This is actually an EA-6B Prowler scheme that was deployed to Bagram AB, Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom, and adapted for the EA-18G Growler.
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

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.
Additional Credits:
Migbuster for his great viper templates.
If I missed anyone it is not intentional and you will be credited :)
Cheers!

Thanks to Afterburner Decals for their reference image used to create this skin.
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 :- )

This skin is designed for The Mirage Factory F-14B Tomcat.
The contained paint scheme is representative of the Be-Devilers shortly after they received the F-14A+ Tomcat, roughly around the 1988 timeframe. Looking at pictures of the Be-Devilers Turkeys from 1988-1991, I found the birds to be consistently painted in a lighter grey, which I found was similar to Dave's VF-41 MiG killers, so giving credit where it's due: I used his skin as the starting point. VF-74's Tomcats, during this timeframe, were very lo-viz; A/C #101 would eventually wear a red lightning bolt later on (and the Olympic rings during ODS). I also made the F110 "turkey feathers" a bit shinier, as the majority of the pictures I've seen of VF-74's F-14A+'s between 1988 and 1990 have pretty darn shiny feathers.
VF-74 Be-Devilers were one of the later squadrons to receive the Tomcat, beginning transition from the F-4S in 1983. Aboard the USS Saratoga, VF-74 gained notoriety when their aircraft were assigned to force down a hijacked Egypt Air Boeing 737 in 1985 (this incident inspiring a similar scene in the movie Executive Decision). In 1988, VF-74 and VF-103 received the F-14A-Plus Tomcat, and flew these aircraft during Operation Desert Storm. Following the Navy's decision to draw down their Tomcat fleet (going from two squadrons to one per carrier) VF-74 wound up shore-side, directly under the command of COMFITWINGLANT, while their sister squadron (VF-103 Sluggers), whose Tomcats were equipped with TARPS, continued to go on cruise. The Be-Devilers became an aggressor squadron starting in 1993, flying against both Navy and Air Force blue forces during exercises and training. The following year, the Be-Devilers made one last cruise before being disestablished on 30 April, 1994.
I was able to find 10 of the aircraft which served with VF-74 in the late 1980s-ODS. (Thanks also to EricJ for assistance here). Aircraft found herein:
162925 AA100
162919 AA101
161434 AA102
162923 AA103
162924 AA104
163221 AA105
161435 AA106
161432 AA107
161870 AA110
163408 AA111
Install Instructions:
Open your Strike Fighters 2 Mod Folder
Drag the "Objects" file from VF-74 archive into the base mod folder (e.g. StrikeFighters2 Europe). I have the folder set up so it should go to the right place. If you don't trust that, navigate through Objects->Aircraft->F-14B and drag the VF74 folder into the aircraft folder. Then, go back, get to decals, and drop the VF74 decal file into your F-14B Decal folder.
Texture Set is:
