      Well here is a better explanation of my breakdown logic.
       
      B-52G_59 and the B-52H_61: The years they came into service and were all nuke and Houndog carriers. So for you SAC fans this is the cold warrior at its best.
       
      B-52G_72: This version went to Vietnam for Linebacker with the ability to carry only 27 bombs and very inferior ECM.
       
      B-52H_75: While the G was being used for a conventional role, the H were still all nuke aircraft. (it could carry 27 iron bombs if needed) This one represents the year it got the EVS, new ECM and its carries gravity nukes and SRAM's.
       
      B-52G_77: Again with the H is received the upgraded ECM, EVS and kept its ability to carry iron in the bay and is set up for a its nuclear missions as well.
       
      B-52H_88: While the G was getting more of the conventional role, in 1988 the H soldiered on being an all nuke bomber. In this year we see it in its new paint and carrying an all AGM-86B ALCM loadouts.
       
      B-52G_82: This is the year the G went operational with the AGM-86B ALCM
       
      B-52H_93: New paint, upgraded ECM and no gun. This one also had the ability to fire the AGM-142 Have Nap.
      Note: In the loadout screen it will say it is empty but the black dots next to it will be full. That means they are loaded but there is some glitch in the sim preventing it from showing up in the loadout screen because of the data link pod. It does work though once you are in the sim.
       
      B-52G_89: Here is then it picked up a serious conventional mission with the ability to carry iron on the wing pylons as well. This one also received the new paint scheme and made carpet bombing famous during Desert Storm.
       
      B-52H_03: The current version with upgraded ECM, plus the ability to carry the LITENING pod, all sorts of guided weapons from JDAM's, to LGB's, to JSOW's. Also with the Combat Track II moving map display in the cockpit.
       

      Thank you each and everyone of you guys for your help and guidance.

    3. F-4D 1971 from the 48th TFW, RAF Lakenheath By USAFMTL
       
      Skins and Decals: Sundowner, Spinners (thanks for the decals and skins fellas)
      Technical advisor: Fubar512
      Historical Advisor: mppd
      Weapons, from the SF2 weps pack via 331killerbee, via wpnssgt.....via alot of people.
       
      This started out as a project 3 years ago and finally got around to getting it done. This mod has all 70 aircraft with real tail codes of the Liberty Wing. For the fun factor each squadron has all 70 decals assigned so you don't ever run out. The swapped fighters between squadrons so much they could all of been in each one at one time or another. Who knows.
       
      This will create a whole new aircraft depicting the F-4D the Liberty Wing flew from late 1971 to 1977. So if you want to use it in a campaign those are the years you will be able to fly it before you have to use the F-111F. This comes with a custom strike loadout.

    8. Swiss Mirage III Pack
       
      Install - Need Update July 2012, DLC Mirage IIIO
       
      In 1961, Switzerland bought a single Mirage IIIC from France. This Mirage IIIC was used as development aircraft. The Swiss Mirages were built in Switzerland by F+W Emmen (today RUAG ) (the federal government aircraft factory in Emmen) as the Mirage IIIS. Australia too, bought, one French-made in preparation for licensed production. Cost overruns during the Swiss production led to the so-called "Mirage affair". In all, 36 Mirage IIIS interceptors were built with strengthened wings, airframe, and undercarriage. The Swiss Air Force required performance comparable to those of carrier based planes; the airframes were reinforced so the aircraft could be moved by lifting them over other aircraft with a crane, as in the Aircraft cavern in the mountains that Swiss Air Force uses as bunkers, offer very little space to maneuver parked aircraft. Also, the strengthened frames allowed for JATO assisted takeoffs. The main differences to the standard Mirage III were as follows:
      New wiring of avionics with U.S. electronics
      Changed cockpit design with gray instead of black panels
      New U.S. radar, TARAN-18 from Hughes
      Use of HM-55S "Falcon" (Swiss designation of the from SAAB in Licence built Robot 27 (Rb27) which is similar to the Hughes AIM-26 "Falcon")
      Radar warning receiver (RWR) on both wingtips and on the back of the rudder
      Strengthened structure for use of JATO-Rockets
      Retractable nosecone and lengthened nosewhlle leg for storing in underground air base
      Four lifting points for moving aircraft in underground caverns with a crane
      Bay at the fin with a SEPR rocket engine to double the velocity for short time or climb to 20 000 m (60 000 ft)
      US TRACOR AN/ALE-40 chaff/flare dispenser at the back under the end of the engine (fitted with the upgrade 1988)
      Canards designed and produced by RUAG Aerospace(fitted with the upgrade 1988)
      New Martin-Baker ejection-seat (fitted with the upgrade 1988)
      The Swiss Mirages are equipped with RWS, chaff & flare dispensers. Avionics differed as well, with the most prominent difference being that the Thomson-CSF Cyrano II radar was replaced by Hughes TARAN-18 system, giving the Mirage IIIS compatibility with the Hughes AIM-4 Falcon AAM. Also the Mirage IIIS had the wiring to carry a Swiss-built nuclear bomb or French nuclear bomb. The Swiss nuclear bomb was stopped in the preproduction stage and Switzerland did not purchase the French-made bomb. The Mirage IIIS had an integral fuel tank under the aft belly; this fuel tank could be removed and replaced with an adapter of the same shape. This adapter housed a SEPR rocket engine with its liquid fuel tanks. With the SEPR rocket, the Mirage IIIS easily reached altitudes of 20,000 m. The rocket fuel was very hazardous and highly toxic, so the SEPR rocket was not used very often. The Mirage IIIRS could also carry a photo-reconnaissance centerline pod and an integral fuel tank under the aft belly; this carried a smaller fuel load but allowed a back looking film camera to be added. In the early 1990s, the 30 surviving Swiss Mirage IIIS interceptors were put through an upgrade program, which included fitting them with fixed canards and updated avionics. The Mirage IIIS were phased out of service in 1999. The remaining Mirage IIIRS, BS and DS were taken out of
