Add-On Cockpits

IL-28 Beagle cockpit v1.0
by Stary
30.05.2013
This is cockpit for soviet Il-28 jet bomber.
Comes with build-in experimental, yet working and accurate bombsight. An evolution of idea I had back in 2008 or so...
The bombsight switches on automatically when you select air to ground ordnances (including guns).
Selecting caged mode switches you back to pilot's seat.
Minor changes to data.ini to make guns separate for the ammo counters to work etc.
Made and tested in Jul12 full-merged installation, so it's preferable setup. Anyway you'll need stock Il-28 Beagle for this (but can be used with other planes, as fits you taste)
Has NOT been tested in latest May13 install, you have been warned. Should work ok though
Credits:
TK,Thirdwire for keeping the PC series still alive
CombatAce community for being great bunch of people
Installation:
Unpack to your stock IL-28 folder, overwrite.
Legal info etc:
CA Freeware License apply. Feel free to tweak/repaint/re-release in other mods, just give me credits.
Not to be used in any sort of payware.
Have fun

This is stand-in cockpit for soviet YAK-28B jet bomber.
This is basically slightly reworked and "modernized" Il-28 cockpit to be used in radar-equipped soviet jet bombers (-28I, -28L etc. AND twin engine interceptors, I'm looking at you Farmer!) the one used here being Yak-28B.
you can grab Yak-28B Brewer here:

Selecting caged mode switches you back to pilot's seat. For ease of use I placed backup radar screen in the bombsight "compartment".

MiG-19P / MiG-19PF cockpit
 
please read the readme.txt for more informations

MiG-19S / MiG-19SF cockpit
 
read the readme for installation informations etc

This is cockpit for La-9 / La-11 soviet fighter planes
 
read the included readme.txt
 
and thanks to SFP1Ace for some valuable informations

This mod supplies generic RWR symbols that modders may use to represent ships. Until now, all ship radars would show up as <U> ("unknown") on TEWS-equipped aircraft. With this you will be able to distinguish between general categories of vessels.
 
This symbology is not meant to be 100% realistic, and does not display individual radar names or ship class names. Once you install the mod, when flying applicable aircraft around radar-emitting ships, you will see the following symbols on your RWR display:

PT = Patrol boat
FF = Frigate
DD = Destroyer
CC = Cruiser
LS = Amphibious assault ship
CV = Aircraft carrier
BB = Battleship
Æ = Aegis-equipped vessel

Please see the readme file for complete installation instructions and more details. Enjoy!
 
***Note that this ONLY works for the SF2 series; the first gen games don't support this sort of mod.***
 
As a bonus, I included a tga file with the official US Navy hull number fonts. Perhaps any other modders making ships will find it useful.

This mod replaces the stock HUDs in the TW SF2E A-10A's with the early HUD displays
for 70's era A-10 avionics.

This is an avionics update for The Mirage Factory F-5E, updated for the latest SF2 version by
paulopanz
 
 
Available at http://combatace.com...-f-5e-tiger-ii/
 
Content:
+ data ini updates
+ Cockpit updates
+ New F-5E-type sight and radar

Small enhancement of the stock F-105 gunsight...

This pack contains 8 "generic" World War 2 era cockpits for use in WW2 installs.
 
Tested in Series2 ONLY, no idea about Gen1 compatibility!!! You have been warned!!!
 
Info:
 
"Generic" means these cockpits are somewhat similar to various real life ones, and are meant as replacement ones for aircrafts that by default have no custom, specific cockpits of their own. Rivet counters and/or WW2 experts please note that thesse cockpits do NOT represent any specific real-life models/variants, so if you seek for ultimate realism in modelling this pack is NOT for you.
 
These cockpits are as follows, with the planes I use them as a guide:
 
EARLY_WW2_COCKPIT_1 -for MartletII, Martlet III
EARLY_WW2_COCKPIT_2 -for Macchi202 and other, italian gauges
EARLY_WW2_COCKPIT_3 -british fighters
EARLY_WW2_COCKPIT_4 -FiatG50, open cockpit with italian gauges
 
MID_WW2_COCKPIT2 -generic, light fighter
MID_WW2_COCKPIT3 -P-39D, maaaybe some soviet fighter..?
 
Late_WW2_COCKPIT1 -P-47D, heavy ground attack aircraft, single engine bombers
LATE_WW2_COCKPIT2 -like above but with bubble canopy, for late models of Jug, other heavy fighters

Early soviet jet cockpit
 
FOR STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 with Expansion Packs 2!
 
YOU NEED EXPANSION PACK 2 TO USE THIS MODIFICATION!
LOD file not included!

version 0.5 working beta
07.12.2010
 
This is simple repaint of stock Hunter F.1 cockpit to make it stand-in for early soviet jets.
Working beta, not historically accurate at the moment at all, bares minimal resemblance with Mig-9, Mig-13, Yak-15 or Yak-23 cockpits.
Currently gauges are still in english (I know very, very little russian, curses mostly...) and still calibrated to knots/feet/gallon units.
No gauges or parts movement tricks at the moment, just basic repaint.

This is simplified Mig-17PF/PFU cockpit. Right now it is released as final beta so there are some issues with this pit, but generally it's working.
 
Avionics are slightly what if, but works ok given the limitations in portraying of Red side birds.
 
Read included readme for requirements, credits and instalation info!

This is a single-engine Egyptian-Modified Vampire jet cockpit for SFP2 with single engine gages based on the Thirdwire Meteor cockpit. You need SFP2 Israel and expansion pack.
 
It is a combat veteran and fought air to air combat against Israeli Meteors, Dassault Ouragans, Mystere IVAs and later against Pakistani F-86 Sabres according to sources.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
It has gages moved, and BMP gages and bitmaps added from multiple Vampire color cockpit photos and the DH Vampire cockpit manual.

COMBAT HISTORY:
 
MIDDLE EAST:
 
First Middle East jet combats occurred in 1955.
 
September 1, 1955, - 2 Egyptian FB.52 vampires were shot down by an Israeli Gloster Meteor.
 
Another Egyptian FB.52 Vampire was shot down by a Dassault Ouragan April 12, 1956.- Shlomo Aloni, Arab-Israeli Air Wars 1947-82, p23.

By 11:00hrs also four Vampires strafed the Israeli column near al-Thamed, causing even more damage. They were followed by more Vampires and also Meteors of the 5 Sqn EAF, all of which were escorted by the MiG-15 and hit the Israelis very hard.
 
The Israelis claimed destruction of four Vampires

INDO-PAKASTANI War
 
On September 1, 1965, during the Indo-Pakistani War, IAF Vampires saw action for the first time with India. No. 45 Squadron responded to a request for strikes against a counter-attack by the Pakistani Army (Operation Grand Slam) and four Vampire Mk 52 fighter-bombers were successful in slowing the Pakistani advance.
 
However, the Vampires encountered two Pakistan Air Force (PAF) F-86 Sabres, armed with air to air missiles; in the ensuing dogfight, the outdated Vampires were outclassed. One was shot down by ground fire and another three were shot down by Sabres.[17] The Vampires were withdrawn from front line service after these losses.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
FIGHTING IN THE VAMPIRE:
 
The Vampire had a lower wing loading than the Meteor and therefore should be able to out turn the Meteor in a turning fight all other things being equal. The Meteor being much faster, faster climbing and more powerful will dominate a vertical fight.
 
1. Keep fast against enemy prop fighters...you are faster than them, but you lose energy fast and can't regain it easily.
 
2. Try to out turn enemy jets...you usually have a lower wingloading. The enemy Meteor is much more powerful than you, much faster than you, has a much higher climb rate then you and he can dominate a vertical fight.
 
The Vampire reportedly had beautiful handling qualities but was extremely underpowered.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
DIRECTIONS:
 
REQUIREMENTS: SFP2 Israel2 and expansion pack.
 
Directions:
1. Download folder
2. Backup everything in Vampire52 folder (This has new Egyptian loading and hanger screens, and newini. and cockpit.ini as well as a new cockpit).

These are only E and F specific cockpits that are on the Block II airframes:
 
Key notes when installing:
 
- Delete your existing Cockpit and Avionics files. However, if you have some custom mods you don't have to install the AVIONICS file as it's just to make sure an Avionics file is present
- When selecting Air To Air Mode the RWR appears in the middle, just below the HUD. Selecting the NAV or "caged" mode will bring the keypad back.
 
Changes:
- new shape lower right panel with other adequate elements
- "killed" the clock on the lower panel
- removed backup RWR completely
- all DDI's are now color screens
- center screen has two modes, NAV which is basically the same as the early version and EW using simplified DDI function for which I'm sure newer versions can, screen is monochrome btw.

NOTE: There is NOT a EA-18G specific cockpit included....
 
All work (except file managin) done by Brain32

*updated to 1.1 to better mesh with lock tone mod, is now much quieter*
 
Inspired by the distinctive RWR audio cues used in Janes F-15, I re-created a similar sound using Audacity (though keep in mind, I havn't played F-15 in a decade...)
 
This mod may have no grounding in reality, but damnit, it sounds cool to me, so I am uploading it in case anyone else is interested in it.
 
For an example of it in action, skip ahead to 1:50 to hear the tracking audio, which switches to the launch audio at 2:00 at

 
 
 
Installation: Unzip the 'Sounds' folder into your SF2 mods folder (by default C:\Users\[username]\Saved Games\ThirdWire\[executable name])
If using one of the alternate sounds, rename the chosen file to simply RWRLockSound.wav or RWRTrackSound.wav as appropriate.
To uninstall, simply delete RWRLockSound.wav and RWRTrackSound.wav from the 'Sounds' folder

Yak-23 Flora cockpit
 
For SF2 series with Expansion Pack 2!
 
EXPANSION PACK 2 required for Yak-23, you won't find this little day-only, stay-away-from-clouds fighter in any other release than Exp2!
(However you can use this pit in other planes like Yak-15/Yak-17 just fine)
 
Extract to your Aircraft folder, overwrite. Supplied data includes just modification to guns, making them two individual groups.

F-22 Cockpit for Strike Fighters 2
 
----------------------------------------------
Since the AFX cockpit essentially was an F-22 cockpit with changes, I decided to make a proper F-22 pit and finally got around to doing so. Also wanted to capitalize on latest developments. You'll see.
 
----------------------------------------------
Installation:
 
Drop the files into your F-22 folder.
 
----------------------------------------------
Known Issues:
 
The weapons display indicator is retarded and doesn't accurately count down the AAMRAM's. I tried various ways but none would work to my satisfaction.
 
Wing stations are not supported on the weapons display. If there is sufficient demand I could add them back but it's a handful.

This is repaint of Jaguar A cockpit.
 
It gives the cockpit more depth and generally better look (I hope)
There are some innacuracies and omissions so please do not count the rivets!
 
Also due to the way the original mesh is mapped some parts couldn't be improved. Also because of this I decided to paint the canopy framing monocolour gray.
 
 

This is a high resolution repaint of old (2005) cockpit of Super Etendard by Foxmonter, as used in various types of Mirage F1 in Operation Desert Storm.
 
Due to the way this cockpit mesh is mapped I had to make one big 4096x4096 file for most of the main parts. Also other parts are repainted or adjusted.
 
There are some innacuracies and omissions so please do not count the rivets!
After all it's SE pit standing-in for Mirage F1 and to be honest je ne parle pas français...
 
 

F-111 Pit repaint for SU-24.
 
This is my attempt to repaint NormanKnight's F-111 pit to represent the Su-24's pit.
 
It is no way accurate as it is what it is, a repaint of an existing pit.
 
There are some issues, some of the translations are probably (definitely) wrong!
Any Russian speakers are welcome to offer alternative suggestions.
 
The artificial horizon and HSI are both of the western type not Russian, this is due to the existing model and my lack of ability to even know if it could be changed.
 
I would like to thank NormanKnight for creating the F-111 pit, Fastcargo for allowing me to use it.
 
Sony Tuckson for allowing me to use a couple of textures from the Mirage Factory's Mig 29 Pit.
 
ErikGen for allowing me to use some of his radar screen textures from his TU-128.
 
The whole Combatace community for generally helping me out in the past.
 
And finally TK for producing this game and allowing it to be moddable.
 
Freeware use only.
 
Hope you enjoy this mod.
 
Mikeymead.
 
Updated version: Changed file from 7zip to winzip as some people were having problems extracting the original.

A-10C Cockpit v1.0 For SF2:Series only.
 
From the Original A-10A Cockpit by Kesselbrut.
 
Includes: Changes to Hud Avionics, Smoothed Canopy Frame and Mirrors, new Instruments, Gauges and Digital Control
Sets. New Textures, and Seat added. And almost finished rear Frame for Rear View.
Two partially working MFD's with TV Screen and Map Compass. View A10CPit.JPG for Details of working instruments
and more. Uses Limited RADAR for ranging Aircraft as stand-in for LASER Ranging. SF2 engine lacks proper Laser
Ranging Air to Ground for GunsightRangeBar.
 
WIP Needs: Digital Clock, Proper MFD Function and DEPRESSIBLE PIPPER. will be added as SF2 Engine Progresses.
Might add a Control Stick with Pilot Hands.
 
Credits to:
Kesselbrut and A-10 Team for the Original Pit.
ravenclaw_007 for helping with the ILS Cockpit.ini entries. And The A-10 ACES II Seat.
Crusader for pointing me to ravenclaw_007's Work.
Paladrian for helping me with MFD Texture display problems in 3DS Max.
all other Changes by Spectre8750.
 
NOTES:
The ILS "MARKER BEACON" Light works in that it is set for 5degrees +-. I noticed that it may blinc while rolling,
Ignore that. The Marker Beacon light comes on if you are 5 deg or more off course. You can use the Left MFD Map for
direction to Waypoints and even final approach. The Gear "STEERING ENGAGED" Light is set to go off at 80 Knots.
The Gun Rounds indicator is located center bottom third of the left MFD. The Countermeasures Set Control (CMSC)
Always indicates "Active" and Changes to "LAUNCH" when it detects a Radar Guided Missile launch. Be Carefull, not
all Launches are detected. When the Jammer is active it will indicate "OPR" for operative. The Threats will be
indicated by "SRCH" "AIR" "GRND" "AAA" "SAM" just right of "OPR".
 
Installation:
 
Req: SF2:Series with either Stock A-10A or A-10C of WPNSSGT's 2.5 or A-10A 3.0 addon.
 
Delete the cockpit folder in your A-10 folder
 
copy all files into your "/objects/aircrafts/A-10?" folder
 
 
Have fun

Hello !
My little tuning for A-6E Intruder cockpit
