My favorite Spitfire ever, so close to its '30 racing floatplane ancestor.
This replaces my previous fake merlin S 31 and Fake Spitfire 19 (18) in TSF too.
(This has Griffon engine and the bubble canopy!)
Features:
-A-TEAM/Capun model * (lods not included)
-Stary's famous pit
-Pilot and RR Griffon sound.
- 2 planes
- 22 Skins with proper decalsets:
5 RAF (Silver 1, Blue 3, Grey 1)
1 IAF (Blue)
3 RThAF (Blue)
11 Flygvapnet (Blue)
2 TuAF (Blue 1, Green 1)
Install:
Delete previous Spitfire19 & S31 (fake) aircraft folders.
As usual all in main mod folder and overwrite.
Then take Spitfire19-R1 lod from A-TEAM StrikeFighters2 "WW2Europe/Aircraft/Spitfire19" folder, copy and paste in your mod install "Spitfire19" & "S31" folders.
Note:
I'm going to upload a serie of A-TEAM/CAPUN great WWII planes post war remodded.
I'ld wish again that CA and A-TEAM great sites and people could find a way to be a whole great community, because togheter we will be all richer and stronger.
So don't post anything against anyone here, please.
Let's make mods and not mod-wars!
That's all
Enjoy.

The first recon spitfire in use with RAF, RNoAF and RDAF in '50.
3 new skins included, each with historical decalset
The plane is from TMF & Wrench (see original readme for WW2 version)
what's new:
- cockpit now close automatically at take-off and it's fully animated from inside too (following cliff's hints for Spitfires IX);
- added pylon via fake pilot is plane specific and painted;
V.1.1: pilot and fake pilot (centerline pylon) fixed; new tank
That's all.
@paulopanz
P.S.: My wishes are for one more outstanding Scandinavian Campaign set in Early '50 using all these new viking spits (25.8.2016 a "real" proper Griffon S-31/Spifire Mk. XIX is on my schedule too...) ...
SF2 WW2 F8F-1 Bearcat 7/22/2016
"A Somewhat What If aircraft for WW2 PTO '46"
***Note: Due to massive changes in the skins, decals, and inis, if you have created a WW2 Version of the Bearcat, you ARE advised to move, remove, rename or otherwise hide it from the Game Engine. THIS mod will cause conflicts, due to aforementioned changes, with many of the original parts.***
This full aircraft package includes mods to Geo's F8F Bearcat, (re)creating the original 600-odd F8F-1 versions as deployed from August, 1945, just as the War ended. I've made the assumption, for PTO '46 users, that the A-Bombs, for whatever reason, were not used and the aircraft entered full squadron service for Operations Olympic and Coronet.
See the 'Changes' section in the "Notes" below.
The package includes 2 skin & decal sets:
VF-19 (USS Langley, CVL-27) as seen in 8/45, enroute to the War Zone, as the war ended)
VF-3 (USS Coral Sea, if the CVB class carriers had entered the war in the later parts of 1945)
With the exception of the nation marking, which remain painted on, all other markings are decals. Decal randomization is TRUE. Many are by Geo from the original release. Other (modex) are by me. The ship code letters ARE correct for the late 45 thru late 46 time frame. The skins have been partly repained to remove the incorrect "G" system marking used on the orignal VF-19 skin. Skins remain in bmp format. As they carry no markings, this will allow other skinners the freedom to create other carrier air group codes, although new modex numbers will probably be required as well.
The hangar screen is an SF2 version of my 1st Gen "Box Art" one.
All weapons (drop tanks), sounds and a pilot figure are included. Other weapons used (rocket, bombs, etc) use those you should already have in the WW2 Weapons Pack.
The canopy opens with the standard keystroke, Shift/0 (zero). Wingfold is =NOT= active, as it never was when originally released in 2006. The aircraft is NOT exported, having only the single user, the US Navy.
The aircraft has been given a Service Start Date of of July, 1945. The data ini contains a new (if somewhat experimental FM, but MUCH closer to stated performances). It may require further fine tuning by experts; to that end I've included the USN BuAer's "Standard Performance" chart PDF within the main aircraft folder. This is for those remaining FM gurus to use, if they wish, to further refine the FM.
As always, unzip this to a temp folder somwhere, and you'll have access to the rest of the readme for it's instructions. PLEASE read it before installing, ok?
As always, read the "Notes" section for notes and other ramblings
Happy Landings!

SF2 WW2 BT2D "Skyraider" (AD-1) 7/21/2016
"A Somewhat What If aircraft for WW2 PTO '46"
**Note: consider this 'version 3.0', replacing the SF/Wo* version based on MontyCZ Skyraider I'd done many years ago. THIS version replaces that one completely. Delete it if you still have it.**
*Note you =MUST= have SF2:V as part of your merged install, as the mod references the stock A-1H lod for the aircraft.*
The is a semi-what if aircraft, as the BT2D did exist (and was renamed the AD-1 in 1947). This mod assumes that the aircraft WAS deployed to the Western Pacific in WW2, in the event that the development and/or usage of the A-Bombs was curtailed for some reason.
The aircraft comes with three skin/decal sets (although only one actual skin residing in the main folder; the "Brain32 trick".)
VB-14 (USS WASP)
VT-88 (USS YORKTOWN)
VB-19 (USS CORAL SEA)
The skin remains in bmp format. All markings are decals and decal randomization is TRUE. All Aircraft carry the new style (post-July 1945) "letter code" ship identification tags. These ARE correct for the time from 7/45 - 12/46(ish). VT88 & VB19 also make use the "hundreds" series modex numbers, which also started usage 7/45. VB14 remains with is double digit modex numbers. Several other ship ID code decal are provided, for those wishing to replace other SB2C & TBM units with the BT2D. Other units can be easily made if one knows their code letters (I do!) Other units may require new, different sequenced modex number decals.
All weapons, sounds and a pilot figure are included. The canopy opens with the standard keystroke, Shift/0 (zero). Wingfold is active, by using it's standard keystroke, Shift/9, but it's not reccomended to fold the wings when loaded, as due to some sort of game limitation, the weapons will NOT move with the wing (no matter how much I've tried to fix that).
The aircraft has been given a "start date' of of June, 1945.
The aircraft is equipped with radar, (AN/APS-4) in an external pod, and is speced to carry and deploy just about all USN weapons of the period, including "Bat" glide bombs, and torpedos.
As always, unzip this to a temp folder somwhere, and you'll have access to the rest of the readme for it's instructions.
Happy Landings!

SF2:I REAF/EAF Spitfire Mk.V Trop Pak by Cocas Aircraft Factory & Co (ver 0.9) 1/06/2014
-- Something for the Mid-East --
= For SF2:I, and/or Full-5 Merged +Expansion Paks (Reccomended/Preferred) =
*Note: having whichever expansion pak gave us the Spit Mk. IX is required, as this mod references the stock 3W destroyed Spitfire, and early EAF roundels. It is designed to be =ONLY= used in the SF2:I environment. Anything else is 'at your own risk'. (although it WILL work in a FUll-5 merged +2 Expansion Paks) *
This is tagged as Ver 0.9, as we're sure some minor fixes may be required. We wanted to get it out into the hands of End Users , both for your flying pleasure, and further examinations.
As stated, above this aircraft package is for use ONLY in the SF2I environment, and only between the years of 47-49 (although tagged with a 44 start date). This is required, as the national marking reference ALL stock 3W decals.
All markings are decals, and Decal Randomization is set to TRUE. You have 26 historical serial numbers, in Arabic characters.
Skin included with the package is:
EAF: No. 2 Squadron (post-45, just EAF; previous user, REAF)
Finished in the Standard Desert Day Scheme, as delivered from RAF stocks during WW2.
The canopy operates via the Standard Animation Keystroke , Shift/0. Guns are also grouped, MGs in Group 1, the cannon in Group 2. No weapons or guns are included -you SHOULD already have these-, but the pilot figure and drop tank are.
When in game, you'll see:
Spitfire Mk.Vb Trop EAF (CAF)
on the aircraft selection dropdown menu. This will diferentiate THIS Spitfire from any other EAF Mk.Vs you may (or may not) have.
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them.
Good Hunting!

Changes for verson 0.95:
Revamped all hit boxes
Here is Geezer's excellent CR-42 model set up for SF-2 use.
This CR-42 represents an early production version with no bomb racks. Future plans include an Italian fighter/bomber version, export versions, and one with a tight date range for Battle of Britain use.
Make sure to check the included README regarding installation.

Not sure who made the original PW_R1830-90 engine sound but a modified version is included.
ISSUES:
The cockpit is WIP with non functional gauges.
WAIVERS:
This file is for freeware use only, commercial use is not permitted.
Here is a great looking Sea Gladiator built by Geezer and set up for StrikeFighters2. The default installation is for MTO but also included are a few additional files that can be added for ETO use.
The installation is quite straight forward but make sure you READ the included README to understand the sound file installation. It's a small but additional hoop to jump through.
