SF2 RA-5C Vigilante Pack v.2 9/27/2019
-For SF2, Any and All (Full 4/5 Merged Reccomended)
This is a revamp of Julhiem's RA-5C "Vigilante" carrier based recon aircraft. It has has several updates/upgrades/changes to make it more SF2 compliant. This is the complete aircraft, with everything included. If you have any earlier version(s) it is suggested you delete BOTH the aircaft and decals subfolders, as this version replaces them it toto. Or at least, remove or store them elsewhere.
The aircraft comes with 6 skins, including the original released single skin. These skins are:
RVAH-1 'Smokin' Tigers (USS Independence 1965, CVW-7, SEA, first combat cruise)
RVAH-5 'Savage Sons' (USS Ranger CVW? 19??) **
RVAH-6 'Fleurs' (USS Kittyhawk 1971, CVW-11 SEA)
RVAH-7 'Peacemakers' (USS Ranger, 1978/79, WesPac, Squadron's Final Cruise)
RVAH-9 'Hoot Owls' (USS Saratoga 1967, CVW-3 Med cruise)
RVAH-11 'Checkertails' (USS constellation, CVW-9 SEA 1971/72)
**= original release skin
Almost all markings are decals, excepting some painted-on squadron insignia. Serial/BuNums are 100% historically accurate (by unit) Decal randomization is TRUE. Skins remain in bmp format, as they're not that large. The SF2 "date switch" is active.
The canopy opens/closes with the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0 (zero).
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" for list of changes.
If there's anything missing or "off", please let me know and I'll try to find it. This mod got lost in the shuffle with several other large projects.
Happy Landings!

This package represents the CF-100 MK-4B version as used by the RCAF in North America. The squadrons/skins were based in Canada so this pack isn't a good fit for a typical install and should only be used in a North American centered installation.
The date range runs from March, 1955, until December, 1962.
NOTE: Due to the large size of this upload 3 additional skins will be uploaded as a separate package.
I'm using the NORAD suffix to avoid any confusion with the European versions although the CF-100 MK4 service introduction pre-dates NORAD by about 3 years.
The skin jpeg's are quite large and I've noticed some frame rate issues when flying over Hi Res terrains but no issues over the stock terrains. The model does use distance lods.
INSTALLATION:
Normal installation, just copy and past the files into the appropriate mod folders. If you already have the MK-4A installed you can skip the sounds, decals, pilots [seat] and weapons except the CF-100_RP which has had a not required jpeg removed, or just remove the jpeg from the rocket pod that was included in the MK4A upload.
Additional information in the ReadMe.

The Canberra_2 engine sound and Mk3 ejection seat are included but not sure who made them. There is also a CF-100windsound which I might have made but don't remember for certain.
