F-15A Dark Camouflage v2.0
 
This is a darker colour "compass ghost" scheme for the Third Wire F-15A.
 
Its my attempt to give the stock eagle a later more modern feel about her.
Its is based on the stock TW skin at 1024 X 1024 resolution.
Apologies but I haven't yet acquired the skill or accuracy to attempt anything at a higher resolution yet.
Regardless I’m quite enjoying the new look.
Hoping some of you might enjoy it too. :-)

NB: This requires SF2 Europe though if renamed correctly should work in SF2 Israel for the F-15A Baz.
Unzip & place the objects folder directly in to your saved game / mods folder.

- Third Wire for the original F-15A artwork & WOI F-15A templates.
- Everyone at Combat Ace for their countless contributions & pool of knowledge.
 
P.S. I have included a list of supported stock F-15A squadrons.
If like me & you are not a hardcore aviation buff, you can use it to enjoy their different markings & associated tail art for the F-15A.

Last Cruise VF213 Skin to go along with the previously released CAG skin. See Readme.

This is a repaint of the VF213AJ05 skin from the Tomcat Superpack; it is meant to be a CAG/CO bird, not a line bird as it is in the Superpack. Bmps and jpegs are included but the bmps are kinda large. See the readme, drag and drop installation.

PAF F-16C Blk50/52 for SF2
 
This pack represents the F-16s of the PAF which are of the Blk50/52 standard.Some of these aircraft were new built airframes which were bought from the USA.The rest of the PAF's fleet of Vipers was upgraded and overhauled by the TAI(Turkish Air Industries).
 
This mod represents the following airframes:
Ac no.10803
Ac no.83703(Upgraded by TAI)
Ac no.85722
AC no.85728
Ac no.10905(Newly bought)
 
These textures will work with all of The Viper Team's F-16 models.But,they are specifically meant to be used with their Blk50/52 package.The skin in the folder named 'No.5 Falcons CFT' is meant to be used with the Single seat CFT(Conformal fuel Tanks) model.These skins were newly built and have nothing to do with my old F-16A Skin pack.In other words,If you are using these skins,UNINSTALL MY PREVIOUS PACK!These skins represent the following improvements:
 
-Corrected camo pattern
 
-Panel lines now clearly visible
 
-Real Aircraft serial numbers and Squadron Tails
 
Installation:
After unzipping,place the folders inside the 'skins' folder,into your desired F-16C aircraft folder(The folder present inside your Aircrafts folder).You must know at least know about the SF2 mods folder.
Note:If you do not know anything about the mod folder,the immediately stop the installation,go to the COmbatACE Forums,Go to the Strike Fighters 2 Knowledge Base and take a look at the thread explaining the Strike Fighters 2 mod folder mechanism.

PAF F-16A for SF2
 
This mod represents the F-16A Fighting Falcon in use with the Pakistan Airforce Since 1982.
 
Overview:
Pakistan recieved her first F-16 in 1982.A letter of agreement for up to 28 F-16A's and 12 F-16B's was signed December 1981. The contracts, Peace Gate I and Peace Gate II, were for 6 and 34 Block 15 models respectively which would be powered by the F100-PW-200 engine. The fist Peace Gate I aircraft was accepted at Fort Worth in October 1982. Two F-16A and four F-16B were delivered to Pakistan in 1983, the first F-16 arriving at PAF Base Sargodha (now known as PAF Base Mushaf) on 15 January 1983 flown by Squadron Leader Shahid Javed. The 34 remaining Peace Gate II aircraft were delivered between 1983 and 1987.
Between May 1986 and November 1988,PAF F-16s have shot down at least eight intruders from Afghanistan. The first three of these (one Su-22, one probable Su-22, and one An-26) were shot down by two pilots from No. 9 Squadron. Pilots of No. 14 Squadron destroyed the remaining five intruders (two Su-22s, two MiG-23s, and one Su-25).[31] Most of these kills were by the AIM-9 Sidewinder, but at least one (a Su-22) was destroyed by cannon fire. Flight Lieutenant Khalid Mahmoud is credited with three of these kills.
 
The Mod:
This mod represents Five Skins,Two for the Aircraft credited with the kills on Soviet/Afghan Planes intruding Pakistan's Airspace.All the base textures were made by the viper team and were modified by me using Gimp 2.6.The textures include skins for:
 
No.14 Squadron
No.9 Squadron 'GRIFFINS'
No.38 Tactical Air Wing(Afghan Kill)
N0.38 Tactical Air Unit Modern
No.9 "GRIFFINS' (Soviet/Afghan kill)
 
Installation:
This mod is only compatible with the F-16 model made by The Viper Team,specifically
for their F-16C Block 25/30 pack.After unzipping PAF F-16A 1.0,place the contents of the zip file inside your objects folder located in your mod folder.When asked to overwrite,click yes.Important:You MUST have the F-16C Block25/30 by The Viper Team installed to use these textures.
Note:If you do not know anything about the mod folder,the immediately stop the installation,go to the COmbatACE Forums,Go to the Strike Fighters 2 Knowledge Base and take a look at the thread explaining the Strike Fighters 2 mod folder mechanism.

Egyptian Air Force TW F-16A Skins
 
Requires Strike Fighters 2 Israel!!
 
This is my attempt at the EAF F-16A.
It contains the later well known high-viz grey scheme that gives some of the Egyptian aircraft their unique flavor & the overall standard Egyptian grey scheme.
 
I could only find a handful of reference photos of the early A & B models so feel free to make any suggestions or any changes.
 
It is possible to just drop the skins directly in to your F-16A_Netz folder but I recommend you use them with the Updated F-16A Block 10 1.1 pack or similar TW F-16A packages in the downloads section.
 
 
Installation:
 
Drop the skins folder in your F-16A or what ever you have called your TW F-16.
Place the decals folder in the in your Objects/Decals folder.
 
Add the following to your F-16A USERLIST:
 
[Egypt]
ServiceStartYear=1982
ServiceEndYear=2020
Availability=COMMON
 
 
Hope you enjoy

And thanks to Airfighters.com for references.

For the F/A-8F, this is one of the aircraft shown by VX-9 during the Century of Naval Aviation ceremony.

Thank you for downloading the Mid- and Low-vis generic skin pack and the corrective decal pack for the Thirdwire F-14A and F-14A_77.for the Thirdwire Productions F-14A_77. This pack was made to provide low and medium visibility markings for all squadrons on the stock squadron list.
 
These decals would not be possible without TK and Thirdwire for creating SF2:NA and in some cases providing some of the artwork here than has been modified to suit the demands of this pack.
 
Further recognition goes to SuperScale International, Fightertown, Aeromaster, Eagle Strike, FCM, Afterburner, and Custom Aeronautical Miniatures for producing model decals that made good reference material, and to Torsten Anft, Peter Davies, Lou Drendel, Paul Gilchrist, Dave Brown, and many others for their published works and photographs.

Requirements: Strike Fighters 2: North Atlantic.
 
 
Installation:
 
1: drop the Objects folder into your Strike Fighters 2 mod folder.
 
2: Enjoy how you will.
 
 
Known Issues:
 
1: VF-111 is missing the shark mouth.
A: Without the .out file to determine what the meshname for the nose is, I have decided to exclude this decal for the time being. I will add it once the .out is available.
 
 
2: The squadron markings don't look any different from one skin to the next.
A: In many cases, squadron markings didn't change for years. Some squadrons went from high-vis to early low-vis with drastic changes while others never altered their tail art. Some of these squadrons came along after the high-vis period was over and didn't so much as change Air Wings for an entire decade or more. If you see a repeat in squadron decals, that's because that's just how it was.

Thank you for downloading the corrective decal pack for the Thirdwire F-14A and F-14A_77. This pack was made to correct inaccurate or missing decals for the US Navy F-14 squadrons included in Strike Fighters 2: North Atlantic.

Requirements: Strike Fighters 2: North Atlantic.
 
 
Installation:
 
1: drop the Objects folder into your Strike Fighters 2 mod folder. Allow to overwrite as neccessary.
 
2: Enjoy how you will.
 
 
Known Issues:
 
1: VF-1 and VF-111 are still missing decals.
A: I know. VF-1 is missing it's fuselage stripe and VF-111 does not have the shark mouth. The VF-1 stripe runs along the forward fuselage and passes through a modex number that is placed noticably lower that the modex in other squadrons. This would have negated the generic qualities of these skins. The VF-111 shark mouth on the nose would require adding a new decal data bloc and experimenting with placement. I may yet add this decal later should modders be given access to the .out files with future patches.
 
1a: Squadron X is still missing decal Y.
A: Probably because they didn't have it during the time period modeled. VF-11 for example didn't have their squadron number on the ventral fins in the early 80's. They had it on the tail, and it's already present in the existing artwork.
 
 
2: A lot of these look like the decals I had already.
A: Yes. That just means that there wasn't any problem with the original decal.

This is a comprehensive collection of skins for the JASDF F-15J (as featured the SF2 F-15 super pack here). Eight different real-life squadrons are featured, each with authentic squadron patches and serial numbers, bringing this aircraft model up to the same level of fidelity as the American versions. (The existing aggressor skins look cool, certainly, but they are not representative of front-line aircraft.)
 
These skins are also compatible with the modernized F-15J Kai model (F-15J_97), so if you use both, just drag and drop the texture folders into either or both aircraft as you like.
Decals, texture modifications, hangar screen and loading photographs by Nengajou Aki. Packaged and uploaded by WhiteBoySamurai. The author has given permission to include these skins in freeware mods and future F-15 package updates.

SF2 Pakistan Viper Skin Pack
 
 
 
This is for SF2 Full Merge Installed updated to August 2011 patch.
 
The file contain the "skin" files of the following squadrons:
 
F-16A_Blk15_PAK:
 
9th MLU
9th SQ
11th MLU
11th SQ
85723
85728
TEF (Test and Evaluation Flight, same as OT&E in the USA)
 
F-16B_Blk15_PAK:
 
9th MLU
9th SQ
11th MLU
11th SQ
PAK (MLU test aircraft)
 
NOTE:
 
I name my aircraft as stated above. You need to go to the decal.ini and change the name to fit your own aircraft, otherwise the skin decals will not show up.
 
I tried to add the F16-005.bmp but I think the aircraft .LOD does not read it so I deleted it. The F-16A/B_Blk15 is still the old one. The new aircraft when MF decided to upload will read the F16-005, but only in .DDS file format.

If I missed anyone it is not intentional and you will be credited :)

F-16 Netz “Desert Viper”
------------------------
 
Requires: SF2 Israel!!
----------------------
 
 
A fictional 2 tone Desert skin for the Third Wire F-16.
 
I’ve based it on the original Israeli camouflage scheme & have unofficially assigned to
Israel’s 116 (Flying Wing Squadron)
 
However it could make a great mercenary skin or as a fun addition to those “Special Ops” for an air force & squadron of your own.
 
This is my first attempt at skinning the Netz & decided to keep it simple.
When time allows I’ll try something a little more authentic & perhaps a little different next time.
Notably, it may not be as good as those masterpieces that you are used to but
I hope you have fun with it anyway.
 
Enjoy :- )
