle flag") is a French carrier-borne strike fighter aircraft designed by Dassault-Breguet for service with the French Navy. The aircraft is an advanced development of the Étendard IVM. The Super Étendard first flew in October 1974 and entered French service in June 1978. French Super Étendards have served in several conflicts such as the Kosovo war, the war in Afghanistan and the military intervention in Libya.
 
The Super Étendard was also operated by Iraq and Argentina, who both deployed the aircraft during wartime. The Super Étendard was used by Iraq to attack oil tankers and merchant shipping in the Persian Gulf during the Iraq-Iran War. Argentina's use of the Super Étendard and the Exocet missile during the 1982 Falklands War led to the aircraft gaining considerable popular recognition. In French service, the Super Étendard was replaced by the Dassault Rafale in 2016.

Comet KSK-aircraft "K". Experimental aircraft- analog cruise missile ?S-1. Comet Stalin.
History:
 
...The first flight carried out analog test pilot Amet-Khan Sultan from the Air Force Institute Chkalov airfield in January 4, 1951, then the test was moved to the Crimean Air Force test site. From May began air starts counterpart aboard the Tu-4. Total participated in the testing of four aircraft "K", which Amet-Khan, S.Anohin, F.Burtsev, V. Pavlov and P.Kazmin completed 150 flights. With the transition to working out starts on the real target was adjusted guidance and control system "Comet" - an analog of relief after walking on the target, like a combat missile, and only in the final section of the pilot shut off homing, took it over and come back to the airfield. All flights went well, although the pilots consider them extremely difficult. In one such flight analogue Amet-Khan escaped suspension with an inoperative engine that could only run at the water, the other - at Burtsev turning off the autopilot and he hardly overpowering servos, barely able to turn away from the target ship...
 
Test-Pilot Amet-Khan Sultan: - Soviet military flying ace, a veteran of World War II, twice Hero of Soviet Union(Total downed aircraft - 30 personal + 19 in group)
