BELL AH-1S(Prod) COBRA Ver 2.0 for SF2
 
January 2016.
 
This is a third party add on of the AH-1S(Prod) Cobra using models and cockpits created by me.
The original flight model is standard as on many free to download helicopters.
I have just modified it a bit.
 
It is designed for and works only in the SF2 series.
 
ver 1 was never uploaded as i started t o upgrade files during work on this. So this is upgraded to my 2.0 standard.
 
WeaponPACK for this model is also included.

This addon works only with included WeaponPACK. All of weapon stations are made as specific station code and will work only with this weapon pack.
 
Standard commands for activating Cobra features:
 
AIRBRAKES - sun filter/shader on off - just for fun no airbrakes so empty animation slot for use.
 
ARRESTING HOOK - jump from pilot station to gunner station.
 
LANDING GEAR - skid search light on/off at any speed. Dont forget to retract it because you wil be not able to shoot.

 
A2A mode - gunner station TSU guncross for turret.
 
A2Ground mode - pilot M73 cross.
 

ANIMATION 7 - turret doors
 
ANIMATION 8 - ammo bay dooors
 
ANIMATION 9 - gunner door (ext and cockpit view)
 
ANIMATION 10 - pilot door (ext and cockpit view)
 
ANIMATION 1 - NVG (It is not nvg but some greent filter) If you don't like it disable it in cockpitini file.
 
Airfield eye candy blades animation.
 

Technicaly it is old S model with few upgrades. It has new 1st version of flat plate canopy. Rest things remain same as in previous S(mod) Cobra. In 1987 S(Prod) Cobra was redesignated AH-1P.
In mid 80s some birds received K-747 blades. Here represented by 78 model.
 
For take off: Around 75% of throttle vector (small needle on RPM clock in cockpit should be like 65degree up) - (default ctrl + ) and then increase power to 70-85% (or more for quick lift) and pull controll stick little and snake will take off. Then reduce throttle vector as needed and reduce power to 69%. It should fly around 110kts now. 69% is about cruising speed.
 
When on the ground you can see rotating blades for pitch and roll. Just additional and unnecesary thing (not visible so much when flying) but it is possible so it is there. Not working like i want but better then nothing.
 
There are two different pylons on inboard stations one for rocketpods one for gunpods. Just to have a proper angle of fire with GP. It is not proper for real model but in my opinion best what can be done for SF engine. Rocket pods are ok with correct angle on inboard stations.
 
NVG.
Unfortunately there is no NVG in this game.
I just added green "filter" to cockpit and you can activate it by default Animation 1 key.
In external view ther will be little change in cockpit- unfortunately not moving with pilot/guner head.
In copit view there is green glow and filter It is definitely not helping during night flight but this is beta version. Maybe one day real nvg will be possible here. If you dont like it disable it in cockpit.ini file. This feature apears only in National Guard 85 model and bonus,
 

Skins:
77 model
1st Sq(Air),17th Cav. 82nd CAB. 1978
42nd Combat Avn Brigade,New York ANG.1981
 
78 model with K747 blades.
1st Sq, 167th Air cavalry Nebraska ANG.1991
D Company 25th CAB, 25th Inf Div.
 
All serial numbers are proper for S(Prod) / P model but am not sure if these numbers appeared in specific units.
some seiral are taken from available photos and are matched to units. Some are just placeholders but are correct for model block buid.
 
Weapons.
All weapons are reskined. TOW models are new.
Most of the weapon are same as in previous packs and are common to G/Q/S/P model.
Including XM158 and M200 launchers.
TOWs BGM-71A/B/C/D
 

One more thing. I am using mostly standard weapon effects.
Make sure to edit it your way if you decide to use this weapons.
 
Pilots:
I am using helopilots by OldDiego.
Some pilots models might be too big for this helo.
 
 
 
Enjoy.
Report Bugs.
Edit your way.

This is simple remod, of Florian's Sea King model
Representing Spanish Navy Sikorsky HS.9 SeaKing.
Model itself is Florian work and all hail to him for his work.

This package and any part of it may NOT in any way, shape or form be used in any payware additions.
Any persons wishing to make further modfications, MUST remember to put everyone's name in it.

You need FakePilot mod to use this addon/
Model itself is untouched by me.

All decals are made by me and are based on available documents and photos - historicaly correct.

Skins represents only operator - 5 Escuadrilla of Spanish Navy. Repreents only early paint / model version from 1966 to early 90's

This helo got new ini work. So if you have old Florian SeaKing - do a backup. Becasue this is new and you might not like it.
new aircraft data ini with new flight model, and few differences
animation keys reassigned.

Right side rear slide doors are opened as bomb_bay
left side slide door as ANIMATION KEY 1
Rotor brake ANIMATION KEY 7
Folding rotor ANIMATION KEY 8

Ive put some speed limits for animations up to 30 kts for doors,and rotor animation so you can fold onboard vessel.
Flying is done same way as in my helos. Vector thrust controll, etc.. it is pretty simple.

Last thing:
There is new cockpit. As replacement ive done some simple generic cockpit for SH-3. Since there is lot of versions of SeaKing lot of pits, this is generic and simple build, that should fit here.
Consider it as beta, few things are not working there.

Before install backup yout older files.
All helicopters comes as separate install with all needed files (weapons, decals etc).
I need more testers and more informations to finish this project.
They will be part of bigger ODS 30 Anni helicopters pack.
I added temporary CAS mission for Mi-8, to test AI attacks.
Apache is using Helfires in fake pods, cause AI don't like guided missiles.
You must rearm player helicopter for normal missiles before mission to have TV screen active.
 
Pls, test these models and tell me your opinions.

Copy all files to specific folders in your game mod directory. 

ANIMATION 1 & 2 - cockpit doors
ANIMATION 8 - unfold hoist

ANIMATION 10 - lower/raise hoist.
This is beta file.
Better to share than store on hard drive.
 
Aircraft include generic Bell Huey cockpit.
 
Flying.
As with all my previous helos flying is quite easy. With little practice, you can even hoover. Without fake flaps and airbrakes.
Important here to control is using rudder and vector thrust control.
Normally throttle vector control on 88-89 degree increase power 55% wait little and then increase to 100% and helo will take off nicely.
 
Pack includes one helicopter with 1 skin

Have fun.
Hope you will enjoy it same as me when working on it.

SF2 Westland Whirlwind HAR Upgrade Pack                    4/19/2021
-For SF2 =ONLY= (Full 4/5 Merged Reccomended)
**NOTE: this is for the British built versions -0NLY-!!**
This is major upgrade of the Westland Whirlwind (piston powered) as released by Strahi. Please be advised, if you have the original download, you will unfortunately have to delete it from your mods folder(s). THIS version is highly modified, with many additional items. If left as "drag & drop" over the original, there will be conflicts that might be unresolvable. Thus, the need for complete removal of the original. This has been approved by Strahi, to whom I extend great thanks!!
The following services/units are covered. The first listing is the name of the skin folder itself. The rest is the description you will see on the skin selection dropdown on the Loadout Screen:
Royal Air Force: 
RAF1 - No.22 Sqdn, 55-62, overall yellow
RAF2 - No.28 Sqdn, ?? date, Eurocamo*
RAF3 - No.110 Sqdn, 1954, Kuala Lampur*
JHU - Joint Helicopter Unit, HMS Ocean, Suez, 1956 
Royal Navy:
RN - 848 NAS, DGNB overall, early 50s
RN2 - Ship's Flight, HMS Protector, 55-65, Antarctic Patrol
RN3 - 848 NAS, HMS Bulwark, 1960s
RN4 - 781 NAS, RNAS Yeovilton (Green Parrot)
Suez - 848 NAS, HMS Albion, Suez 56
JRV:
YU - Soko Whirlwind, Yugoslavian Air Force, 1961

*= be advised, these units MAY have had the later, turbine power marks. It's also possible some of those listed above, while still having serving piston-powered Whirlwinds, would have also recieved turbine power aircraft.
The SF2 'date switch' is =NOT= used on any of the skins. I felt it would cause too many issues and confusions.
Many painted on insignia and service markings remain as such. This is due to the minimal amount of meshes used to build the aircraft. All new serial number decals have been made for all included versions (up to 26 each). As is to be expected, while all are correct for the aircraft & services depicted, they are 'generic' in nature. When a unit's or service's serials HAVE been found, you'll see the star (*) in the number list dropdown. Decal randomization is TRUE. When possible, the RAF & RN squadron badges are used at the "patch" for viewing on the Loadout Screen
On the aircraft selection drop down list, you'll see:
Whirlwind HAR/HC (st)
The (st) is for Strahi, and will diferentiate this Whirlwind for any others that may or may not exist. 
As is always recommended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. PLEASE read them, before installing!!!
Happy Landings!

added missing Decals folders!!

SF2 Bell TH1-L Huey Remod Pack                    4/30/2021
-For SF2 =ONLY= (Full 4/5 Merged Recommended)
This is an update/remod back of the TH1-L Huey trainer as used by Helicopter Training Squadron 18 (HT-18) "Vigilant Eagles" from 1969 thru 1998(ish). The original SF1 upload, from 2005, has recieved something of an overhaul, mostly to the skin, and now with the addition of 100% historical BuNum (serials) and Modex/pennant numbers.
Extensive research has allowed me to run down the full 45 aircraft production run, as used by both HT-8 and HT-18. All serials are 100% historically correct. when possible, they have been matched to their Modex/Pennant numbers. Those with the star (*) on the Number list are positives matches. Those without the star, could not be matched to a specific Modex.
This is the full aircraft, with all necessary parts included (sounds, pilots, etc). A new Hangar Screen was created, as well as damage tgas and the addition of a destroyed model. The data ini has had the hit boxes corrected. The FM itself remains untouched from it's original "as issued" state. Be advised of continuing issues with helo FMs in SF2. The Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), shift/0 (zero) opens the sliding cabin doors.
When in game, on the aircraft selection drop down you'll see:
TH-1L Huey
As is always recommended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. PLEASE read them, before installing!!! The full Change Log is also in the "Notes" section. The original release readme from 2005 is also included, for historical purposes.
Happy Landings!

SF2 UH-19/HO4S/HRS Chickasaw Upgrade Pack                    4/12/2021
-For SF2 =ONLY= (Full 4/5 Merged Reccomended)
**NOTE: this is for the American/non-British versions -0NLY-!! Upgrades for the Whirlwind will follow**
This is major upgrade of the UH-19/HO4S/HRS as released by Strahi. Please be advised, if you have the original download, you will unfortunately have to delete it from your mods folder(s). THIS version is highly modified, with many additional items. If left as "drag & drop" over the original, there will be conflicts that might be unresolvable. Thus, the need for complete removal of the original. This has been approved by Strahi, to whom I extend great thanks!!
For those interested, the following services/units are covered:
US Air Force: 
41st Air Rescue Squadron, Hamilton AFB (early/mid 1950s)
US Navy:
HU-1 "Pacific Fleet Angles" (c.1952, Korea)
US Marines:
HMR-161 "Greyhawks" (c.1952, Korea)
US Army:
6th Transportation Co. (H), (Korea)
Generic Olive Drab overall
Royal Canadian Navy:
VH-21 (c.mid 1950s)
Many painted on insignia and service markings remain as such. This is due to the minimal amount of meshes used to build the aircraft. All new serial number decals have been made for all included versions (up to 26 each). As is to be expected, while all are correct for the aircraft & services depicted, they are 'generic' in nature. When a unit's or service's serials HAVE been found, you'll see the star (*) in the number list dropdown. Decal randomization is TRUE.
You will also be adding a new nation, "US ARMY", unless you have the Expanded Nations Mod by Menrva. Full instructions will be found in the INstall section below. If you do not wish to, you'll have to edit the texture set inis for the 2 Army skins back to "USAF". Game-wise, it won't matter either way.
On the aircraft selection drop down list, you'll see:
H-19 Chickasaw (st)
The (st) is for Strahi, and will diferentiate this H-19 for any others that may or may not exist. In reality, it should read "H-19/HRS/HO4S", but what the hey! We all know what it is!
As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. PLEASE read them, before installing!!!
You can expect the same treatment is being given to his Whirlwind pack, as well. It will be relased when finished.
Good Hunting & Happy Landings!

Sikorsky AH-60L Arpia IV
The UH-60L Arpía IV , also called simply Arpía , is a gunship helicopter developed by the Colombian Air Force , with Israeli advice from the UH-60L Black Hawk . As a result of the need for the Colombian Air Force to have a gunship helicopter as a means of deterrence against external enemies, the Arpía is essentially a UH-60L to which more equipment and weapons have been added both internally and externally.Currently, the Colombian Air Force has 12 aircraft.
The Helicopter can fire Spike NLOS an Spike LR ATGM missiles, both in the inventory of the FAC, GAU-19 12.7 mm gatling guns, 70mm rocket pods.

SF2 UH-1B Huey Slick & Hog Remod Pack           9/14/2022
-For SF2 (Full 4/5 Merged Reccomended)-
This package contains remods of Pasko's 1stGen UH-1B helicopters, both the 'Slick' and 'Hog' gunships. These aircraft have been given unique name identifiers, as to not have the conflict with other mods of these same birds.
I've collected just about all the 1stGen skins I could find for these, and created all new decals for them. Where possible, and discoverable, any serial/BuNums associated with a particular unit have been marked with a star (*). All serials ARE historically correct for the models depicted. In the case of the Canadian Hueys, no "(*) star" is used as the 10 serials ARE the 100% historically correct ones. This mod depicts several models of the UH-1B that are visually "pretty close" to each other. In truth, their minor differences won't effect gameplay in any way, shape or form. These are the UH-1B, UH-1C and UH-1E. Decal randomization is TRUE for all skins.
UH-1B Slick ==
US Army; early and late skins (dark or lighter OD)
US Army Medevac: possibly representing 57th Medical Detachment
USMC : VM0-2 "Cherry Deuce" (used both Slicks & Hogs)
Canada: CF-118 3 skins covering their uses and from 1966 thru 1995 in their Search & Rescue and utility service.
UH-1B/C/E Hog ==
US Army; early and late skins (dark or lighter OD)
US Navy: HAL-3 Seawolves
USMC: HML-167 "Warriors, VMO-6 "Tomcats", 
The sF2 'date switch' is fully active, so watch for it. Also included are (finally) damage textures, a destroyed model, all weapons, sounds, pilot figures and so forth. The "275rocket" is a stock 3W item, and therefore not included. FM is relatively untouched (ie: "as is"), so be aware. I'm sure further refinements of the FM are needed.
On the aircraft selection drop-down menu, you'll see:
UH-1B/C/E Huey "Slick" (P)
UH-1B/C/E Huey "Hog" (P)
Obviously, the "P" stands for Pasko.
As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. PLEASE read them, before installing!!! Also =PLEASE= read the "Notes" section for information about Nation assignment for the American birds. Where possible, ALL original readmes have been included.
Happy Landings!

CH-124 pack for SF2
 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Based on the SH-3D AND SeaKingMK41 made by Florian. 
 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
 
This is the CH-124 Sea King as used by the RCAF for the SF2 series of games.
 
The skins represent the schemes used by the RCAF on their CH-124 Sea Kings.

The serial numbers in this skin pack along with planes numbers are real one's. 

You will get the following skins in this package :
CH-124A        circa 1963
CH-124B        circa 1974
CH-124B        circa 1991
 
* Note : I did not touched the model, so visually only the CH-124A 1963 variant will look like the real one.  Thanks to Florian who made a change to my CH-124A lod, i am able to depict a CH-124B look alike as the dome radar has been put on the modified LOD. So unless someone is doing modeling work on this bird to add the RCAF goodies like the Flir, sunoboys launchers and a few other things someday, only the skins for the 1974 and 1991 variant will reflect the real birds.
 

I HIGHLY recommand to install the complete aircraft as follow.
COMPLETE AIRCRAFT :

Copy the CH-124 Objects/aircraft folders content to your game aircraft folder.
Copy the CH-124 Objects/decals folder content to your game decals folder.
Copy the CH-124 Objects/pilots folders content to your game pilots folder.
Copy the CH-124 Objects/weapons folders content to your game weapons folder.
Copy the files in the CH-124 Objects files to your game objects folder.
Copy the CH-124 Sounds folder content to your game sounds folder.
 
Credits:
- Thirdwire
- Florian for the great SH-3D model AND SeaKingMK41. But more for having modified the LOD file so i could depict the ''B'' version.
- Myself for the decals and rework :)
 
Happy flights!

BELL UH1-H IROQUOIS
PAKISTANI ARMY
 
Using Yakarov79's excellent UH-1H I have created 3 new skins for the Pakistani Army, the first is the standard overall green, there is a grey/green camo scheme, and finally what appears to be the latest cam scheme which is sand/green/brown . I have included the whole package in this upload to make it easier to install as it needs really  to be installed separate from a general UH-1H installation, as it is a purely Pakistani machine. all the files needed are included, sounds, weapons, pilots etc etc . I have left the decals the same for all 3 schemes, as it appears that standard markings are commonplace on Pakistani aircraft. One thing to note though, is that when the gunners are enabled, it removes the numbering from the cargo doors, not a major issue at all, but I just thought you may need to know. also, the latest iterations of the Huey in Pakistani service appear to be armed with miniguns rather than M60's however I dont have the ability to adjust this , so the Pigs will have to suffice, I am not sure if this modification is for the newer Venoms, rather than the standard UH-1 , however, if it is possible to mod the gunners with the miniguns, that would be totally ace.
 
As I said this model is originally from Yakarov79, so all the main, and important workings are his sterling work not mine, I have merely adapted it to reflect the Pakistan Army's aircraft.
 
As always, any questions or issues/omissions, please feel free to message me. I hopefully will be doing more UH-1H's soon, in fact I have started working on them already, so wait out on that !! 
 
Finally as always, ENJOY !!! 

Please find enclosed the fix for the missing decals for the Pakistani UH-1H for the cargo doors when a gunner is enabled, just replace the decals.ini file in all 3 colour schemes, it is exactly the same file for all 3 so just delete the old one and replace with this one, then we shall all be number enhanced 
 
I apologise I should have fixed this from the start, however, after a quick chat with Yakarov79 I got on to it this morning, and corrected the error, quick and easy fix , as I suspected .

Three models of this type and a lot of skins.
