Mods Folder Paks, In Various Parts
As the entire mods folder would have been FAR to huge to upload, the varous and sundry folders have been broken down into parts.
You'll need to d/l EACH and EVERY part, and then unzip them into a temp folder to reassemble the entire thing.
Once assembled, you'll need to create a stand-alone mods folder for the 'NATO Action Group' (aka NAG - or call it whatever you want).

This is the /Aircraft folder, Part 3,
It includes aircraft from FA thru T, as detailed in the accompaning screenshot

You'll then delete ALL the folders from the NAG mods folder, and use ONLY those supplied. (With the exception of the main /Objects folder - you still need someplace to put the G0,Decals,Pilots, Weapons and aircaft. BTW, the aircraft d/l is divided into 3 parts)

You can, OTH, simply install the GroundObjects, Aircraft, Pilots, Weapons, Guns, and Decals to a regualar install, but you do so at your own risk. There is a distinct possiblity of severe damage to said install.
Howver, use of the varous GroundObjects would probably NOT cause any difficulties. Many of them you may already have; 99.9% of the original releases were WRONG in how they were handled either for incorrect Nations applied and/or the complete and utter lack of proper Userlist.inis. This has been corrected.
As yet, there is no 'Campaign' built for this .. it's designed for running single missions, as outlined in the various threads in the General Discussion Forum. You'd be adivsed to read through those, to get a feel for what's going on

This is Part 2, which contains the following sub-folders for your Mods folder's main /Objects folder, as seen in the screenshot above:

SF2E: The Scandinavian Front
Operation Isbjörn
By JonathanRL & Paulopanz.
Special thanks to gillg and Wrench who both have been tremendious help!!!
Please note: OP Isbjörn 1.2 is stand-alone but can be used to upgrade OP Isbjörn 1.1 to 1.2.
Major changes include:
* Completly rewritten ground war
* Air Attack strategy now reflects Swedens military objectives during the Cold War
* New Aircraft (Tunnan versions mostly, but also Pauls J-33 Venom)
* A cleanup of the Swedish Air Force divisions.
* More variety in enemy aircraft, including MiG-19s and Tu-4 Bombers.
Synopsis:
In 1956, diplomatic talks about the Baltic Sea region betweenFinland, Sweden and the Soviet Union broke down. Angered and afraid of NATOs influence in Scandinavia, The Soviet Union demands that Finland and Sweden joins the Warsaw pact to ensure the borders of the Union.
Both countries refuse. On October 1th, the Soviet Union deploys forces to force the countries into the pact.
Sweden, Finland and Norway set condition Isbjörn, activating an alliance against Soviet Agression and rallies to defend Scandinavia...
Installation Instructions:
Simply unzip it all into your mod folder. I would advise you to use a clean installation so there is as little risk as possible
for errors. This mod does not overwrite any original data and can be used alongside any Central Europe themed mod Campaign - in theory.
If you own Strike Figthers 2 Israel, unzip the "Install_if_you_have_SFI_Exp1" file into the mod folder as well, and allow any overwrites.
Important Notes:
SF2 Europe is a requirement. Preferably, use a fully merged installation. The Terrain itself is not very combatible with the other games, hence the requirement.
While the DLC 008 Hawker Hunter is not required, its strongly recommended for this campaign.
If you have the A-21R from A-Team Site, This campaign has a squadron that flies it - if installed.
Kindly report any bugs or issues to me by PM or in proper thread.

Operation Isbjörn 1.1 Patch
You need Operation Isbjörn main package installed for this to work:
http://combatace.com/files/file/12318-sf2e-the-scandinavian-front-operation-isbjorn/
Kindly note main package version number as it may have been upgraded to include patches.
FEATURES:
New Squadron: F 1 Hässlö
Operating J 33 Venoms, they are preforming Night Fighter duties for the Swedish Air Force. They will hunt Soviet Aircraft in all mission types
under the cover of darkness.
Minor Changes:
- Minor Tweaks to Ground War. Helsinki should now not be the first city attacked.
- Naming tweaks
- A number of minor campaign changes.
- paulopanz J 34 Hawker Hunter added for people w/o DLC 008.
Note:
The Venom is not the NF version, hence it lacks Radar. This is not a big issue in SF2, as the MiGs you encounter glady
put on their afterburners in case you cannot see them properly.
Credits:
Thanks to: Pasko, Column5, Gramps, Wrench and paulopanz for the Venom.
Thanks Knug for the J33 Skin.

Important Notes:

Aside from that, no other downloads required. The package contains all necessary aircraft, weapons and objects.
While the DLC 008 Hawker Hunter is not required, its strongly recommended for this campaign. If you want J28B Vampire Squadrons, you need to own SF2: Israel Expansion Pack 1.
Kindly report any bugs or issues to me by PM or in proper thread.
