    1. New canopy structure for the F-35A, F-35B and F-35C v1.1.0

      Important ! At first I would like to thank GKABS who was so kind to create 
      this FakePilot element. 

      Indeed, this mod uses the FakePilot method.

      This is mainly an update for the F-35A/B/C Lightning II V 2.5 for SF2 by 
      FastCargo : 
      https://combatace.com/files/file/9051-f-35abc-lightning-ii-v-25-for-sf2/

      Before using this mod you must install the F-35s.
      The mod contains:
      - the F-35 data.ini files for each 3 versions of the Lightning II fighter.
      - The GKABS mod
      - The FakePilot mod
      - Update by Paulopanz (see NOTAM) 

      NOTAM for v1.1.0 : 
      - the opening canopy animation of the F-35B is deleted 
      and the position of the new structure is updated with new texture.
      - by Paulo :
      - F-35A taxing dancing fixed [Baffmeister's tricks rule ...]
      - F-35B taxing dancing fixed [a better take off like Seaharrier or Yak-36 should nedeed]
      - F-35C taxing dancing fixed; medium carrier set [no LPD LPH etc usage like F-35B]; wingfold and canopy opened on deck [the addon parts are on pilot and not seat entries]

      In order to install it you must put the objects folder into your SF2 
      directory.

      Best regards
      Coupi

    2. Texas Falcons:
       F-16s over the Lone Star State 1990-1999
      This mod represents the various models of F-16 that were in service in the Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve during the 1990s. These units include the
      - 457th Fighter Squadron (Air Force Reserve) at Fort Worth
      - 704th Fighter Squadron (Air Force Reserve) at Bergstrom AFB
      - 111th Fighter Squadron (Texas ANG) at Ellington ANGB
      - 182d  Fighter Squadron (Texas ANG) at Lackland AFB
      These units have utilized a range of F-16 models over the years and a wider range of missions. The 704th deactivated in 1996, and the 111th converted to MQ-1s in 2009. But the 457th and 182d are still going strong as Viper operators today
      Included
      Team Viper F-16C Blocks 25, 30, 32
      Modified Team Viper F-16A/B Block OCU, F-16D Block 30
      new F-16A/B Block 15 ADF, F-16D Blocks 25 and 30
      various period specific weapons and pilots
      various ini edits to match the era
      new hangar and loading screens
      NOTE: The D models have very few serial numbers to each unit. most units only had one or two family models. the best use for these is to add on as a member of a flight of single seaters. The load outs are the same so you will be able to load teh same weapons.
      Other Note: If there is not a two seater assigned to a unit, there will not be a D model skin for that unit. I have checked about a dozen times to be sure I wasnt missing something

    3. Charlie Vipers on Guard
                   Part 1: Block 25s in the 90s
      This mod is the first of three to represent the various versions of the F-16C/D in US Air National Guard service during the 1990s. It was a busy time with potential conflict in Korea and active operations ongoing over Iraq and the Balkans. This mod aims to show the units as they were at that time. Included is a new F-16D Block 25 from ravenclaw_007 to cover the two seaters in each unit that had them.

      Included
      Team Viper F-16C Block 25 with historical ANG skins
      new F-16D Block 25
      various period specific weapons and pilots
      various ini edits to match the era
      new hangar and loading screens
      NOTE: The D models have very few serial numbers to each unit. most units only had one or two family models. the best use for these is to add on as a member of a flight of single seaters rather than as a flight of their own.
      The load outs are the same so you will be able to load the same weapons.
      ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
      LOADING SCREEN NOTE: I will be including various loading screens with the diferent packs available. In the F-16C_B25.iniyou will find these lines
              LoadingScreen=F-16C_Loading_119.jpg
              //LoadingScreen=F-16C_Loading_111.jpg
      installing this mod will have default loading screen with the New Jersey ANG aircraft. if you already had a different version and prefer that one, simply remove the "//" from the one you want and add to the one without.

    4. Vipers Over Bosnia
          Part 1: USAFE F-16C/Ds During Operation Deny Flight
      In April 1993, NATO had documented over 500 unauthorized military flights over Bosnian airspace since the United Nations passed Resolution 781 that prohibited those flights. The Umited Nations then passed Resolution 816 that extended the flight ban to all fixed and rotary wing in the country and authorized memeber states to use all measures need to comply.
      On 12 April 1993, NATO began Operation Deny Flight, combat air patrols to enforce the no fly zone over Bosnia Herzogovina. In June 1993, Resolution 836 allowed NATO to also provide close air support to UNPROFOR on request (This was not often used because requests had to go to the UN in New York, then to NATO then back to the pilots and ground forces involved). As a result, the typical loadout was of air to air missiles as well as a pair of bombs and jaming pod.
      The closest American air base to the conflict zone was Aviano AB in Italy. Many US Fighter units forward deployed there at the beginning, including elements of the 86th Fighter Wing (512th and 526th Fighter Squadrons) which was transitioning from the F-16C Block 30 to the F-16C Block 40. This unit was in the middle of that transition on 28 Feb 1994 when elements of the 526th FS engaged 6 Serbian J-21 jets with the USAF claiming 4 downed (the Serbs claim 5 were lost).
      Later in 1994, the 86th Wing ceased fighter operations and the two squadrons were moved to Aviano to become part of the 31st Fighter Wing (510th FS and 555th FS). These squadrons continued operations over Bosnia through the shoot down incident on 2 Jun 1995 and the air strikes conducted as part of Operation Deliberate Force.
      With the adopting of the Dayton Peace Accords, Deny Flight was determined to no longer be necessary and terminated on 15 December 1995.
      This mod represents the four USAFE main F-16 squadrons that took part, the 512th FS Dragons, 526th FS Knights, 510th FS Buzzards, and 555th FS Triple Nickel. It also covers the two different blocks of F-16 flown at the time (30 and 40)
       
      Included
      F-16C Block 30 and 40, F-16D Block 40
      new F-16D Block 40
      various period specific weapons and pilots
      various ini edits to match the era
      new hangar and loading screens
      NOTE: The D models have very few serial numbers to each unit. most units only had one or two family models. The best use for these is to add on as a member of a flight of single seaters. The load outs are the same so you will be able to load the same weapons.

    5. Canadian 401 Tactical Fighter Group F-35 Lightning II Mod 
      This mod requires Strike Fighters 2 and a working installation of
      the Operation Darius Mod available at the Combat Ace website:
      Strike Fighters 2
      https://www.thirdwire.com
      Combat Ace
      https://www.combatace.com
      Direct Link to Operation Darius
      https://combatace.com/forums/topic/74627-operation-darius-final-part-1-of-4/

      What Is It?
      This is a mod for Strike Fighters 2 and Operation Darius that adds the
      Canadian 401 Tactical Fighter Group to the squadron choices when flying
      the Operation Darius campaign. The original Operation Darius was limited
      to the CF18 as the Canadian Forces multi-role fighter.
      This mod adds the recently acquired F-35 Lightning II to Single Missions and
      the Operation Darius Campaign for Canadian Forces. Canada, having recently
      procured a number of F-35 jets for their fleet are replacing the aging CF18s
      with the stealth and tactically aware F-35A Lightning II.
      If you're a fan of this sim and the Lockheed-Martin jet, then this is your
      chance to try it if you'd prefer to play as the Canadians.

      What's Included?
      I've included textures with proper Canadian markings, including the official
      401 Tactical Fighter Group's own patch on the tail fins. These are simply 
      modded textures of one of the other squadrons texture packs, which were
      crafted by the Operation Darius team. 
      I simply used their work and composited the 401 Patch and the appropriate
      Canadian insignias on the wings, tail and fuselage. I've included the
      original Photoshop layered files in case you want to alter the positioning
      of the "Canadian" elements on the textures.

      Installation:
      Simply copy the two folders: Campaigns and Objects to your Operation Darius
      mod directory which is located at:
      WinXP or earlier:
      .\Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2\[OpDarius]
       
      Vista/Win7/Win8/Win8.1/Win10/Win11
      .\Users\<username>\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2\[OpDarius]

      where [OpDarius] is the name of the folder where you chose to install Operation Darius.
      When you do, it should asked if you want to a bunch of files replaces, just replace all and have done with it and once they're done copying, you should be ready to go.

      Thank you to the Combat Ace website, Thirdwire and to the Operation Darius team for making such a great
      addon for an already awesome jet simulator/trainer. Thank you to the Government of Canada for
      making the decision to upgrade our aging fleet of DEW line tasked multi-role fighters with the
      now mature F-35A, and of course Lockheed-Martin for such an awesome aircraft.
      Special thanks to the Canadian 401 Tactical Fighter Group.

    6. Banidos TA 50 (SU-57)

      This is a model of the prototype of the TA 50 (SU 57) created by AleDucat, the model is beta, this means that it has not been tested enough, it may have missing parts and some inconveniences, (none affects anything in the simulator)
      the installation method is the standard one, copy the contents of each folder into the corresponding folders in your simulator installation.
      The flight model is super unstable, this means that you can perform cobra, super cobra and rotate like a juggler's baton.
      if you press the vectoring key (as used on helicopters and harriers) the model will deploy the refueling zone and become more stable.
      For animation reasons, the cockpit is unfolded with the key to unfold the mooring hook.
       The center bays deploy automatically when firing a radar guidance missile.
      In order to engage and fire infrared missiles housed in the wing root wells, you must open them with the key that corresponds to the openings of common wells.
      the model is the prototype, remove the pitot t antennas that the working model does not bring from the ini files.
      I hope you enjoy.
      This folder contains a 3d model of the SU-57, a 3d model of the cockpit, a 3d model of the pilot's seat and optronic seeker, 3 skins with the corresponding decals, and several engine sound files.

    7. General Dynamics F-16A/B Block 15 OCU Venezuelan Air Force
      This model represents the F-16 A/B in service with the Venezuelan Air Force since 1983 to present date
      Venezuela was the first Latin-American country who got permission from the US to buy F-16s. They stayed the sole operator in Southern America untill Chile received their new F-16s in the course of 2005.
      Peace Delta
      In May 1982, the government of Venezuela signed an agreement to buy 18 block 15 F-16A's and six Block 15 F-16B's to replace the fleet of Mirage III interceptors and Mirage 5 ground-attack aircraft serving with the Fuerza Aérea Venezolana. This purchase was under the Peace Delta Foreign Military Sales program. The original intent was for an order of up to 72 aircraft, but budget restraints lowered that number to 24.
      However, the Venzuelan order was not approved immediately because the US government wanted to sell Venezuela the F-16/79 (a slightly degraded F-16 version developed for export orders) instead. In 1983, the US government abandoned its hopes of selling the F-16/79, and finally approved the sale of the F100-powered F-16s to Venezuela
      The FAV accepted its first aircraft in September 1983. FAV F-16s wear an attractive green/brown color scheme, with the insignia of the Aviacion de Combate (Combat Aviation) on the tail and roundels on the wings. A four-digit serial is painted on the fuselage just below the tail fin.
      Of the original 24 aircraft that Venezuela bought, three have crashed: the first two, due to engine failure, and the second one, an F-16B, crashed during a maneuver on an air show at Base Aerea El Libertador, where Grupo 16 is based. In this accident, the first and second commander of the squadron where killed. The Venezuelan Air Force was looking for US government approval to replace these two aircraft and was planning to overhaul and update the remaining 22 airframes. At the end of October 1997, the US government approved the sale of the two F-16s, as well as an upgrade packet including the F-100-PW-220E. However, the purchase of the two attrition airframes has been halted until further notice.

    8. The Hawker Siddeley Harrier is a British military aircraft.
      It was the first of the Harrier Jump Jet series of aircraft
      and was developed in the 1960s as the first operational ground
      attack and reconnaissance aircraft with vertical/short takeoff
      and landing (V/STOL) capabilities and the only truly successful
      V/STOL design of that era. The Harrier was developed directly
      from the Hawker Siddeley Kestrel prototype aircraft, following
      the cancellation of a more advanced supersonic aircraft, the
      Hawker Siddeley P.1154. The British Royal Air Force (RAF)
      ordered the Harrier GR.1 and GR.3 variants in the late 1960s.
