    2. T-34A Mentor for Argentina

      First, my congratulations to russouk2004 for the bird!
      A special thanks to Wrench for the support. 
      The Beechcraft Mentor in the Argentine Air Force
       
      By the mid-50s, the Air Force required a basic trainer capable of replacing the nationally manufactured I.Ae.22 DL and the Fiat G-46, then in service. The choice fell on the modern Beechcraft B-45 Mentor that just three years ago had entered service with the USAF.
       
      The contract signed with the North American company in 1956 contemplated the acquisition of 15 units manufactured at the Beechcraft plant located in Kansas and another 75 that would come in kit form to be assembled at the Military Aviation Factory.
       
      The 15 examples manufactured in the United States arrived in the country in flight on June 20, 1957, while the assembly of the other 75 began in 1959 and ended in 1962. The first example manufactured in Córdoba took flight on 11/1 /1959.
       
      Initially, the Mentors entered service with Training Group I of the I Morón Air Brigade, where they served between 1962 and 1970, later they would move to the VII Morón Air Brigade and finally they would form part of the Military Aviation School. Some copies were in service in the Reconquista Military Air Detachment, between 1962 and 1963, these copies would later go to the Directorate of Development, being re-registered as LQ-..., these devices would go to the EAM in 1969.
       
      In 1979, 50 new 260 hp Continental IO-470-N12B engines were purchased to re-engine the 41 Mentor in operation at that time, the works were carried out in the Material Area of Río IV.
       
      Mentor in action:
       
      Despite being a pure trainer, the T-34 served during the 70s as reconnaissance and aerial observation aircraft in search and attack of insurgent positions during Operation Independence, carried out on the soil of the province of Tucumán and in Operation Torrión.
       
      The last days of the Mentor:.
       
      Between 1996 and 1999, the former LMAASA proceeded to carry out structural reinforcement, avionics renewal and fine-tuning work on 30 still-operable Mentors, this served for a handful of copies to continue flying until the year 2011, at which time they are permanently discharged after almost 50 years of service.
       
      On September 18, 2001, a fatal accident occurred during the baptism flight of the first-year cadets of the Military Aviation School, when one of the aircraft crashed after brushing the control tower with its wing, killing its two occupants. . From that moment on, the fame of the Mentor was undermined, but its operation continued, until on October 8, 2010, the E-046 crashed after taking off, due to a planted engine. Finally, in August 2012, the Air Force decides to decommission the venerable T-34 Mentor.
       
      In 2002 and 2003, two second-hand units were acquired from the Uruguayan Air Force, which in turn had received them from the Spanish Air Force."
      extract from here https://amilarg.com.ar/beech-t-34.html  (What a site!)
      I strongly recommend you to fly it over the fantastic Gepard´s new Rio de La Plata terrain. Thanks boss!
       
      Have fun!!!

    4. SF2 TMF Mirage IIICJ (IDF) Upgrade/Remod Pack

      SF2 TMF Mirage IIICJ (IDF) Upgrade/Remod Pack       3/1/2024
      -For SF2, Any and All-(SF2:I and/or Full 5 Merged Suggested)
      This is a full upgrade/remod pack for The Mirage Factory's Dassault Mirage IIICJ series as used by the Israeli Defense Force Air Force. Included in this package are 2 complete versions of the Mirage IIICJ:
      = Mirage IIICJ
      101 Squadron
      119 Squadron
      117 Squadron (all with 1962 start date, NMF)
      101 Squadron
      117 Squadron (both start 1969, in 3 tone Desert Camo)
      117 Squadron (Late <1973, Camo with Orage ID triangles)
      = Mirage IIICJ2
      101 Squadron (3 tone camo)
      117 Squadron (<74, 3 tone, Orange ID triangles)
      253 Squadron (<79, 2 tone Grey)
      They are set up and labeled to cause NO conflicts with the Mirage IIICJ's available as stock within the game.  Skins remain in their original bmp format. Almost all markings are decals, and Decal Randomization is TRUE. As you can see above, the SF2 date switch is active for both aircraft. All necessary items are provided, weapons (drop tanks), pilots, seats, sounds, effects, and so forth.
      When in-game, on the Aircraft Selection Dropdown you'll see:
      Mirage IIICJ Shahak (TMF)
      or
      Mirage IIICJ(2) Shahak (TMF)
      So you can't mistake them for anything other than TMF Birds (tm).
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. All original readmes, when discoverable, are included. The 'Change Log' is, as always, in the Notes section below. Also, you will have a choice for avionics ini for the CJ-2, as historically, the radars were removed.
      Happy Landings!

    5. P-3F "Orion" (Iran) Pak by Florian/stahri/Wrench

      P-3F "Orion" (Iran) Pak  by Florian/stahri/Wrench        1/3/23
      -- For SF2, Any & All --
      This is a mod to Florian's Lockheed P-3C "Orion" martime patrol and anti-submarine aircraft, creating the P-3F as used by the Imperial Iranian Air Force, and later the Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force. Consider this a "new(ish)" airplane. This mod is based on Starhi's work. (thank you!)
      The skin is all new, from Viper63a's enhanced template, and in jpg format. It is, however still based off Starhi's original. All new decals are included. Decal randomization is TRUE (I mean, c'mon -- there's only 6 airplanes!!!!). All markings are decals. All serials are 100% historically correct.
      All sounds, weapons* and various misc stuff are included. (*weapons are the same as the ones included in the recently uploaded P-3C Remod Pack). The SF2 date switch is "on", so in 1979 the IRIAF skin will become active. The only difference is the fin flash.
      As always, =READ= the enclosed readme for full, detailed instructions. PLEASE read it!!!
      Happy Landings!

      This is a full upgrade/remod pack for The Mirage Factory's Dassault Mirage IIIE as used by the French Air Force.
      Even though there is =NOT= a stock 3W Mirage IIIE, this is set up and labeled to cause NO conflicts with any (other) Mirages available within the game. Skins remain in their original bmp format.  All necessary items are provided, weapons, pilots, seats, sounds, effects, and so forth (most weapons used ARE stock 3W items, excepting drop tanks).

    7. SF2 TMF Mirage IIIC (AdA) Upgrade/Remod Pack

      SF2 TMF Mirage IIIC (AdA) Upgrade/Remod Pack       2/21/2024
      -For SF2, Any and All-
      This is a full upgrade/remod pack for The Mirage Factory's Dassault Mirage 3C series as used by the French Air Force. Included in this package are 2 complete versions of the Mirage IIIC:

      They are set up and labeled to cause NO conflicts with the Mirage III's available as stock within the game or as a DLC from 3rd Wire. Everything needed is supplied, excepting those weapons used that are stock 3W items. Skins remain in their original bmp format. Each skin has 26 letter and number decals, and Decal Randomization is TRUE. Almost all markings are decals. The SF2 date switch is used on the standard IIIC, changing to the Air Defense Blue in 1975.

    8. SF2 TMF Mirage IIIEA (FAA) Upgrade/Remod Pack

      SF2 TMF Mirage IIIEA (FAA) Upgrade/Remod Pack       3/14/2024
       
      -For SF2, Any and All-(Full 5 Merged Suggested)
      This is a full upgrade/remod pack for The Mirage Factory's Dassault Mirage IIIEA as used by the Argentine Air Force (Fuerza Aérea Argentina).
      Even though there is =NOT= a stock 3W Mirage IIIEA, this is set up and labeled to cause NO conflicts with any (other) Mirages available for the game (including the Bandidos version). Skins remain in their original bmp format.  All necessary items are provided, weapons, pilots, seats, sounds, effects, and so forth (most weapons used ARE stock 3W items, with few exceptions). This is a "nationalized" single-user only aircraft.
      This aircraft is supplied with 2 skins:
      Ar1 - 8th Air Brigade, Camo
      LoViz - Grupo 6 (LoViz Grey <1990)
      Both skins use the same 'pool' of 16 ID/serial numbers, although the Lo-Viz only carries it's number on the front nose gear door (probably not historically correct - simply done for playability). These decals are the originals as issued in 2005. As can be expected, the SF2 Date Switch (tm) is active, and the LoViz skin starts in 1990.
      When in-game, on the Aircraft Selection Dropdown you'll see:
      Mirage IIIEA (TMF)
      So you can't mistake them for anything else but TMF Birds (tm).
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. All original readmes, when discoverable, are included. The 'Change Log' is, as always, in the Notes section below.

    12. Mirage F1EE (1992-2000)

      Mirage F1EE (1992-2000)
      In June 1975, with tension growing with Morocco, Spain decided to strengthen its Air Force and bought 15 Mirage F1C that were allocated to Albacete AB. In mid-1976 there was still some tension with Morocco and Algerian and Libyan MiG-25 flights on the Mediterranean, which would lead the Spanish Air Force to purchase ten more Mirage F1C and two years later order 48 Mirage F1C and F1E.
      F1EE_Late specifics:
      Same as EE_Early plus:
      extra AIM-9 on P2 stations (to be accurate, not sure all aircraft had the modification, maybe just experimental on one) Seat Mk6 Cockpit layout modified (provision for future ALR-300 on left side) Covered units :
      Ala 14.
      This addon is and will in all cases remain freeware.
      Released under CombatAce Fair-Use terms.
      Enjoy

    13. T-34A Mentor for Uruguay

      A bit of history. Extract from Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/399877246768865/photos/a.783005898455996/866828416740410/?type=3

      "In 1976, Fuerza Aérea Uruguaya (Fuerza Aerea Uruguaya - FAU) began to seek a replacement for its North American AT-6 trainers and to complement its fleet of Cessna T-41D primary trainers, which had been acquired in 1969.
      Once the Beechcraft T-34 was considered as a suitable substitute for the "tejanos", to be incorporated into the FAU inventory, these mentors were registered FAU-660 to 684. La Escuela de Aviación Militar (Escuela Militar de Aviación - EMA) I received four planes, these were registered FAU-669, 670, 676 and 677, while FAU kept two planes: FAU-650, 651, 660, 662, 663, 664, 665, 666, 668, 671, 672 and 678, all operating with Grupo de Aviación N° 1. On July 14, 1980, four mentors were acquired by Chilean Naval Aviation, namely a T-34A, serialized FAU-651, and three T -34Bs, which received serial FAU-685 to 687.
      In 1982, when the (Centro de Instrucción y Entrenamiento de Vuelo Avanzado - CIEVA) was created, Group No. 1 of Aviation was designated as an "attack" unit, being replaced from its T-34B by the IA-58 Pucará. In turn, the T-34s were transferred to CIEVA just created.
      With the passage of time, the wear and tear, the accidents and the presumed cuts passed the invoice and the number of operating aircraft decreased considerably, until the point of having only 10 planes available for training at CIEVA and EMA for mid-1989.
      Fortunately, the following year, through a subsidy from the Spanish Government, the FAU received one T-34A that had been withdrawn from the Air Force of that country between 1987 and 1988, and had been stored in very good conditions. These T-34A arrived by boat in Uruguay on March 8, 1991, joining FAU on April 24, with registration numbers FAU-630 to 646.
      In May 1992, two T-34As were transferred to Naval Aviation, these being FAU-630 and 639.
      After 20 years of service, it was considered necessary to modernize the EMA training fleet, so in 1999 FAU awarded a contract for 13 Aermacchi SF.260s to a company in the United States."

      * In this pack, everything BUT plane´s numbers and skins are not 100% correct as the planes were used mainly as trainers. This should be pretty boring! *
      Anyone is allowed to use the blank skins for other skins without ask me any permission, but don´t forget to share it!

    14. SF2 TMF Nesher (IDF) Upgrade/Remod Pack

      SF2 TMF Nesher (IDF) Upgrade/Remod Pack       4/5/2024
      -For SF2, Any and All-(SF2:I and/or Full 5 Merged Suggested)
      This is a full upgrade/remod pack for The Mirage Factory's Dassault Nesher as used by the Israeli Defense Force Air Force. Included in this package are 3 different skins:
      101 Squadron (Camo)
      253 Squadron (Camo)
      117 Squadron (Camo w/Orange ID Triangles <1973)
      They are set up and labeled to cause NO conflicts with the Nesher available as stock within the game or any others that may exist.  Skins remain in their original bmp format. Almost all markings are decals, and Decal Randomization is TRUE. All decals used are stock, in game items (you don't need SF2I for these) As you can see above, the SF2 date switch is active for the later, "Orange ID Triangle" skin. 101 & 253 Squadrons share the same start date (no actual date listed), meaning they're avaliable from the initial date of service, and are available to choose from the drop down menu. All necessary items are provided, weapons (drop tanks), pilots, seats, sounds, effects, and so forth. Some, you've probably got already!!!
      When in-game, on the Aircraft Selection Dropdown you'll see:
      Nesher S (TMF)
      So you can't mistake them for anything other than TMF Birds (tm). This also means, there'll be NO conflict with the other Neshers, of mods thereof, out there.
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. All original readmes, when discoverable, are included. The 'Change Log' is, as always, in the Notes section below.
      Happy Landings!

    15. SF2 IAI Dagger (FAA) by The Mirage Factory Upgrade/Remod Pack

      SF2 IAI Dagger (FAA) by The Mirage Factory Upgrade/Remod Pack       4/4/2024
      -For SF2, Any and All-(Full 5 Merged Suggested)
      This is a full upgrade/remod pack for The Mirage Factory's IAI Dagger as used by the Argentine Air Force (Fuerza Aérea Argentina or FAA).
      Skins remain in their original bmp format.  All necessary items are provided, weapons, pilots, seats, sounds, effects, and so forth (most weapons used ARE stock 3W items, with few exceptions). This is a "nationalized" single-user only aircraft.
      This aircraft is supplied with 3 skins:
      Camo with NO ID bands (original skin)
      Camo with Blue ID Bands
      Camo with Yellow ID Bands (both with a 1982 start date)
      All skins use the same 'pool' of 39 ID/serial numbers. All serials are 100% hisorically accurate. As can be expected, the SF2 Date Switch (tm) is active, although the 2 Color Banded Birds (tm) both have the 1982 start date for use during the Falkland War (as best as my research could narrow down)  Also, the Date Switch is used on the Loadout ini, as newer missiles become available.
      When in-game, on the Aircraft Selection Drop-down you'll see:
      Dagger (TMF)
      So you can't mistake them for anything else but TMF Birds (tm). Also. this will diferentiate it from the Other Daggers available
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. All original readmes, when discoverable, are included. The 'Change Log' is, as always, in the Notes section below.

    17. SF2 T-34B Mentor (USN) Upgrade Pack by RussoUK/Wrench

      SF2 T-34B Mentor (USN) Upgrade Pack by RussoUK/Wrench       1/12/2023
      -For SF2, Any and All (Full 4/5 Merged plus Expansion 1 Recommended)
      Modifications to RussoUK's fun little T-34B Mentor (USN) make some major and minor adjustments in skins, decals, data ini and other misc stuff. This is the full aircraft, with all the bits as issued by Russ in the original release. Just in case you don't have said original release, you won't have to go scrambling around trying to find the "weapons" (ok, drop tank) pilots and sounds. Also, because I was/am too lazy to pick out and remove stuff. Easier this way :)
      All new historically correct decals have been created. It should be stated that the serial numbers (BuNums) and Modex numbers, while historically correct, are generic in nature representing no particular base unit or squadron. The SF2 Date SWtich (tm) is active, and will cause the skins to change on particular dates.
      The skins are:
      Navy1 -- VT-1 "Eaglets"(>1965) Aircraft is painted in standard "Trainer Yellow"
      Navy2 -- VT-1 "Eaglets" (<1965). Aircraft is painted white/orange ID panels
      the < and > indicate "before 1965" and "after 1965". As you can see, they represent Mentors from VT-1 "Eaglets" based at NAS Saufley Field, Florida.
      Most markings are decals; exceptions would be wing insignia/nation names on fuselage and/or wings. Other markings are decals, and Decal Randomization is TRUE. There are 18 serial/BuNum numbers for each aircraft; both skins share the same 'pool' of decals. The aircraft keeps all it's original designations, so will appear the same in-game as the original download. When in game, on the Aircraft Selection Dropdown menu, you'll see:
      Beech T-34B Mentor USN (R)
      Hopefully, this will differentiate it from any other T-34B Mentors that may (or may not) be available. The "R" stands for RussoUK, the model maker.
      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.
      Happy Landings!

    18. SF2 TMF Mirage IIICZ (SAAF) by PCG Upgrade/Remod Pack

      SF2 TMF Mirage IIICZ (SAAF) by PCG Upgrade/Remod Pack       3/24/2024
      -For SF2, Any and All-(Full 5 Merged Suggested)
      Found in the Archives! Didn't even know there WAS a TMF version! But here it is!!! :)
      This is a full upgrade/remod pack for The Mirage Factory's Dassault Mirage IIICZ by PCG as used by the South AFrican Air Force.
      Even though there is =NOT= a stock 3W Mirage IIICZ per se, this is set up and labeled to cause =NO= conflicts with any (other) Mirages available for the game (including the version built by Ludo M.54 from a stock 3W Mirage). Skins remain in their original bmp format.  All necessary items are provided, weapons, pilots, seats, sounds, effects, and so forth (most weapons used ARE stock 3W items, with few exceptions). This is a "nationalized" single-user only aircraft.
      This aircraft is supplied with 3 skins:
      "NMF"- as originally delivered
      "Camo1" - Tan/Green (<1971)
      "Lo-Viz" - 2-tone Blue & Grey (~1982)
      All 16 CZs served with No.2 Squadron, “Flying Cheetahs”.
      All skins use the same 'pool' of 16 ID/serial numbers. As can be expected, the SF2 Date Switch (tm) is active, and the LoViz skin starts in 1982 (best guess! based upon Ludo's Mirage F1CZ_Late). Also, the Date Switch is used on the Loadout ini, as newer missiles become available.
      When in-game, on the Aircraft Selection Dropdown you'll see:
      Mirage IIICZ (TMF)
      So you can't mistake them for anything else but TMF Birds (tm).
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. All original readmes, when discoverable, are included. The 'Change Log' is, as always, in the Notes section below. As an Extra Added Bonus (tm), I've included a bunch of PDFs I found online, documenting the Development & History of the Mirage III & its variants in SAAF service. They are OUTSTANDING docs, and were the basis for some of the changes I've implemented here. Well worth the read!
      Happy Landings!

    19. Stealth SLUFs : A-7D in service with the 4450th Tactical Group

                                                                         Stealth SLUFs : A-7D in service with the 4450th Tactical Group
      This mod adds several new skins to showcase the stock ThirdWire A-7D as it appeared with the 4450th Tactical Group in the 1980s. The mod features their special version of the European 1 camo scheme as well as the SEA wraparound they appeared in for about the first year of operation.
      The 4450th Tactical Group was the first unit to operate the then ultra secret F-117A Nighthawk. In order to maintain a cover other than "Stealth Fighter", the group also operated around a dozen A-7Ds to develop "avionics for the A-7D". They flew the Corsair II from mid 1981 until 1989, after the F-117A program became public a few mnths prior.
                  REQUIREMENTS
      This mod requires you to have STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 EUROPE for the A-7D_75 and _78 it is based on.
              INSTALLATION
      UNZIP MAIN FOLDER, PUT OBJECTS FOLDER INTO DESIRED MOD FOLDER
                  Included
      2 Aircraft :                        A-7D_78, A-7D_83
      Skins and tga sets         covers three major eras of the unit's existence, as well as a suprise skin
      historic serials                well, fairly historic. this was a tough nut to crack and airframes are matched to units as best as possible.
      weapons                          regular bombs modded by me to boost base supply levels. Precision guided weapons added given the focus of the Group
      ini edits                            mostly tweaking weapons loadouts.

    20. Mirage F1EE ALR

      Mirage F1EE_ALR
      This mod is dedicated to BPAO, nothing would have been possible without him.
      In June 1975, with tension growing with Morocco, Spain decided to strengthen its Air Force and bought 15 Mirage F1C that were allocated to Albacete AB. In mid-1976 there was still some tension with Morocco and Algerian and Libyan MiG-25 flights on the Mediterranean, which would lead the Spanish Air Force to purchase ten more Mirage F1C and two years later order 48 Mirage F1C and F1E.
      F1EE_ALR specifics:
      Same as EE_Late except:
      - RWR AN/ALR-300 installed instead of RWR BF - 6 aircraft were modified
      Covered units :
      Ala 14.
      This addon is and will in all cases remain freeware.
      Released under CombatAce Fair-Use terms.
      Enjoy
      The Mirage F-1 Team.

    21. SF2 TMF Mirage 5F Pack

      SF2 TMF Mirage 5F Pack       5/22/2024
      Updated 5/24/24, v2.0
      -For SF2, Any and All-(Full 5 Merged Suggested)
      This is a NEW aircraft, based on an pre-existing TMF aircraft LOD, used to (re)create the Mirage 5F fighter-bomber as used by the French Air Force. To let you all know, no "official" 5F was ever created and relased by TMF. So, consider this an "un-official" version <gr>!
      This mod is set up and labeled to cause NO conflicts with the Mirage 5F available from within the game (Third Wire) or any others that may exist.  Skins remain in their original bmp format. Most markings are decals, with the exception of the AdA Rudder tri-color bands on the NMF skin. Decal Randomization is TRUE.  All necessary items are provided, serial number decals, weapons, pilots, seats, sounds, effects, and so forth. Some, you've probably got already. If I missed any, PLEASE let me know and I'll get it fixed. The canopy operates with the Standard Animations Keystroke (tm), Shift/0 (zero)
      The aircraft is supplied with 2 skins for EC 3/13 Auvergne:
      NMF (start date=1)
      Euro Camo (<1975)
      As indicated, the SF2 "date switch" is active.
      When in-game, on the Aircraft Selection Drop down you'll see:
      Mirage 5F (TMF)
      So you can't mistake it for anything other than TMF Birds (tm). This will also diferentiate THIS one from the 3W 5F that's stock in game, but is AI only. On that note, the supplied cockpit (by BPAO & Crusader) was originally designed for use with the 3W AI Mirage 5F in 2017. For those wishing to do so, I've supplied the needed inis, and the instructional read-me. They are in a folder within the main aircraft folder. Ya can't miss it! <gr>.
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. All original readmes, when discoverable, are included. The 'Change Log' is, as always, in the Notes section below.
      Good Hunting & Happy Landings!

    22. Thunderjets - Kongelige Danske Flyvevåbnet

      Royal Danish Air Force Thunderjets. 
      Basic modding skills are required to run this mod.  (copy/paste, mod folder structure, etc.) 
      Install:
      Copy and paste specific folders into the correct destination.
      Mod requires new fuel tanks that are added to the mod - generally RF version uses new fuel tanks and recon wing tip pods.
      In the game under a prefix. KDF. * you will find F-84E , F-84G and RF-84G
      * Kongelige Danske Flyvevåbnet
      F-84E served very shortly for testing purposes, and F-84G ended active service in 1961. RF-84G was a European poor-man recon aircraft, using modified fuel tanks for a camera pod. Several countries used a similar concept for interim recon flight in the case of Denmark they were waiting for RF-84F. Two different recon pod setups are added, also counterbalance fuel tank and additional Fletcher fuel tanks.
      RF-84G - KA-F and KA-G never received 'RF mod' but served in 729 Esk FR flight, during these years.
      This is a very old model with some flaws....but as long as we do not have a new one I made new skins. 
      All skins are in 4096x4096 format based on new templates. You can easily resize as needed. 
      During service years, after maintenance, airframes were not always returned to the previous original squadron - resulting in a mess of squadron colors (until someone in the squadron repainted again) - but I believe I have the correct squadron colors for those years represented in a mod. 
      All serial numbers are historically correct for specific squadrons/years of service in the Danish Air Force.
      Check weapon names in loadout.ini and sounds to match your files.
       
      Credits.
      Model - russoUK.
      Yours truly  -  mambo jumbo like skins, decals, Fletcher fuel tanks and recon pod mods, research...
      Who made this cockpit? Also russoUK?

      No animal was harmed during the creation of this mod.
      Only Italian coffee was used, mod may contain cookie crumbs and nuts.
      Weapons.
      I have added Ravenclaw's HVAR rockets as the data file is correct only for Ravenclaw's HVARs/
       
      Have fun.
      Report bugs. *
      Expect the unexpected.
      Live long and prosper.
      Jarek Hereda
      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.
      UNDER THE COMBAT ACE MODDERS AGREEMENT
       
      * report BIG bugs...If I misspelled something or forgot to add a sound file...for dog's sake try to fix it.  Not like this mod is using some ancient or extraterrestrial files..

    23. SF2 TMF K'fir C1 & F-21A Lion Upgrade/Remod Pack

      SF2 TMF K'fir C1 & F-21A Lion Upgrade/Remod Pack       5/3/2024
      -For SF2, Any and All-(SF2:I and/or Full 5 Merged Suggested)
      This is a full upgrade/remod pack for The Mirage Factory's IAI K'fir C1 & F-21A Lion as used by the Israeli Defense Force Air Force, and the US Navy and US Marine Corps. The later two were used in dissimilar combat training as adversery aircraft (see Notes).
      Included in this package are the 2 full aircraft, with one or more skins:
      Kfir C1:
      101 Squadron (Camo w/ID Panels)
      F-21A Lion:
      VF-43 "Challengers" (USN) (2-tone Grays)
      VMAT-401 "Snipers" (USMC) (IDF style Desert Camo)
      They are set up and labeled to cause =NO= conflicts with the Kfirs available as stock within the game or any others that may exist.  Skins remain in their original bmp format. National markings are painted on, and my (Patent Pending) fake insignia and SqTail decals are active (when needed), allowing the squadron's name & Nation Name to be displayed on the Loadout screen. Serial number Decal Randomization is TRUE. All serial numbers are 100% historically accurate for their various units (all 32 for the IDF).  All necessary items are provided, serial number decals, weapons (drop tanks), pilots, seats, sounds, effects, and so forth. Some, you've probably got already. If I missed any, PLEASE let me know and I'll get it fixed.
      The canards have been removed from the C1 through the use of the 'remove component trick'. The F-21A retains it's canards. For both models, the canopy operates with the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0 (zero). The animation for the intake shock cones has also been corrected, thanks to Crusader.
      When in-game, on the Aircraft Selection Drop down you'll see:
      Kfir C1 (TMF)
      and
      F-21A Lion (C.1P) (TMF)
      So you can't mistake them for anything other than TMF Birds (tm). Of course, this also removes confusion from the stock 3rd Wire Birds too (although the F-21A IS a DLC).
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. All original readmes, when discoverable, are included. The 'Change Log' is, as always, in the Notes section below.
      Happy Landings!

      SF2 TMF Mirage 5BA Upgrade/Remod Pack       4/26/2024
      -For SF2, Any and All-(Full 5 Merged Suggested)
      This is a full upgrade/remod pack for The Mirage Factory's Mirage 5BA as used by the Belgian Air Force. This mod contains 1 aircraft, with 1 skin representing No. 2 Squadron, BAF.
      This mod is set up and labeled to cause NO conflicts with the Mirage 5BA available from within the game (aka: DLC #7) or any others that may exist.  Skin remain in its original bmp format. National marikings are painted on, and my (Patent Pending) fake insignia and SqTail decals are active, allowing the squadron's name & Nation Name to be displayed on the Loadout screen. Serial number Decal Randomization is TRUE.  All necessary items are provided, serial number decals, weapons (drop tanks), pilots, seats, sounds, effects, and so forth. Some, you've probably got already!!! If I missed any, PLEASE let me know and I'll get it fixed.
      When in-game, on the Aircraft Selection Drop down you'll see:
      Mirage 5BA (TMF)
      So you can't mistake it for anything other than TMF Birds (tm). This will also diferentiate THIS one from the 5BA & BA_80 from 3rd Wire's DLC #7. This aircraft is 'sorta' both versions.
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. All original readmes, when discoverable, are included. The 'Change Log' is, as always, in the Notes section below.
      Happy Landings!

    25. SF2 TMF Mirage 5DE & Mirage 5SDE Upgrade/Remod Pack

      SF2 TMF Mirage 5DE & Mirage 5SDE Upgrade/Remod Pack       5/10/2024
      -For SF2, Any and All-(Full 5 Merged Suggested)
      This is a full upgrade/remod pack for The Mirage Factory's Mirage 5SD of the Lybian Air force, and the Mirage 5SDE as used by the Egyptian Air Force. As you can see, this mod contains 2 aircraft:
      Mirage 5DE:
      No. 1030 Sqdn, LARAF
      Mirage 5SDE:
      No.69 Sqdn (Early)
      No.69 Sqdn (<1977 w/ID Panels), EAF
      This mod is set up and labeled to cause NO conflicts with the Mirage 5SD and SDE available from within the game (aka: DLC #28) or any others that may exist.  Skins remain in its original bmp format. All markings are decals. Serial number Decal Randomization is TRUE. The 5SDE for Egypt has all 54 historicaly correct serials; these change from 1000 series to 9000 series with the date change to the ID paneled skin. Best Research (tm) shows the LARAF numbers to be correct as well.  New Hangar and Loading screens are included as well. The canopies operate with the standard animation keystroke, Shift/0 (zero)
      All necessary items are provided, serial number decals, weapons (drop tanks), pilots, seats, sounds, effects, and so forth.  Some, you've probably got already!!! If I missed any, PLEASE let me know and I'll get it fixed.
      When in-game, on the Aircraft Selection Dropdown you'll see:
      Mirage 5SD (TMF)
      and
      Mirage 5SDE (TMF)
      So you can't mistake it for anything other than TMF Birds (tm). This will also differentialize these from the 3rd Wire stock & DLC versions.
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. All original readmes, when discoverable, are included. The 'Change Log' is, as always, in the Notes section below.
