SF2 F-5A 'Freedom Fighter' by The Mirage Factory 10/12/2025
-For SF2 =ONLY= (Any & All, Full 4/5 Merged Recommended)
This is a remod of The Mirage Factory's F-5A "Freedom Fighter" for use in SF2. I've collected almost all the skins made for it since in original release in 2005. This was done simply because it hadn't been done yet, AND I needed F-5s for several of the countries on the "Iberian Peninsula/Northwest Africa" terrain recently released. You all can consider this yet another 1stGen Salvage Operation (tm). It will in =NO= way conflict with the (BEYOND!) excellent work done by Sophocles & Team on their F-5 series of aircraft.
Having collected the various bits for this aircraft mod, you'll find in this package, in no particular order (although nations with multiple paint jobs do have specific Start Date = statements) the following:
USAF:
4441st CCTS (NMF) (1964 <)
4441st CCTS (SEA Camo) (<1970) *a somewhat what-if. see note on skin texture set ini*
Greece:
341 Sqdn (NMF) <1965
341 Sqdn (SEA) <1974
343 Sqdn (Aegean Blue) <1985
343 Sqdn (Ghost) <1996
Korea (South):
112th FS (NMF) <1965
112th FS (SEA Camo) <1970
Vietnam (South):
522nd FS, VNAF <1967
Spain:
Ala 21, Esc 212 (NMF) <1968
Ala 21, Esc 212 3-Tone Camo <1975
Turkey:
152 Filo (NMF) <1966
152 Filo (SEA Camo) <1975
Morocco:
Escadron Borak <1966 (3 tone desert)
All skins remain in their original bmp format, at 1024x1024. All markings are decals, with only the VNAF having painted on wing insignia and squadron fuselage band. All aircraft have 24 historically accurate serial numbers; again excepting VNAF which only has 16. Decal randomization is TRUE. While 100% correct for the countries represented, I could not pin down the actual squadron usages. So, they should be considered 'Generic' in that respect. Each respective country uses the same "pool" of numbers for all of their skins. The exception is the later SEA camo RoKAF, which uses a different style.
A new pilot figure and ejection seat are included. All sounds, effects and weapons use Stock In-Game (tm) 3rd Wire items. This simplifies matter greatly. The TMF original wingtip and center line drop tanks are included, in their original colorations.
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!!! Please read the Notes section for other useless information, and (hopefully) full credits.
Please also take note of changes in the Standard Disclaimer in the "Legal BS" section at the bottom.
Happy Landings!

Royal Danish Air Force Super Sabres.
This mod is not to compete with the previous Hun packs. It is just my different approach. So before removing/overwriting some older stuff, test this one - as you may not like it.
Basic modding skills are required to run this mod. (copy/paste, mod folder structure, etc.)
Install:
Copy and paste specific folders into the correct destination.
A fake pilot is required to run this mod. Also, the Thirdwire F-100 cockpit is required from the original game.
Fuel tanks- not to be afraid. Overwrite or leave it.
Tanks are just ini files. The mod uses tanks that are part of an aircraft lod.
Yes, again, Sabres.
But I made this revamp to fix what I wanted to fix for some time already in old models..plus a few new things.
In the game, under a prefix.KDF. * You will find Super Sabre F-100D '59 that served in the Royal Danish Air Force.
* Kongelige Danske Flyvevåbnet
I fixed some lines in data files a little - collision points and hitboxes. Edited weapon stations. But I believe that the flight model could be improved for this aircraft. But this is not my cup of coffee.
All skins are in 3072x3072 format, based on new templates. You can easily resize as needed.
Decals represent historically correct serial numbers assigned to aircraft during their service in the Danish Air Force, for a specific year, squadron, etc.
New bump maps to work with new skins.
Credits.
TW - the original old model of F-100
Yours truly - mambo jumbo like skins, decals, research...
I have no idea who made the pilot model; it is an old model used almost everywhere.
All weapons by Ravenclaw, you should have them by now, but I have included what is listed in loadout.ini.
Aero-5b launcher for AGM-12 is made by me.
As a small extra, I sneaked in a 4-tube training launcher for Mk40, which I made, based on some poor photos,
Have fun.

Expect the unexpected.
Live long and prosper.

SF2 A-7P Corsair II (TMF) FAP Pack 8/4/2025
-For SF2, Any and All (Full 5 Merged Suggested)
This is a rebuild of TMF's A-7A Corsair II to the A-7P versions as used by the Portuguese Air Force's No. 302 Squadron "Falcons". This, like the Real Life (tm) version, uses the "A" body upgraded with "E" bits. This includes the cockpit and avionics. That is to say, I've (re)used the TMF A-7E cockpit and avionics for this mod. If, for whatever reason, you dislike the TMF cockpit, I've provided the inis and instructions herein to switch over to the stock 3W A-7E_78 cockpit and avionics inis. So, you'll need whichever SF2 game version gave us the A-7E_78 (disremember which one)
This mod is set up and labeled to cause =NO= conflicts with the 3rdWire DLC A-7P, as this carries a unique name (see below). Skins remain in their original bmp format, in their original size and resolution. All markings are decals. Decal Randomization is TRUE. The skin is provided with 18 historically correct serial number decals. The necessary items provided are drop tanks and pilot seat. Weapons used are all stock in-game items. If I missed anything, PLEASE let me know and I'll try to get it fixed.
.
The canopy operates with the Standard Animations Keystroke (tm), Shift/0 (zero). The wing fold is operated by Shift/9 (nine). The refueling probe operates with the Shift/3 (three) keystroke.
When in-game, on the Aircraft Selection Drop down you'll see:
A-7P Corsair II (TMF)
So you can't mistake it for anything other than what it is. This will also differentialize THIS one from the Third Wire DLC, if you happen to have it.
As always fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. The original readme is included. The 'Change Log' is, of course, in the Notes section below.
Good Hunting & Happy Landings!

B-52D Pacer Plank
This mod covers the last few years of the B-52Ds service. In 1976, the Pacer Plank upgrade was carried
out by the USAF to reskin the wings of approximately 60 B-52Ds. A further twenty were found to be in good
enough condition to continue service along side the upgraded BUFFs. In addition, the GBU-15 was tested on
several of the upgraded BUFFs, giving an early precision guided weapon capability. Finally, the D models
retained the ability through the end of their careers to carry 4 nuclear weapons, although this was rarely
used.
Included
BD_PP aircraft, decals for the 4 Wings that operated this variant, weapons, sounds and effects
Installation
unzip, add to mod folder of choice. no overwrite should occur. requires SF2 Vietnam or Europe for B-52D model
Notes
1. While tested, the D model never used the GBU-15 in combat. It was also tested with the short pylons, which are not
available here. In light of this and the fact that the Hound Dog pylons are permanent, I set it up to work with those.
There is a value in plinking the Defenses from 10 miles out, then plastering a runway with 80+ bombs minutes moments later.
it is after all, a game. Have a little fun.
2. Water injection on takeoff is simulated by making an "afterburner" that operates from 98-100%. Try not to go above 96%
throttle after take off
