This project started with a little mod here and there to make the Vipers more modern. FastCargo started the PM thread on 28 Jul 2011 and here we are 10 months later we have this.
 

This mod is dedicated to Oli (bpao) he started us on this journey and I hope, I really hope, we lived up to his expectations.

CF-18 is Canada's current multirole single seat fighter aircraft based on the FA-18, they were first put into service in 1982 and featured many upgrades from the FA-18A which they were based on.
 
 

F/A-18B/D Package. This package is beta and to be honest we are all sick of looking at it. So here is the deal. You find something wrong and the community agrees, send it to me and I will keep the package updated. We just need fresh eyes on it. There is a new pit by Brain32 that is amazing.
 
The Hornet Team:
Original Model by BPAO and the Mirage Factory, updated by FastCargo.
New pit by Brain32 with Crusader, Brain and CB34 doing the avionics.
Skins by Siddog, Sundowner and EricJ.
Crash test Dummy: Caeser
Pilots: by Diego
Seats: Julhelm and Ravenclaw
Weapons by Ravenclaw, wpnssgt and others.
Loadouts and variant shred out by CrazyhorseB34 who put a lot of effort into researching this part of the package. Its highly recommended you use the loads he made or you will have problems.
 
If I forgot anyone let me know in a PM and I will correct it.

SF2 F-22A USAF Raptors Redux 2016 - More Skins and Squadrons
by Viper63a
 
More F-22 skins and squadrons for the "SF2 F-22A USAF Raptors Redux 2016 Version 2.5" package. Blaze got me thinking about some of the old Raptors from the golden days of flight sim, so I brought some of those "What if" Raptors to SF2 levels!
 
You will need the original main pack for these skins to work. You can get that with the following link...
 
http://combatace.com/files/file/15909-sf2-f-22a-usaf-raptors-redux-v3/
 
Included in this package are the 14th SEA, 22nd Desert, 80th SEA, 433rd Various/Black, 493rd Desert and etc... All squadrons have their complete compliment of decals for their "What If" scenarios. These are considered to be "Show Birds" or Mercenary jets deployed into the USAF mix of some future conflict. There are some other Raptors from Nellis and one special Raptor for Paris.
 
As always, I recommend that you back up your mod folder before you install any new mod...just in case.
 
* To install, simply unzip and copy the contents of the "To_Mod_Folder" folder to your StrikeFighter2 mod folder and Overwrite (if needed).
 
My StrikeFighter2 mod on Win97 64-bit was..(yours may be different)...
 
C:\Users\<your_id>\Saved Games\Thirdwire\StrikeFighter2...
 
That's it, Enjoy!

AV-8B Plus Harrier Marina Militare
This is the AV-8B Plus Harrier in service with the Italian navy. 
Basic modding skills are required to run this mod.  (copy/paste, mod folder structure etc.) A fake pilot is needed to run this mod. 
It is designed for and works only in SF2 series.
 
Skin is in 4096x4096 format. So you can easily resize down.  If you have problems running this in game. Resize skins to lower resolutions
All serials are correct for the Italian version of Harrier II. 
Animations:
1= canopy open - close
4= refueling probe - beware of a speed limit
3= night vision mode - not really helping but it is there - inside and outside animation.
************************************************************************************
You can exlplore ini files for some additional features like in cockpit "FLIR" feed on HUD .
AAQ-28 can be loaded only on station number 5 and centerline
AIM-120 can be loaded only on stations 2 and 6.
ECM also activates RWR on digital display indicator - even if ECM pod is not loaded.
If you have yakarov79´s AV-8B Harrier already  - some files are same so simply overwrite.

AV-8B Harrier II. 
This is my humble rework of AV-8B.
Basic modding skills are required to run this mod.  (copy/paste, mod folder structure etc.) 
It is designed for and works only in SF2 series.
 
Around 2 years ago - January 2016 -  KillerBee approach me with the possibility of updating bobrock's harrier.  After some time, we had prepared the updated file ready for upload. Small changes here and there corrected few things. And great skins by Killerbee.
And then KillerBee disappeared from CA forum. Honestly, up to now, I have no contact with him. last - 4th May 2016. 
So harrier stayed on drive waiting for his comeback. But .... I couldn't resist...And iI started to mod this again. Since I had no KB skin templates I had to do all new skins...and more.
So now I am here...
It ended with a new cockpit and a whole set of new skins and decals on whole remodeled 'old' Harrier. - there is no single part of an original model that hasn't be touched/remodeled etc.
First of all...If you want to count rivets....Do not. 
Many things could be done other way....but I did it my way. So you have to bear with it.
All skins are in 4096x4096 format. So you can easily resize down. If you have problems running this in game. Resize skins to lower resolutions
Decals are based on my and KillerBee research. All serials are correct for the first version of Harrier II. Not always (but mostly) correct for a unit/year of service etc.
Big Thanks to Ravenclaw - He send me file with new ALQ-164 pod. Now it is part of the upload. 
You will find separate upload soon with Operation Desert Storm skins and decals - Only units that participated in the operation.
For some reason, I have added weapons that are present in Loadout.ini.

1= canopy open - close
4= refueling probe - beware of a speed limit

AV-8B Harrier II Plus /  Radar
This is my humble rework of old AV-8B.
Basic modding skills are required to run this mod.  (copy/paste, mod folder structure etc.) A fake pilot is needed to run this mod. 
It is designed for and works only in SF2 series.
 
Around 3 years ago - January 2016 -  KillerBee approach me with the possibility of updating bobrock's harrier,  and preparing  Night Attack version.  After some time, we had file ready for upload. Small changes here and there corrected a few things. And great skins by Killerbee.
And then KillerBee disappeared from CA forum. Honestly, up to now, I have no contact with him. last - 4th May 2016. 
So harrier stayed on drive waiting for his comeback. But .... I couldn't resist...And iI started to mod this again. Since I had no KB skin templates I had to do all new skins...and more.
So now I am here...My standard AV-8B Harrier is already available for download same as Night Attack model. Both models recently updated,
New cockpit and a whole set of new skins and decals on whole remodeled 'old' Harrier. - there is no single part of an original model that hasn't be touched/remodeled etc.
First of all...If you want to count rivets...Do not. 
Many things could be done other way....but I did it my way. So you have to bear with it.
All skins are in 4096x4096 format. So you can easily resize down.  Generally, it is just a few skins.  If you have problems running this in game. Resize skins to lower resolutions
Skins and decals are made to match most of the skins from Night Attack model pack. All VMA squadrons are equipped with a mix of both NA and radar model.
Decals are based on my and KillerBee research. All serials are correct for the Night Attack version of Harrier II. Not always (but mostly) correct for a unit/year of service etc. But as always aircraft are rotating between units so its hard to track them down really.
Big Thanks to Ravenclaw - He send me file with new ALQ-164 pod. Now it is part of the upload. 
For some reason, I have added weapons that are present in Loadout.ini. 
AIM-120 is specific for AV-8B via specific station code. To have proper year of apearance.
 
Animations:
1= canopy open - close
4= refueling probe - beware of a speed limit
3= night vision mode - not really helping but it is there - inside and outside animation.
************************************************************************************
You can exlplore ini files for some additional features like in cockpit "FLIR" feed on HUD .
AAQ-28 can be loaded only on station number 5 and centerline - in real - centerline come to use later and some units (VMAT) also moded wiring for use on other pylons. Nut in this mod only station 5 and 4 can carry AAQ-28.
AIM-120 can be loaded only on stations 2 and 6.
There are two stations for Intrepid Tiger II pod. In future.
ECM also activates RWR on digital display indicator - even if ECM pod is not loaded.
If you have my AV-8B Harrier already  - some files are same so simply overwrite.

Additional Notes by FastCargo:
 
Each model of B-1B has the ability to carry the specific weapons it was authorized for during that time frame. Most of these weapons are included in this package...the preset loadouts represent typical arrangements. The weapon stations have been setup so that you can only load the type and number of weapons for each bay in the loadout screen, reflecting real life limitations.
 
Also, the maximum gross weight for takeoff at sea level is 470000 pounds...you can easily exceed this just with the default loadouts at full internal fuel weight. It is HIGHLY recommended to lower your internal fuel to 75% to get under the gross weight.
 
At full gross weight, the AI and you will require the whole runway to takeoff...you will probably not 'unstick' until close to 200 knots. At minimum weight, it should only take about half the runway and about 160 knots unstick. Also, do not rotate above 9 degrees pitch on takeoff before you leave the runway...or you will scrape the tail and may crash.
 
The FM has been through some major rework to get around the limitation that the sim has with large swing wings. The current FM setup is a compromise to allow docile handling with realistic performance. There are some weaknesses with it, mainly during mid altitude cruise flight tends to take more power than the real aircraft needs. You will find that the FM mimics the real thing in most limitations...lower altitude ceiling at full gross weight, faster roll rates with wings swept back, etc. Also, 'at the limit' handling has been much improved...much more difficult to stall at high speed. Handling is fairly carefree, simulating the real aircraft's fly by wire helping you keep the aircraft within limits. It is still possible to overG or stall...with bad consequences for both.
 
For mission planning and the AI, the sim uses the 'CruiseSpeed' parameter to determine attack speed, and the LevelBombAI, ReleaseAlt to determine how high it's attack run is. Because of this, you may find the parameters for both to be different for each model. Here is the current list for each one:
 
B-1B_86 - Speed-540 knots / Alt 1500 feet
B-1B_92 - Speed-540 knots / Alt 1500 feet
B-1B_96 - Speed-540 knots / Alt 600 feet
B-1B_98 and 03 - Speed-320 knots / Alt 15000 feet
 
The 2 later models are high and slow because they mostly do standoff and PGMs, which usually require altitude.
The 2 earliest models are low alt, high speed for the nuke mission to get away from the blast (btw, you will NEED .9 mach and 1300 AGL to drop a gravity nuke...or you won't make it out of the blast radius).
The middle model is same speed, but lower altitude because they didn't carry nukes anymore.
 
We did our best. Enjoy.

After a request i received, i went ahead with this :)

Here's my rework of the original SF2 F-35A from FastCargo's F-35A/B/C Lightning II V 2.5 for SF2 pack. It includes USAF F-35A only, so there are no B/C or foreign operators versions (maybe I'll do them in the future). This pack was created and tested with full 5 merged install of SF2 with latest patch.
My main objective was to make this aircraft more reallistic by reworking the skins (RAM coatings, panel lines etc.), loadouts and other minor .ini changes. The afterburner is changed to the Viper Burner by The Viper Team and the pilot is changed to the one with JHMCS.

SF2 F-15C Oregon Air National Guard Add-On for the SF2 F-15 Eagle Super Pack Redux 2018 Pack - The Mudhen Team   Please note that this pack is not compatible with the Fastcargo's F-15 Super Pack...You can make it work with some tweaking, but this pack was designed as an "Add-On" for the "SF2 F-15 Eagle Super Pack Redux 2018" Pack. Please do not install it and expect this pack to work with the Fastcargo's F-15 Super Pack because they are both F-15 packs...   You can install this pack "As-Is" (but not over Fastcargo's F-15 Super Pack, see above), but you need the "SF2 F-15 Eagle Super Pack Redux 2018" pack to fully enjoy this pack. If you use it as a stand-alone, some weapons, effects or other things may\will be missing. You will have a flyable plane, but miss out on some bells and whistles. I recommend the full pack below.     You can get the "SF2 F-15 Eagle Super Pack Redux 2018" pack here...    
-------------------------------------------------------------
What is in this pack:
-------------------------------------------------------------
 
1) 4096x Skins in JPG format and decals for the 114th Oregon Air National Guard - as requested by JosefK! Enjoy!
2) Repainted Cockpits by Viper63a and RWR list by Spudknocker.
3) Updated Data and Loadout files from Spudknocker and Fanatic Modder.
4) 1920x1080 Hangar.jpg, Loading.jpg and Loadout.tga files.
5) Excellent new weapons and ejection seats from Ravenclaw_007!
6) Excellent Florian Pilot upgrades by JAT81500!
 
** Included Jets: F-15C From the 114th FS, 173rd Wing Oregon Air National Guard. Please note that the plane serial# are generic and randomized.
 
** Extras package contains: PSD Template and pix I used to make the plane.   -------------------------------------------------------------
Installation:
-------------------------------------------------------------   ** This is an "Add-On" for the "SF2 F-15 Eagle Super Pack Redux 2018" Pack. I have not tested this pack as a stand-alone. It should fly and work, but you may be missing some weapons in your load-out, effects or other things. I recommend that you install the "SF2 F-15 Eagle Super Pack Redux 2018" Pack first. At least the "Effects" and "Weapons" folders from the pack.   >> WARNING! I have not tested this pack with Fastcargo's F-15 Super Pack...Pretty sure there will be problems, so I do not recommend installing this pack over the Fastcargo's F-15 Super Pack. If you want to test it out,  rename the  "F-15C_02" folder in your...Objects\Aircraft mod folder...if it exists. You can then install this pack. You may be missing some weapons or effects, but you should be able to test fly the plane. After you're done, you can rename the folders back or reconcile the folders to get this pack to work with Fastcargo's F-15 Super Pack.   !! First and always - BACKUP! If you have "F-15C_02" folder in your Mod folders...Objects\Aircraft and Decals folders...Make a copy or back it up before installing.   ** To install, Copy the contents of the uncompressed "To_Mod_Folder" folder into your Saved Game mod folder. Overwrite any conflicts.   -------------------------------------------------------------
Add F15 SoundList
-------------------------------------------------------------   ** Lastly, this is optional but highly recommended. Read the "Add F15 SoundList.txt" readme file on adding the F-15 sound files included in this pack to your "Flight\SoundList.ini" file.   -------------------------------------------------------------   Thats it - Enjoy! Please report any bugs or issues via the "Support Topic" link...   -------------------------------------------------------------

                              E-8A/C Joint STARS
This mod builds upon the E-8C found in the original ODS campaign and corrects for an E-8A as used in Desert Storm.
    Included
E-8A with skins for Desert Storm, Testing (92-95), and Bosnia
E-8C with skins for the 93d ACW and the 116th ACW Georgia Air National Guard
    Installation
unzip, cut/copy and paste to mod folder. allow overwrite (should only apply to ODS mod folders), although for best results remove the old E-8C files from aircraft and decals.
    Credits
the original model and skin was created by The Mirage Factory, based on the 707 model by Bpao
C-130 pit by dels
Skin adjustments, tga and ini work by daddyairplanes
original moddable game by TK
    Known Issues
dels C-130 pit is used to make the aircraft player flyable. this pit is not very suited to the 707 airframe (alot of extra frame for a 707), but works for its purpose. The aircraft was not originally intended to be player flyable (airborne command and control not being a player mission set) and is best used as eye candy. However, i always put a pit in so i can see how my work progressed, and leave it for you guys to use too.
I hope you enjoy this mod

F-16A IIAF/IRIAF Pak


 
 

-- For FULL-4 Merged SF2 (Prefered) and/or SF2:I =ONLY!!!= --


 
This package is an "Almost If..." aircraft, representing F-16A Falcons, had they actually been delivered to the Imperial Iranian Air Force, as orderd during the Shah's reign.
 
It contains 2 skins (actualy the same skin used twice), created from a partial template of the Stock SF2:I F-16A Netz, and decals to replicate the speculative IIAF and Islamic Republic's AF F-16s.
 
You =MUST= have a Full-4 Merged SF2 install, WITH SF2:I (or better yet -a stand along Iran/Iraq mods folder, built FROM a Full-4 Merged exe), otherwise you will NOT be able to access the needed aircraft lod and cockpit files.
 
By making use of the new 'StartDate=' feature in the textureset inis, the aircraft's marking to switch from IIAF to IRIAF, based on the 1979 Islamic Revolution in Iran.
 
The aircraft makes use of all stock, In-Game items for weapons, droptanks and whatnots, simplifying installation and reducing package size. (Of course, you still need the Full-4 Merged Install and/or SF2:I or an Iran/Iraq stand-alone, built from the aforementioned Full4 Merged. Getting the point, yet??)
 
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. An abreviated "Notes and Other Nonsense" section makes for interesting reading, too.
 
Good Hunting!

C-130 pack for SF2
 
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Based on the C-130 Superpack made by Dels.
 
Original Dels plane can be found here : http://combatace.com/files/file/16427-c-130-hercules-superpack/
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
 
This is the CC-130 Hercules as used (''E'' models) and current (''H'' and ''J-30'' models) by the RCAF for the SF2 series of games.
 
To be used on Dels Hercules ONLY.
 
These skins represent the scheme used by the RCAF on their CC-130's E, H en J models.
 
The serial numbers in this skin pack along with planes numbers are real one's. Only exception on 2 serials on the ''H'' models. In this pack, serials 130343 and 130344 are as ''H'' model but it was in fact a ''H-30'' variant.
 
You will get the following skins in this package :
 
4 Wing, 436 Transport Squadron :
 
* Note : other squadrons used the Hercules, but the 436 is the only one operating the ''J'' model so this is what makes me select it.
 
CC-130E :
- Early scheme 1
- Early Scheme 2
- Early Scheme 3
- Camo Scheme
- Low-Viz Grey Scheme
 
CC-130H :
- Low-Viz Grey Scheme
 
CC-130J-30 :
- Low-Viz Grey Scheme (New color)
 
You will need to add the following to your Squadronlist.ini file which should be in your Flight AND Pilot Data folders. This is so the Unit Name shows up. (*NOTE* This is not essential). Make sure the XXX is replaced with the next
sequential number in your file:
 
[squadronXXX]
Name=436SQN
DisplayName=4 Wing, 436 Squadron
Nation=Canada
 
 
 
 
 
Two installation choice :
 
 
 
SKINS ONLY for ''H'' model (assuming you have the Dels Superpack Hercules already installed cause only the CC-130H is in his pack):
 
Copy the FOLDERS of the current pack objects/aircraft/CC-130H folder in your game aircraft/CC-130H folder.
Copy the FOLDERS of the current pack decals/CC-130H folder in your game decals/CC-130H folder.
 
Open the Textureset.ini and edit the file by adding the texture.ini lines. Don't forget to change the file path accordingly.
 
For the ''E'' and ''J-30'' models, follow the complete aircraft installation for the aircraft and decals folders ONLY.
 
 
 
COMPLETE AIRCRAFT :
 
Copy the RCAF CC-130'S PACK Objects/aircraft folders content to your game aircraft folder.
Copy the RCAF CC-130'S PACK Objects/decals folders content to your game decals folder.
Copy the RCAF CC-130'S PACK Objects/guns folder content to your game pilots folder.

McDonnell Douglas CF-18 Hornet Package for SF2 1.1
Package for SF2 (Includes aircraft upgraded under the two phases of the Incremental Modernization Project) UPDATED
 
1.1 Updates:
 
- Skin pack added to make a total of 9 different skins that cover the change in markings over the years as well as squadrons that have been activated and disbanded etc. Plus a few special/ anniversary skins.
- Additional 'CF-18 Hornet IMP Phase II Operation 'Mobile' Lybia 2011' Aircraft with with loadouts, markings and a pilot skin specific to the campaign.
- LoadOut.ini files and weapons updated.
- Improved Bird slicer IFF aerials.
 
 
 
This package contains three separate year specific aircraft to cover the original aircraft and the upgrades it received in latter years as part of the Incremental Modernization Project:
 
 
‘CF-18 Hornet’ is the initial aircraft and covers the period from delivery till 2006.
 
‘CF-18 Hornet IMP Phase I (03)’ the AN/APG-65 radar is replaced with the AN/APG-73 radar, the AN/APX-111 IFF is added, as is ability to use JDAMs and AMRAAMs. This covers the period from 2003 to 2007
 
‘CF-18 Hornet IMP Phase II (07)’ this includes the integration of the Joint Hemet Mounted Cuing System, the ability to carry the Sniper XR targeting pod and an upgrade to the aircrafts ECM jammers. This aircraft covers the period from 2007 till 2017+.
 
 
There are overlaps in the operational dates due to the time each upgrade program took to do the entire fleet.
 
 
You can use the single mission editor to select a Laser Guided Bomb Attack loadout or the Mixed LGB/AMRAAM loadout used over Libya.
 
 
I have used the Mirage Factory CF-18 from the SF2 NATO Fighters 4+ Mod as the base for this Mod.
 
 
Also includes is an extensive rwr.lst file and library
 
 
 
Instillation:
 
 
Simply un zip and drop the contents into any SF2 series Mod Folder, make sure you override when prompted.

****************** Version 2.2 ****************************
 
Updated to June 2010 Patch standards. Cockpit view issues fixed.
 
****************** Version 2.1 ****************************
 
Several early variants of the non-Israeli Eagles added. You will need to have SF2E to be able to have a cockpit for these early versions. The stock F-15A ini files included with SF2E has also been tweaked to take advantage of the 3rd party effects in this aircraft pack.
 
There may be a way to use the Baz cockpit included in SF2I and/or use the Eagle/Baz cockpits in WOE/WOI...however, we cannot provide support for this due to time constraints.
 
Additional thanks to USAFMTL for indulging me in my obsessive/compulsive disorder by helping decal every variant...

Updated 757-200 for SF2
 
This is an update of YEYEYEs SF1 release for use in SF2. I have applied my usual technique to incorporate multiple airlines on one skin per era, with 4 eras from release in the
mid 1980s through the mid 1990s. More may become available later but templates are included for those that don't want to wait on me.
 
Installation
unzip, open folder titled "Mod Folder" and allow overwrites.
IF YOU HAVE A PREVIOUSLY MODDED FOLDER
1. delete flight and terrains from "Mod Folder". 2 open the "Specials Folder", insert the nations txt file into your Nations.ini and the terrain txt file into your
(whatever)Nations.ini in the needed terrain folder.
templates to wherever you keep files for modding, or delete if you do not desire to mod it
 
Known Issues
- It is a bit slow on the pickup. while it can take off from a smaller airbase, best to stick to larger fields
- It features the same pit as the 767 and other airliners. we do not have an in house pit that is more appropriate at the moment and so most airliners are stuck looking like generic WWII
bomber pits
- It has a seam on the bottom of the model that is very pronounced given the decal based marking system i use. however this should not be to noticeable unless you approach it from below.
When parked on the ground or viewed from the side or above the seam is not noticeable.
- for all above faults, remember: it is meant as eye candy, not an operational bird! enjoy taking off from Keflavik or Rhein Main and seeing many airlines parked on one ramp

Streamlined the mod, took out some of the skins to make the package smaller, fixed many ini problems. Add missing hangar and loadng screens. Deleted loose files. Made it more user friendly and complete package.

The Hornet Team:
Original Model by BPAO and the Mirage Factory, updated by FastCargo.
New pit by Brain32 with Crusader, Brain and CB34 doing the avionics.
Skins by Siddog, Dave and EricJ.
Crash test Dummy: Caeser
Pilots: by Diego
Seats: Julhelm and Ravenclaw
Weapons by Ravenclaw, wpnssgt and others.
Loadouts and variant shred out by CrazyhorseB34 who put a lot of effort into researching this part of the package. Its highly recommended you use the loads he made or you will have problems.
If I forgot anyone let me know in a PM and I will correct it.
To install:
C:\Users\xxxxxxx\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 directory.
 
 
Previous readme info below.
Fixed decals and skins. Recommend deleting all the other skins and using these to get rid of excess files.
Added missing drop tanks and added Ravenclaws weapons.
This package is beta and to be honest we are all sick of looking at it. So here is the deal. You find something wrong and the community agrees, send it to me and I will keep the package updated. We just need fresh eyes on it. There is a new pit by Brain32 that is amazing.
