Hawker Siddeley HS 748
The Hawker Siddeley HS 748 is a medium-sized turboprop airliner originally designed by the British firm Avro in the late 1950s as a replacement for the aging DC-3s then in widespread service as feederliners. Avro concentrated on performance, notably for STOL operations, and found a dedicated market. 380 aircraft were built by Hawker Siddeley. A larger development, the BAe ATP, attempted to compete with the de Havilland Canada Dash 8 but saw a limited production run.The 748 Series 1 and Series 2 were also licence-produced in India by Hindustan Aeronautics (HAL) as the HAL-748. HAL built 89 aircraft in India, 72 for the Indian Air Force and 17 for the Indian Airlines Corporation.
This model was going to be released as eye candy with the Indo-Pak MOD and has been sitting on my hard drive for at least a year and a half, so it will be released as is since source file was lost.
Model: Veltro2k
Cockpit: Kesselbrut
install in Objects/aircraft folder
THIS MODEL IS ONLY TO BE DISTRIBUTED AS FREEWARE AND IN NO OTHER CIRCUMSTANCE SHALL IT BE USED, EVEN IN PART OF ANYTHING THAT IS PAYWARE.
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE COMBAT ACE MODDERS AGREEMENT
The English Electric Canberra is a British first-generation jet-powered light bomber manufactured in large numbers through the 1950s. The Canberra could fly at a higher altitude than any other bomber through the 1950s and set a world altitude record of 70,310 ft (21,430 m) in 1957. Due to its ability to evade the early jet interceptors, and its significant performance advancement over contemporary piston-engined bombers, the Canberra was a popular export product and served with many nations.
Canberra B Mk.2 was the first production version, crew increased to three with addition of bomb aimer, Avon R.A.3 engines with 6,500 lbf (28.91 kN) of thrust, wingtip fuel tanks. 418 built by English Electric (208), Avro (75), Handley Page (75) and Short Brothers & Harlan (60) including eight for export (Australia, United States and Venezuela).

@ paulopanz
In order to provide an urgent counter to the air incursions, with Saudi towns close to the border being bombed by Egyptian aircraft, an additional interim contract, called "Magic Carpet", was placed in March 1966 for the supply of six ex-RAF Lightnings (four F.2s and two T.4 trainers, redesignated F.52 and T.54 respectively), six Hawker Hunters, two air defence radars and a number of Thunderbird surface-to-air missiles.The "Magic Carpet" Lightnings were delivered to Saudi Arabia in July 1966, with an additional F.52 being delivered in May 1967 to replace a Lightning lost in an accident.
Lightning F.52 Slightly modified ex-RAF F.2 single-seat fighters for export to Saudi Arabia (5 converted - 4 in service).
Lightning F.53, otherwise known as the Export Lightning, developed as a private venture by BAC; while the Lighning had originated as an interception aircraft, this version was to have a multirole capability for quickly interchanging between interception, reconnaissance, and ground-attack duties.The F.53 was based on the F.6 airframe and avionics, including the large ventral fuel tank, cambered wing and overwing pylons for drop tanks of the F.6, but incorporated an additional pair of hardpoints under the outer wing. These hardpoints could be fitted with pylons for air-to-ground ordnance, including two 1,000 lb (450 kg) bombs or four SNEB rocket pods each carrying 18 68 mm rockets. A gun pack carrying two ADEN cannon and 120 rounds each could replace the forward part of the ventral fuel tank.[20][nb 1] Alternative, interchangeable packs in the forward fuselage carried two Firestreak missiles, two Red Top missiles, twin retractable launchers for 44× 2-inch rockets, or a reconnaissance pod fitted with five 70 mm Type 360 Vinten cameras. (35 to RSAF; 12 to KAF)
WHAT's IN:
- 2 planes (F.52 from Spinners & F.53 from Tk/TW) enhanced
- 3 RSAF New Silver Skins for F.52 & decalsets
- 5 RSAF New Silver Skins for F.53 & decalsets
- 1 RSAF Camo redone from J. Fox for F.53 & decalset
- 3 KUAF New Silver Skins for F.53 & decalsets
- sounds, pilot etc.
OPERATIONS:
- canopy openable Key=10 with auto closing
CREDITS:
- Tk/Tw for the plane (Exp. 2)
- Spinners for original F.52 data
- James Fox for F.53 Camo Skin base
- Paulopanz skins, decals, edits
INSTALL:
- You need Exp. 2 to work
- put objects & sounds folders in your mod folder and overwrite
Enjoy.

Indian Air Force Hawker Hunter F.56, F.56A mod for SF2 full merged
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hawker Hunter fighter bomber variants as used by the Indian Air Force . Package does not contains any aircraft or Cockpit LODs. The pack has been tested on a full merge install ( SF2, SF2E,SF2V, SF2I, Exp Pack 1, Exp pack 2, SF2NA). May not work properly on other installs( will atleast need SF2E to work)
Package contains skins and decals to represent all Indian Air force Hawker F.56 and F.56A Squadrons. Actual Indian AF Hunter Serial number & squadron decals included(selectable in the loadout screen).
IAF Hunter F.56 - RAF Hunter F.6
IAF Hunter F.56A - RAF Hunter FGA.9
Aircraft Textures are in jpeg format to represent following Indian Air Force Hunter squadrons.
No. 7 Squadron "Battle Axes"
No. 14 Squadron "Bulls"
No. 17 Squadron "Golden Arrows"
No. 20 Squadron "Lightnings"
No. 27 Squadron "Flaming Arrows"
No. 37 Squadron "Black Panthers"
No. 122 ad-hoc Hunter squadron(Battle of Longewala fame)
Hunter Operational Conversion Unit
Target Tug Flight " The Banners"
This mod is meant as an addon specifically for the Indo-Pak mod and is meant to be an improvement of Paulo Panz's excellent IAF Hunter mods( to bring the loadouts and other features upto latest patch standards). The biggest change is that the Hunter now able to carry 25 & 60-lb rocket projectiles( something which Indian Hunters did frequently on strike missions).
----------------------
Installation
--------------------
This is assuming that you have the Indo-Pak mod installed. Since this shall be a complete replacement for the IAF Hunter variants, please either back up or delete Hunter F56 and Hunter56A folders in the aircraft & decals folder. Then drop the contents of the file in your X:\Users\YYYY\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2XX folder and let it overwrite

BAC Lightning F.Mk 52 for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 (EP2)
This is a very simple mod of the stock Third Wire BAC Lightning F.2 to make the little-known F.Mk 52 version that was exported to Saudi Arabia as part of 'Operation Magic Palm' an early UK supplied defence package that also saw the supply of Lightning T.Mk 54 trainers, Hawker Hunters and Thunderbird SAM's. Four F.Mk 2's were withdrawn from RAF stocks and were refurbished at BAC Warton to F.Mk 52's before being delivered to the Royal Saudi Air Force in 1966 with a fifth F.Mk 52 joining them in 1967. Rather confusingly, four of these five aircraft were re-serialled so there are nine serial numbers included here.
INSTRUCTIONS
1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the Lightning52 folder into your Aircraft folder.
2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the Lightning52 folder into your main Decals folder.
3. From the SOUNDS folder drag and drop the Avon_Dry and Avon_Wet files into your main Sounds folder.
CREDITS
Thanks to Third Wire for the continuous improvement of a great little game/sim.
And thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.
