SF2 Convair TF-102 Delta Dagger Pack by Coyote Aerospace
By Wrench
SF2 Convair TF-102 Delta Dagger Pack by Coyote Aerospace 6/19/2021
-For SF2 =ONLY= (Full 4/5 Merged Reccomended)
This is the release of the Convair TF-102 Delta Dagger, aka "The Tub". This is the 2 seat trainer version of the F-102 interceptor. Like it's single seat sister, it is also fully combat capable, carrying the same missile and rocket armaments, as well as the MG-10 radar system.
There are several skins within for the 3 users of this aircraft
USAF:
ADC Grey
SEA 3-tone (start 1967)
Export Users:
ADC Grey, Turkish Air Force
SEA 3-Tone, Greek Air Force
All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. The USAF skins have 26 serial numbers, all historically correct for this model. That being said, each F-102 unit, either USAF, Air National Guard or AF Reserve, had at least 2 of these for training and pilot proficincy. No actual units are depicted, so while correct, consider the serials 'generic' in nature. I did, however, add the Air Defence Command patch to the tail of the Grey version. The 3 tone does not carry any distinctive markings.
The serials for the Turkish AF (11 aircraft) and Green Air Force (5) are 100% historically correct. The user list, and the SF2 "date switch" statements for the HAF & TuAF have them starting in 1968. The USAF SEA 3-Tone uses a 1967 start date.
All Weapons (missiles and unguided rockets) are included. These are station specific to the F/TF-102, and should cause no conflicts elsewhere.
On the aircraft selection drop down list, you'll see:
TF-102A Delta Dagger (v2k)
This will differentiate this Tub for any others that may or may not exist.
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. PLEASE read them, before installing!!! For texture artists, the template is also included
Happy Landings!

Canadair CL-13 Sabre F.Mk.4
By paulopanz
In mid-1952, the Sabre Mk.4 went into production with the first one flown on 28 August 1952.
Apart from some minor structural and systems changes, including improved air-conditioning
and gun sight, the Mk 2 and the Mk 4 were identical. Of 438 Mk 4s built, approximately 70
were used temporarily by the RCAF, all surviving examples being passed to the RAF.
The other Sabre 4s went directly to the RAF under a mutual aid program, equipping 11 RAF
squadrons. The majority served in West Germany with NATO, with two squadrons being based
in the UK as part of RAF Fighter Command. The Sabre Mk.4 served with the RAF until mid-1956
when they were replaced by Hawker Hunters. The survivors were overhauled in the UK, fitted
with '6-3' wing modifications and handed to the USAF (which had funded these aircraft) which
in turn passed them on to other NATO members, with the majority going to Italy and Yugoslavia.
WHAT'S IN:
- 2 new planes
- 23 high rez skins
- decals, sounds, weapons etc.
CREDITS:
- Zur model
- Ravenclaw temps
- Wrench first SF-2 edition
- paulopanz skins, decals, ini edits
TO INSTALL:
- all in main mod folder and overwrite
Enjoy!

Canadair CL-13 Sabre F.Mk.5
By paulopanz
On 30 July 1953, the first Sabre Mk.5 flew with the Orenda 10 engine,
which gave it a clear rate of climb and ceiling advantage over earlier
variants. Other Mk 5 improvements included a new oxygen system and
improved maneuverability and low-speed characteristics achieved by
increasing the wing chord by six in (15.2 cm) at the root and three
in. (7.2 cm) at the wing tip along with fitting a small vertical wing
fence. This modification, originated by North American on the F-86F,
dramatically improved maneuverability, though the loss of the slatted
leading edge increased landing speed and degraded low speed handling
considerably. Canadair built 370 Mk 5s with the majority designated
for use in the RCAF's Air Division squadrons in Europe to replace
the Mk.2s. A total of 75 RCAF Sabre 5s were transferred to the German
Luftwaffe during 1957.
WHAT'S IN:
- 2 new planes
- 34 high rez skins
- decals, sounds, weapons etc.
CREDITS:

- Ravenclaw temps
- paulopanz skins, decals, ini edits

This mod is dedicated to BPAO, nothing would have been possible without him.
The Kuwait Air Force (Al-Quwwat al-Jawwiya al-Kuwaitiya) ordered 4 Mirage F1BK-2, a two-seat operational conversion trainer. The extra seat and controls added only 30 cm (12 in) to the length of the fuselage, but at the cost of less internal fuel capacity and the loss of the internal cannon.

SF2 updates, other changes MiGBuster and Ravenclaw (July 2009)
The F-102A was the first of Convairs great 'delta twins'. Its radical shape was unique in USAF service while its speed and powerful weapons capability made it the backbone of Air Defense Command. Its high profile front-line days were relativly short-lived, but the 'Deuce' had a long career which took it to Vietnam and Beyond (1963 - 1969).

SF2 Lockheed C-121G/R7V-1 Super Constellation Pack
By Wrench
SF2 Lockheed C-121G/R7V-1 Super Constellation Pack 5/2/2020
-For SF2, Any and All (Full 4/5 Merged Reccomended)
"Quarantine Approved - Essential Mods"
This package contains a new aircraft, with 4 skin/decal sets, the Lockheed C-121G of the USAF & R7V-1 of the US Navy. These represent the Super Constellation cargo/transport versions as used by both services. This mod is based of the RC/EC-121 by RussoUK
The 4 skins included use the SF2 "date switch" to activate when needed. Most markings are decals, with the exception of (more than a few) painted on markings. All serial/Bunums are 100% historically accurate, but I was unable to attach specific ones to their units. With only 50-odd aircraft ever built, this isn't really a problem. They ARE assigned to their actual US military services (Navy or Air Force). Decal randomization is TRUE. All skins are in jpg format. Sounds, pilot figures, etc are included. Each skin has their own individual Hangar Screen. A 'box art' style Loading Screen is also included. It should also be noted, these are NEW skins, by me, modified/adapted from the existing ones in the C-121/WV-2s previously released.
Inside you'll find:
USAF C-121G:
1501st Air Transport Group, (MATS) c.1954, NMF/White uppers, Travis AFB
"MAC" -unknown unit-, c.1966, NMF/W
USN R7V-2/C-121J:
VR-1 "Starlifters" c.1954, NMF overall, NAS Patuxent River
VR-7 "Seahorses" c.1960, NMF/White uppers, NAS Moffat Field
When in game, on the Aircraft Selection Drop down menu, you'll see:
C-121G/R7V-1 Super Constellation (R)
This will differentiate it from any other military Constellations that may (or may not) be available. The "R" stands for RussoUK, the model maker. Please note, the "R7V-1" designation was changed to "C-121J" in 1962 under SecDef McNamara's overhaul of the military numbering conventions.
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!

North American B-45A/C Tornado
By paulopanz
The North American B-45 Tornado was an early American jet-powered bomber
designed and manufactured by aircraft company North American Aviation.
It has the distinction of being the first operational jet bomber to enter
service with the United States Air Force (USAF)
- B-45A (96 aricraft)
Fifty-five nuclear-capable B-45s arrived in the United Kingdom in 1952.
These were modified with a 1,200 gal (4,542 l) fuel tank in the aft bomb bay.
Despite technical problems, these were Tactical Air Command's first-line
deterrent in Europe. (84Th; 85th; 86th Bs - 47th BG)
- B-45C (10 aircraft)
The B-45C was the first multiengine jet bomber in the world to be refueled in midair.
It carried two 1,200 gal (4,542 l) wingtip fuel tanks, had a strengthened canopy, and
an inflight refueling receptacle. The first B-45C was flown on May 3, 1949.
Only ten were built, and the remaining 33 under construction were converted to RB-45Cs.
WHAT'S IN:
- 2 planes [upgraded LOD];
- 7 skins;
- historical decalsets
CREDITS:
- Veltro2k: plane model, new LOD
- Wrench: original SF-2 planes, templates, decals base
- paulopanz: skins, decals, other upgrades
- references: Warpaint n. 112
- serials: http://forgottenjets.warbirdsresourcegroup.org/B-45.html
OPTIONAL:
- CAMPAIGNE4 (EXP 2 needed) files included (as AI planes)
[B-45C is used for RB-45C]
INSTALL:
- put all files in your mod folder
- the same for optional campaign upgrade
NOTE:
Ettore (Veltro2K) polished his original model and fixed some nose issues.
So I decided to reskin this plane using Kevin (Wrench) superb temps and file base.
Enjoy!

MiG-21SMT
By Gepard
MiG-21SMT
***************
This mod is made for SF2.
----------------------------------------------------------
I. History
One of the major problems of the MiG-21 was the short range of the plane. The reason for it was the small internal fuel volume. To solve the problem additional tanks on the back were installed. First one in the MiG-21PF, later three beginning with MiG-21R. When the soviet Air Force demanded to make the MiG-21 to a nuclear weapon platform soon the short range seemt to be the major problem. So the designers took the latest version of the bird, the MiG-21SM and increased the fuel capacity of the back tanks dramatically. The MiG-21SMT was born.
In the troops the plane was not liked very well. The pilots hated it to fly such an non agile plane. The plane got the nickname "Humpback" and this was not meant positive.
Later a lot of SMT were reworked "in field", the big backtank was removed and replaced by the backtank of the MiG-21bis Lasur. Such reworked planes were called MiG-21ST.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

TU-160 Blackjack - Cold War version for SF2 1.0.0 by UllyB
By UllyB
TU_160 Blackjack - Cold War version for SF2 series project by UllyB
The Tupolev Tu-160, NATO reporting name: Blackjack) is a supersonic, variable-sweep wing heavy strategic bomber designed by the Tupolev Design Bureau in the Soviet Union in the 1970s. It is the largest and heaviest Mach 2+ supersonic military aircraft ever built and second only to the XB-70 Valkyrie in overall length.It is the largest and heaviest combat aircraft, the fastest bomber now in use and the largest and heaviest variable-sweep wing airplane ever flown.
Entering service in 1987, the Tu-160 was the last strategic bomber designed for the Soviet Union. As of 2016, the Russian Air Force's Long Range Aviation branch has at least 16 aircraft in service.The Tu-160 active fleet has been undergoing upgrades to electronics systems since the early 2000s. The Tu-160M modernization programme has begun with the first updated aircraft delivered in December 2014.
*************************************************************************************************************
TU-160[ColdWar] test package readme (Baffmeister observations & conclusions)
This test package requires the addition of the Cockpit folder, Skin folder, and Aircraft Lods to work properly.
MODEL ISSUES:
No model animation ID for the leading edge flaps. They are presently set up on a rotation axis but they don't look very good so it is probably better to just disable them for the release version.
The real TU-160 probably used a combination of ailerons, spoilers and differential H-stab deflections for roll control but only ailerons are available at present. The H-stab is built as one piece so no way to get the differential H-stab deflections functioning.
WEAPON ISSUES:
Slightly modified KH-15 nuclear tipped missle included. The base quantity was increased from 4 to 6 to match the present capacity of AGM missle bay. The maximum capacity is 12 on the real Tu-160 but considering the effect on frame rates with so many nukes going off 6 might even be to many. Maybe 2 per plane would be enough. The maximum of 12 would be a good option for later versions with conventional warheads.
When carrying conventional bombs the accuracy is very poor which is typical for Bombers in game. Maybe someone could put together a "semi smart" bomb that the AI can use that would improve accuracy.
BOMB BAY ISSUES:
The original was set up with both manual doors and automatic doors to operate the rotary launcher. I don't think that can be made to work so just using manual doors.
DATE RANGE:
For testing the start date is set to 1986 so you can fly F-14 intercepts on the TW Iceland NA terrain. The actual service entry date for the first TU-160 version was April, 1987.
AVAILABILITY:
Probably should be RARE or VERY_RARE for a release version but set to VERY_COMMON for test version. Should only take a few trys to get an F-14 intercept against the TU-160 on the Iceland NA terrain.
ANTI-SHIP ISSUES:
When doing player flown ANTI-SHIP missions I haven't been able to get the AI to successfully "Attack My Target". They can't seem to get within the firing parameters for the KH-15 Missile and end up flying around in circles. It's possible to get them to do an attack if you lead them around first and line them up outside 10KM before giving the "Attack My Target" command.
FLIGHT MODEL AND DATA INI ISSUES:
The flight model still needs work as do the min/max extents, damage modeling and collision points.
***************************************************************************
*The model has Triple dragchute as in the real aircraft and has one historical skin made . Also the model has proper crew windows and proper crew positions inside the plane.
