This is the NATO E-3 Components TCA,(USAF designated CT-49A) based on the 707-320. These aircraft are use for pilot training of the E-3 Component and for cargo and troop transport as needed. Three are operated by NATO and a total of 5 have ever flown under NATO colors. This mod includes a touch up of the OTAN skin found in the TMF E-3A release and decals for all 5 TCA's ever registered in Luxemborg. It also includes the Sentry cockpit to make it flyable, or if you have the 707-300 already you can drop the CT-49 skin in and it will work as well. I hope you enjoy!

This is The Mirage Factory's E-3A Sentry packaged as an individual aircraft for SF2 series. Included is a NATO skin by AmokFloo, the original 552d Flagship skin, and skins representing each squadron that flies the Sentry. Also included are decals for all NATO assigned aircraft and the Core 23 aircraft purchased by the USAF in the 70's. This should add some airborne eye candy to your installs, particularly Europe and the Middle East.
 
To install simply drop the folders into the correct areas of your mods folder.
 
Thank you to The Mirage Factory, AmokFloo, Dave and several others for their work on this project. i hope you enjoy this mod, and lets see how can form their favorite fighter on the wing long enough for a screenie!

This is a modification of the original F-4D LORAN by mppd and brought to Gen2 standard by Wrench. I merely added the parts that made it a LORAN bird to the stock F-4D_78 and added four skins and three units from my skin/decal pack. As with most of my main install this mod deals with the post Vietnam era to the end of the Cold War.
 
After involvement in Southeast Asia wound down in 1973 the ARN-92 LORAN Phantoms were sent to 3 units for the precision strike role. These were:
23d TFS 52d TFW Spangdahlem AB West Germany
457th TFS AFRES Carswell AFB TX
704th TFS AFRES Bergstrom AFB TX
 
This mod highlights these units in all tactical paint schemes used by the F-4.
Thank you for downloading this mod, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

EA-6B Prowler, for SF2 by Hawker, Agemmenon & 331KillerBee
 
= For SF2, Any and All (but designed for Full-5 Merged and/or SF2:NA) =
 
*It should work fine in non-SF2NA installs*
 
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. There are a couple of extra steps you'll be taking...
 
The package builds further on the original SF2 conversion done by 331KillerBee, and expands the usable skin set "a bit."
Included is a mix of early Hi-Viz markings, and later Lo-Viz markings. They've been diferentiated by a "guesstimated" transition year of 1985, when the LoViz automaticlly appears. The HiViz skins are listed normally; the LoViz have the "lo" suffix. Decal randomization is set to TRUE.
 
Skins contained herein are:
 
HiViz -
 
VAQ-132 "Scorpions"
VAQ-134 "Garudas"
VAQ-140 "Patriots"
VMAQ-2 "Death Jesters" (later version?)
VMAQ-2 "Playboys" (early - folder is called Playboy)
 
Lo-Viz -
 
VAQ-130lo "Zappers"
VAQ-135lo "Black Ravens"
VAQ-136lo "Guantlets"
VAQ-138lo "Yello Jackets"
VAQ-139lo "Cougars"
VMAQ-1 "Banshees"
 
 
The folder and main ini have been renamed "EA-6B_AH" (for Agemmnon & Hawker) to keep this aircraft seperate from the stock TW EA-6B version that comes with SF2:NA. To further differentiate it from the 3W model, on the Aircraft Selection Drop-down, it will read as
"EA-6B Prowler ICAP II" (KB's work -not mine!)
 
The install method being used here will cause you to do a few more steps =BEFORE= installing, but they are all outlined in the "To Install" section. The new carrier lines for SF2NA have been added, but for End Users without SF2NA, it should pose no issues for use. The earlier Game Engine will simply ignore them. You will still be able to set them for carrier usage via the mission editor or campaigns.
 
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!
 
With thanks to all the skinners and ini dancers to kept this old mod from disappearing! KB's original readme is included, as are one or two from the skin downloads.
 
Happy Jamming!

KA-6D Refuling Intruder, for SF2 by The Intruders
= For SF2, Any and All (meaning: Full-5 Merged and/or SF2:NA) =
 
This is a semi-complete mod, with almost everything needed to unzip and install. All aircraft inis, lods, new drop tank, etc are included. However ... the cockpit, other than an RWR bmp 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 to install to this mod. All I've suppled are the updated inis, and the single RWR bmp (that replaces the dash clock). You must also have the original 1stGen Download of this aricrat to install this Pak to. See "To Install" for more detailed instructions. And follow them to the letter!
 
A wealth of skins are included in the pak; pretty much ALL the 1stGen KA-6 skins I could find. Most, if not all, are the work of AllenJB & Paul Nortness. You'll have, in Full Color:
 
VA-35 (USS Nimitz?)
VA-35cs (USS Coral Sea)
VA-42 (USS Forestall)
VA-52 (USS Kitty Hawk)
VA-65 (USS Independence)
VA-65e (USS Enterprise)
VA-115 (USS Midway)
VA-128 (no ship listed)
VA-145 (USS Ranger)
 
In Lo-Viz markings:
 
VA-35lo (USS Saratoga)
VA-42lo (USS Forestall)
VA-52lo (USS Kitty Hawk)
VA-75lo (USS John F. Kennedy)
VA-85lo (USS Enterprise)
VA-95lo (USS Abraham Lincoln)
VA-176lo (no ship listed)
VA-185lo (USS Midway)
VA-196lo (USS Coral Sea)
 
All Lo-Viz skins have a default start date of 1985 (my best guess as to the date-of-transition. Feel free to correct, and post the actual date). Decal radiation is set to TRUE for all skins, due to they're extreamly low amount (4-5 Modex/BuNum) per aircraft.
 
All inis have been brought as close as possible to the latest (3/2012 and/or SF2:NA) standards. The FM remains untouched, but small changes in the Data INI add manually folding wings (Shift/9), and I've adjusted the auto deployment speeds for the refueling drogue. The avionics have also been slightly adjusted.
Again, there have been some statement added that may only work with installs patched to 3/2012 and/or SF2:NA. Use in other, earlier dated installs is at the End Users risk.
 
It should be noted, as AFR is NOT supported in-game, this aircraft mostly exists as "Eye Candy", to be seen parked on deck, airfield ramps, and just flying around turning jet fuel into noise.
 
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....
 
Happy Landings!

SF2 Korean War Era AD-4NL Skyraider (by MontyCZ)
 
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
This is an SF2/SF2NA upgraded version of my previously released AD-4NL Skyraider. It is designed to replace all my older versions for use in the SF2 environment.
 
This mod represents AD-4NL's from VC-35 "Night Hecklers". The squadron was deployed in various "Dets" of 2-4 aircraft aboard almost all USN Carriers during Korea.
 
The aircraft is fully carrier-capable, with all the SF2NA coding for deck 'parking'.
Skins are still in bmp format, I didn't bother converting them to jpg. Most markings are decals and Modex/BuNums are Randomized. BuNums are accurate for the aircraft variant depicted, but not for the actual ones used by this squadron, as I couldn't run them down; consider them 'generic' for this purpose.
 
All the necessary weapons, effects, sounds and etc are included, as is the NEW Skyraider cockpit by Dels.
Standard Animations keystrokes are used for the canopy (Shift/0) and wingfold (shift/9)
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, highly detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too. There is important information on Night Operations (what VC-35 specalized in)
You may consider this 'Ver.3' of the AD-4NL.
 
Good Hunting!

SF2 AD2/3 Skyraider
 
= For Your Korean War Flying Pleasure =
= For SF2, Full-4/5 Merged, (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*Note: you MUST have SF2:V as part of your merged install. This aircraft references the A-1H lod from SF2V,
and will =NOT= work without it.*
 
This is a mod of the 3rdWire A-1H Skyraider, to the earlier AD-2/3 version as used by the USN and USMC
during the Korean War. It was thrown together as an experiment some long time ago, and I thought you all would like to have it, "just because". The aircraft is supplied with 2 skins:
 
VA-35, "Black Panthers" US Navy, USS Leyte 1950 *
VMA-121 "Wolf Raiders", USMC, Pyongteak, 1950-53
 
This is a complete aircraft (well, minus the Stock Lod ™ of course!), with a new radar-equipped cockpit
by Dels. Skins are still in bmp format, making it usable in all SF2 merged game installs with access to the
A-1H.lod. The skins are new from my Home Grown Templates ™, in the 1950s Dark Gloss Navy Blue; all
markings are decals and are Randomized. BuNums are accurate for the aircraft variant depicted, but not for
the actual ones used by the squadrons; consider them 'generic' for that purpose.
The 'USMC50s' pilot figure, AN/APS-4 radar pod and engine sounds are included. The only weapon included is the 120 gallon drop tank. Bombs and rockets reference those WW2 units from the GunnyPak, and are NOT
included (simple edits can make the stock 3W ones usable, if one has Expansion Pak 1).
 
Wingfold is NOT activated, but the canopy is. Use the Usual Suspect (shift/0) to open and close it. All
lighting is hisotrically correct.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, highly detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them.
Also, give the "Notes" section a read too. Please.
 
Good Hunting!

*note: VA-35 may have actually used AD-4s as opposed 2/3... my references were a little vague on the point*

Republic F-84E Thunderjet 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 fine F-84E Thunderjet.
 
Skins provided are:
 
36th FBW, USAFE circa 1952 when commanded by Col. Robert L. Scott (yes, that guy!)
49th FBG, FEAF/5th AF, Tageu, Korea circa 1951/53 -yes, the entire group, all 3 squadrons:
7th FBS (Blue/White)
8th FBS (Yellow/Black)
9th FBS (Red/White)
 
All new, 100% historically correct serial and BuzzNumber decals have been created for all skins. It should be noted, that while those for the 36th FBW =ARE= for those aircraft from the 36th, I was unable to pin down exactly which squadron(s) in the Wing.
Some of the 49th FBW skins have stars (*) in their number lists (7th & 8th FBS) next to the ID number, denoting those with 100% positive identification; excepting the 9th FBS, where =ALL= have been 100% positively IDed as serving in that squadron. Those without stars (*) served in the 49th, but not to my full satisfaction as to which squadron. Rest assured, if I say they're correct for The Wing, they are.
 
Like the recently released F-84G, 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; it may need some adjustments as to other NATO/MAP users -which are welcomed!
 
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.
 
Good Hunting!
