SF2 F-104C Vietnam Pack
By Viper63a
------------------------------------------------------------------
BOTH SF2E AND DLC28 ARE REQUIRED FOR THIS MOD!
------------------------------------------------------------------
This pack WILL NOT replace stock F-104s, but it may conflict with any other F-104 mod you may have installed - SO BACK UP unless you crave drama! SF2 Europe needs to be merged with your Vietnam install and DLc28 is REQUIRED, REALLY. If you don't have these, this mod will not work for you.
------------------------------------------------------------------
This pack contains a small sub-set of the "SF2 C/N/R/F-104A/B/C/D/F/G/J/S Starfighter Super Pack" (see link below). Separated it for users who did not want to install the full F-104 Super Pack just to get the Vietnam era F-104s. You don't need the full pack to use this Vietnam Pack.

I take NO CREDIT for the work contained in this pack. I made some of them better (All new skins, decals...etc), but I was not the creator. I don't do what I do NOT to take credit, but to give it and appreciate the other contributors who make Combatace a great site for SF2. So here is my humble contribution to the collective. Thank you all for your mod packs!
------------------------------------------------------------------
This pack includes F-104D (circa 1965) Vietnam era skins, new pilots, hanger, loading, loadout, decals and everything else you need to start flying the F-104s for Vietnam...
F-104C_65
------------------------------------------------------------
Installation:
------------------------------------------------------------
As always, I recommend that you back up your mod folder before you install any new mod...just in case.
* To install, simply unzip and copy the contents of the "To_Mod_Folder" folder to your StrikeFighter2 mod folder and Overwrite (if needed).
My StrikeFighter2 mod on Win97 64-bit was..(yours may be different)...

F-4E AUP pack
Includet:

- new cockpit
- HAF specific weapons
- update for all greek F-4E mady by me and all greek F-16 from Team Viper , with this updates this aircraft can use the new HAF specific weapons

Hangar and Loading screens are in 1920 x 1080
Installation:
- IF YOU HAVE A F-4E_AUP FOLDER PLEASE RENAME OR REMOVE IT BEFOR YOU INSTALL THIS MOD
- Drop all files into your mod folder the way they are setup in this pack and overwrite if ask to
- If you are unsure about the way how mods are installed, check the knowledge base at CombatAce !
NOTE
i added the OPTION folder with the optional cockpit lod and removed air refueling lights because i use this lights in the standart cockpit as indicators for the drop tanks ( full - on , emty - off )
if you like the cockpit more " realistic " just overwrite the cockpit lod with the optional one
the HAF specific weapons are made based on the official weapons list from the Greek Air Force , weapons missing are the GBU-50 and AGM-154 they will be released on a later point in time
in the weapons pack you will not find any ECM-pods , the reason for that is simply that there is no evidence that the HAF is using any ECM-pods on the F-4E or F-16 except the build in DIAS system
if one day the HAF is using any type of ECM-pod i will add them to the pack

This addon works only with my WeaponPACK (included in rar file). All of weapon stations are made as specific station code and will work only with this weapon pack.
Animations.
LANDING GEAR - Nose light on/off at any speed. Don't forget to retract before shooting.
ANIMATION 8 - front left door (ext and cockpit view)
ANIMATION 9 - front right door (ext and cockpit view)
ANIMATION 10 - rear door. (disabled in _data.ini file)
ANIMATION 1 - If needed you can activate old XM70 sight to aim hydra rockets. In fact MD500 defender was offered for sale also with M27 Minigun and XM70 sight.
Here on Defender will apear when switching to AG mode. In TOW Defender gunsight by animation key 1.
By pressing Arresting Hook activation key you can switch do TOW gunner.
Like in previously realased loaches here also you can realy fly low and slow. This helo got little more power due to higher weight compared to old OH-6A
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. Without fake flaps and airbrakes.
Important here is to control ac using rudder and vector thrust control.
Pack comes with two versions of Defender. First is basic recon version. Second is aircraft equipped with TOW missile system.
Skins are generic for Republic of Korea Army Aviation.
All numbers as far as I know are are historicaly correct and are based on available photos. Just few numbers, but can be updated later.
Weapons.
TOWs - BGM-71 A/B/C/D.
M260 7-tube rocket launcher with several different warheads.
M27 minigun subsytem
Enjoy.

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.
Generaly model is almost the same as old one. My work was to add some parts here and there (floaters, new sights, new pylon, 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 is third part of my gazelles rebuild. It represents Westland built versions of - Gazelle B, C and D used by United Kingdom military units.
Few changes to previous French model.
This mod represents few versions of Gazelle used in United Kingdom military.
HT.2 Training, liaison, transport helicopter used by Royal Navy
HT.3 Training, liaison, transport helicopter used by Royal Air Force
AH.1 Army Air Corps helicopter used as recon, liaison, light transport.
While HT.2 and HT.3 are pure slick and clean helos. AH.1 version saw some combat.
Thats why in this pack it is seperated in few parts.
First is main AH.1 general helicopter used by Army Air Corps and Royal marines. This is unarmed version, here can be found in 3 versions -early, late with Ferranti AF532 observation sight and late version vith external recon pod.
AH.1 as all british gazelles are unarmed helicopters used mainly for recon duties. However durin Operation Corporate some of Army Air Corps and Roya Marines helos were equipped with Matra six shot rocket pods (there were no aiming sight or anything like that instaled) Still due to reports it never saw combat use. Only training shooting.
******************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:
There is no weapons. It is only floaters, engine filter, suppresed exhaust and some other stuff that can be added to helo, just for look.
Only offensive weapon added is in seperate folder for Operation Corporate. Matra LRF2 Rocket pods.
NOTE.
In AH.1 - 86 ver. you have acces to recon pod and search light. By loading search light you will have search light "beam" while light are one. But unfortunately light source will apear also when searchlight is not loaded. Anyway this is just experimental thing here.
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.
ANIMATION 4 - Floaters for 'emergency' landing only below (40?) km/h and only when loaded on aircraft.
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.
There is just few skins but lot of use of it in few units. So it is more about decals assigned.
All serial numbers are based on available photos documents and are historicaly correct.
I was trying to put all real units with real codes/numbers for specific year. Not always easy.
There is still some numbers missing.
Skins are made for early and late paint used by Army Air Corps and Royal Marines.
Inside there is seperate folder Called "Operation Corporate' and 'Operation Granby'
Inside you will find whole helicopter pack needed to fly in specific instal for Falklands and Desert Storm mods.
Pilots - best to use is OldDiego's pilots.
Two repainted versions of pilots are provided.
Those are repaint of OldDiego's great usn pilots.
Nation for this helo depends on version. There is Royal Navy (alos for Royal Marines) and RAF. Also new nation ARMY AIR CORPS is added in specific txt file. This should be added (by copy text from provided file) to nationlist.ini

This is a conversion/repainting/repackaging of Pasko & Column5’s F-106A to the newest SF2 standards. It was tested with SF2NA July2013 release, hard settings.
It contains 8 skins, the weapons and the relative effects:
5th FIS late 70ies
27th FIS early 60ies
49th FIS early 80ies
84th FIS early 60ies
87th FIS late 70ies
94th FIS 1969 Korea Deployment
95th FIS early 60ies
318th FIS late 70ies
AIM-4F Falcon SAHM
AIM-4G Falcon IRM
AIR-2A Genie AHM
Vulcan M61A1 Gun Pod
360Gal external Fuel Tanks
Aerial Nuke Effect
The skins are basically Sundowner’s HiRes textures with small improvements. Brand new decals and serial numbers are my own work, except few patch decals, which are still Dave’s ones. Serial numbers correspond to real life, in accordance to Photo material and the Delta Dart Archive:
http://www.f-106deltadart.com/units.htm
FM is based on eburger68’s file included in OP Tainted Cigar, still heavily reworked and improved by me to suit the latest game engine. Cruise speed, manoeuvrability and energy bleeding seems to me now very much spot on.
The Weapons’s Data files are also revised: don’t pretend to hit anything manoeuvering with the AIM-4G... these are only supposed to hit straight flying Bombers or Black Bandits (landing or low on fuel non-fighting MiGs). The AIM-4F has better chances to hit an enemy fighter. The fuzing distance on both is set to 0.1m... I know the Falcons had no proximity fuse at all, but as the impact sensors were placed on the wings, about 10cm far form the (0,0) axis, it seemed to me a very good compromise.
The AIR-2 rocket is set as Active Radar Homing with very high counter measure and noise rejection. The war head is something bigger than the real 1.5kton. These alterations make the AIR-2 work as it is supposed to. Be sure to put the steering point straight in the middle before firing, as this weapon is supped to be a rocket and won’t turn that much.
One important advice: if you edit this weapon with TW’s Weapons Editor, once you save your changes the program will delete the entire [AerialNukeEffect] section in your data file! So please don’t forget to back up.
Aerial Nuke Effect is Lexx Luthor’s work, as far as I remember...
Keep in mind that the Weapon Station in the Data.ini are marked with Specific Station Codes “AIM4” and “AIR2”, just in case you are trying to use weapons from other Weapon Packs.
The external fuel tanks are set to be jettison type, as people with real life experience on the ‘Six’ says that even though they never were jettisoned in OP because of their good performance, still it was indeed every time possible.

Known Issues:
- The 3D model has not enjoyed any rework, so you will still see the known problems as:
- Shadow issue on the leading edge of both wings (wrong normals)
- Unsmoothed Canopy
- Lack of Bump Map
- Lack of Specular Map
- The Weapon Bay shows the animation only when firing from the rear Falcon Station (i.e. AIM-4G) because of a limitation of the game engine, as you can’t assign the same animation to different Weapon Stations...
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did and still do!

The Sukhoi Su-25 (NATO reporting name: "Frogfoot") is a single-seat, twin-engine jet aircraft developed in the Soviet Union by the Sukhoi Design Bureau.
It was designed to provide close air support for the Soviet Ground Forces.
The first prototype made its maiden flight on 22 February 1975. After testing, the aircraft went into series production in 1978 at Tbilisi in the Soviet Republic of Georgia.
Russian air and ground forces nicknamed it "Grach" ("Rook").

God bless CA.
