EAF No.51 Sqn Sukhoi Su-7BMK Ramadan War
By regula50
Campaign EAF No.51 Sqn Ramadan War(Sukhoi Su-7BMK)
For Wings over Israel.
This campaign with 36 missions for the EAF No.51 Sqn(205th Fighter-Bomber Brigade)cover the periode from Oct 6, 1973 to Oct 24, 1973.
Historical accurate with the main units and bases deployment by and after October 6, 1973. Revised ground forces and add tank Su-100, BTR-50PK infantry transport, FROG-7, Scud-B(three launched on Oct 22, 1973)and three type of Bofors AAA.
EAF No.51 Squadron and Sukhoi Su-7BMK
By the Ramadan War, No.51 Squadron was one of three units of the EAF equipped with Su-7BMK. The more experienced No.55 Squadron was equipped with the new and vastly improved Su-20.
The Su-7BMK was a simplified export version of Su-7BM, manufactured 1967-1971 with 441 built.
The three Su-7BMK squadrons(No.51, No.52 and No.53)formed the 205th Fighter-Bomber Brigade with bases at Bilbeis, Bilbeis Qutamiyah and el-Mansourah. Full complement of the Brigade was 48 Su-7BMK.
From the first days of the entry in service of the Su-7BMK, the EAF was dissapointed with the type.
The powerful Lyuka Al-7F1 turbojet, was a thirsty engine and occuped almost two thirds of the fuselage increasing vulnerability. Range was limited and drop tanks were mandatory. Despite Sukhoi brochures "as capable of self protection from enemy interceptors", combat operations over the Sinai proved the contrary. However, with a skilled pilot this two 30mm with 70 rounds each can give devastador results.
Other problems were the weapons and the limited number of tyres and drop tanks(six for each aircraft)supplied by the Soviets. Rockets S-3K proved incapable of penetrating even the relatively thin top-side armour of the Israeli tanks.
Despite a good number of the requests of the EAF for improvements, Sukhoi only acceded in instaling the requested mirrors.
The EAF was in his own and with the colaboration of Helwan factory, the type was continued improved from 1967.
To increase the range, Helwan took the 500 liters drop tanks, cut him, inserted a strech section between and increase the capacity to 1050 liters.
Because the Soviets refused to deliver enough replacement weapons, Helwan produced the bomb Kaakaa-100-105(based on the Soviet FAB-100-105), the Kaakaa-250(FAB-250M-54)and later the Nasr-250(FAB-250M-62).
With Six Days War recovered and no exploded French bombs, Helwan developed one anti-rwy penetration bomb of 250 kg. The factory produced also the fuel-air explosive(FAE)of 200 kg, as well retarding fins for other GP weapons.
By 1973, the Su-7BMK was vastly improved but pilots were only full satisfied with the arrivals of the Su-20s in the same year.
EAF No.51 Squadron began operations in the Ramadan War by 13.48 hours on Oct 6, 1973. CO LtCol Hazem al-Gharby led 12 Su-7BMK and attacked Refidim AB and surrounding installations.
Approaching at a very high speed and minimal altitude, the attack took the Israelis by surprise and the Su-7BMK holed the rwy in 10 places and destroyed the control tower.
The third flight failed to find the HAWK site a Refidim and attacked as alternative the CP at Umm Qashiba.
No.51 Sqn suffered no losses in his first mission of the war and Refidim, repaired was back in operations two days later.
On Oct 11, 1973 four Su-7BMK of the No.51 Sqn destroyed the Israeli HAWK site near Baluza, opening the way for 12 MiG-17s in strike against tanks and vehicles, forward Israeli HQ and observation post at Um Hashiba.
EAF´s Su-7BMK were used intensively by the Ramadan War suffering heavy losses with 20 jets downed(17 by IDF/AF interceptors, 2 by AAA and one by accident).
In comparation SyAAF loss 14, the IrAF 15 and the QJJ one.
Despite this limitation, some 50 Su-7BMK were still in service at the end of 1986.

EAF No.26 Sqn MiG-21F-13 Ramadan War
By regula50
Campaign EAF No.26 Sqn Ramadan War(MiG-21F-13)
For Wings over Israel.
This campaign with 34 missions for the EAF No.26 Sqn cover the periode from Oct 7, 1973 to Oct 24, 1973.
Historical accurate with the main units and bases deployment by and after October 7, 1973. Revised ground forces and add tank Su-100, BTR-50PK infantry transport, FROG-7, Scud-B(three launched on Oct 22, 1973)and three type of Bofors AAA.
EAF No.26 "Black Ravens" Squadron
No.26 Squadron was established in the autumn 1967.
The Squadron was the first, following the Israelian example, to set aerial ambushes with two MiGs acting as baith and two or four others as shooters.
First sucess coming in Oct 23, 1968 in the area Ismailiya-Suez Canal with two Mirages downed, one finded in May 1975 by the Egyptian Navy with the death pilot still in the cockpit.
As usual, IDF/AF denied this losses.
Based at Inchas AB during the War of Attrition, No.26 Squadron was the unit with the highest number of combat engagements in 1969-1970 and earned the reputation as the "best dogfighters" in the entire air arm.
Pilots of the squadron introduce the practice of applying kill markings on their MiGs, and by 1973, at least two of the MiGs carried the unit insignia, a black raven with a white "26".
The "Top Gun" of the unit was Reda el-Iraqi with three kills in the War of Attrition(all Mirages). The No.26 Squadron downed also IDF/AF ace Capt Giora Romm(5 victories)and became POW.
By the Ramadan War, despite the availability of new variants like MiG-21MF or MiG-1PFM, the No.26 Squadron remained with the old MiG-21F-13. The aircraft was lighter and thus more manoeuvrable in comparison with recent variants. The single 30mm cannon with 60 rounds packed a more powerful punch than the 23mm GSh-23 installed in the MiG-21MF. Also, the F-13 was a dedicated interceptor and not a dual role like the MiG-21MF.
No.25 Squadron follow the example of No.26 Squadron and give his MiG-21PFS to come back with the MiG-21F-13. Both Squadrons, forming the Air Brigade 102, had 30 MiG-21F-13 by the Ramadan War.
The UARAF/EAF had taked in charge 90 MiG-21F-13(48 of the first batch delivered from Nov 1961 to 1963, 12 ex QJJ in Jun 1967 and 30 purchased with Aero-Vodochody in Czechoslovakia delivered in 1969). Last F-13s arriving by Dec 4, 1969. All this 30 jets were assigned to the Air Brigade 102.
The SyAAF received during the Ramadan War, 11 MiG-21F-13 from Czechoslovaquia and 12 from Poland. The DDR deliver in the same periode 12 MiG-21M.
Campaign need the following extra aircrafts:
MiG-17F "Fresco-C EAF mod(by Paulopanz)

Iran-Iraq War Terrain/Campaign
By Spudknocker
Included in this package is a brand new Iran-Iraq/Western Asia Terrain with 4 campaigns.
Three of the campaigns compose the three periods of the Iran Iraq War-
1st- the initial invasion which spans from 1980 through 81- Lots of CAS and Intercept as well as strike missions.
2nd The War of the Cities and Tanker War from 1982-1987-Many interdiction anti-shipping and strike missions similar to Rolling Thunder
3rd The Battle For Al-Basrah all of 1988- Lots of CAS, anti-ship and strike missions
The 4th campaign is a semi-fictionalized Project Dark Gene/Ibex campaign from 1970-77 with USAF and IIAF units conducting recon missions against Soviet Installations and protecting Iranian borders from Iraqi Incursions. Because the terrain doesn't extend to the Soviet Border the campaign was turned 90 degrees with northern Iraq-Mosul/Tikrit acting as our stand in Soviet area.
Includes all the required aircraft and skins including Ravenclaw's Beautiful new IIAF/IRIAF F-4's and Iranian weapons and new F-4D and RF-4E skins to match from Yakarov79!
A separate install is not required and will work best if incorporated into a big everything thrown in Mod Folder.
This mod package is meant to be an addition to Operation Darius or Operation Desert Storm and NATO Fighters 5 from Eburger68. Ground Objects from Mr Burgers packages are required for example Iranian Destroyers.
Here is a link to Op Darius- http://combatace.com/topic/74627-operation-darius-final-part-1-of-4/
And Desert Storm- http://combatace.com/topic/84643-operation-desert-storm-for-sf2-redux-part-1-of-3/
Nato fighters 5- http://combatace.com/files/file/13332-nato-fighters-5-part-1-of-8/
The Aircraft included in this mod are readily available here at CA and the thank you/credits list is too large to name everyone! See the credits list for NATO Fighters 5 that should cover everyone!
A HUGE thanks to Blaze for Letting me tinker with his new Western Asia Terrain to make it Perfect for an Iran-Iraq War Campaign!
This Mod is a combination of many people's work here at CA thank you everyone who helps contribute to the Community!
I am by no means an expert but I have had a blast putting this together over the last few months if someone can add more realism to the campaigns PM me and let know! I hope everyone enjoys this!

F-4E Phantom update for SF2V Air & Ground War Expansion Pack
By dtmdragon
F-4E Phantom update for SF2V Air & Ground War Expansion Pack 2.0
2.0 Updates/ corrections
- Updated/ corrected F-4E 'Rivet Haste' skins and serial numbers.
- Early F-4E skin ejection warning triangles replaced with larger early versions.
This mod upgrades the stock Third Wire F-4E Phantoms with the F-4E and F-4E Hard-Wing & MIDAS4 from ravenclaw_007 and Co’s F-4E USAF pack as well as my F-4E_72 ‘Rivet Haste’ add-on for the F-4E USAF pack.
In order to make the two compatible I have changed the F-4E USAF pack Phantoms to mimic the folder and skin structure of the SF2V Air & Ground War Expansion Pack F-4E Phantoms. This means the F-4E Hard-Wing & MIDAS4 is actually in the F-4E_72 folder. This is historically accurate as the TW F-4E_72 is incorrect for the Vietnam conflict as the only slatted F-4E Phantoms in theater where the 555TFS flight of Rivet Haste Phantoms.
Only to be used with the SF2V Air & Ground War Expansion Pack.
Included:
- F-4E
- F-4E Hard-Wing & MIDAS4
- F-4E_72 ‘Rivet Haste’
