USN SAM pack
This is a complete package of SAMs used by the United States Navy from the early cold war era to present. Currently 33 different missiles are included.
I have meticulously researched, modified, tested and compiled these weapons so that I and other ship modders have a selection of realistic standardized missiles (one might say "Standard Missiles":D) to work with.
The medium and long range missiles have been assigned updated efects from SF2NA, as well as new sound effects (included in the package), which sound much more appropriate than the default sound. I'm particularly proud of the VLS launch effect, which I made by ripping and editing official footage; I think it adds to the immersion tremendously.
Note that two stock weapons, the RIM-2F and RIM-66B, are replaced by this package. I usually try to avoid this, but the RIM-2F model did not sit on launchers correctly, and both weapons had some wildly incorrect data.
Optional data files for a few stock and third-party USN ships are included which adds new weapons as appropriate and adjusts radar strength to more realistic levels.
Please see the readme for instructions, credits, and other details. If you have any questions, comments, concerns, or constructive criticisms regarding this model, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you!

RSS SA-8/SA-N-4 Gecko Pack Beta
By Snailman
RED SIDE STANDARD SA-8/SA-N-4 Gecko Pack 0.3 Beta
============================================
This is a public test version. Please try out equipment playing from both sides. This pack has been tested against stock planes on stock terrain. Mostly on IsraelME, a more advanced map and for fast loading time :)
About 1000+ launch tests have been done on planes with various types with or without jamming equipment at low and high altitude. Ballistics have been also checked with HoneyFox's Missile Range Simulator.
Introduction:
-------------
To follow the philosophy behind Red Side Standard Weapons Pack (RSSW) I made an attempt to standardize the SAM systems as well. The SA-8 Gecko or Osa family is next in the row. It is a late addition into the game, appears in modern eras. It is the most sophisticated SAM system developed during the soviet era and it is still in service. The SA-8 is a low altitude system for short ranges - considered mobile by the game. In theory it would defend armored units, it can move and stops to shoot. Had the placement routine finished by TW... therefore the SA-8 needs user placement. Usage as Mobile AAA is NOT RECOMMENDED, since this system in large numbers can be more than lethal. Also keep availability dates in mind. A plane with no jammer or chaff is helpless against this system in the early 70's - and I did not modify Noise and CM resistance values.
Using multiple reference materials (both english an russian) we tried to fine tune the effectiveness of all the weaponry for satisfactory player game experience while keeping as much realism as possible. This provides more challenge playing on the blue side.
Effectiveness for guided missiles and radars have been tuned to provide realistic hit rate within the proper launch requirements. Because of game limitations, this means some technical parameters and values may be different from real world data.
We kept as much stock reference as we could to provide compatibility with original game standard (Naming, Types, etc).
Yet, there are no new ground objects included, but many new equipment is WIP for the final version.
Contents:
---------
- The SA-8 and SA-8B systems, with thoroughly revised characteristics (FM, Guidance, Ballistics etc)
- The SA-N-4 systems, with thoroughly revised characteristics (FM, Guidance, Ballistics etc)
- Kiev and Krivak ship classes equipped with modded SA-N-4 missiles (both early and late models)
- Weapon (and folder) names use common standard for convenience, clarity and simplified looks
- Ground objects use the stock TW 3D models
- Osa Launch sound. Modify soundlist.ini to use this wav file
Important changes:
------------------
- Missile ballistic data
- Radar search and track ranges and altitudes
- Early SA-8 (Osa) launcher with 4 missiles (No new 3D yet)
- Corrected SA-N-4 reload times.
Credits:
--------
Ground objects: TW
In-game testing: Everyone who gave us feedback and shared game experience! Thank you very much! I do count on more testing with the SA-2 and upcoming systems as well.
Work in progress:
--------
New launcher vehicle corrected 3D models (Early Osa)

Realistic SA-3 / SA-N-1 Goa Pack Beta
By tiopilotos
SF2 Realistic SA-3 / SA-N-1 Goa Pack Beta
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
This pack features the famous S-125 Neva (SA-3 Goa) and its naval version Volna-M (SA-N-1B). The following SAM systems are included:
S-125 Neva (SA-3A, 1961) - The first Neva variant. Limited export.
Volna-M (SA-N-1B, 1967) - First improved naval variant. Only missile included since Kashin ship is a stock stuff. You can use this missile only if you have installed SF2 North Atlantic!
S-125M Neva-M (SA-3B, 1970) - The standard Neva version with significant improvements over the first variant. Widely exported.
S-125M1 Neva-M1 (SA-3B+, 1978) - Upgrade for S-125M. Many S-125M operators received this modernization in the '80s.
S-125 Pechora-2M (2002) - Modern upgrade which included anti-stealth capability, improved performance against heavy jamming and new missiles with extended range.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
New features:
- New search and track ranges for fire control radars
- Launchers can perform 360 degree rotation and now all battery launchers can point at the target
- More realistic missile parameters. Some values may be higher due to game engine limitations mainly concerning guidance
- Fuze distances were increased and thus a hit is not a guaranteed kill
- New launch effect and sound
- Guidance was changed from Beam Rider to Semi Active Radar Homing. The basic type of guidance for SA-3 requires target tracking in azimuth, elevation and range
and when launched, the missile flies to a pre-calculated impact point, receiving signals from the fire control radar. This type is very similar to Semi Active Radar Homing.
- Dramatically improved performance especially in low altitude
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Things that need to be done:
- 1024x1024 missile skins
- Low Blow model so that we can use the original SA-3 radar instead of Flatface
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Known issues:
- Fire control radar can guide only one missile against a single target. Real SA-3 system could guide two missiles against a single target
- Low altitude performance is good enough but not at the desired level. Tests are still going on
- Missiles can fly longer at low altitudes as they tend to reach the Missile Duration time
- Userlist.ini has only Soviet as the only operator but temporarily this is not a problem since they appear as the red side in many terrains. The complete operators list
will be on the final version.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
REQUIREMENTS:
You must have installed SF2 North Atlantic to use the stock missile model otherwise you need to use the 3rd party models (included here).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Check read me file for installation instructions.
Lot of research and hard work was made to make this SAM as realistic as possible.
Keep in mind that is a beta version. When all the issues will be fixed in the desired level, we will have our final version! Stay tuned and enjoy as much as you can this SAM
and leave comments with your in-game experience in the support topic!

Cold East Ground Objects Bonanza Vol.1
By yakarov79
The first part of Cold East Ground Objects Bonanza mods for the SF2 series game.
First of all. This is not entirely a 'Plug and Play' mod.
Yes, some objects will appear in the game right away, but some will not - because some objects are meant to be used via the target editor.
In general, the whole mod is built for terrain enhancement - a lot of objects should be added in terrain TYPES and TARGETS. But of course, some like tanks, SAMs, AAA, etc will appear automatically in the game.
Having this in mind this mod is mostly for terrain builders, modders, and experienced users. If you are hoping for quick-click plug-and-play - this is not for you.
All objects have destroyed models added.
Gun files should be taken carefully - they are slightly modified by guuruu with decreased performance.
I believe all the gun files are provided and you should have them already, if I forgot something - well it happens sometimes. Sorry for that.
5 new weapons for some of the objects.
9M14M, 9M14P, 9M111, 9M113, 9M114
Part one contains mostly tanks, APCs, IFVs, SPAAG, and some support armored objects.
All of the skins are green, I added a few camo versions and a few extra but just for specific objects. NO Tan/Desret scheme. This might come in a more specific mod for specific terrains in the future.
Userlist ini files are just there but they might need editing for your own use.
Under any circumstances DO NOT mix these objects with ODS 30Aniversary Edition mod. ODS30AE objects are exclusive for ODS and differ in many ways from Cold East Ground Objects Bonanza.

Just in case - enjoy.

Cold East Ground Objects Bonanza Vol.3
By yakarov79
The third part of Cold East Ground Objects Bonanza mods for the SF2 series game.
First of all. This is not entirely a 'Plug and Play' mod.
Yes, some objects will appear in the game right away, but some will not - because some objects are meant to be used via the target editor. Especially in Vol. 3, you will find many 'eye candy' objects but you will find also basic trucks, fuel tankers, and artillery support objects
In general, the whole mod is built for terrain enhancement - a lot of objects should be added in terrain TYPES and TARGETS.
Having this in mind this mod is mostly for terrain builders, modders, and experienced users. If you are hoping for quick-click plug-and-play - this is not for you.
All objects have destroyed models added.
Gun files should be taken carefully - they are slightly modified by guuruu with decreased performance.
I believe all the gun files are provided and you should have them already, if I forgot something - well it happens sometimes. Sorry for that.
Part three contains mostly trucks cars and airfield objects in general, some artillery units.
All of the skins are green, I added a few camo versions and a few extra but just for specific objects. NO Tan/Desret scheme. This might come in a more specific mod for specific terrains in the future.
Some trucks have light emitters made by guuruu - made to work at night and be 'invisible' during the day - well effect ended up somewhere in the middle.. You decide - it is easily removable in data.ini.
Userlist ini files are just in a few objects but they might need editing for your own use.
If you have similar models from me - released years ago - do not mix them up. I recommend deleting all old files. Here you will find new updated models.
Under any circumstances DO NOT mix these objects with any ODS 30Aniversary Edition mod. Even in the future. ODS30AE objects are exclusive for ODS and differ in many ways from Cold East Ground Objects Bonanza.

ZPU-4 14.5mm quadruple anti-aircraft gun

AAA Tracers and bullets modification
FOR STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 Europe with Expansion pack 2
Made for and tested in SF2 all titl mergedwithes merged with Expansion Packs 1&2
by Stary
version 1.0
06.12.2010
This little modification changes the number of tracers fired by all stock AAA units and patrol boats. Number of tracers has been increased 5 times, instead of every fifth bullet being tracer round now EVERY SINGLE bullet fired by Triple-A is tracer. Also I changed the data for stock partol boats, that makes these vessels track and attack air targets too.
Second tweak is the increase of bullets fired in a burst by AAA crews, usually from 12 to 20 or 24. This seem to me does not make them more or less accurate.
As these changes may increase CPU usage I eliminated ALL tracersmoke trails of any kind for any calibre guns (...)

New Soviet MANPADS models
By Stary
this is set of new models for Crusader's "Soviet Manpads" pack for Strike Fighters 2 series
Created with the aid of freeware "soldier02" model by ? available at free3dmodels.com, rebuild and tweaked by me
Sa-7, Sa-16, Sa-18, Sa-24 models by me*
This pack updates the visuals of all units from Crusader's mod, namely:
SA-7 "Grail" - GRAU 9K32 Strela-2
SA-7b "Grail" - GRAU 9K32M Strela-2M
SA-14 "Gremlin" - GRAU 9K34 Strela-3
SA-16 "Gimlet" - GRAU 9K310 Igla-1
SA-18 "Grouse" - GRAU 9K38 Igla
Sa-24 "Grinch" - GRAU 9K338 Igla-S
I tried to give the models some variety in look, so some are standing and some are firing from keeling positions. Some have ugly box with additional missiles near them.
The models are "generic" enough to possibly serve for various armies and time periods.
Also slightly tweaked, more visible effect for launched missiles is included. Use at own risk ;)

Aerodynamically Limited MiG-17s v1.1
By Caesar
Aerodynamically Limited MiG-17s v1.1
=================
Description:
This is a mod which limits the maneuverability of the stock ThirdWire MiG-17, -17F and -17PF at high subsonic speeds, especially above .8M. It has long been published that the MiG-17's lack of hydraulically boosted controls prevented the pilot from turning much harder than 2-2.5g as the aircraft got beyond 400 knots (especially by 450). The stock TW MiG-17s, however, have in excess of 10g authority at the mid-to-high 400s of knots, and this is one of the reasons they are commonly called "UFOs" - they can out-turn almost any fighter anywhere in the envelope.
This mod adjusts both the lift coefficient and the aerodynamic pitch dampening coefficient to reduce the MiG-17's ability to pull high-g turns at airspeeds exceeding .8 Mach. This provides the player with the ability to utilize real-world speed tactics employed by F-4, F-8 and other aircrews against the MiG-17. Keep the fight fast, and you can now out-turn the FRESCO.
This mod does NOT adjust the lower-speed performance of the FRESCO. As such, if you try to get into the phonebooth and burn away your energy, expect the same results as before. If you choose to fly the MiG-17 with this FM modification, it adds a degree of challenge and realism in that just like the AI, you won't be able to load a 12g turn at 500knots anymore, and will have to pay attention to airspeed. The speedbreak is your friend! I personally had no problem dogfighting with the FM, but it did require better energy management in that it requires you to keep the aircraft neither too slow, nor too fast.
V1.1 (23 Nov 17) has also changed the engine response time for the MiG-17's VK-1F engine. It is reported in Red Eagles that the engine took approximately 15 seconds (p.112) to go from idle to full military power. Most engines from the 50s and 60s had slow response times (e.g., the TF-30 taking approximately 8 seconds to go from idle to military and another 4 to stage up to Zone 5), and this required a bit of thinking and tactics to work around. "Jose" Oberle (Lt Col, Ret) explained that the engine worked well enough if kept above 80 percent power, but pulling back to idle, then pushing back towards military power "took forever" (Ibid.), and that the easiest way to handle decelerating was to keep the engine at 80 percent and deploy the speed brakes. The AI isn't harshly impacted by this limitation, but a player using this data.ini will have to consider this limitation. If, as a player, you do not want to deal with the slower engine response, the original entry is simply commented out, and can be restored by editing the .ini.
=================
Whats in it:
There are three data.inis contained in this mod. One for the baseline MiG-17, one for the MiG-17F and one for the MiG-17PF. This mod adjusts the ThirdWire MiG-17s and will work with any version of StrikeFighters 2, including merged and single installs.
=================
Installation:
1. Unzip the contents of the "Aero_Limited_MiG-17sV11.7z" file into a folder
2. Open the folder. Copy the contents of the folder (MiG-17, -17F, and -17PF folders) into your SF2 mod folder's Objects\Aircraft folder, allowing all files to overwrite.
3. The Data.ini files should already be read only, but if not, set them to read only so the game does not re-write or over-write the data file with the game's original files upon booting up (this happens sometimes when a mod changes a core game file).
4. Go fly!

Some open-source examples of airspeed and engine limitations of the MiG-17:
From "Scream of Eagles," "Tooter" Teague (who flew one of the captured MiG-17's) put it that: "We found out very quickly that the MiG ['17] goes out of control at 450 knots...He [the '17] locks up at about 425 and he goes absolutely left wing down...his wing warps...so if he goes 500 knots he's out of control He's in a left wing roll an can't do anything about it. So just do 500 knots and it becomes only a question of eyes. Keeping sight and keeping fast." (p. 138).
From "Red Eagles": "We had to teach them that if they could - as a defender in an American airplane - get the MiG-17 into the 450-knot regime, and then start to turn, then the MiG pilot would have to overcome this huge aerodynamic load on the tail without any hydraulic assistance. He may have had the potential to pull 7Gs, but he could probably pull no more than 2Gs because he simply didn't have the physical strength to overcome the loads on the tail." (p.132)
From "Duke" Cunningham (in "Dogfights): [the MiGs are travelling fast. Cunningham knows the MiG, lacking hydraulic controls like the F-4, is hard to turn.] "So I looked at him and said 'nope, can't do it,' so I broke into him and he overshot right down below me."
[Engine] From "Red Eagles, New Edition": The VK-1F was slow to respond to movements of the throttle, and it took in the region of 15 seconds for it to go from idle thrust to "military" thrust power setting (the maximum non-afterburning thrust available). Oberle observed: "This slow engine response was a characteristic of the old engines. If you kept the power up above 80 percent you had pretty good engine response, but if you ever pulled it back to idle and then pushed the power up to accelerate, it would take forever for the engine to spool back up to the 80 percent rangewhere you finally started getting power." (p.112)

SPYDER Sam System
By angelp
Rafael Advanced Defense Systems (RADS) SPYDER-SR
The SPYDER (Surface-to-air PYthon and DERby) is an Israeli short and medium range mobile air defense system developed by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems with assistance from Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI)
The SPYDER is a low-level, quick-reaction surface-to-air missile system capable of engaging aircraft, helicopters, unmanned air vehicles, drones, and precision-guided munitions. It provides air defense for fixed assets and for point and area defense for mobile forces in combat areas.The SPYDER launcher is designed to fire Python-5 and Derby surface-to-air missiles which share full commonality with the air-to-air missiles
This model uses an Electro-Optical turret for target acquisition with a maximum range of 15 km for the Pyhton 5 missile and 40 for the DERBY.
Instalation:
-------------------------------------------------------------
Put the content of the objects/groundobject/SpyderSR_L folder in your mod folder.
The game must replace with this system older AAA systems, so be aware.

Crotale SAM system
By GKABS
CROTALE mod by GKABS
1) Historical background
The Development of the Crotale Surface-to-Air Missile system began in 1964.
The Crotale is a very short range SAM system (Sol-Air à Très Courte Portée or SATCP).
It was said that South Africa paid 85% (France: 15%) of the first step development
costs of this SAM System. The Crotale was named "Cactus" for South Africa.
Thomson-CSF for the radar and the electronics, and Matra (Engine division) for the
R440 missile were the two prime contractors.
South Africa received the first systems in 1971.
In 1971 France placed the first order for operational tests: 1 Acquisition Unit and
2 Firing Units.
The Armée de l'Air bought this SAM system in order to protect their airfields.
The Crotale in this first opérational version (Crotale 1000) was above all engaged
for the Egypt-Libya and Angola wars in the 1980s.
Further developments were launched for several customers among the 15 ones which
ordered this system.
2) Installation in your Strike Fighters 2 installation(s)
There are 2 options :
- The "Sand" version in order to put in any "Desert" type SF2 install,
- The "Green" version for any "European" type SF2 install.
So you'll find them into 2 separated packs ready to play :)
