Mirage Milan S

By denissoliveira

Mirage Milan S

The latest variant of the basic Mirage III/5 family is the Milan (this name does not refer to the Italian city, but to a bird known in English as the "kite"). It is similar to the Mirage IIIE, but is equipped with retractable fore-planes - these being nicknamed "moustaches". This innovation was developed jointly by Dassault and the Federal Aircraft Factory, of Switzerland, and leads to radically improved take-off and low-speed handling characteristics. Each foreplane has a span of 0.8m and features fixed leading-edge slats and slotted trailing-edge flaps. The whole installation is extremely light and only takes up a small amount of space forward of the cockpit.

Foreplanes were first tested in a fixed installation on a Mirage III during 1968; then followed a retractable installation on a Mirage IIIR, this aircraft being shown at the Paris Air Show in June 1969. Finally, a definitive prototype, known as the Milan S-01, was converted from a Mirage IIIR and first flown on May 29, 1970. The Milan S is powered by a 7,200kg SNECMA 09K-50 and has a greater external load capacity than the Mirage IIIE. It also has improved avionics, including the navigation/attack system developed for the Anglo-French BAC/Breguet Jaguar.

No orders for the Milan had been announced at the time of writing (May 1971) but Dassault has said that deliveries could be started in 1972. Switzerland is being strongly wooed with the type and it is reported that South Africa has been discussing a possible order with the manufacturer.

SF2:I Vautour IIN Upgrade Pack

By Wrench

SF2:I Vautour IIN Upgrade Pack 11/27/2017
= For SF2:I (or Any & All, Full-5 Merged Prefered) =
Extensive modifications and upgrades to Veltro2k's S.O.4050 Vautour IIN Night/All Weather fighter-bomber as used by the IDF/AF. As seen on the CombatAce message boards, a major revamp adds 2 skins for ealy service in the IDF/AF.
This mod is designed to replace all other versions, in toto, of the Vautour IIN. This package contains the full, entire aircraft.
Many modification have been performed, and all are listed in the "Notes" section of this readme. Loadouts have been adjusted, as have several other important statements in the data ini. All weapons used are stock 3W items, meaning they still use the UK bombs. End Users (tm) that wish to swap out to the various French bombs available in weapons packs may do. Be advised, I did =NOT= test with those, so their attachment positions -may- not match.
All new, historical "plane-in-squadron/serial numbers" for IDF usage. All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. However, due to the low number of aircraft (6-7) the randomization (for some reason) seems not to be working.
Even though there isn't another Vautour IIN, I've added a statement to the "displayed name", so it now reads:
Vautour IIN (V2K)
This is just one of my usual "things", when more than one of the type exists.
As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please READ them ... after unzipping but before installling!
Good Hunting!

Fiat G.91R pack v1.0

By FANATIC MODDER

This is a Fiat G.91R pack, taking the old SFP1 mods and make them SF2 compatible.
The pack includes all three G.91R versions 1,3 & 4, with all the neccessary weapons, pilots, guns & sounds. Five missions are also included. You need to install the NATO fighters campaign for these missions and the excellent Ravenclaw_007 USAF & Luftwaffe Phantoms.
I tried to make as complete as possible, taking parts from the excellent G.91Y of ErikGen, such as the cockpit, sounds and the ejection seat.
I worked the skins (converted into jpg), the loadouts and of course the data.ini trying to do it as realistic as I could.

The real credits should go to
First and above all
- ErikGen
for make them possible.
Also
- Andriam "Kreelin" who made the original Flight Model of the G.91Rs for SPF1.
- Maurizio "NGHENGO" for the loading and hangar screens
- Spillone104 for the jet sound, photos and suggestions during beta testing of the initial G.91Y release
- Steve S for the invaluable infos about the cockpit of the initial G.91Y release
- Steve S, Soulfreak & Muesli for the amazing skins
- Ravenclaw_007 for the amazing weapons that made sense to rework the G.91R
- Viper63 for the excellent pilots
- bobrock, Soulfreak, Dave, Canadair, 76.IAP-Blackbird, Veltro2k and Nghengo as beta testers of the initial G.91Y release

Known issues
- The Attachment Position of the pylons are slighly wrong and should have been corrected. Hopefully in a later release.
- The cockpit of the G.91Y looks a bit odd, since the "Yankee" was twin-engined and I hope that someone would correct this.
- A late period ('80s) skin is missing for the Portoguese G.91R/4. I hope that someone would make a skin for it.

I had in mind to rework the G.91R for years, and finally now I managed to do it. Better late than ever.
I think most people know my love for small planes.
Remember this is a

SF2 TA-4F Skyhawk "Fast FACs"

By Wrench

SF2 TA-4F Skyhawk "Fast FACS" by 331Killerbee & Co.
This is the full package (all necessary parts included), originally created by 331Killerbee in 2008. It has been fully updated to SF2 standards, with various small changes to the aircraft and the data ini.
As with my other SF2 "fixes" for the TA-4 series, some components have been 'removed' to stop the shadow tractor beams. The FM is at the latest SF2 standard (latest patch level) Other changes include (but not limited too):
resetting all hit boxes
randomization of decals
"fake insignia" decal to activate Nation displayed name.
All weapons used are stock 3W.
Killerbee's original readme (well, actually this document!) is included for historical purposes, and it's historical background on the Fast FACs.
Have fun!!

Malaysian Skyhawks - A-4PTM/TA-4PTM

By Nyghtfall

Malaysian Scooters - A-4PTM/TA-4PTM for SF2 - v1.0
==================================================
*** any SF2 that has the A-4F for the cockpit and DLC019 required for the A-4L model ***
The Tentera Udara Diraja Malaysia (TUDM, or Royal Malaysian Air Force) ordered 88 surplus Skyhawks (25 A-4Cs and 63 A-4Ls) in 1980. The TUDM wanted these planes refurbished into 54 single-seaters and 14 two-seaters. However, the US government placed a temporary hold on the sale, and escalating costs due to inflation resulted in a cut in the order to only 40 aircraft.
Grumman Aerospace at St. Augustine, Florida was given the contract to perform the rework on the TUDM Skyhawks. The rework included a complete rewiring, plus two extra underwing hardpoints similar to A-4E and later Skyhawks. A refurbished J65-W-20 engine was fitted. Updated electronics were also fitted, including the AN/ARN-118 TACAN, a SAAB RGS-2A lead computing weapons sight, a Lear Siegler altitude heading reference system, and an AN/ARC-164 UHF transceiver. The A-4Cs were fitted with the dorsal avionics hump. aswell as wing spoilers. A drag chute was installed below the tailpipe. A new canopy was fitted, which was slightly bulged at the sides. Some of the aircraft received preparations for the Hughes AN/ASB-19 Angles Rate Bombing System, aswell as provisions for AGM-65 Maverick missiles, but both were actually never used with these planes. Provisions for the use of AIM-9 Sidewinders were incorporated on the outer wing pylons. In the end, Grumman modified 34 aircraft. They were assigned the designation A-4PTM (where PTM stood for Peculiar to Malaysia, other sources say Persekutan Tanah Melayu - Federation of Malay States). The A-4PTM flew for the first time on April 12, 1984 and modified planes were assigned the TUDM serials of M32-07 to M32-40.
Six A-4C/A-4L airframes were converted into two-place Skyhawks. This was done by inserting a 28-inch plug into the fuselage. Canopy and tandem seating arrangements were generally similar to those of the Douglas-built TA-4s. These planes were designated TA-4PTM. The TA-4PTM also featured five underwing pylons. The first TA-4PTM took off on its maiden flight on August 28, 1984. The six TA-4PTMs were given the TUDM serials of M32-01 to M32-06. Since they were based on the earlier A-4C/L, the 6 planes were among the few two-seaters, that used the J65 engine (together with early TA-4S from Singapore).
Deliveries began in 1985 and were completed by February 1986. A-4PTMs served with No 6 and 9 Squadrons, both based at Kuantan AB, while TA-4PTMs served only with No 6 Squadron. Their service with the TUDM was quite brief. In 1989, it was announced that they were going to be withdrawn from service and replaced by British Aerospace Hawk Mk.208s in late 1994. Six Skyhawks were retained as tanker aircraft, using a centerline Douglas D-704 external buddy tank.
By September 1999, the TUDM Skyhawks were no longer operational, and were derelict at the Royal Malaysian Air Force Base at Kuantan.
Little information are available about those planes, so I tried to come as close as possible to the real ones. Cockpit is a heavily modded A-4F-cockpit modded around the fact, that the radarscreen was deleted and many intruments were rearranged to fill the space. According to Lt. Khoo those planes didn't have any countermeasures (no ECM, no Chaff/Flare-Dispensers) and probably no RWR. To add some survivability I deceided to leave RWR in the mod. ECM and Dispenser is commented out in the data.ini, so if you want to add those, just remove the //-bits.
If you now ask, why the hell do we need a mod of this plane, if it barely can survive in the timeframe it was used? We do not, but I made it, because I could :P I like this plane, because it always was one of the lesser known variants of this well-known plane and for me it is one of the best-looking Skyhawks out there. So, I hope you have some fun with the Jungle Scooter. :)

CP-122 Neptune

By 1977Frenchie

Royal Canadian Air Force Neptune Mod for SFP2 v1.0 (CP-122)
*** This is a mod of the original P-2H (P2V-7) released by Tracker and the Argentine Modders Group ***
This Mod represent the CP-122 Neptune of the RCAF :
You fill find the complete aircraft in this package.
404,405 and 407 Squadrons
Early (AB + 3)
Early (RCAF + 3)
Late (RCAF + 3)
All decals are made by me. I redraw the panel lines and rivets.
Serials are real one's but not squadron specific.
Background :
The Canadian version of the Lockheed Neptune (P2V7) served as an anti-submarine, anti-shipping and maritime reconnaissance aircraft in the RCAF Maritime Air Command from 1955, replacing the Avro Lancaster maritime aircraft. The Canadian P2V7 was fitted with piston engines initially, although, in 1959, the Neptunes had two underwing Westinghouse J34 jet engine pods retrofitted, similar to those fitted to US Navy variants. Armament included two torpedoes, mines, depth charges, bombs carried internally plus unguided rockets mounted externally underwing. A total of 25 Neptunes served with nos. 404, 405 and 407 squadrons until 1960. Upon unification of the Canadian Forces in 1968, the Neptune was retired and retroactively re-designated the CP122, The RCAF Neptune was replaced by the Canadair CP-107 Argus in the same year.

Special Hercules Over Vietnam

This is extra pack of special versions of C-130 Hercules used by USAF during Vietnam War period.
Pack contains all required models and it is based on Dels great new C-130 Pack + update available here on Combat Ace.
http://combatace.com/files/file/16427-c-130-hercules-superpack/
update here:
http://combatace.com/files/file/16480-c-130-hercules-superpack-add-on-1/
All skins are based on templates by Dels and are done in 2048x2048 format.
Credits:
Original model + pit model: Dels
C-130 fake pilot mods, AQM-drones, Cargo 1800gal fule tank and DC-130 pylons: yakarov
Pack contains:
C-130E(I) Combat Talon I.
In 1965-1966 Big Safari program started programs Skyhook / Stray Goose programs resulting in series of modifications to C-130E airframes as Fulton Recovery System and AN/APQ-115 TF/TA Radar.
On 8 September 1966, Stray Goose deployed 4 aircrafts and personnel to Southeast Asia as Combat Spear unit under PACAF as Detachment 1 314th Troop Carrier Wing. Aircrafts operated from Nha Trang AB in Vietnam. and became first Combat talon aircrafts used in combat.
C-130E(i) Combat Talon I
HC-130P Combat Shadow.
In mid-1966 flight testing began of rescue helicopters equipped with aerial refueling receivers, and 11 HC-130H - the controller aircraft were modified as tankers and redesignated the HC-130P. SAR, Command and Control/vertical lift (helicopter) aerial refueling aircraft, entering service in Southeast Asia in November 1966.
Amid few original ARRS units this set covers painting and decals of 39th ARRS.
DC-130A & DC-130E.
Operations over China and Vietnam could not be succesfulf if not drones operated by 350th SRS . Three C-130As (56-0527, 56-0514 and 57-0461) and three C-130Es (61-2368, 61-2369 and 61-2371) were converted in the 1965-6 timeframe. It is possible that the DC-130As were intended for tactical drone operations and the more powerful and longer ranged DC-130Es were intended for strategic operations with 'big winged' Model 147s over China. The DC-130As generally migrated to test activities after the war and the DC-130Es, after serving with the 432nd TDG, rejoined the transport fleet as C-130Es.
During service in Vietnam all DC-130A were later retrofitted with four bladed Hamilton Standard props.
Ive made all decals for all versions covering years of use in USAF service based on available reference materials.
So all serial numbers are historicaly correct.
National and squadron markings as always in my case are painted on skins.

I did not include any new bump or specular maps. Great stuff for replacment can be found in Kulbit80 pack:
http://combatace.com/files/file/16489-vmgr-152-hi-viz-skin-for-kc-130f/
As weapons AQM-34 - is EOGR missile - can be anything it will not work as drone anyway).
Pylons are set as TLR - to acomodate EOGR -but somehow there is option to load one drone - do not use it. as it will apear somewhere in middle of aircraft.
AQM-34 Drones covers three versions:
G- ECM version equipped with ALE-2 chaff dispening pods.
L-low-altitude photo recce
Q- big wing ELINT version
In HC version refueling drogue is deployed at speed near 120kts. (to simulate refueling helicopters too.)
Note:
In this pack (unlike original Dels C-130) JATO is activated by vector thrust controll (similiar as in latest Tu-22 pack)

report bugs.

Fully loaded for combat the AU-1 weighed 20% more than a fully loaded F4U-4,
and was capable of carrying 8,200 lb of bombs.
The AU-1 had a maximum speed of 238 miles per hour at 9,500 ft,
when loaded with 4,600 lb of bombs and a 150-gallon drop-tank.
When loaded with eight rockets and two 150-gallon drop-tanks,
maximum speed was 298 mph at 19,700 ft. When not carrying external loads,
maximum speed was 389 mph at 14,000 ft. First produced in 1952 and used in Korea, and retired in 1957.

Gloster Javelin FAW. 8-9-9R pack

The Gloster Javelin was a twin-engined all-weather interceptor aircraft that served with Britain's Royal Air Force in the late 1950s and most of the 1960s. It was a T-tailed delta-wing aircraft designed for night and all-weather operations and was the last aircraft design to bear the Gloster name. Introduced in 1956 after a lengthy development period, the aircraft received several upgrades during production to its engines, radar and weapons, including support for the De Havilland Firestreak air-to-air missile.
The Javelin was succeeded in the interceptor role by the English Electric Lightning, a supersonic aircraft capable of flying more than double the Javelin's top speed, which was introduced into the RAF only a few years later. The Javelin served for much of its life alongside the Lightning; the last Javelins were withdrawn from operational service in 1968 following the induction of successively more-capable versions of the Lightning.

FAW 8 Upgraded Sa.7R engines with reheat, raising thrust to 12,300 lbf (54.7 kN) thrust above 20,000 ft (6,100 m); at lower altitudes, the limitation of the fuel pump caused a loss of cold thrust. New "drooped" wing leading edge and auto-stabilizer for better handling. Short nose.

FAW 9 A total of 118 FAW 7s refitted with the revised wing and engines of the Mk 8. Wet pylons. Long nose.

FAW 9R (range) fuel probe added.

Special test modified plane.

RF-86A Korean War Project Ashtray

By Geary

Korean War RF-86A for SF2 and SF1
RF-86A Sabre of the Korean War Poject Ashtray.

There is one zipped file for SF2 and one for SF1 in this download package.

Information on this project is and it's predecessor, Project Honeybucket, is schetchy. As gun removal seems to have been personal choice and changed throughout these projects I chose to leave the top four guns inplace as described at one of the few sites with information. Remove any or all guns as you desire.

Credit and Thanks to:
Zur - for the F-86 model and drop tanks.
yakarov79 - for the fake pilot 3D cameras, photos and project info.
Diego - for Korean War era pilot.
Wrench - for the decals, original skin I adapted/repainted and cockpit mod for the F-86A.
ravenclaw007 - for his F-86 template I borrowed text and other details from.
regula50 - for the correct plane numbers and project info.
FastCargo - for the Fake Pilot.
Geary - for new panel lines, rivets, paint, ini modifications, etc...

The cameras on the SF2 model are 3D .lods using .jpg format texture.
As the .lod's and .jpg's aren't recognized by SF1, those cameras are painted on.

If I forget or miss anyone who deserves credit for anything I release, I apologize. I have no intent to abuse or misuse anyone's work or property or claim it as my own. Please contact me to correct any error.

INSTALLATION: Unzip to a folder/place of your choice. Copy, Move, Drag-n-Drop or do whatever you wish to get the folders into their corresponding folders in your Korean War install. If you don't already have the weapon information in your weapondata.ini file, add it. Run the SF1 Weapons Editor. Fly.

I'm releasing this under the Combat Ace Fair Use Agreement. Use it anyway you wish for personal use but please give credit to those due it.

If you find any problems with it, please PM me. If you improve it, please PM me a copy.

All skins are based on templates by ludo.m54 => http://combatace.com...ge-5-templates/

Ive edited ini files mostly in weapon stations to seperate bomb stations from IRM, FT etc. Also removed some lines of unrealistic loadouts (like inboard IRM,lgb on belly station etc.)

Two seater mod is based on denisoliveira models. Ive renamed all required folder /fake pilots/ mods to avoid causing problems with older versions.

You need fake pilot mod to run some of the parts from this pack.

To run this mod you need also access to TW lod files from SF2:I (lods and cockpits for Kfir)
Generaly full merged instal of SF2 family is recomended.

All canopies can be open by Shift+1 animation key.

All skins are done by me in 2048x2048 format based on templates by ludo.m54

Kfir C2 and C7 can carry MER and TER bomb racks. To have realistic loadouts I've made seperate weapon racks for Kfir based on regular racks (diameter and weight limits)

Credits:

Ive made all decals for all versions covering years of use in IAF based on available reference materials.
All C7 Kfirs were named. Even if i know all names I didn't do all decals..(update may follow soon)
