Martin B-57A Canberra for the "Strike Fighters 2" Series
by Ahmed Junaid Raza
 
B.2 Cockpit with bombardier view by Daniel "Kessselbrut" Himmel
 
Original skin and ini work by pappychksix
 
Updated for SF2 by MiGBuster (July 2009)
 
 
The USAF ordered English Electric Canberras as a need to fill a mission gap - however the order could not be fulfilled in the UK so Martin was able to license build Canberras under the B-57 designation.
The B-57A looks similar to the Canberra B mk2 however there were actually many differences - not least the the Wright J65 engines. Due to the bubble canopy, targeting the 8 x 12.7mm Browning guns was found to be very difficult, and so the canopy and nose were totally redesigned into what became the B-57B.
 
Only 8 B-57As were built.

WARNING:
 
This MOD needs the stock .LOD files included in SF2 to work, so if you do not have SF2 the Mod will not work. The Mod will work if you have SF2 and other Series 2 games as a Merged Install.
 
 
INSTALL:
 
Just unzip and place the contents of Aircraft to the Aircraft Folder and Decals to the Decals Folder.
 
MOD LIMITS:
 
Thirdwire does not have a A-4G model, but there is A-4E_65. This is the closest match so I painted one up to look like a A-4G. There is no brake chute and the inflight refueling prob is straight, everything else is the same.
 
The wing tanks only have the fins mapped once so top and bottoms are the same. This will not be a problem with wrap-around paint schemes.
 
There are no Sidewinder rails for the outboard pylons.
 
I have put IRM class on the outboard pylons and they will work. There are very nice Winder rails on the inboard pylons.
 
 
I have only painted this Aircraft and have not created the model. It is Thirdwires stock model and I have only tinkered a little with renaming some files to make a stand alone A-4G. Plus added a few more weapons classes to the data file and a amended Userfile. Have not changed anything else.
 
THIS UPDATE;
 
This update is the same as the previous Mod but contains extra skins, plus I have corrected the Userlist file.

Upgrade of the F-86D Dog Sabre and F-86L Lima Sabre to SF2I standards. Includes new Med-Rez skins, damage textures, sounds, effects, and weapons.
 
Known Issues
 
The AI is really crappy about firing the Mighty Mouse Rockets as a rocket, so I borrowed Hgbns gun data for the Mighty Mouse. But still, the AI is horrible at using the Rocket so don't count on the AI to do a whole hell of a lot. This addon still needs tweaking for the AI to be effective, may require some cheating for the AI to use. I released this to hopefully make this pack better and useable against aircraft
 
So if you know how to make it better, PM me and I will test and update.

Israeli Air Force F-4E Kurnass 2000 for Strike Fighters 2
 
 
 
Features:
 
 
-Modernized cockpit and avionics
 
-Modernized weapons capability
 
-Most advanced version of the F-4E used by the Israeli Air Force
 
-Extensive RWR.TGA files and updated RWR.LST
 
-All weapons from load out file included ( most are from MGunny's Ordnance Shop II for SF2 )
 
 
 
INSTILATION: Drop files in to appropriate folders, override when asked to.
 
 
NOTE: Has only been tested/used in a merged install of ALL SF2 titles
 
 
Credit goes to Wrench and Third Wire for the original aircraft this has been modified from

F-4E Phantom II, RAAF


 
 

For SF2 (any and all, Merged or not)


 
This mod creates a 'stand alone' aircraft, using all in-house/in-game stock bits, to recreate the 24 Phantoms used (for a short time) by the RAAF.
 
All new, 100% historically accurate serial number decals have been created for all aircraft. Data ini edits change (essentially) nothing, but nationalizing the aircraft to Australia. A new userlist is incuded -- the only real changes are that I 'cheated' and extended the EndServiceYear to 1980. The canopy is active via an animation key; use shift/0 to open and close it.
 
As the standard, garden variety F-4E (no year suffix!) exists in all versions of the game, this mod should pose no issues whatsoever for those that (for whatever reason) have not merged their SF2 installs. These would be, in Real Life ™, the 1969 Model year Phantoms (hence, they're spurious A69 RAAF coding)
 
You can use this pak in one of two ways:
1) Stand alone aircraft (as designed), or
2) additional skin/decal set for the F-4E. If done as an additional skin, a decals ini just for that has been provided.
 
A new userlist has been created, extending the operational years past what is historical. (Australia is actually listed on the F-4E's userlist, but only for a very few years 70-73). They now are operational from 1970-1980.
 
As always, READ the enclosed readme for full, detailed instructions. This package has been broken down into the various folders that SF2 needs/requires/should have, to make it a LOT easier to install. Also, as usual, the expected 'Notes and Other Nonesense' comments by me.
 
Good Hunting Down Under!

B-47E SF-2 FIX
 
Hi Folks,
here isn't a full plane (that You can download at Colum5 here http://www.column5.us/aircraft.shtml)
but only a fix for removing white crosses and tailfin issue (no material assigned).
 
The input came from our friend Gaunt aka Imre, who reported me that noisy bug.
 
To complete the SF-2 standard conversion I added the userlist.ini (a very very simple task indeed).
 
You have only to put the included folder in you mod/objects/aircraft one and let overwrite.
 
This little work is dedicated to original makers of this fantastic plane (very good for an early '50 campaign).
 
Enjoy.

QF-100
 
I made this drone mostly as spin off of other F-100 skins that the new Hgbn temps urged me.
 
The daygloo paint is always pretty .....
 
There are 3 skins inside the pack: red, orange and red silver tailed (my favorite).
 
The fuel probe, the weapons and, of course, the pilot are removed.
 
There is also a test mission engage the drone on the north sea with an F-4F
 
(It comes towards you, so simply set the search radar at maximum range and wait).
 
I have to thank:
 
- Hgbn for his oustanding temps;
 
- The wrench for his cockipit edits;
 
- Storm for original SF-1 drone, I used as a guide
 
- ChampionsVA56 for hangar/loading screens, hoping he will include this in his huge
drone collection inside his great Mescalero proving ground.

****Aeronavale F-8E 'Crouze'****
 
You have downloaded the pride of the French Navy, or at least how I saw it...
 
This is the air-superiority version of the F-8E. Not a pound of air-to-ground. The French operated the 'Crouze' longer than any other operator of the type, and probably far longer than even they expected to. It's a wonderful aircraft and one of my favorites to fly.
 
I chose an overall grey livery, it was one that I saw in a book somewhere, and I don't know why the Aeronavale painted them that way, perhaps they ran out of white paint for the undersides, but it was one of the most intriguing looks I've ever seen on it. It didn't last long, they painted them this color around 1975-1978 and then went to their dark grey overall scheme, which has been on it since.

"ORIGINAL README"
 
SF2 F-4ETM_Simsek "Lightning"
 
I want to thank "Sundowner" for his gracious assistance and the permission to use his F-4E_2020 .LOD
 
Not the perfect version of the aircraft but I made this as my own 'Simsek' representation.
 
 
 
Short history of F-4ETM_Simsek:
 
 
"After the completion of the Terminator programme, the TuAF considered upgrading a follow-on batch of 48 more F-4Es Under the project 'Terminator II'.
T2 project was to emphasize on the increased air-to-air capability, the project was to involve more local content rather than using Israely hardware. However, the estimated cost was as high as $670 million and contract negotiations were cancelled in 2005.
After the cancellation, the Turkish Government decided to develope a national modernisation programme using the experience gained from the Terminator project.
 
Under project 'Simsek' (Lightning) started in February 2006 the TuAF aims to keep more squadron of F-4Es airworthy until the arrival of the F-35.
The 1st ASMC was the main contractor and subcontractor ASELSAN (Askeri Elektronik Sanayi - Military Electronics Industries) providing the avionics.
 
Simsek includes a structural and avionics upgrade of 16 F-4E Phantom IIs. Structural modifications included in the work will extend the service life until 2014 - 2016, while the avionics enhancement included integration of CDU-900Z control display units, MXF-484 radios, the LN-100GT INS/GPS navigation system, a cockpit TV system, AVTR, and IFF Mode 4.
 
The first two aircraft, designed as F-4ETM Simsek, were delivered to 112 Filo at Eskishir AB on March 3, 2010. All 16 upgraded aircraft are due to be delivered to 112 Filo, which was the first TuAF Phantom operator. The Simsek project is planned to be completed in early 2011.
 
 
 
To be use in SF2 Merged Installed.
 
Contain the following squadrons:
 
111_Filo_Panter
 
112_Filo_Bad Girl
112_Filo_Blue Simsek
112_Filo_Red Simsek
112_Filo_Turkish Female Warrior
 
132_Filo_Hancer
171_Filo_Korsan
172_Filo_Sahin

A-4G Skyhawk
(r1 - 1976 - VF-805)
 
 
This mod should ultimately cover the whole VF-805 career of the Australian A-4G, however since it started for a very specific project of mine, it will be released as-is and updated whenever (if ever) the rest is done.
For that reason, if you have an interest on the topic and are willing to correct or complete the set, do feel free to do so, it's a safer bet than waiting for the next release.
 
It has been built with/for SF2, it requires Thirdwire's A-4E and A-4F to work, there should be no other prerequisite.
 
r1 includes only the mid-70's skin, as my project focuses on the year 1976.
The skin and decals are as correct as I'm willing/able to do based on Thirdwire's skin.
All plane and serial numbers are correctly paired and historically correct (all planes crashed before 1976 are not present).
The only inaccuracy is the fact that some of the planes present were affected to VC-724, however, in case of conflict and to cope with attrition they would have been transferred to VF-805, hence their presence in this mod.
 
Gunrunner
 
 
 
Grey areas :
 
- On most pictures the A-4G in '76 had the area surrounding the gun muzzle painted black, on some, a square area on the fuselage was painted black and on other, nothing was painted black at all, no text gives any reason for that or precise reference, therefore it's been left as stock.
- Likewise, most sources claim some A-4G were not fitted with guns, without providing the serial number of those planes or whether this was a temporary or permanent change; Moreover, I couldn't find photographic evidence of a gunless A-4G.
- The current INI is a hybrid of A-4E and A-4F, uses an A-4F cockpit with A-4E avionics, I lack sources and will to do any better at the moment, it will have to do.
 
 
Optionnally, you can add VF-805 "Checkerboards" to your SquadronList.ini, however it is only a nicety and the skin doesn't rely on it.
 
[squadronxxx]
Name=RAN_805
DisplayName=805 Sq. "Checkerboards"
Nation=AustralianNavy
 
 
TO DO :
 
- Replace the antennas by accurate ones.
- Have missile rails for outer pylons use with Sidewinders.
- Add the late 60's VF-805 skin (without checkerboard).
- Add the early 70's VF-805 skin (with checkerboard on the rudder).
- Add the late 70's VF-805 skin (grey camo with knight).

P-2H "Neptune" Skins/Decals and Ini Update Pak


 

-- For SF2, Any & All --


 
This is a mod of the original P-2H (P2V-7) released by Tracker and the Argentine Modders Group, incorporating some tweeks perfomred by ChampionsVA56
You do NOT need to original download, but if you want the COAN skins, you'll need it to add them.
 
All inis, lods, etc, and 3 new skin and decal sets are provided. The inis have been 'adjusted' back to original USN state, with a completely new UserList.ini, descripting the different countries that used this late-model Neptune. (NOTE: RAF is not listed, as they used only earlier models, with the gun turrets. Hopefully, I also got the users & years farily close, too)
 
Skins included in this set are:
 
VP-18 "Flying Phantoms", NAS Jacksonville as seen during the Cuban Missile Crisis
 
VP-65 "Tridents", NAS Point Magu, in the mid/late 1960s through the 1970s
 
VP-69 "Totems", NAS Whidbey Island, in the 1970s *
 
(* revamped version of pappychksix's, now with decals)
 
All new decals are included, many with historically matching BuNums-to-Modex numbers (wherever possible, and the information was discoverable). The Basic Skins ™ for the USN Gull Gray/White and Seaplane Gray and White, can be used for many other countries, simply by creating new skin folders, copying the relevant files, and creating new textureset and decals inis that reference the proper markings and nationality.
 
A new weapon is included; the Mk.44 lightweight torpedo (note: it needs a new lod, as it's using the Mk.13 which is too long, but it works just fine!!). Loadouts have been corrected, with some reengineering of mounting points. Not perfect, but very workable.
Other ini edits use Champ's landing gear & light fix, and I've replaced the pilot figures with the stock 'Prop_Pilot' with the baseball cap. The engine sound has also been replaced, and supplied. It's not what I consider a perfect match, but it's seems what should be farily close.
 
As always, =READ= the enclosed readme for full, detailed instructions. This package has been broken down into the various folders that SF2 needs, to make it a LOT easier to install.
 
Warning Note: If installing fresh, do not use the original download;s inis, use these =ONLY=!!! If/when installing the COAN skins, use =ONLY= the skins, and nothing else!! You will mess things up severly, and have to start completly over.
 
Happy Landings!

Grumman F-11F-1 Tiger
 
-- For SF2, Any and All --
 
This is an upgrade package of the F-11F by Fleet Defender & Co (originally released in 2005). All the skins and decals have been updated, with many new ones created. Ini edits fix the overbright landing light; other tweeks add new AI sections, place weapons more centered on the pylons, round count corrected, and some other minor adjustments. A new avionics ini is included, that adds the radar ranging gunsight. The cockpit used is the stock A-4B Skyhawk, which is available in all versions of SF2, excepting stand-alone SF2:I mods folders. Merged installs should have no issues whatsomever. The lead-computing gunsight statements have also been added.
 
4 skins and decals are included in this pak (all that I could find!). They are:
 
VA-156 (which became VF-111 in 1959)
VF-21
VF-33
VF-111
 
Skins are by various artists, hopefully listed (correctly!) in the Credits below. Several of the skins were repainted, from a partial template I created, to remove the painted on Modex numbers. These are now all decals.
 
Weapons included are just the 150 gallon drop tank; all others use stock in-game items.
I've added several Mission profiles that I'm sure the actual aircraft did NOT perform (Strike, CAS, Armed Recon, and Anti-Ship). They're there for the playability factor. If you don't want to perform them, just edit them out of the data ini.
 
As always, READ the enclosed readme for full, detailed instructions. This package has been broken down into the various folders that SF2 needs/requires/should have, to make it a LOT easier to install. Also, as usual, the expected 'Notes and Other Nonesense' comments by me.
A full credits listing of those that worked on it, or contributed parts are below, and in the original release readme included.

MDD F-4K Phantom (FG.1) Royal Navy/Royal Air Force
 
-- For SF2, Full-4 Merged (Prefered) and/or SF2:E ONLY!!! --
 
As stated above, you =MUST= have either a Full-4 Merged install, or at the VERY LEAST SF2:E to make use of this mod package, as it references all stock items for the aircraft and cockpit that are =ONLY= found in SF2E or Full4 Merged game installs; is uses the F-4M lods for the aircraft and cockpit, as well as the various other inis. Some, however, ARE supplied, as I made adjustments and so forth.
 
This package represents F-4K/FG.1 Phantoms of the Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm, and later as serving in the RAF
 
Skins and decals in the pak are for:
 
767 Squadron, FAA (?Land based in UK and The Continent?)*
892 Squadron, FAA (aboard HMS Ark Royal)*
"Generic" RAF Camo (stock skin; uses stock decals for 19 Squadron)
111 Squadron RAF (Barley Gray)**
 
*Skins and decals were created by Sundowner some years ago
 
**maybe non-historical; it's possible that 111 used FG.1s upgraded to FG.2, with addition of the RWR 'box' on fin. But the skin is too nice to let go!
 
All weapons used are stock in-game items. Minor data ini edits allow for carrier useage, and a maunaly operated canopy. Use Shift/0 to open and close. A new artwork loading screen is also included.
Remember: this is the early model, withOUT the ECM/RWR fairings on the tail, and no RWR of any kind!! So watch you be-hinds!!
 
As always, READ the enclosed readme for full, detailed instructions. This package has been broken down into the various folders that SF2 needs/requires/should have, to make it a LOT easier to install.

This pack includes the updated F-4M_TMF that I missed from the previous packs .

Dont forget that you need pack1 to get the sounds/decals etc.

Douglas A4D-1 (A-4A) Skyhawk
- For SF2 (Any and All, but Full-4 Merged Prefered*) -
 
*Note: this makes use of the A-4B lods, that are stock in most installs (SF2 & SF2:V).These and the cockpit may not be available in un-mergerd, stand alone SF2:E and most definately not in SF2:I. Hence, the 'Full-4 Merged Prefered' tag.*
 
The decal sets are taken from the various 1stGen mods of the A-4A, and where necessary I've redone the skin bits, using SF2 A-4B skins to bring them to SF2 standards.
This package included 4 skin and decal sets:
 
VA-43 Challangers (Gitmo, 59)
VA-72 Bluehawks (1956)
VA-93 Blue Blazers (1956)
VMA-224 Bengals (MCAS El Toro, 1957)
 
The VA-72 is my original from (whenever); the others were done by some talented folk I've not be able to ID -- as I lost the original readmes (if any). So, the credit is theirs for those skins/decals. I just edited things to fit. Where needed, created new decals.
Decal randomization is set to TRUE, so make sure you're at least at the July 2011 patch level (or whichever one it is...).
 
Data ini edits remove the refueling probe. The inis included herein are the latest, as of the August 2011 patch. All loadouts are stock ala the A-4B. The canopy is activated via manual animation, use Shift/0 to open and close. The landing light has also been added.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them .... Of course, the usual "Notes" section. These will give you a nice mid-1950s collection of USN Light Strike aircraft for use in various "hot spots" of the time period.
 
Catch the 3 Wire!

NOTE:
with the release of the DLC A-4A, this mod became moot. However, the skins and decals can easily be adapted for use on that DLC.

Republic F-84C Thunderjet, 59th FIS, 33 FIW (by RussoUK)
=For SF2, Any and All (Full-4 Merged Reccomended/Preferred,etc)
 
*Expansion Pak 1 may be necessary for WW2 era weapons, if not using the GunnyPak*
 
Some modifications, tweeks, and general fiddlating on Russo's early Thunderjet.
AKA: revamping of my very old F-84B/C mod, refocused on just the C model (Bs did a lot of crashing and self-disassembly, and wound up back at the factory, or on 'fire training')
 
Serial/Buzz number are 100% correct for the 33rd FIW; those marked in the Numbers.lst with a star (*) have 100% positively IDed as being from the 59th FIS. All others are, again, from the 33rd, but was unable to 'attach' them to any specific squadron(s) within The Wing. Decal radomazation is set to "TRUE"
 
Like the recently released F-84E & G, it has a new 'experimental' SF2-level flight model, uses the same Sabre drop tanks, and uses the same manual keyed animation (surprise! Shift/0) to open and close the canopy. It also uses the same sound file, not included. The same 'generic-style' hangar screen from the G is included as well. A userlist is included; as these were ONLY used by the USAF, it may be moot!
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them!! As always, the usual "Notes" section for other interestering details and stuff.

Douglas EB-66C Destroyer Update Pak  (Ver.2)                          8/16/2019
= For SF2, Any & All =
This is an update/upgrade/Remod of my 2013 pack. This is considered to be "version 2.0" of the EB-66C Destroyer ELINT/Escort Jammer aircraft. It it designed to replace, in total the earlier package from August 2013. If you have the original pack, you are instructed to delete it completly (aircraft, decals, and all), as this one has some major imporvements.
This remod pack contains 2 skins:
41st TEWS, 355th TFW, PACAF, Takhli RTAFB, mid-60s thru 1974-ish (RC tail code)
39th TEWS, 36th TFW, USAFE, Spangdahelm AB 1969-73 (JN tail code)
Both are new, and are (hopefully!) in the correct SEA 3-tone camoflague colors. 
All NEW replacement serial number decals were created. Both skins use a pool of 36 100% historical serial numbers. As only 36 of these aircraft were built (in one block of 30 and a second of 6) it was a easy job. While totaly accurate in nature, the 36 numbers are not representative of individual aircraft of any unit or squadrons that used the EB-66C (other than by random happenstance). Decal randomization is TRUE.
As with the other B-66 mods, a heavily edited cockpit designed to 'fit' within the existing canopy framing is included. Avionics have been upgraded with new jammers, chaff dispensers, and so forth. This aircraft carries =NO= offensive weapons, or defensive guns. FLY ACCORDINGLY!!! A small modification to the data ini also allows for carrying external jammer pods & chaff dispensers in place of the drop tanks.
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. Please read them! See "Change Log" in the Notes section for a full-ish list of what's been, well, changed!
Happy SAM Dodging!!
