SF2 3W F-84F "Thunderstreak" USAF & ANG Skin Pak
By Wrench
SF2 3W F-84F "Thunderstreak" USAF & ANG Skin Pak 5/17/15
-- For FULL-5 Merged SF2 WITH SF2E Expansion Pak 2!!! --
*Note: MUST have (whichever!) Expansion Pack gave use the F-84F Thunderstreak. IIRC, it was SF2E Expansion Pack 2*
Here are several new skins for the stock 3rd Wire F-84F Thunderstreak (this is the swept wing one, not the slab-winged C/D/E/G). These represent USAF and Air National Guard units in the 1950s through the A/Cs retirment in 1971 (ish). This packge ONLY contains skins and decals. I've not supplied any parts for you to make it Player Flyable . There are other mods that do that.
You have:
55th TFS, 20th FBW (1950s, based in the UK, in NM)
182nd TFS, Texas Air Guard (post-68 in SEA Camo)
119th TFS, New Jersey Air Guard (circa 1961-ish, in NM)
Most markings are decals, excepting the 55ths color bands. Decal randomization is TRUE. For the 55th, those numbers displaying a star (*) on the loadout screen (individual aircraft dropdown) are 100% historically correct for the unit. Those withOUT the star, while having served with the 20th FBW, could not be traced to a specific squadron.
The other two units use "generic" sets, either created by me, or in the case of the 119th, using stock 3W number decals.
The SF2 "date switch" is used for the 182nd, activating it automatically in 1969. By that time, all remaining American units HAD been swtiched to SEA camo.
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them! And have fun!
Happy Landings!

SF2 F2H-3 Banshee Tweeks Pak -for Razbam Banshees
By Wrench
SF2 F2H-3 Banshee Tweeks Pak -for Razbam Banshees 4/6/2015
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
***PLEASE NOTE!!! You must have the original Razbam Payware Banshee set for all the necessary items!!! If you can't purchase the item from the Razbam Store, do =NOT= download this mod; it will do you NO good. This package =ONLY= includes those items modded by me.***
This package contains a few (partly) repainted skin maps for the original skins. They now carry decals for Modex and BuNums.
These are =ONLY= for the F2H-3, as used in the mid thru late 1950s by the USN and RCN (1962-ish end date).
Included are new decals, decal inis, number lists, etc. The repainted skin maps are:
Fuselage_t
Main_t *
Wing2_t
*-VF-193 only*
You'll find all these items in their appropriate skin subfolders.
Skins remain in bmp format. Decal randomization is TRUE. All USN aircraft use a "pool" of BuNum decals. The BuNums, while correct for this model, should be considered 'generic' in nature, as they represent only the aircraft itself, not specific aircraft in any particular unit. The RCN skin 'bunums' are historic, but again, not matched to any particular aircraft
National insignia, and CVG code letters remain painted on, as is the RCN fin flash.
The SF2 'date switch is used for the VF-193 skin (gull grey/white), activating it in 1955.
The decals are set as 'randomized' for all skins.
Modified data, loadout, and main (F-2H2.ini) inis are included. The avionics and cockpit inis have had a few small adjustments, as has the data ini (see "Notes" for more information). A new SF2 userlist.ini has also been created. Operation dates (including export start and stop) have been adjusted to 'closest year'.
A brighter gunsight tgs is included as well. Shadows have been turned OFF, due to 'tractor beam' issues. NEW damage tgas are supplied as well.
It may be advisable for you to back up ALL the original inis, just for safetys sake.
When in game, you'll see
F2H-3 Banshee (Raz)
on the aircraft selection drop down menu.
The aircraft is carrier-capable (after a fashion -see "Notes"), with SF2NA coding for deck 'parking'.However, as the wings do =NOT= fold, you will probably NOT see them parked on the boat. HOWEVER... it has MAJOR issues in getting back on the boat under AI or Autopilot control. The FM needs to be completely overhauled (again, see "Notes").
The Standard Animation Keystroke is used for the canopy, (Shift/0)
No weapons are included, using all stock in-game itmes. Nor are sounds, pilots, etc, included. These are Razbam copyright items, and are included in his package. Those that have NOT updated their pilot to the SF2 folderized standard, should do so soonest.
Further work is required by those FM Gurus to bring it all the way home. I've done what I can with it.
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them BEFORE installing (but after unzipping, of course). Also, give the "Notes" section a read too. It, as usual, contain important operational information.
Full credits are listed in the usual place, down with the "Notes".
Good Hunting, and Happy Landings!

SF2 F2H-4 Banshee Tweeks Pak -for Razbam Banshees
By Wrench
SF2 F2H-4 Banshee Tweeks Pak -for Razbam Banshees 4/12/2015
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
***PLEASE NOTE: You must have the original Razbam Payware Banshee set for all the necessary items!!! If you can't purchase the item from the Razbam Store, do =NOT= download this mod; it will do you NO good. This package =ONLY= includes those items modded by me.***
This package contains a few (partly) repainted skin maps for the original skins. They now carry decals for Modex and BuNums.
These are =ONLY= for the F2H-4, as used in the mid 1950s through early 1960s by the USN and USMC.
Included are new decals, decal inis, number lists, etc. The repainted skin maps for the 2 original skins are:
Fuselage_t
Main_t
Wing2_t
You'll find all these items in their appropriate skin subfolders.
You are also getting 2 brand new skins, for the "early" paint schemes. They are:
VF-114 (NM)
VMF-533 (DGNB)
This was done because the 2 original skins are for AFTER the switch to Gull Grey & White. The aircraft operations years predate this, and these skins were needed for histerical accuracy.
These 2 skins carry no painted on marking, other than the star-and-bar (and the fin top color for VF-114), making it a fairly easy proposition for other texture artists to create other units via decals for CVG letters or Modex numbers (and painting out or changing the color of the fin topper).
Skins remain in bmp format. Decal randomization is TRUE for all skins. All aircraft use a "pool" of BuNum decals. VMF-533 uses the same numbers, but residing in their own folder, as they are white in color. The BuNum decals, while correct for this model, should be considered 'generic' in nature, as they represent only the aircraft itself, not specific aircraft in any particular unit.
National insignia, and CVG code letters remain painted on for the originals.
The SF2 'date switch is used for the gull grey/white skins, activating them in 1956, for their respective services. The other 2 early skins will show when years BEFORE 1956 are selected.
Modified data, loadout, and main (F-2H2.ini) inis are included. The cockpit ini has had a few small adjustments, as has the data ini (see "Notes" for more information). A new SF2 userlist.ini has also been created. Operational dates (including export start and stop) have been adjusted to 'closest year'.
A brighter gunsight tgs is included as well. Shadows have been turned OFF, due to 'tractor beam' issues. NEW damage tgas are supplied as well.
It may be advisable for you to back up ALL the original inis, just for safetys sake (read: DO IT!!).
When in game, you'll see
F2H-4 Banshee (Raz)
on the aircraft selection drop down menu.
The aircraft is carrier-capable (after a fashion) with SF2NA coding for deck 'parking'.However, as the wings do =NOT= fold, you will probably NOT see them parked on the boat. More information in the "Notes" section.

*Note: There is a distinct probability that this mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo*
1stGen game installs at any patch level. End Users that attempt it, do so at
their own risk. A Full 5 Merged install is reccomened at the LATEST patch level.*
This is an add on pack for use with the KAW Sabres Pak availalbe at the following
URL:
http://combatace.com/files/file/13604-sf2-korean-war-era-f-86-sabre-pak/

units that transitioned to the Sabre from other aircraft (Mustangs and Shooting
Stars).
Skins/decal sets are for the following units...
67th FBS, 18th FBW (in it's mid-1953 markings)
35th FBS
36th FBS
80th FBS, 8th FBG (Wing?)

star (*) are 100% matched to their unit. Those marked with a cross (ok, the plus
sign, +) served with that Group/Wing, but could not be matched to a particular
squadron. Those with no mark, are 'generic' F-86F-30 serials

SF2 A-4F VA-164 'Ghost Riders' 1973
By Nyghtfall
A-4F Skyhawk, VA-164 'Ghost Riders' Vietnam 1973 Skinpack
*** SF2V required for A-4F-model, tested in full 5-merged installation ***
The skin represents A-4Fs from VA-164 'Ghost Riders' in 1973 aboard the carrier USS Hancock in Vietnam.
All BuNo are correct for this squadron, but unfortunately I couldn't find the correct assignment for all modex to BuNo.
This pack contains another version of "Lady Jessie", this time the wellknown version with big letters on the fuselage. In 1973 VA-164 was on another combat-cruise in Vietnam. Carrier Air Wing CVW-21, which VA-164 was part of, was tasked with the responsibility, to develop expertise in unique mission types. For example VA-55 was tasked with Iron Hand missions, while VA-164 was to develop tactics to use Laser Guided Weapons at its best. Some A-4F were equipped with Laser Spot Trackers instead of the ususal Radar in the nose, so that LGBs could be used on designated targets. As these were only trackers, a special Designator was needed. For that case, 2 TA-4F were borrowed from USMC squadrons. A 2nd crewmember with a handheld-device to designate the targets was placed on the 2nd seat. Those people were volunteers from other squadrons, that usually flew E-1B or RF-8/F-8. As the handheld-device had to be held steady for a proper designation while the plane was flying, it was a not well-like job to do. But in the end, it proved successful and led to the development of build-in laserdesignators.
The pack consists of 2 parts:
- a skin for the stock A-4F, which cannot use laser-guided bombs (LGB). So this is only for the looks. Select the skin in the loadout-screen of the stock A-4F.
- a modification of the stock A-4F to use LGB. Ingame you will find a new plane - "A-4F (Laser Spot Tracker)" to choose. It also has a different gunsight and shows laser designated targets. For the laser-designator you have 2 options. First is to use the plane as is, meaning, you only can use LGBs on primary targets as they're always designated. The radarscreen is just black in that case, because the planes didnt have a radar anymore. Second, you use the Laser designator from the loadout screen and can use LGBs on every target. I included a modified AVQ-23 (modded from the stock one) for that purpose. It is not shown externally and is a compromise for playability-reasons. The radar-screen shows the target if you have selected one.
Planes marked with * are the LST-equipped ones (401, 407, 411, 413, 414), which have the different nosecone. 401 and 407 are confirmed by pictures, the other 3 are in for a good mix. There were more than 2 of them, but I couldn't find more numbers or other pictures.
Installation

1. unzip to a temporary folder
2. open "Put_In_Your_Mod folder" and do as you were told, if asked to overwrite, say 'yes' :P

Please note, 2 or 3 of these aircraft were "on loan" to the USAF from several UN Allied forces (Greece, iirc). They are also accurate, but carry the American insignias.

RF-101C 18TRS OP Sun Run
By DaniloE31
RF-101C 18TRS OP Sun Run
This is a new skin for one of the finest 3rd part models for the SF2 series, ie the RF-101C Voodoo from the Voodoo Mega Pack V2.0 by ErikGen, available here at CA:
http://combatace.com/files/file/12117-f-101-mega-pack-version-20/
It represents the six planes of 18TRS that took part at the Operation Sun Run in 1957, including the spare cells No. 5 & 6. Operation “Sun Run” was the attempt of a transcontinental speed record from LA to NY, which the Voodoos achieved with a time of 3:05,39 for the single trip and of 6:42,06 for the round trip.
Stunning how this record was beaten only 33 years later in 1990, by an SR-71A which took just 64min for the trip from LA to NY...
There are not very much pictures out there, even less reliable paintings, the best information I could gather are the following: a nice article from Jan van Waarde, which is the best story about Sun Run you can find far and wide, a picture by McDonnell of Sun Run No3 before delivery, the “propaganda” video praising the record and finally... some Hasegawa blue prints:

I used the original metal skin of the 45TRS by Dave (or at least I think... ) coming with the Mega Pack, I cleaned it up to make it naked and basic, and finally added every marking and insigna with the technique of decals. This was surely a bit time-consuming and a kind of compromise, but was to me the only way to display those 6 very different looking planes using just one folder...
The specular dds maps are also based on those from the original Mega Pack. The USAF star badge and the TAC patch are original TW work, everything else was drawn from scratch by me. Tested with Strike Fighters 2 Exp2.
Install extracting to:
X:\your mod folder\Strike Fighters2...\Objects\
I really hope you are going to love this little piece of aviation history.

RA-5C Skinpack
By slick cowboy
This package contains improved skins of the RA-5C Vigilante.
- Thinner and less visible panel lines, different weathering than the original skins.
- New squadrons with tail art and new decal tail numbering for each new squadron
- Now you can match this bird with more USN tailcodes in the game
Squadrons:
RVAH-5 "Savage Sons" tailcode NE (was already present in the original)
RVAH-6 "Fleurs" tailcode AJ
RVAH-6 "Fleurs" tailcode NG
RVAH-6 "Fleurs" tailcode NH
RVAH-7 "Peacemakers of the Fleet" tailcode AE
RVAH-11 "Checkertails" tailcode AA
RVAH-12 "Speartips" tailcode AC
RVAH-13 "Bats" tailcode NH
The tail artwork is painted on, so no decalling. Unfortunately when decalling over the fold section of the tail, the upper part of the decal disappears. But I drew the art in 2048x2048, that way it still looks ok in the game.
Installation:
First install aircraft. You can find it here:
http://combatace.com/files/file/9579-ra-5c-vigalante-sf2-v11
Then download this pack and from it, paste the "Objects" folder in your SF2 mod folder and overwrite.
(The original RVAH5 folder won't be overwritten as I renamed my version RVAH5_NE)

S-3B skins improved
By slick cowboy
These are improved skins for the S-3B Viking.
The improvements are especially thinner panel lines (I really hate those big ass blurs around the lines :-)) and I also added some rivets. I changed some decals as well.
I corrected a few lines here and there based on actual walkaround pics (the pylons and engines for instance)
I didn't redo all the the skins, but most of them. To make sure nothing gets lost I added all of the decals for each squadron.
The included skins are for:
VS-21, VS-22, VS-24, VS-27, VS-30, VS-32, VS-33 and VS-38.
I found the VS-22 and VS-24 in the Black Sea Expansion pack and no credits to be found there for these.
So if the real slim shady would stand up, then I can include him.
I also included the template I made based on the original skins, in case anyone would want to use it for missing squadrons.

SF2_TUAF_F4_BLACKHAWK
By emresukhoi
Turkish Air Force was one of the prominent F-4 users with approximately 233 aircraft. The original order for F-4’s was 40 aircraft with the first being delivered in August 1974. In 1981 F-4E 66-0312 was delivered to the THK and with reorganization of Filo’s (squadrons) and its aircraft this F-4 became the property of 172nd Filo “Sahin”. In early 1990’s 172nd Filo was one of 3 squadrons assigned to the 2nd Tactical Air Force, 7 Ana Jet Us (Jet Air Base), Erhac-Malataya. With this reorganization the 172nd Filo became an interception squadron. In April 2009 172nd Filo was disbanded in anticipation of the arrival of the new F-35 Lightning II. To mark the occasion F-4E 66-0312 was given this special paint scheme “Kara Sahin” (Black Falcon - Black Hawk).
