    1. Yak-25M & K "Flashlight" for SF-2

      Yak-25M & K (true SF-2 standard, last patch ready)
       
      Here I (skins, decals) and Spillone104 (data edits, sound, weapons) upgraded old but gold Pasko's Yak-25 for SF-2 and made it more historically correct.
       
      References from Y.Gordon Aerofax fantastic book Yak-25/28.
       
      So we have now:
       
      Yak-25M only guns radar interceptor (6 skins) [historical standard]
       
      Yak-25K no guns* missile interceptor (2 skins) very small serie,
      quite experimental plane.
       
      (*) They were removed but not their shapes. BTW You have an optional data.ini, just for fun with guns, too.
       
      new 3 digit old numbers, 2 digit numbers (red, blue and yellow series taken from EriKgen Tu-128 and edited)
       
      To install: all in mod folder, as usual.
       
      Original Readme included.
       
      Take care.

      NB: In screenshot You can see the weathered skin, with radar radome free from nose paint.

    2. SF2 F-4G(B) USN Pack

      SF2 F-4G(B) USN Pack              8/28/2019
      -For SF2, Any and All (Full Merged Reccomended)
      This is a NEW aircraft, the F-4G(B) for the US Navy. There were F-4Bs modified with a automatic carrier landing system during their Oct 1965-June 1966 deployment in South East Asia aboard USS Kitty Hawk. They were painted in an experimental green camoflauge, as were many other aircraft of CVW-11 in this time frame.
      Once upon a time, I know we had this aircraft for 1stGen SF, but have been unable to locate it. So, I rebuilt it, and now present it you all to enjoy. This is a complete aircraft, based off the F-4B_65, so make use you have this bird in your inventory. This aircraft uses all stock 3w items.
      The skin is in jpg format, in 2048x, from Sundowner's templates. 12 100% historically accurate Bunum decals are included. Decal randomization is TRUE. This aircraft is given a full year's operational time frame, "1965-1966" in the data ini, even if not historically correct (read: easier). New, aircraft specific hangar and loading screens are provided.
      Is should be noted, this mod was started in 2011, and got lost. I do NOT remember who created the original skin I worked from, or the decals (which have been refreshed to remove ghosting around the edges), So I cannot take full credit for this mod (see "Notes" for more speculations).
      When in-game, on the aircraft selection drop down, you'll see:
      F-4G(B) Phantom II (USN)
      This will differentiate it from the USAF F-4G Wild Weasel, and make sure you know it's a Navy bird.
      As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. 

      Happy Landings!

    3. F-4J_74

      This is a simple mod adding DECM pods to the stock F-4J. Most of the rest of the aircraft is stock although i did add SPillone104s exhaust mods as are present on most of my Phantoms. I have more in progress as part of a larger pack but thought that you all might enjoy having this out there in the meantime. HUGE thanks to mppd for sending me his work on the DECM, without which this would not be possible!

    4. KC-97G Stratofreighter

      KC-97G Stratofreighter
       
      The KC-97 Stratofreighter was an aerial refueling tanker variant of the C-97 Stratofreighter (which was itself based on the Boeing B-29 Superfortress), greatly modified with all the necessary tanks, plumbing, and "flying boom." The cavernous upper deck was capable of accommodating oversize cargo accessed through a very large right-side door. In addition, transferrable jet fuel was contained in tanks on the lower deck (G-L models). Both decks were heated and pressurized for high altitude operations.
       
       
       

      Notes:
      serial numbers, while generic in nature, ARE for the model depicted (KC-97G). Decal randomization is true. All markings are decals.
      Damage texture is in DDS.
      End Service Year is 'best guess' (and longer than historical), but will cover until/if KC-97L is built and released.
      Crew entry door is operated by the Standard Animation Keystroke , Shift/0 (zero). The standard bomb bay keystorke, Cntl/0 (oh) operates the refueling boom.

    9. SF2 F-89 Scorpion Remod Pack (Ver.3)

      SF2 Northrup F-89 Scorpion Remod Pack (V.3)                         5/25/2019
      *For SF2, Any & All (Full 5 Merged Prefered)*
      This is a repackaging, and MAJOR update of the F-89 Scorpion series of 1950s USAF All-Weather Interceptors. There have been many changes to the various inis, skins/decals, weapons, and whatnots. This is to be considered to be "Version 3", and hopefully the final time the F-89 gets a revamp (unless new models magically appear). This package builds on and improves from the v2 pack dated 3/3/2016. It also replaces that mod completely.
      This package contains ALL the various marks of the Scorpion, including those later variants built from/modded of Monty's original C & D model LODs. There are several new skins, marked with the star (*) You have herein:
      F-89C:
      57th FIS, (Keflavik, Iceland)
      74th FIS, 23rd FIW (Thule AFB, Greenland)
      F-89D:
      75th FIS (Presque Isle AFB, Maine 1955)
      84th FIS (Hamilton AFB 1955-59)
      64th FIS (Alaska Air Command)
      321st FIS, (Paine AFB, WA 1954)*
      F-89H:
      321st FIS, (Paine AFB, WA 1956)*
      75th FIS (Presque Isle AFB, Maine 1957)
      F-89J (Early):
      321st FIS, (Paine AFB, WA 1958)*
      449th FIS (Ladd AFB, Alaska)
      F-89J (Late)
      59th FIS, Goose Bay Labrador (1958-60)*
      178th FIS "Happy Hooligans" ND ANG (1958-66)
      124th FIS, Iowa ANG (1962-69)*
      Several versions also have a "Generic USAF Silver" skin, complete with decals. You may notice several squadrons used the Scorpion in several of it's various incarnations. This is historically correct.
      Due to mesh/node mapping reasons, some marking remain painted on. A large number however, are decals. Serial numbers are 100% correct for the models depicted, but should be considered 'generic' as they don't represent actual aircraft with a given unit. Decal randomization is TRUE for all skins. Squadron's listed in the stock game's SquadronList.ini have their names activated via my 'fake' SqTail decal. Those will display their proper names on the Loadout Screen's Squadron Selection Window. When possible, the SF2 'date switch' has been used to turn on Air National Guard units as they became equipped with F-89s.
      On such aircraft that have operating canopies (those that use the F-89D lod), the canopy works via the Standard Manual Animation Keystroke (tm), shift/0.
      Included also are "Scorpion" specifc weapons (using the "StationSpecifieCode=" statements. Nuke explosion effects are included for the AIR-2 Genie rocket.
      As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. See "Notes" section for full change log and other  important statements. The various other readmes, from all previous versions remain wherever they were originally residing.

      Good Hunting!

    11. Kuwaiti Skyhawks - A-4KU/TA-4KU for SF2

      Kuwait Scooters - A-4KU/TA-4KU for SF2 - v1.0
      ==================================================
      *** any SF2I that has the KfirC1_77 for the cockpit and DLC005 required for the A-4K model ***
      This mods represents the A-4KU and TA-4KU Skyhawks used by Kuwait between 1977 and 1992.
      In the 1970s Kuwait purchased 36 Skyhawks (30 single-seater + 6 two-seater). These planes were based upon A-4M, that were delivered to the USMC at that time. So they got the same engine, the larger canopy, the brakechute and the squared off fintip. Equipment needed to deliver nuclear weapons, aswell as Shrike- and Walleye were deleted. The TA-4KU were unique in having the same engine as the single-seater, aswell as the avionics hump. Apart from some aerials their appearance is similar to that of the OA-4M.
      When Iraq invaded Kuwait in 1990, many of the pilots flew with their planes to Saudi Arabia. They were included in the Royal Saudi Air Force and flew 1361 sorties with the loss of only 1 plane.
      With the end of the Gulf War they were placed in storage and replaced by F/A-18 Hornets. After failed attempts to sell the surviving 23 planes to Bosnia and the Phillipines, they were finally sold to Brazil in 1997 to serve aboard the Aircraft Carrier Minas Gerais as AF-1 and AF-1A.
      Infos
      =====
      - cockpit used is the modified KfirC1_77 cockpit, that is already used for my A-4M-mod. I only made small modifications to fit it the A-4KU.
      - Pilotmodel is a stand-in, until someone comes up with a Kuwaiti Pilot :)
      - Fakepilot-stuff like hump and the antennas are made with MUEs new Blender-exporter - as I already said and always will: Thank you, great job, mue!
      - Skin resolution is 4096x4096
      - Skins are set up for "No9SQN" as I only found the general info, that planes were used by "No. 9 and No. 25 squadrons" and both squadrons didn't
          use any special markings it seems.

      Installation
      ============
      1. unzip to a temporary folder
      2. open "Put_Content_In_Your_MOD_Folder" and do as you were told, if asked to overwrite, say 'yes' :P
      3. enjoy!
      If the Squadron is missing in the loadout screen, you should add the following lines in the squadronlist.ini ("<mod>\pilotdata"-folder) with XXX changed to the next free numbers:
      [SquadronXXX]
      Name=Kuwait_No9SQN
      DisplayName=No. 9 Squadron

    12. Yak-25 Flashlight A [REVAMP]

      Yak-25 Flashlight A
       
      First production version equipped with the RP-1D "Izumrud" radar (Wikipedia).
       
      I´ve started this template some months ago, then Stary teased me with a pit he was making, which eventually led me to complete the template.
       
      The model as is, is the one of Pasko´s Old Yaks, it has some imperfections you will have to live with as i was unable to fix.
       
      2 High res skins have been made on my part along with the numbers, but the real Star here was Stary, giving a whole new feel to the plane with the cockpit he made.
       
      Also, must credit my good friend Daniel "Cocas" Liebaert, who let me use a MiG-17 seat we have for another soon to release project.
       
      The rest, of the people who worked in this project, i will need to send me a PM so i can include them here.
       
      Hope you like it and let´s beef our Red Army!!!

    13. Hawker Siddeley HS 748

      Hawker Siddeley HS 748
       
      The Hawker Siddeley HS 748 is a medium-sized turboprop airliner originally designed by the British firm Avro in the late 1950s as a replacement for the aging DC-3s then in widespread service as feederliners. Avro concentrated on performance, notably for STOL operations, and found a dedicated market. 380 aircraft were built by Hawker Siddeley. A larger development, the BAe ATP, attempted to compete with the de Havilland Canada Dash 8 but saw a limited production run.The 748 Series 1 and Series 2 were also licence-produced in India by Hindustan Aeronautics (HAL) as the HAL-748. HAL built 89 aircraft in India, 72 for the Indian Air Force and 17 for the Indian Airlines Corporation.
       
      This model was going to be released as eye candy with the Indo-Pak MOD and has been sitting on my hard drive for at least a year and a half, so it will be released as is since source file was lost.
       
      Model: Veltro2k
      Cockpit: Kesselbrut
      install in Objects/aircraft folder
       
       
      THIS MODEL IS ONLY TO BE DISTRIBUTED AS FREEWARE AND IN NO OTHER CIRCUMSTANCE SHALL IT BE USED, EVEN IN PART OF ANYTHING THAT IS PAYWARE.

    15. Mig-15UTI Midget by Pakso, SF2 Updated Pak

      MiG-15UTI "Midget" Jet Trainer by Pasko, for SF2
      =For SF2, Any and All (but Full-4 Merged Prefered/Reccomended)
       
      Modification, tweeks, compilations and other adjustments to Pasko's MiG-15UTI trainer, to bring in more in line with SF2 requirements.
       
      Data ini tweeks include an all new FM, based off the stock 15bis; please note that as that is usually an AI-only aircraft, there may be some small issues. Fly accordingly.
       
      Several skin/decal sets have been compiled from the Archives, to try and present as complete a set as possible. Included skins are:
       
      Soviet Silver
      EAF Silver
      LSK Silver
      Mozambique (a pale blue)
      Desert camo (Iraqi)
       
      Also included are the weapons (ok, the slipper-style drop tank), 'Early MiG' pilot figures and M15 seat, and the VK-1 sound. New Post-Oct patch SF2 hangar screens are included, rebuilt from the original 2004 release version. As expected, the canopy still operates via the standard or garden variety manual animation keystroke -shift/0.
       
      Is should be noted, that most of the original work was done by suhjake, and is taken from his MiG-15bis & 15UTI pack from 2009 (available here at CA). I just did a little fine tuning and compiling. THIS pak replaces the UTI from that one.
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them!! As always, the usual "Notes" section for other interestering details and stuff.
       
      Happy Landings!

    16. F-8E "Crouze"

      ****Aeronavale F-8E 'Crouze'****
       
      You have downloaded the pride of the French Navy, or at least how I saw it...
       
      This is the air-superiority version of the F-8E. Not a pound of air-to-ground. The French operated the 'Crouze' longer than any other operator of the type, and probably far longer than even they expected to. It's a wonderful aircraft and one of my favorites to fly.
       
      I chose an overall grey livery, it was one that I saw in a book somewhere, and I don't know why the Aeronavale painted them that way, perhaps they ran out of white paint for the undersides, but it was one of the most intriguing looks I've ever seen on it. It didn't last long, they painted them this color around 1975-1978 and then went to their dark grey overall scheme, which has been on it since.

      This package contains a new aircraft, the McDonnell F2H-2 Banshee, as used by the US Navy during the Korean War. That being said, this package =ONLY= contains those units that participated in the conflict. There are 4 units (skins) included in this package. In chronological order:
      VF-172 Blue Bolts (USS ESSEX, 1951)
      VF-11 Red Rippers (USS KEARSARGE, 1952)
      VF-22 Cavaliers -
      VF-62 Gladiators (both aboard USS LAKE CHAMPLAIN, 1953)
      The textureset inis for all skins has a listing of the exact dates of deployment.
      All markings, excepting squadron color bands, are decals. Decal Randomization is TRUE. 24 Modex numbers are supplied for each unit. The 24 'data plaque" BuNums are a pool shared among all the aircraft. Those units that are listed in the game's Squadron List, have their Displayed Name activated by my Patent-Pending 'Fake SqTail' decal. All weapons, sounds, and a pilot figure are supplied. New "box-art" style hangar and loading screens are also included, as is a spare "photo" style loading screen if you get bored with the painting.
      Wingfold and canopy operations are the Standard Animation Keystrokes (tm), Shift/0 (zero) for the canopy, and Shift/9 for the wings.
      When in-game, you'll see
      F2H-2 Banshee (V2K)
      on the aircraft selection drop-down list. This will diferentiate it from any other Banshees you may, or may not, have.
      As is always recommended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. Also, =PLEASE= read the 'Notes' section for other IMPORTANT information on in-game operations.
      Happy Landings!

    18. F-104SM_ROCAF

      F-104SM_ROCAF for SF2
       
      This is my modified F-104G to the F-104S series (which I really like). In the late 1960s, Taiwan was looking at purchasing F-104S from Italy, the deal never went through. Only the Turkish Air Froce bought 40 F-104S from Italy.
       
      Please place the appreciate content from each folder into each specific folder base on SF2 format.
       
      F-104G cockpit .LOD is not included. Please follow Wrench's instruction under the knowledge section.
       
      NOTE:
       
      In this aircraft I used the F-104AS_COCKPIT.LOD I recommend that you copy the cockpit.lod from the Spillone104's (F-104S Mod Pack).

      CIA/USAF working with the ROCAF:
       
      34th Squadron "Black Bat"
      35th Squadron "Black Cat"
       
      A short history...
       
      The ROCAF/Taiwan's secret 34th Squadron's RB-69A/P2V-7U ELINT/SIGINT aircraft flew electronic reconnaissance missions over China and Vietnam. Overall, from 1953 to 1967, 34th Squadron flew 838 missions, 148 Black Bat crew members went down with 15 aircraft. A few were captured after being shot down and later released in Hong Kong. Last squadron's operational mission was flown on Jan. 25, 1967. After 1967, 34th Squadron stopped flying over and near Mainland China, and moved to special ops over Vietnam, until 1972. 12 members of 34th SQ also involved in CIA's Project Main Street in 1971 to 1972, involving tapping North Vietnam's communication link.
       
      The Black Cat Squadron was a squadron of the Republic of China Air Force that flew the U-2 surveillance plane out of Taoyuan Airbase in northern Taiwan, from 1961 to 1974. The formal designation of the squadron was the 35th Squadron, operating under the cover of a high altitude weather research squadron. 26 ROCAF pilots successfully completed U-2 training in the US and flew 220 operational missions, including 102 surveillance flights over the People's Republic of China.
      During the squadron's 14 years of existence, five U-2's were shot down by PRC air defenses, with three pilots killed and 2 pilots captured. One other pilot was killed while performing an operational mission off China coast. Seven other Black Cat U-2s were lost during training missions, killing 6 pilots.
      The squadron usually had only two U-2 assigned to it, sometimes down to just one aircraft. A total of 19 U-2s were assigned to the Black Cat Squadron, over fourteen years.
      The intelligence gathered by the Black Cat Squadron, which included evidence of a military build-up on the Sino-Soviet border, may have contributed to the U.S. opening to China during the Nixon administration by revealing the escalating tensions between the two communist nations. Shortly after Nixon's visit to Beijing, all reconnaissance flights over the People's Republic ceased, and the Black Cat Squadron was officially disbanded in the spring of 1974.

    19. C-141B Starlifter Replacement/Tweeks Pak

      C-141B Starlifter Replacement/Tweeks Pak
       
      = For SF2, Any and All (Full 5 RECCOMENDED!!!) =
       
      Some remods/tweeks/partial reskinning and new decals for the recently (re)released C-141B
      Starlifter.
       
      It is designed to totally REPLACE the C-141B in the Cargo Planes Pak, so you'll be deleting the
      aircraft and decals folder OF the original (re)release, and replace them with these.
       
      All the painted on markings have been removed, and new decals are used in their places. The
      tail flash represents the 438th AW out of McGuire AFB. Many other small changes have been
      effected; new avionics ini, lights moved (or removed), etc and so forth. Not a full and total
      rebuild, just some tweeks for minor improvements. The partial templates I created/used for this
      are included. Maybe someone will step up and give us a Lizard Camo.
      The skins supplied herein are in jpg format.
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read
      them!!! Also, give the "Notes" section a read, in particular on operational usage.
      The Legal Statement has been changed with regards to this aircraft.
       
      **These aircraft herein are released in "AS IS" Condition. Any and all issues/problems that
      cannot be solved via ini edits will exist forever, as new models are unlikely to be created**.
       
      Happy Landings!

    23. QF-104A

      Lockheed QF-104A Starfighter for Strike Fighters 2
       
      The QF-104A was a special modified version of the (Y)F-104A Star-fighter which could be flown remotely controlled. The control was done by F-104 pilots on the ground or inside another aircraft.
      The conversion of the (Y)F-104A to QF-104A was approved on 19 Februar 1960 by the USAF. Testing of the QF was conducted during the period of 9 Januar 1961 to 16 October 1961.
      The reason for converting the (Y)F-104A was the need for high altitude, high mach targets for the development of ground-to-air (BOMARC) and air-to-air (AIM7 - AIM9 - GAR2B - MB1 - AIM4) missiles.
      At the end of the summer in 1972 the QF-104 drone program had come to an end and the F-104D's were handed over to the Puerto Rice ANG which could use them very well. All of the personnel that were in the QF-104 program were reassigned to other duties and bases.
      In total 24 QF-104's have been used by the USAF. Twenthy of them were actually killed as targets and 1 crashed while flying a manned mission. The pilot ejected safely.
      What has happened to the other 3 aircraft is not known but it is very likely that they have been withdrawn from use.
      In total the drone-flight has accomplished 162 unmanned missions. Most of the QF mission were flown at Eglin AFB. However, some were flown at Holloman AFB (NewMexico) and a small number at Point Mugu NAS in California (for the US NAVY).
       
      The QF-104A were of course different from the normal 104’s.
      The most important modifications/changes included (in reality there are a lot more...) :
       
      1 - The QF-104A received anti-skid brakes.
      2 - A smoke-generator was applied (JP-4 pumped into the exhaust).
      3 - Remote control system to fly the aircraft unmanned.
      4 - A dayglow paintscheme was applied. It was an “eyecatcher”.
      Originally the aircraft serial numbers were painted white. This was unsatisfactory as they were not highly visible against the dayglow. For that reason they were changed to black lateron.
      5 - A special system which is able to make in flight air-starts remotely. In fact several were successfully made over the years.
      6 - Due to the high-rate of stall problems with the GE J79 3A engines the QF was repowered by the 3B version of this engine. This solved the stall-problems.
      7 - A self-destruction device was mounted on the QF for emergency reasons. This device was remotely controlled
      8 - A changed cockpit layout to support all typical QF-104 systems.
      9 - Additional gun-bay and case storage fuel tanks.
      10 - Optical (5) camera scoring system. Three camera’s were located in the nose radome and 2 could be found inside the left external fueltank.
      -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       
      Pilot Notes:
       
      The default nation for this plane is USAF "friendly plane".
      Inside the QF-104A there is a folder named "For Mescalero Proving Grounds", if you want to use this aircraft with that mod simply replace the data.ini file. Now it will be a "red" target. :'(
      -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       
      Installation:
       
      Simply copy all the files in the respective directory of your game folder.

    24. Hunter GA.11, FRADU, Fleet Air Arm

      HAWKER HUNTER GA.11, Fleet Requirements and Air Direction Unit, Fleet Air Arm, Royal Navy, RNAS Yeovilton, 1970s
       
      Stand-alone aircraft for SF2 (all variants) only
       
      Contrary to popular belief, the Royal Navy fielded a number of squadrons of Hunters, primarily for training and second line duties, although these were also "mission-capable" if the need had arisen. FRADU was the last FAA unit to use the Hunter.
       
      Further information and photographs here:

      Credits:
      Spinners modified the Thirdwire stock Hunter FGA.9 to make it flyable, and fitted the cockpit. He also provided inspiration for decals.
