SF2 F-8H Crusader, Philippines Air Force Pak 10/2/2015
= For SF2 ONLY, Full-4/5 Merged (Full 5 Reccomended/Preferred) =
**Note: This mod references all stock items, from the aircraft & cockpit lods themselves, to sounds, pilots and weapons. You =MUST= have the stock 3rd Wire F-8H Crusader as part of your merged install, from whichever game it originates from, to make full use of this mod**
Some mods of the stock 3W F-8H Crusader recreates the 25 used by the Philippines Air Force from 1978 thru 1988. This is a stand alone, fully "nationalized" version for PAF usage only.
Serial numbers are 100% historicaly accurate. All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. Markings represent the 7th TFS of the 5th TFW, PAF.
The Standard Animation Keystrokes work the canopy (Shift/0) and Wingfold (Shift/9). The aircraft is no longer carrier certified, but the hook remains.
When in game, you'll see
F-8H Crusader (PhAF)
on the Aircraft Selection Drop down menu.
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!! The "Notes" section may also make for interestering reading, and such.
Happy Landings!!

KC-97G Stratofreighter
The KC-97 Stratofreighter was an aerial refueling tanker variant of the C-97 Stratofreighter (which was itself based on the Boeing B-29 Superfortress), greatly modified with all the necessary tanks, plumbing, and "flying boom." The cavernous upper deck was capable of accommodating oversize cargo accessed through a very large right-side door. In addition, transferrable jet fuel was contained in tanks on the lower deck (G-L models). Both decks were heated and pressurized for high altitude operations.
Notes:
serial numbers, while generic in nature, ARE for the model depicted (KC-97G). Decal randomization is true. All markings are decals.
Damage texture is in DDS.
End Service Year is 'best guess' (and longer than historical), but will cover until/if KC-97L is built and released.
Crew entry door is operated by the Standard Animation Keystroke , Shift/0 (zero). The standard bomb bay keystorke, Cntl/0 (oh) operates the refueling boom.

Boeing B-47B
The Boeing B-47 Stratojet was a long range, six-engine, turbojet-powered strategic bomber designed to fly at high subsonic speed and at high altitude to avoid enemy interceptor aircraft.
The B-47's primary mission was to drop nuclear bombs on the Soviet Union. With its engines carried in nacelles under the swept wing, the B-47 was a major innovation in post-World War II
combat jet design, and contributed to the development of modern jet airliners.
The B-47 entered service with the United States Air Force's Strategic Air Command (SAC) in 1951.
It never saw combat as a bomber, but was a mainstay of SAC's bomber strength during the late 1950s and early 1960s,
and remained in use as a bomber until 1965. It was also adapted to a number of other missions, including photographic reconnaissance,
electronic intelligence and weather reconnaissance, remaining in service as a reconnaissance aircraft until 1969 and as a testbed until 1977.

EA-6A Electric Intruder, for SF2, by The Intruders
= For SF2, Any and All (but designed for Full-5 Merged and/or SF2:NA) =
*Note: operation era would be towards the end of the Vietnam War*
REMINDER: you =MUST= install this update package to the original download. The location URL and Full instructions , are below in the "To Install" section. It is also HIGHLY reccomended you read this entire document, after unzipping but BEFORE installing over the original download.
This is a semi-complete mod, with almost everything needed to unzip and install. All aircraft inis, lods, new drop tank, the ALQ-76 jammer pod (with corrected start date) etc are included (uses the same drop tank as the KA-6D recently uploaded).
However, the cockpit, is =NOT=!! You'll have to supply your own, as outlined in posts on the CA Message Boards. You must also have 1stGen WoV or WoE in your possession to extract the necessary cockpit parts =FROM= to install to this mod. All I've suppled are the updated inis, and the single RWR bmp (that replaces the dash clock).
Skins suppled are:
VMCJ-1
VMCJ-2 (early)
VMCJ-2 (late, black tail)
VAQ-33
VAQ-209
As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. Please read them! The Notes section contains further details, descriptions, elightenments, illuminations, and so forth. Be good to read them, too.
No, seriously ... unzip this archive and =READ= everything first!!! It's exceptionly important you do so....and equally important, to follow the instructions exactly as I've given them to you!
Full credits to the originators, hopefully all are listed in the 'Credits' section.
Good Hunting!

C-17 Globemaster III Upgrade
by daddyairplanes
This mod upgrades Veltro2k's C-17 Globemaster III to incorporate all tactical USAF and all foreign users. It has skins for all 9 C-17 operators as well as time specific in the USAF and a couple of fictional skins (15 in all). The base skin has been updated by Flogger23 and myself, and ini updated by yours truly.
***************************** Installation: ********************************
unzip, copy to mods folder, allow overwrite if needed.
*****************************Known Issues********************************
-The cockpit is nonexistant. These are mainly as AI and the mission set for transports is limited so this will probably not be fixed soon
-while cargo statements are included in the data.ini, there is a wall at the back of the cargo bay that prevents the interior from being seen. If this is remodeled, i will include cargo "weapons" and tweek the positions.
-the Qatar VIP skin does not have "Qatar" decal on the bottom. It left a mark on the right side as a tga and was too screwy looking being on the seam of the skin so i left it off.
*********************Contibutors and Thanks to: ********************
Veltro2K- created the original model
Flogger23- reworked the skin for better looking panel lines and other features
Lazarus1177- pointing out to use jpeg rather than bmp. Learn something new everyday
daddyairplanes- tga work, ini editting, stubborn determination to see more than just one unit on a skin
airliners.net- loading and hangar screens
Dave, Muesli, Flogger23, Viggen, Lazarus1177, allenjb42- other sets of eyes to catch what i screwed up on
I hope you enjoy this mod and airlift the troops right to the enemies doorstep.

Presenting ... The DC-10-30 Airliner! This bird is created from Marcfighters KC-10 model and some ini editing by yours truly to remove the AAR equipment. in this version the aircraft is shown as many airlines flew her in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. This supersedes the previous version.
INCLUDED
DC-10-30 aircraft (template included) with 70s,80s and 90s skins
decals for same
flight folder to modify nations and formation inis
terrain folders to modify limited nations list for all stock terrains
folders to adjust ODS, NF5 and SF2NA Exp Pack
CREDITS
Marcfighters............. KC-10 physical model
daddyairplanes........ conversion, new skin and template, decal work and ini edits
Kesselbrut................. for his C-130J-30_cockpit
THANKS TO
TK ... for the base game
Marcfighters ... for allowing me to run amok with his old baby
Wrench, eburger68, Gepard, and the overall community ... for much advise and technical
support on this project
slartibarfast, viggen, macelena and others who crash tested this thing for me
******************************WARNING*******************************************************************************
this bird is rather old, and has its limitations. it is not meant for flying on recon missions,
but rather mainly for eye candy and somethin to possibly intercept or escort. while you CAN
fly it, that does NOT MEAN YOU SHOULD. that said buyer beware all quirks of this bird like the pitch
down on gear and flap retractions and the non moving control surfaces.
****************************USE OF THIS MOD*************************************************************************
I will allow fairly free use of this mod in any other mod. What i (at this time) request is that you do not
create a new skin based airline for it. the airlines are on as tga so that many airlines show up at one time.
A seperate say "Pan Am" skin will ruin the effect and there will be 8-9 Pan Am birds on the tarmac. Any airline
you would like to see, pm me and i will either tell you how to make it or time allowing make it and add in. Thank
you.
again, thank you for downloading this and i hope you enjoy it

CFM E-3 Sentrys
by daddyairplanes
This mod adjusts Veltro2k's E-3D release to add all 3 E-3 versions that used CFM-56 engines. Included are the RAF's D model, French AF's F model and Royal Saudi AF's A model.
Installation
Unzip. Install into desired mod molder. Allow merging and overwrites
Known Issues
No there is not an ESM kit for the E-3F at this time. If a 3d modeller is able to assist in the future one may be added via fakepilot. However the French birds are the only ones to use that bit of equipment, so it is somewhat low priority.
Aircraft Included
Sentry AEW.1 (E-3D), E-3F Sentry and E-3A Sentry RSAF
Credits
Veltro2k: original model and original hangar screen for the E-3D
daddyairplanes: ini edit to create E-3A_RSAF and E-3F, new hangars for mentioned aircraft based on original in E-3D, tga and ini edit work. improved D model skin and tga
TK: the original moddable game
Dave, eburger68: technical consultations on in game behavior
I hope you enjoy this humble little mod.
