History
The idea for this aircraft comes from my Nazi Cold War timeline on my alternate history wikia.
The RAN proposed the acquisition of Essex class carriers to the Government in 1964 to replace the Majestic class HMAS Melbourne. The aircraft the RAN proposed was the F-4B Phantom.
Operating an F-4B from the relatively small deck of an Essex class carrier is problematic, to say the least. On the other hand, the F-4K Phantom modifications would enable the operation of a Phantom from such a small deck.
The F-4K entered service in 1969. Three squadrons operated the Phantom; 805 Squadron, which operated from HMAS Melbourne; 808 Squadron, which operated from HMAS Sydney; and 724 Squadron, which conducted the RAN's Phantom training from HMAS Albatross in Nowra, NSW. Both 805 and 808 Squadrons were homeported at HMAS Albatross. They initially served beside the RAN's A-4E Skyhawks. From 1972, the Phantom's counterpart was the A-7E Corsair II.
They served in the Vietnam War protecting supply convoys to North Vietnam to aid its fight against the Fascist regime in the South. They subsequently served in the Gulf War of 1995. After the war, the F-4K was replaced by the McDonnell Douglas FV-16C Wraith STOVL fighter.
The F-4K remained in service until 1995.

History
The RAN ordered the Phantom to replace the de Havilland Sea Vixen FAW.22 which had served on Australia's Audacious class carrier HMAS Melbourne R21 (ex-HMS Africa). They were delivered in 1969, and served with two squadrons, 805 Squadron, which was the operational squadron embarked on HMAS Melbourne, and 724 Squadron, which served as a training unit. Both were homeported at HMAS Albatross in Nowra, NSW. Where necessary, additional training was provided in RAAF Phantom FGR.22s with 2 OCU at RAAF Williamtown.
The RAN's Phantom FG.21s served with Commonwealth forces in the Far East and the Indian Ocean for many years, including sporadic skirmishes with Indonesian aircraft and ships. In 1982, HMAS Melbourne was assigned to aid the British effort to liberate the Falklands from Argentine occupation.
After the Falklands War, the Phantom FG.21 continued to serve. HMAS Melbourne was paid off in 1987. The surviving Phantom FG.21s were turned over to the RAAF to provide spares for the RAAF's Phantom FGR.22 force. The final flight of a Phantom FG.21 in RAN markings was at the Australian Bicentennial Airshow in 1988.

History
The idea for this aircraft comes from my alternate history site. It was first operated by this alternate Royal Canadian Navy in 1968.
The RAAF's primary strike aircraft for the sixties was the F-105 Thunderchief. During the Vietnam War, the RAAF used its Thunderchiefs to strike targets of strategic importance to the Saigon Fascist regime. However, German air defences in South Vietnam had taken their toll on the Thuds. With the F-111C suffering serious delays, the RAAF took what was available, the F-4 Phantom. This aircraft had just been introduced by the Royal Australian Navy. In Vietnam, the Phantom enjoyed a high level of success, and showed its multi-role capacity.
With the delivery of the F-111s, and their work up to full operational capability, the RAAF needed to find a mission for its Phantoms, or a buyer. The RAAF recommended early replacement of most of its F-104 Starfighters. The Government accepted this option, and the F-4M served as Australia's front line tactical fighter until the mid 1990s.
The wikia article for the aircraft itself is found here:

Introduction
The F-4M Phantom II (Phantom FGR.22) for the Royal Australian Air Force.
There are three versions of the F-4M in this mod.
TK's F-4M in RAF camouflage with Type A and Type B roundels. Squadrons represented include 2SQN, 3SQN, 12SQN, 30SQN, 75SQN, 76SQN, 77SQN, and 79SQN.

TK's F-4M_80 in RAF camouflage with Type A and Type B roundels and Barley Grey. Squadrons represented in RAF camouflage include 2SQN, 3SQN, 12SQN, 30SQN, 75SQN, 76SQN, 77SQN, and 79SQN. Squadrons represented in Barley Grey include 3SQN, 30SQN, 75SQN, 76SQN, 77SQN, and 79SQN.
History
The RAAF purchased the F-4M in order to support a large Commonwealth commitment to Malaysia and Singapore against the aggression of the PKI regime in Indonesia. The F-4M was initially intended to fit the gap between the RAAF's Mirage IIIO and BAC Eagle (TSR.2). In the event, the F-4M replaced the Mirage completely. The F-4Ms remained in service until the mid-1990s, when they were replaced by F/A-18 Hornets.

Notes
This aircraft can be combined with the US style skins in the another mod. The aircraft names are different. This mod add "FGR.22" to the name (in the British style), while the mod with US style skins is simply named "F-4M Phantom II".

English Electric Canberra B.Mk.53 'IDF' for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2
This is a very simple mod of the stock Third Wire Canberra B.Mk.6 to create a fictional export version in service with the Israeli Air Force during the 1956-1973 timeline.
The Canberra had an unusual offset cockpit and large frameless canopy and Kesselbrut's cockpit captures this perfectly. If you use the cockpit toggle function you'll effectively see the bomb aimer's point of view and, with a bomb selected, you'll see the IDF's top secret bombsight! You are recommended to try bombing from medium-high altitude (in a shallow descent) using this very accurate bombsight but don't forget to open the bomb bay doors!
INSTRUCTIONS
1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the Canberra53 folder into your Aircraft folder.
CREDITS
Thanks to Third Wire for a great little game/sim (I wish it was still being further developed).
Special thanks to Kesselbrut for the Canberra cockpit to which I've added a new bombsight tga.
And thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.

SA.34L1 Gazelle of Cypriot National Guard Ver 1.0 for SF2
This is a third party addon of SA.342 Gazelle helicopter.
The original flight model is standard as on many free to download helicopters modified by me. I am not using airbrakes or flaps but flying fast and slow is stil possible, even hovering with little practice.
It is designed for and works only in SF2 series. And will never work in SF1.

This is highly modified SA-341 Gazelle by BPAo (TMF). Lucky, thanks to Crusader I had access to original max file. So I could work a little on this great helo. At first I was planing only to rebuild middle east Gazelles to have some balance of power in Wings Over Israel game. But having oportunity to work on file brought me at this point. And I decided to go with French Gazelles first.
Generaly model is almost the same as old one. My work was to add some parts here and there (rwr,cable cutters, new athos, some internal parts, skids etc..). Rearanged animations and added new. Weapons/pylons are part of airframe. Ive added new rotor. Also I've rearanged UVW mapping. So basicaly skins are 70% new.
This mod represents Gazelle L1 as used by Cyprus National Guard. It was made on request of CA user. And with his help on ini edit I decided to put it here.
******************IMPORTANT******************
This addon works with my WeaponPACK (included in rar file). Most of pylons/launch rails are part of airframe. So in weapons folder you have to put only ini files. All of 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 availalbe.
Weapons included:
HOT-1,2,3 missiles.
Cocpits.
It is simplified and unified version of Gazelle cockpit.
In pit you can switch from pilot to co-pilot/weapon operator seat.
On co pilot seat you have access to 1x "binocular" sight Athos/Viviane. In HOT equipped version by selectiong HOT missile sight will lock on target as all HOT missiles are made as EOGR.
Animations and standard commands:
LANDING GEAR - Nose light deploy/retract at any speed.
ANIMATION 1 - right side door.
ANIMATION 2 - left side door.
ANIMATION 3 - rear doors.
Thereis also parking animation that works only when aircraft will be placed by game engine on airfiled as parked aircraft.
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. 341 version got little less power in engine.
Skins.
Two versons of Cyprus paint scheme. I decided to call it late and early.
Pilots - best to use is OldDiego's pilots.
Nation for this helo is new Cyprus. This should be added (by copy text from provided file) to nationlist.ini
