Modern Era (4Gen+) Aircraft

I really like the Su-37 model, but I always did not like its coloring. When I studied the history of the Su-27 series, I found out that the Su-37 and Su-27M did not differ in appearance. The fuselage, wings and tail are the same for them. Different only in engines. I decided to repaint this model in the colors of Su-27M, so it was more pleasant to kill this plane.
============
Installation:
Copy the files to the appropriate locations in your mod folder as usual. Be sure to overwrite the decals folder. It is very important! There is a fix for the  UV grid of the original model, cause of which the second wing had a reflection of the first that the aircraft was disfiguring.
It is better to overwrite weapons folder. I ve made some small changes (fixed the years of using) in inies in some of them.
============
I tried to make the skins as accurate as possible. But the skin T-10M-1 is not very accurate from below because of the limitations of the model. If you want to correct this, do not stop yourself. Fix, redraw, repack, share, I will be happy with your corrections of my skins.
NEW SKINS:
T-10M-1 1988
T-10M-3 BN 703 1992
T-10M-9 BN 709 1993
Aubergine (Modern Russian What If Skin)
Su-27M BN 88 Serial 2000
Su-27M BN 710 Serial 1993
Su-27M BN 710 Serial 1993 Shabby
Su-27M Russian Knights
OLD SKIN
Su-37 Terminator (original model's fix of wing)

F-16A IIAF/IRIAF Pak


 
 

-- For FULL-4 Merged SF2 (Prefered) and/or SF2:I =ONLY!!!= --


 
This package is an "Almost If..." aircraft, representing F-16A Falcons, had they actually been delivered to the Imperial Iranian Air Force, as orderd during the Shah's reign.
 
It contains 2 skins (actualy the same skin used twice), created from a partial template of the Stock SF2:I F-16A Netz, and decals to replicate the speculative IIAF and Islamic Republic's AF F-16s.
 
You =MUST= have a Full-4 Merged SF2 install, WITH SF2:I (or better yet -a stand along Iran/Iraq mods folder, built FROM a Full-4 Merged exe), otherwise you will NOT be able to access the needed aircraft lod and cockpit files.
 
By making use of the new 'StartDate=' feature in the textureset inis, the aircraft's marking to switch from IIAF to IRIAF, based on the 1979 Islamic Revolution in Iran.
 
The aircraft makes use of all stock, In-Game items for weapons, droptanks and whatnots, simplifying installation and reducing package size. (Of course, you still need the Full-4 Merged Install and/or SF2:I or an Iran/Iraq stand-alone, built from the aforementioned Full4 Merged. Getting the point, yet??)
 
As always, READ the enclosed readme for full, detailed instructions. This package has been broken down into the various folders that SF2 needs, to make it a LOT easier to install. An abreviated "Notes and Other Nonsense" section makes for interesting reading, too.
 
Good Hunting!

(yes, this was yet another nearly completed mod I had sitting on my HD ... now, in you'alls hot little hands!)

This is a simple conversion of the F-16I SUFA for SF2 ISRAEL only. A cockpit is not included, it uses the stock F-16A Netz pit, if you have the know-how to add another pit, go for it. It's converted for SF2 Israel though, and not tested elsewhere. It's a drag and drop installation; see the readme for details.
 
Spiff

This package presents the Su-30M2, MK2, MKK modifications produced on KnAAZ Avia Plant.
Su-30 are produced at two different factories. Aircraft are distinguished by avionics, seams, camouflage and appearance. On "IRKUT" (Irkutsk Aviation Plant) they rebuild old Su-27 UB\PU to Su-30KN and KM (both without canards) and build new Su-30SM with canards. In this pack there are Su-30s produced at KnAAZ aircraft plant based in Komsomolsk on Amur  (all without canards).
 
This is the conversion of the old SF1 model in SF2 + new skins
 
============
Installation:
Extract file "Su-30_by_KnAAZ_Avia_Plant_(Part_II).7z" at any temp directory you want.
Move the files to the appropriate locations in your mod folder as usual.
DO NOT FORGET about the DECALS folder! It is very important! There are some fixes for the UV grid of the original model. Without it some part of camouflages be distorted cuz of model's UV issue.
 
============
 
NEW SKINS:
Sukhoy Anniversary Skin
Summer 2011 standard Russia camouflage
Vietnam Green - it is old my skin moved to correct pack
Vietnam Blue
China Gray 2007
First Prototype skin

Macchi MB 339A Version 2.0 for Strike Fighter 2 by ID(io)T Team
 
Development and operational history
 
Aermacchi went on to perform an effective "facelift" on the MB-326 to create the "MB-339", a modernized derivative. The first of two "MB-339X" prototypes performed its initial flight on 12 August 1976, with the second following on 20 May 1977. The first of 107 production "MB-339A" trainers for the AMI performed its initial flight on 20 July 1978, with the type entering service in 1979.
The MB-339 retained substantial commonality with the MB-326, differing mainly in a new forward fuselage with a raised cockpit, and twin ventral fins plus a taller tailfin to compensate for the loss in yaw stability due to the new forward fuselage. The MB-339 also featured updated systems, particularly rocket-boosted SICAMB / Martin Baker Mark 1T-10F ejection seats with "zero zero" (zero speed zero altitude) capability. However, the MB-339 retained the Viper 632-43 engine; Aermacchi had seriously considered replacing it with a more modern and fuel-economical engine, but the Viper was cheap, reliable, and had good performance. The engine was license-built by Piaggio. The MB-339 retained the six stores pylons of the MB-326G. It did not have built-in cannon, but cannon pods, dumb bombs, and rocket launchers were qualified as stores for the light attack role.The MB-339 has been export in Argentina where ten "MB-339AA" were obtained by the Argentine Navy (ARA), with the type operating against the British during the Falklands War in 1982. Other MB-339A users included Dubai (seven), Ghana (four), Malaysia (thirteen MB-339AM), Nigeria (twelve MB-339AN), and Peru (sixteen MB-339AP).
 
 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
The War Trial
Lt Guillermo Owen Crippa, a young Argentine Fleet Air Arm pilot, was tasked as No 2 of an armed patrol from Stanley airfield shortly after sun-up. The other Aermacchi jet trainer became unserviceable, so Crippa launched on his own. Near Jersey Point he spotted a Royal Navy Lynx helicopter, but as he pulled up to dive on it, he also sighted the ‘enemy’ invasion force anchored in San Carlos Water. Crippa broke off, reported his discovery of the British to his controller in Stanley – and then announced his intention to attack.
At low level and high speed he emerged from the radar shadow of Fanning Head, and fired all his podded Zuni rockets at HMS ARGONAUT. Crippa then engaged a RFA stores ship with his 30mm DEFA cannon, and before exiting the combat zone, took notes on the number and types of ship sheltering in San Carlos Water. He was subsequently awarded Argentina’s highest decoration for valour in combat. The British were also given a first taste of the courage and determination that characterizes Argentine military aviators.

T-45 "Goshawk" Skins/Decals and Ini Update Pak


 

-- For SF2, Any & All --


 
The package is a slight revamping of RussoUK's T-45A "Goshawk" USN trainer. This complete full aircraft package incudes all new decals, a slightly 'noised' version of the skin, and some minor ini tweeks for SF2. The cockpit has been replaced by using the stock A-4B, as these don't have a radar. However, the radar-ranging gunsight and an audio-only RWR have been added. New decals for VT-1 have been created, as have BuNum tags.
 
Other ini edits switch the canopy to a manual animation key (use Shift/0 to open close), and a somewhat fancifull loadout ini, with loadouts for the STRIKE, RECON, CAS & ARMED_RECON profiles. (see Notes below for comments). Self-defense Sidewinders are carried on all mission profiles.
The Aden gunpod has been changed to allow for USN usage, and a substitute 100 gallon drop tank has been added. Both weapons are included; all other weapons fits are stock, with the exception of the CBU-59, so you'll need Gunny's Ordanance Shop for that.
 
As always, =READ= the enclosed readme for full, detailed instructions. This package has been broken down into the various folders that SF2 needs, to make it a LOT easier to install.
 
Happy Landings!

AV-8B Harrier II Plus /  Radar
This is my humble rework of old AV-8B.
Basic modding skills are required to run this mod.  (copy/paste, mod folder structure etc.) A fake pilot is needed to run this mod. 
It is designed for and works only in SF2 series.
 
Around 3 years ago - January 2016 -  KillerBee approach me with the possibility of updating bobrock's harrier,  and preparing  Night Attack version.  After some time, we had file ready for upload. Small changes here and there corrected a few things. And great skins by Killerbee.
And then KillerBee disappeared from CA forum. Honestly, up to now, I have no contact with him. last - 4th May 2016. 
So harrier stayed on drive waiting for his comeback. But .... I couldn't resist...And iI started to mod this again. Since I had no KB skin templates I had to do all new skins...and more.
So now I am here...My standard AV-8B Harrier is already available for download same as Night Attack model. Both models recently updated,
New cockpit and a whole set of new skins and decals on whole remodeled 'old' Harrier. - there is no single part of an original model that hasn't be touched/remodeled etc.
First of all...If you want to count rivets...Do not. 
Many things could be done other way....but I did it my way. So you have to bear with it.
All skins are in 4096x4096 format. So you can easily resize down.  Generally, it is just a few skins.  If you have problems running this in game. Resize skins to lower resolutions
Skins and decals are made to match most of the skins from Night Attack model pack. All VMA squadrons are equipped with a mix of both NA and radar model.
Decals are based on my and KillerBee research. All serials are correct for the Night Attack version of Harrier II. Not always (but mostly) correct for a unit/year of service etc. But as always aircraft are rotating between units so its hard to track them down really.
Big Thanks to Ravenclaw - He send me file with new ALQ-164 pod. Now it is part of the upload. 
For some reason, I have added weapons that are present in Loadout.ini. 
AIM-120 is specific for AV-8B via specific station code. To have proper year of apearance.
 
Animations:
1= canopy open - close
4= refueling probe - beware of a speed limit
3= night vision mode - not really helping but it is there - inside and outside animation.
************************************************************************************
You can exlplore ini files for some additional features like in cockpit "FLIR" feed on HUD .
AAQ-28 can be loaded only on station number 5 and centerline - in real - centerline come to use later and some units (VMAT) also moded wiring for use on other pylons. Nut in this mod only station 5 and 4 can carry AAQ-28.
AIM-120 can be loaded only on stations 2 and 6.
There are two stations for Intrepid Tiger II pod. In future.
ECM also activates RWR on digital display indicator - even if ECM pod is not loaded.
If you have my AV-8B Harrier already  - some files are same so simply overwrite. 
for proper sound work you should add these lines into soundlist.ini
 
SoundFileXXX=USMComm_1
SoundFileXXX=Equalizer
[Equalizer]
Priority=NORMAL
Looped=TRUE
NumBuffers=2
3DSound=TRUE

Spectre8750

This is F-14A Tomcat as after 1979 in Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force.
This is based on Thirdwire DLC 027. So if you dont have this pack you can't use this mod.
 
Whats in.
This is basicly the skin and decals set For F-14A_Iran from DLC027.
Skin is based on pappychksix templates
 
All decals are made by me and set to randomization=TRUE.
Ive put only 72 serial numbers into 3 squadrons that operated F-14A in 79-80.
Al numbers are historicaly correct, but only few are proper for specific unit.
During Iran-Iraq war lot aircrafts were transfered from unit to unit or temporary written off so its hard to track proper aircraft placement in units.
few aircrafts were also serving in testing units. So total aircrafts in service in 1979 was probably around 70.
 
No weapons / pilots added. It will work with latest ravenclaw weapons for sure.
 
There is optional folder with INI files. Its is mix of inis based on TMF F-14 pack.
And also pit is from TMF pack.
So all credit to them for their work.

Mirage 2000-5 BETA For SF2
 
This is a Mod of Erwin_hans Taiwanese Mirage 2000-5.
 
Credits:

3D Model by aleks
 
Original Flight Model by IAFmars and YEYEYE and Erwin_hans
 
French Skin by ADM17

JAS-39C Gripen Cockpit by Gux
 
Avionics by Moonjumper and Jat
 
Martin Baker Mk10 Ejection Seat by AleDucat

Installation:
--------------------------------------------------
Simply extract the contents of the Mirage 2000-5 folder into your Mods\StrikeFighters2 folder.
 
Shift 1 will open and close the canopy.
 
 
This model uses the Gux's JAS-39C Gripen cockpit and avionics. The cross bar in the Gripen canopy has beem removed to provide a fully transparent canopy. Every effort has been made remove as much of the Beta aspect as possible, but some small issues still remain. The weapon positions on the pylons have been adjusted, the weapon stations have been tweaked to avoid model overlaps, and the weapon loadout has been changed to more closely reflect French and Greek Mirage 2000-E weapons capabilities.
The lighting positions and wheel rolling radius have been corrected. The leading edge slats are functional, and the flight model has been tweaked pretty extensively. A new Hangar Screen, Loading Screen and Loadout image are included.
 
TORNO's skins make this a very sexy beast. The FM is pretty sporty, and the plane flies and fights nicely. The real Mirage 2000-5 is a very competent multi-purpose fighter bomber, and this model does a pretty good job reflecting that heritage.
Take a look at the Mirage 2000 History.txt file for more detail on the Mirage 2000.
 
Enjoy, and good flying.

This is an update for the JAS39C for SF2 available here at CombatACE.
 
You will need both the ‘JAS-39C Gripen For SF2 series’ http://combatace.com...for-sf2-series/
 
and the “Reworked and fixed JAS-39C Gripen skins For SF2 Series.” http://combatace.com...for-sf2-series/
 
Simple put my updated files in the appropriate place and let them override.
 
This update includes:
 
-Corrected Flare/Chaff dispenser locations and quantities.
-Flare and Chaff dispensers added to the skins of all Gripen operators.
-Updated threat library for the RWR
-Weapon pylons updated to reflect ability to carry latest weapons as well as the GBU-16 on outboard stations and Taurus KEPD-350 Stand off Missile on the inboard stations.
-Modification to RBS 15 missile to make it effective as an anti-ship weapon.
-Taurus KEPD-350 Stand Off Missile included. (3d model is not entirely accurate but all data.ini performance figures are.)
 
Thanks to everyone who has worked on the previous Gripens.
 
Cheers,
 
Dan

An upgraded version of Bobrock and Dave's Harrier GR7 for SF2, to commemorate Joint Force Harrier and the fleet of GR9 aircraft, sadly withdrawn from UK service and sold to the US for spare parts.
 
It includes an ugraded weapons capability, upgraded avionic systems and re-painted aircraft and cockpit to resemble (as close as possible) the real Harrier GR9 and the Joint Force Harrier Squadrons and paint schemes (Hi-res skin templates are also in the folder).
 
Installation Instructions:
 
Download and install Bobrocks Harrier GR7; this adds all the necessary components for the GR9 to work.
 
Unzip and copy and paste the folders in the 'Joint Force Harrier GR9' folder into your mods folder overwriting where necessary.
 
Add the Squadrons listed in the 'Add To SQUADRONLIST.txt' file to the squadronlist.ini in your 'pilotdata folder'.
 
You also need to have following weapons installed:
 
Maverick
Brimstone (& Brimstone3pack)
Tiald included with Bobrocks Harrier GR7
RAF Weapons Pack/Modern RAF Smart bombs.
 
Feel free to modify the HarrierGr9_Loadout.ini and the 'StationGroupID' in the HarrierGr9_DATA.ini to change the selectable weapon stations in the loadout screen and default weapon types.
 
Thanks go to:
 
Bobrock & Dave for the original Harrier GR7
AleDucat for the ejection seat (Martin-Baker Mk.12 for the Harrier GR9 is a repaint of his Martin-Baker Mk.10L).
All those who posted in the Combatace forum where I learned so much.
 
This is my first uploaded project; tested and works in my merged SF2 install, the Hi-res skins work best with graphics detail option set to 'unlimited'.
 
Enjoy.

History
 
Since the early nineties, the Italian Air Force has eagerly been seeking a replacement for its vintage Aeritalia F-104S Starfighters. Its intended replacement is the Eurofighter Typhoon. Since this program has been running behind schedule for a few years, the Italian air force needed a stop-gap solution. Because the AMI possesses a vast number of Tornado IDS planes, they decided to lease 24 Tornado ADV fighters from the RAF for a 10-year period. This lease ended in 2003 so a replacement was sought. At first the AMI opted to extend the lease period with another 10 years. This proved to be too expensive, so the Italian government turned to the US. The requirement was for a fighter that could perform the air defense mission for 5 to 10 years, until the arrival of the Typhoon.
 
Inventory
 
Peace Caesar
 
On March 15th, 2001 the Italian government signed an LoA for a 5-year lease (with an option on another 5 years) of 34 F-16s and four spare airframes, in a deal worth up to $777 million over a 10-year period. The aircraft were delivered between July 2003 and November 2004. In total, 30 F-16A ADFs as well as 1 F-16B ADF and 3 F-16B block 5 & 10's will be delivered. Four more planes will be provided for use as spare parts.
 
Before delivery to Italy, the aircraft are brought out of storage at Davis-Monthan AFB, Ariz. and transfered to the Ogden ALC at Hill AFB, Utah, where they undergo 220 days of refurbishment and upgrades.
 
The Falcons are given a complete refurbishment, which complied with all technical compliance-technical orders that have changed since the aircraft was placed in stasis in Arizona. The depot teams at Hill AFB did structural modifications including Falcon-Up, which replaces particular bulkheads and the structural life improvement program, which strengthens holes around the fuel cell panels and wheel wells by compressing the molecules with 30,000 pounds of pressure. The wings were removed and the bulkhead furthest aft that holds the vertical wing was replaced. The landing gear was refurbished and its bulkhead was also replaced.
 
The flight controls actuators are replaced with new actuators. In addition the computers and instruments that provide the Falcon its technological edge are removed, sent to the appropriate facilities to be tested then repaired if necessary. All equipment that is a time change item and that has less than a full year's worth of service left is changed.
 
Approximately 100 Italian Air Force maintenance officers, instructors and technicians are receiving F-16 maintenance training at Lockheed Martin facilities in Fort Worth, Texas.
 
End of service
 
On May 23rd, 2012 a disbanding ceremony was held at Trapani-Birgi AFB to mark the disbandment of the resident 18 Gruppo, which was the sole surviving F-16 squadron within the AMI. This marked to end of the service life of the F-16 within the Italian Air Force. This means the AMI is the first air force to fly with the F-16 that phases out the type.
 
Modifications & Armament
 
The planes provided to Italy have a standard ADF configuration. All aircraft receive the uprated Pratt & Whitney F100-220E engine and undergo the Falcon-Up structural enhancement program. It is confirmed that a number of weapon systems will be released to the AMI to be used in conjunction with the F-16s, including the AIM-120 AMRAAM missile,

145th SQ (also added for fun)
 
311th TFTS (Squadron at Luke AF to train the pilots, very short live)
 
425th FS (Current squadron at Luke AF to train the RSAF pilots, added for fun)

The files above represented the F-16AM Blk20 for the ROCAF, F-16A Blk15 OCU for the RSAF, F-16A_ADF for the RTAF, and F-16A Blk15OCU for the TNI-AU.
 
Due to the "fake pilot" mode, you will see the IFF blade on all Blk15 OCU by RSAF and TNI-AU when there shouldn't be... But who cares, it looks good :)
 
As always, great care is taken to insure proper skin, decal-type/size/position and color when possible.
 
Any modification that is not fully represented to the actual aircraft is made to improve the looks of the skin rather then to downgrade the quality of the actual aircraft skin and decals, or simply it is beyond my ability.
 
I DID NOT upload the pilot, effects, and weapons because of three things:
 
1. If you have been with the commuty for a long time, I assume you have it all and will modify it to your own liking.
2. If you are new to the community, then you have a lot to read and upload to get the full impact of the wonderful work that many have contributed.
3. I am too lazy to do it for you...

Removed Countermeasures from top wing,as pics Ive seen dont have it...its optional if you use the new LOD.
 
also added wingfold details for outer wing and main wing.(as you see its missing in above pic)
 
also moved pilot and seat a bit...so if you want just those co-ords copy n paste required bits of the data,ini.

AV-8B Harrier II Night Attack. 
This is my humble rework of old AV-8B.
Basic modding skills are required to run this mod.  (copy/paste, mod folder structure etc.) A fake pilot is needed to run this mod. 
It is designed for and works only in SF2 series.
 
Around 2 years ago - January 2016 -  KillerBee approach me with the possibility of updating bobrock's harrier,  and preparing  Night Attack version.  After some time, we had file ready for upload. Small changes here and there corrected a few things. And great skins by Killerbee.
And then KillerBee disappeared from CA forum. Honestly, up to now, I have no contact with him. last - 4th May 2016. 
So harrier stayed on drive waiting for his comeback. But .... I couldn't resist...And iI started to mod this again. Since I had no KB skin templates I had to do all new skins...and more.
So now I am here...My standard AV-8B Harrier is already available for download and now its Night Attack model.
New cockpit and a whole set of new skins and decals on whole remodeled 'old' Harrier. - there is no single part of an original model that hasn't be touched/remodeled etc.
First of all...If you want to count rivets...Do not. 
Many things could be done other way....but I did it my way. So you have to bear with it.
All skins are in 4096x4096 format. So you can easily resize down.  Generally, it is just a few skins.  If you have problems running this in game. Resize skins to lower resolutions. Skins match VMA squadrons from early AV-8B and late AV-8B radar version. 
Decals are based on my and KillerBee research. All serials are correct for the Night Attack version of Harrier II. Not always (but mostly) correct for a unit/year of service etc. But as always aircraft are rotating between units so its hard to track them down really.
Big Thanks to Ravenclaw - He send me file with new ALQ-164 pod. Now it is part of the upload. 
For some reason, I have added weapons that are present in Loadout.ini. 
Animations:
1= canopy open - close
4= refueling probe - beware of a speed limit
3= night vision mode - not really helping but it is there - inside and outside animation.
************************************************************************************
You can exlplore ini files for some additional features like in cockpit "FLIR" feed on HUD .
AAQ-28 can be loaded only on station number 5 and centerline - in real - centerline come to use later and some units (VMAT) also moded wiring for use on other pylons. But in this mod only station 5 and 4 can carry AAQ-28.
There are two stations prepared for Intrepid Tiger II pod. In future. 
ECM also activates RWR on digital display indicator - even if ECM pod is not loaded.
If you have my AV-8B Harrier already  - some files are same so simply overwrite. I think I did not put equalizer sound file now. It is same as in previous day Harrier.
for proper sound work you should add these lines into soundlist.ini
SoundFilexxx=xxxx

Atlas Cheetah D
 
The Cheetah C was the ultimate development of the Cheetah series, and was the only fighter aircraft in service with the SAAF until replaced by the Saab JAS 39 Gripen in 2008. Many of the features of the Cheetah aircraft are still classified, and the SAAF is unwilling to reveal too many details. What is known is that in addition to the upgrades described above, the Cheetah C incorporates a more sophisticated avionics and navigation suite and a new pulse-doppler multi-mode radar (ELTA), both of which are regarded as being better than the systems fitted to Block 50 F-16s[citation needed], and one of the most advanced EW systems fitted to a fighter aircraft. The aircraft is also fitted with a data link, though the capabilities of this system are unknown, and it received updated versions of the helmet-mounted sight, HUD and improved HOTAS controls.
Other improvements include the fitting of a single-piece wrap-around windshield with an anti-radiation coating in place of the old three-piece version, a new in-flight refuelling probe with less external piping, new undercarriage and suspension, the deletion of the wing fences, an upgraded version of the Atar 9K50 and a new nose to incorporate the more sophisticated electronics and radar.
Like the Cheetah D, the Cheetah C is capable of delivering precision-guided munitions (PGMs), ranging from laser-guided bombs (LGBs), to GPS-guided weapons and TV-guided bombs. It also has the capability of using stand-off air-to-ground weapons such as the MUPSOW and TORGOS. In addition, it is able to carry a raft of air-to-air weapons, and the SAAF currently equips its aircraft with the V4 R-Darter, a beyond-visual-range (BVR) radar-guided missile, and the U-Darter, a highly capable short-range infrared (IR)-guided missile.
A measure of the capabilities of the Cheetah C is the result of an air-combat maneuvering (ACM) exercise between the Cheetah Cs of 2 Squadron and F-15E Strike Eagles of the 494th Fighter Squadron, United States Air Force at RAF Lakenheath, after which the score tallies for each side were almost exactly equal.
 
Included 3 models:
 
-Cheetah D Early
-Cheetah D Late
-Cheetah D FAE (ecuator)
