    1. Heinkel HE-100D1
      The Heinkel He 100 was a German pre-World War II fighter aircraft design from Heinkel. Although it proved to be one of the fastest fighter aircraft in the world at the time of its development, the design was not ordered into series production. Approximately 19 prototypes and pre-production examples were built. None are known to have survived the war.

    2. F-5GN(Marines) Sea Tiger (What if)
      *****************************************************
      This mod is made for SF2.
      ----------------------------------------------------------
      I. History (fiction)
      In 1969 there were decisive elections in West Germany. In reality, the Social Democrats won.
      A new foreign policy followed and a period of reduction of tensions between East and West.
      WHAT IF, the other side had won?
      What if the conservatives had won and Franz Joseph Strauß (an old bavarian Commie eater) would have become Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany?
      And so it starts.
      In 1969 Strauß was elected as Chancellor. A period of rising tensions between East and West
       started. To protect the sea lanes between Europe and America the west german parliament Bundestag decided to build up a west german carrier force consiting of 3 carriers.
      The american gouvernment was pleased and offered to sell 3 carriers of the Essex class (subclass Ticonderoga).
      The first ship which was handed over was CV-34 Oriskany in 1969. Renamed in R-22 Theodor Heuss it was core of the first west german carrier group. 1973 CV-38 Shangri-La became R-23 Heinrich Lübke (later renamed in Walter Scheel) and two years later CV-45 Valley Forge became R-24 Gustav Heinemann.
      The americans offered A-4 Skyhawk and F-8 Crusader as planes for the carrier group. The Bundesmarine accepted the A-4, but rejected the Crusader, because the Bundesmarine wanted a more multi role capable plane, not only a pure fighter.
      At this moment Northrop entered the competition and offered a navalised version of the brand new F-5E Tiger. Under the designation F-5GN (German Navy) it should be produced in America and Germany. The west german government accepted the offer and the serial production of the F-5GN started. During flight tests on the way the US Marines decided, that it would be a good idea to replace their old F-8 Crusaders with F-5GN planes. So the F-5GN became a Marine plane.
      Later, when the Marines retired their attack carriers the surviving F-5GN were transfered to Top Gun school.
      In west german service the F-5GN stayed till 1995. Then it was replaced by F-31 Mustang II.

    3. Hawker Hunter FGA.9D for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 
      This is a simple mod of the stock Hunter FGA.9 to create a fictional Hunter FGA.9D in service with Royal Air Force Middle East Command in the 1961-1972 timeline. It's really just a Hunter FGA.9 with a desert camo (two squadrons are featured; No.43 Squadron and No.112 Squadron with a sharkmouth) but it looks cool when on emergency deployment to Dhimar!

      INSTRUCTIONS
      1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the HunterFGA9D folder into your Aircraft folder.
      2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the HunterFGA9D folder into your Decals folder.
      That's it!

      CREDITS
      As always, thanks to Third Wire for a great little game/sim.
      And, finally, thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.

    4. Hawker Hunter FGA.9A for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2
      This is a very simple mod of the stock Third Wire Hawker Hunter FGA.9 to give a fictional Hawker Hunter FGA.9A fighter-bomber aircraft as it might have appeared in service with the Royal Air Force during the 1960's to early 1970's period with RAF Middle East Command and 'what if' markings are included for;
      No.8 Squadron
      No.20 Squadron
      No.43 Squadron
      In reality, all three squadrons have an association with operating the FGA.9 in the Middle East area during the 1960's but I've banged them together as a three-squadron wing and clad them in this 'Desert Pink' scheme initially adopted in 1961 for the Kuwait Crisis and then kept for their extended operations in Aden and Dhimar.

      INSTRUCTIONS
      1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the HunterFGA9A folder into your Aircraft folder.
      2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the HunterFGA9A folder into your main Decals folder.
      That's it!

    5. Reworked pack of RF-101A and C VooDoo.
      Generally old good VooDoo in new dresses.
      There are big changes in FM model thanks to baffmeister  in data.ini files - so Backup your original file. You might not like it.
       
      In game you will find new aircrafts under names
      *RF-101A VooDoo
      *RF-101C VooDoo '58
      *RF-101C VooDoo '66
      note that RF-101C '58 uses non-RWR - VooDoo A cockpit.
       
      All new skins in 3072x3072 resolution. New bump maps and specular maps. also in 3072.. plus decals to cover A and C models serial numbers.
      Pack contains several skin sets for both models. With all research, I was trying to be correct as much as possible.
      RF-101A have also one skin/decal set which contains few decal skin sets to cover experimental camo trials conducted in mid 60s. 
      Regarding colorful aircraft serial numbers: 
      54-1513 some say it was dark green some that really black. more info goes towards black so I painted it black (like Rolling Stones in 1966)
      54-1514 first was painted similar as represented in this pack, then it was repainted with adding some brown colors.
      54-1512 green/black camo with added brown during tests. 
      All this skin set with experimental camo trial is quite complicated and hard to put correctly in-game but I hope it will work fine for you.
      I did not include skin sets for VooDoo operated over Vietnam. This will come in a separate package. Eventually. One day.

      All new decals consisting of serial numbers for block 20-35 of A version and block  45-75 for C version. 

      Backup your original RF-101 Folders. Also Decals!

      yakarov - skins / decals / some small ini tweak

      May the VooDoo be with you.

    6. North American RF-100A for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2
      This is a very simple mod of the stock North American F-100A to create an RF-100A 'placeholder' until something better comes along.
      You'll need to have Expansion Pack 2 to access the F-100A.
      This little known Cold War warrior today can lay claim to being the world's first supersonic recconnaisance aircraft and I'd encourage you to read what you can about the handful of RF-100A's starting here;
      http://www.spyflight.co.uk/f100.htm
      Now I'm not a 3D modeller so I've done the best I could using MiG-21 recon pods to create the broadly similar shapes seen on the real RF-100A. To get them to load I've classified them as non-jettisonable fuel tanks so don't worry about dropping your tanks on the return dash - your precious wet film will still be there for the CIA boffins to examine. The RF-100A's carried no armament so I've deleted the 20mm cannon and removed the gun smoke but unfortunately the gun troughs are still there but you'll soon forget about that.
       
      INSTRUCTIONS
      1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the RF-100A folder into your Aircraft folder.
      2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the RF-100A folder into your Decals Folder.
      3. From the WEAPONS folder drag and drop the SLICK_CHICK folder into your Weapons folder.
      That's it!
       
      CREDITS
      As always, big thanks to Third Wire for the continuous improvement of a great little game/sim.
      A thank you to whoever created the MiG-21 Recon Pod and I hope you don't mind it being used here.
      And, finally, thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.

    7. When the Su-21S, codenamed "Flagpole" by NATO, appeared in 1978, it surprised the West which initially thought the plane to be just another failed Flagon update experiment or a testbed for systems of the recently identified Ram-L or Ram-K aircrafts.
      It turned out to be a long endurance PVO interceptor, possibly meant as an interim or low-cost alternative to these new designs, using a clearly Flagon inspired but brand-new airframe and, according to some intelligence, reusing existing systems to mitigate development risk.
      The aircraft is purported to use a single uprated R-35 derived from the one already used in PVO Floggers for propulsion, also borrowing the MiG-23P's radar, albeit with a larger antenna and more powerful emitter and using R-24 and R-60 missiles (up to 4 of each for a total of 8). It has been seen using up to 3 large drop tanks to accomplish its goal of long endurance patrol in the defence of the central and eastern regions of the USSR. Going against the trend of recent PVO-only interceptors, the Su-21 has 2 internal guns, sources suggesting these to be weirdly old-fashioned NR-30 with a hundred rounds each, as well as what seems to be decoy launchers.
      This surprisingly elegant design was joined in 1980 by a dual-seat version, initially thought to be a trainer, but proving to be another interceptor, the Su-21P. While the single-seater Su-21S became a not too uncommon sight on the Soviet Western frontier, the Su-21P was almost absent, being more common on the other borders, the exact operationnal reason remains unclear as these planes seem to be otherwise identical.
      Recent sightings suggest that the plane might not be a PVO exclusive as what are thought to be Su-21s were spotted in AV-MF colours, but not enough is known at present.
       
      NOTEWORTHY OBSERVATIONS
      - As it was started as an AI only asset for my own use, I kept the original F-15 cockpit.
      - Likewise, as an AI only asset for my own use, I haven't taken the time to produce hangar and loading pics.
      - I did the minimal amount of modification to the INI.
      - All skins can be used on both variants if you want to switch things around.
      - I have included AV-MF inspired skins in the Su-21P folder, for those that might be interested (waves at Stratos), they should be considered a not so hidden easter egg.
      - PSD templates specific to this Soviet version should be released alongside.
      - Read the damn READ ME for install.
      CREDITS
      Everyone at Cocas Aircraft Factory for their work on the plane, and especially Cocas for listening to my whin... errrr... suggestions and always nicely doing what I was pestering him to do (the guy is just too nice for his own good) and to Nyghtfall for giving us the templates without which I probably wouldn't have bothered to do something in a releasable form.
      AmokFlo for the ejection seats.
      The Trooper for the pilot reskin.
      (I believe) PauloPanz for the Dark Blue Soviet numbers decals.
      (I believe) Lindr2 for the R-24 and R-60.
      Any error or omission is just that, feel free to correct me if I forgot or misattributed anything, everything should be under the CA Fair Use umbrella unless I messed up.
      Have fun and good flight
