    1. Saab 105
      by AngelP & JonathanRL
      The Saab 105 is a Swedish high-wing, twinjet trainer aircraft developed in the early sixties as a private venture by Saab AB. The Swedish Air Force, which had opted procured the type for various roles, issued the aircraft with the designation Sk 60. The Sk 60 entered service in 1967, replacing the ageing De Havilland Vampire fleet.
      The Swedish Air Force bought a total of 150 aircraft and another 40 were exported to Austria, designated Saab 105Ö. The Saab 105 is also the aircraft used by Swedish Air Force display team Team 60 and was formerly used by two display teams of the Austrian Air Force, "Karo As" and "Silver Birds".
      This package contains two Flyable Aircraft.
      Sk 60B:
      Two-seat attack version for the Swedish Air Force, modified from Sk 60A with new weapons sight.
      Sk 60C:
      Two-seat ground attack/reconnaissance version for the Swedish Air Force with extended camera nose. One new-build prototype and 29 conversions from Sk 60A.
      INSTALLATION:
      Copy the package into your Mod Folder of your choice.
      Have fun.

    2. SF2 TA-4F Skyhawk "Vietnam FastFACs" - Revamp
      =============================================
      *** SF2V required for the A-4F Cockpit, that is used here. Tested in full 5-merged installation ***
      This is a revamp of Wrenchs Update of 331Killerbees TA-4F FastFAC-Pack. ;)
      Skins have been redone in greater resolution with more details. Decals are new (although original Decals are still there). Some bits of the plane are removed by ini-edit and exchanged by FakePilot-Addons to add more details and get rid of the shadow-issue caused by the outer wing pylons.
      5 new Droptanks are added (2x 150gal, 2x300gal, 1x400gal).
      BuNos are always correct for the squadron and many are also correct for the plane, although sources and pictures are very rare.
      H&MS-11 comes in 3 variations (CAG, Large Stripe + Bunny on Tail and Small Stripe without Bunny) that were used side by side as it seems
      H&MS-12 has CAG-Bird
      H&MS-13 has 2 Skins - The one from the original pack was used after Vietnam, but I redid it and included it. The one used in Vietnam has no special markings and a different Tailcode-style. I only found 1 pic as reference, so maybe other variation are possible too.

      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. Sea Venom FAW.21 - Improved version, equivalent to Venom NF.3. 4,950 lbf (22.1 kN) Ghost 104 engine, AI Mk 21 (US APS-57) radar. 167 built.
      Sea Venom FAW.22 - More powerful (5,300 lbf (23.6 kN)) Ghost 105 engine, giving improved high-altitude performance. 39 new built.
      Sea Venom ECM.21-22 - Six FAW.21s modified from 1957 for ECM purposes. ECM.22Equivalent of ECM.21, based on FAW.22. No armament.
       
      In 1956 Sea Venoms, alongside RAF Venoms, took part in the Suez War which began on 31 October. They were from Nos. 809, 892, 893 Naval Air Squadrons
      based on the light fleet carrier HMS Albion and fleet carrier HMS Eagle.
      The Anglo-French invasion, codenamed Operation Musketeer, took place in response to the nationalisation of the Suez Canal by Egypt's leader, General Nasser.
      The air war began on the 31 October 1956 signalling the beginning of the Suez War. The Sea Venoms launched many sorties, bombing a variety of targets in Egypt in the process.
      By 1959, the Sea Venom began to be replaced in Royal Navy service by the de Havilland Sea Vixen, an aircraft that also had the distinctive twin-boom tail.
      The Sea Venom would be withdrawn from frontline service soon afterwards. The type continued to fly with second line FAA units until the last were withdrawn in 1970

    6. 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.

    7. 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!

    8. 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
