    1. SF2 P-51D/K Mustang by Crisis Remod Pack

      SF2 P-51D/K Mustang by Crisis Remod Pack       1/28/2024
      -For SF2, Any and All-
      Another 1stGen Salvage Project...
      This is an SF2 Remod of P-51D Mustang by crisis. Historically this was one of the first aircraft mods released for SF1 in approx 2008. While the model still has some issues (see "Notes"), it's fully functional, and has been upgraded for the SF2 environment. I believe this will be a complimentary aircraft for the stock 3W Mustang (and others).
      This mod is supplied with just about all the original skin sets I could find from the 1stGen SF mods section and from Marcfighters archive. Unfortunately, several were not up to snuff, with inaccurate coloration, or had painted-on markings that make it impossible to allow the use of the superb 3W decal system. Therefore several, while replicating the originals, are new builds. These were made from a new template, and it is included. These skin sets cover US Army Air Force (WW2 ETO), USAF (post-war), Korean War units for the USAF, RoKAF, SAAF, and Israeli Air Force directly post-WW2 and during the 1956 Suez Crisis.. Several of the included skins make use of decal sets I created for other mods, as you all know how I hate to waste good decals!!! :)
      You will find herein ...
      USAAF/USAF:
      362nd FS,357th FG (ETO) -1944 start date (NMF)
      375th FS, 361st FG (ETO) -Sept, 1944 start date (Camo/NMF/Invasion Stripes under wing/fues)
      "USAFSilver", Generic NMF -10/1947 start date
      12th FBS, 18th FBG (Korea) -1950 start date
      SAAF:
      2 Sqdn, SAAF "Flying Cheetahs" -1950 start date
      IDFAF:
      No.101 Sqdn (NMF) -1948 start date
      No.116 Sqdn Blue/Brown Camo (1956<) -Suez Crisis camo scheme
      RoKAF:
      51st PFS* (ROKAF) -Korean War. #18 is Col. Dean Hess' aircraft, with nose art
      *=Provisional Fighter Squadron
      98.6% of the markings are decals, with some small exceptions (see notes). Decal randomization is TRUE.
      While many skins had to be remade, some are still 'as issued' (un-retouched). All remain in bmp format. As is usual, serial numbers & 'plane in squadron letters' (WW2 & Korea) are as historically accurate as possible. Those fully 100% matched are marked with the star (*), those correct, but unable to match to a individual code letter are marked with the plus/cross (+), those with no mark are generic.
      For those units listed in the game's SquadronList ini, my (patent pending) 'fake SqTail' decal is used to activate their name displayed on the Loadout screen. The SF2 'date switch' is used for all services on their respective skin sets.
      Sounds and drop tanks are included. All weapons used are also included. If you End Users (tm) have the SF2I expansion that adds the Mustang and WW2 era weapon, feel free to edit the loadout ini to use those stock in-game 3rd Wire items. The data ini has been brought up, as much as possible, to current standards. The FM test drives as fully compatable with SF2.
      When in-game, you'll see
      P-51D/K Mustang (cr)
      on the Aircraft Selection dropdown. This "(cr)" will differenize this one from the 3rd Wire or Wolf357's (and variations thereof). This mod DOES (sorta) cover both the D & K variants, as there's very little (actual) difference between them (one built in Inglewood, CA -D; the other in Dallas, TX -K; albeit with a different prop). Canopy acutation uses the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0.
      As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. Also, give the "Notes" a browse, as it explains certain issues this model has, and the change logs.
      Good Hunting and Happy Landings!

    2. SF2 A-26C Invader Pak (Revamped) by Bobrock, Gerwin & Wrench

      SF2 A-26C Invader Pak (Revamped) by Bobrock, Gerwin & Wrench        3/5/2023
      = For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccommended/Preferred) =
      *Note: This a semi=major overhaul of the original A-26C released in 2013. Gerwin has reworked many aspects of the model, and THIS MOD WILL REPLACE ALL OTHER EARLIER VERSIONS!!!  You are advised to move, remove, or delete any other versions of this you have in any/all mod folders. This new packaging covers the WW2 and post-war time frame. *
      *Note: (again!) In 1947, the "A" for "Attack" designation was removed from use, and the A-26 Invader renamed to B-26 Invader (for Light Bomber Squadrons). Also, with the retirement of the Martin B-26 Marauder after WW2, the number was "open for reuse". However, the displayed name on the Single Mission screen will read "A-26C Invader"; as that's what it be. BTW, this is the GLASS NOSED bomber version, with working Norden bombsight. Instructional PDF included.
      The revamp is supplied with 3 skins:
      552nd BS, 386th BG, 9th AF ETO (1944 start date)
      13th BS, 3rd BG (<1950) Korean War Era
      Generic NMF for any time period (10/47 start date)
      All skins are "natural metal", some with painted on national or squadron markings. The Generic NMF marking are ALL decals, and carries post-1947 USAF markings. The serial/Buzz numbers =ARE= correct for this aircraft, but represent no particular unit. This is true for the WW2 skins serials as well. The SF2 "Date Switch" is active, and will change from the WW2 to the post-war skin in October 1947.
      Weapons are =NOT= included; all stock items are used.The engine sound are included, it's been switched to the AvHistory R2600 x2 wav. Each skin has its own Hangar Screen.
      This aircraft is also equipped with a fully functional bombsight/bombadiar position. Included is Kesselbruts pdf on "How To Use the Bombsight". I'd suggest reading it however many times it takes, and to practice, Practice, PRACTICE!!! using it on the Bombing Range Terrain.
       
      The canopy opens with the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0.
      When 'in game', you'll see
      A-26C Invader (BRG)
      on the Aircraft Selection Drop down menu. This, also, will help to differentiate the aircraft from any other Invader you may (or may not) have. It stands for "Bobrock/Gerwin" as they did the real heavy lifting.
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too.
      Good Hunting!

    4. YB-40 Destroyer

      SF2 WW2 ETO YB-40 Destroyer by Veltro2K
       -- Something for the WW2 ETO players --
      = For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
      This is the release of the YB-40 by Veltro2k, an extensively modified B-17F that was experimentaly used by the 8th AF as an escort placed with regular B-17 formations. The aircraft depicted here were those 12 used by the 92nd Bombardment Group (H), 327th Bomb Squadron based at RAF Alconbury.
      All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. Serial numbers and plane-in-squadron letter are 100% historical and are matched to their proper aircraft. 
      2 skins are supplies; the only difference is one uses the early 'star-and-ball' (pre-Sept 43). The other uses the 'star-and-bar' (post-Sept 43). Both skins are Olive Drab over Neutral Gray. The aircraft has less than a one year service life, nearly approximating the Real World (tm) usage.
      When in-game, you'll see
      YB-40 Flying Fortress (v2k)
      on the aircraft selection drop-down list.
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please =READ= them BEFORE installing this mod!!!. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too.
      Happy Hunting!

    5. SF2 A-26N Invader Nightfighter Pack

      SF2 A-26N Invader Nightfighter Pack       2/21/2020
      -For SF2, Any and All (Full 4/5 Merged Reccomended)
      "Quarantine Approved - Essential Mods"
      This is a mod of the WW2/KAW era A-26 Invader into a make-shit night fighter/interceptor as used by the French Air Force during the Algerian War of Independence in the late 1950s-early 1960s. This mod was started at the beginning of the year (as you can see from the date above), and got lost in the shuffle, what with all the world wide insanity. I now present it to YOU! Because I can't think of anything else to do with it!!! :)
      In the early 1960s, during the aforementioned war, 8 French Air Force A-26B Invader bombers were modified to carry an Air Intercept radar and were used to counter airborne smuggling of arms and supplies to the rebels. They were assinged to ECN I/71.
      This model is finished in overall night black, with standard AdA markings. All markings, excepting the French tri-colored rudder, are decals. Decal randomization is TRUE. On the number list ini, you'll see 4 serial marked with the star (*). These have been matched as having been used by ECN 1/71. The other unmarked serials are just 'generic', but those aircraft were used by the AdA (either in Indo-china or Algeria or both).
      All other bits are supplied; sounds, pilots, weapons - including a "version" of the SNEB 68 rockets and rocket pod "modified" for air-to-air usage (inis only -- I've tagged them to use the stock 3W Matra pods. And they DO work, with a little practice.)
      When in-game, on the aircraft selection drop-down menu, you'll see:
      A-26N Invader (NF)
      Designating this as a "night fighter" variant.
      As is always reccommended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. Also, as usual, PLEASE give the "Notes" section a look at!!
      Good Hunting & Happy Landings!

    6. SF2 P/F-51D/K Mustang Pack by FastCargo

      SF2 P/F-51D/K Mustang Pack by FastCargo      8/7/2020
      -For SF2, Any and All-
      "Quarantine Approved - Essential Mods"
      This is the long delayed release of the P/F-51D/K Mustang by FastCargo. This aircraft was originally built for use in the "Korean Air War" mod, circa 2011. As we'd chosen to use the stock 3W Mustang, this one was shunted aside. A little while ago, one of our CombatAce members contacted me, and asked what happened to it. So, I went ahead and finished it off. With FC's permission, it's now being released for General Usage (tm).
      Originally built with (the problematic) DDS textures, the LOD has been hex edited to take jpgs. This aircraft is issued with 3 skins:
      USAF1 - generic NMF, for USAAF WW2 & post-war service from 1945-1947
      USAF2 - generic NMF, with post-1947 USAF markings
      12th FBS, 18th FBG as used during the Korean war.
      The SF2 'date switch' is used on all skins: the 12th FBS will activate in 1951.
      Almost all markings are decals, excepting where needed for painted-on squadron markings (12th FBS flashes and sharkmouth). 100 serial & 'buzz number' decals are provided for WW2 and post-WW2 use, and decal randomization is TRUE. All sounds, weapons, and the pilot figure are included. The canopy operates with the Standard Animation Keystroke (tm), Shift/0 (zero).
      When in-game, on the aircraft selection drip-down panel, you'll see:
      F-51D/K Mustang (FC)
      This will differentiate THIS model from all the other Mustangs available, both 3rd Party and Stock.
      Even though the "P" wasn't changed to "F" until October, 1947, this is easier. The D/K Mustangs are identical, differing only in production location (D = Los Angeles, CA.  K = Dallas, TX) The "FC" is obviously for 'FastCargo', the Maker.
      As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. It's also suggest to give the "Note" section a read as well. Just for grins and giggles, obviously.
      Good Hunting!

    8. SF2 WW2 PTO - F4F Wildcats and SBD Dauntless

      SF2 WW2 F4F-3/4 Wildcat, SBD-3/5 Dauntless
       
      -- Something for the PTO players --
      = For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
       
      *There is a possibility that this mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs, due to the
      excessive modifications made to fit them into the SF2 environment.*
       
      This is a compilation of all my work for Wolf's SBD Dauntless and Pasko's F4F Wildcat. It is
      designed to replace ALL the previously released versions. So, be advised.
      There are 5 aircraft in this pak:
       
      F4F-3 (pre- and early war)
      F4F-4 (early war to mid-43
      FM-2 (mid to late war -this is a stand in aircraft, based on the -4)
      SBD-3 (pre and early war, to mid-43 -includes RNZAF skin)
      SBD-5 (mid war, tri-color)
      and ???? a surprise!
       
      All have semi-compliant SF2 Flight Models, but they REALLLLLLY do need further fine tuning by
      experts. All lighting on all aircraft is 100% historically correct. All are carrier capable, with
      the SF2NA statments for those (ok, 2) aircraft with folding wings
      Use Shift/0 to open the window, and Shift/9 to fold the wings -Wilcat ONLY!
       
      All skins are in jpg format, and decal randomization is set to TRUE. I've tried, as best as
      possible, to use the 'StartDefaultDate' on all skins to limit the availability for pre-War markings
      from those that came into being post-January, 1942. The -4 'cats have skins that start 1/42, and
      the Dauntless has the same pre and post 1/42 starts. Hopefully, they will work as they should.
      Userlists are included for all aircraft, as being 'exported' means USN, USMC, and in the SBD-3's
      case, RNZAF.SF2 versions of the old 'box art' Hangars are included for those that had them.
      Sounds, weapons are included. Also, for you enjoyment, a never-before-released-to-the-public
      "Surprise" aircraft. Yes, its a total stand-in, and dosen't really even look like what it
      represents, but ... you can have to fun with it (flying for the Red Side, that is, attacking it.)
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, highly detailed install instructions are included. So, please
      read them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too.
      All readmes from the original releases, and re-releases, are included where discoverable from the
      archives.
       
      Happy Hunting!

    9. Vultee P-66 Vanguard

      The Vultee P-66 Vanguard was a United States Army Air Forces fighter aircraft. It was initially ordered by Sweden, but by the time the aircraft were ready for delivery in 1941, the United States would not allow them to be exported, designating them as P-66s and retaining them for defensive and training purposes. Eventually, a large number were sent to China where they were pressed into service as combat aircraft with mixed results.

    12. SF2 WW2 MTO B-25C/D Mitchell Bomber Pak

      SF2 WW2 MTO B-25C/D Mitchell Bomber Pak 8/2/2017
       
      -- Something for the WW2 MTO players --
       
      = For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
       
      *Please note, this aircraft was supposed to be released several years ago (in August, 2014!!), and somehow managed to slip out of sight. I hope this corrects that mistake.*
       
      **Note: This mod will -NOT- work in 1stGen game installs at any patch level. Also, for those End Users � attempting to use this aircraft in an SF2 converted version of the DAT's WoA Pak, be advised of probable conflicts.**
       
      This is a "Theatre Specific" release of Veltro2K's =NEW= B-25C/D Mitchell Medium Bomber. This represents the "glass nosed" bomber version as used in the MTO. This is the FULL aircraft, with just about all the necessary parts supplied.
       

      There are 4 skin/decals set(s) in the package:
       
      "Early" - with star/circle
      "Late" - star-and-bar, post September, 1943.
      For the following units:
       
      81st BS, 12th BG
       
      83rd BS, 12th BG
       
      This mods uses the Brain32 trick, with the skinmap in the main aircraft folder. The aircraft is finished in Sand (desert pink) over neutral gray. This represents the 12th BG from it's arrival in theatre to late 1943.
      All markings are decals, and Decal Randomization is TRUE. The aircraft carries the "plain star-in-blue-circle" used until Sept 1943. The SF2 "date switch" will turn on in September, 1943 for the 'star and bar' insignia.
       
      Engine sounds, pilot figures, and skin-specific Hangar Screens are included. Weapons, guns, bombs, etc, are NOT; you should have them already. Operational service dates are rounded to 'whole months', and ARE relatively correct for ALL in-theatre usage (7/42-12/43 although it is likely several served longer, even when the H & J models reached MTO squadron service).
       
      When in game, you'll see
       
      B-25C/D Mitchell (v2k)
       
      on the Aircraft Selection Drop down menu. This will differentiate it from any other B-25s you may (or may not) have.
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!!
       
      Happy Landings!!

    13. Sikorsky R-4B / HNS-1 / Hoverfly Mk.1

      Sikorsky R-4B/HNS-1/Hoverfly Mk.1
       

      This is a third party addon of Sikorsky R-4B/HNS-1 helicopter.
      The original flight model is standard as on many free to download helicopters modified by me. I am not using airbrakes or flaps but flying fast and slow is stil possible, even hovering with little practice.
      It is designed for and works only in SF2 series. And will never work in SF1.

      If someone wants to improve something let me know.
      Templates for pit or skins are available on pm request.
       
      Simple cockpit included.
      Flying.
      As with all my previous helos flying is quite easy. With little practice you can even hoover. Without fake flaps and airbrakes.
      Important here to control is using rudder and vector thrust control.
      Normaly throtle vector control on 88-89 degree increase power 55% wait little and then increase to 100% and helo will take off nicely. 341 version got little less power in engine.
       
       
       
      Skins.
      Each aircraft got one set of skins representing USArmy Air Corps, Royal navy And US Coast Guard.
       
      All serial numbers are historicaly correct.. As far as I know.
       
      Decals for USCG and Royal Navy by Coupi.
      Pilot is from Korea Mod but I don't know who is creator of this model. All credit to him.
       

      Have fun.
      Hope you will enjoy it same as me when working on it.
      Edit and report bugs.

    14. SF2 WW2 PTO B-17E Flying Fortress Pak

      The Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress is a four-engine heavy bomber aircraft developed in the 1930s for the United States Army Air Corps (USAAC). Competing against Douglas and Martin for a contract to build 200 bombers, the Boeing entry outperformed both competitors and more than met the Air Corps' expectations. Although Boeing lost the contract because the prototype crashed, the Air Corps was so impressed with Boeing's design that they ordered 13 more B-17s for further evaluation. From its introduction in 1938, the B-17 Flying Fortress evolved through numerous design advances.

    15. SF2 RAF Washington B.1 (B-29A) Pack

      SF2 RAF Washington B.1 (B-29A) Pack 4/26/2015
       
      = For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
       
      *Note: This mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs at any patch level, due to the extensive modifications made to fit them into the SF2 environment. End Users � that attempt it, do so at their own risk. A Full 5 Merged install is reccomened at the LATEST patch level.*
       
      This mod represents B-29 Superfortress bombers used by the RAF in the early 1950s. This is a "country specific" mod, =ONLY= designed for Royal Air Force usage. It is the complete aircraft, including a 'new(ish)' cockpit. All items, excepting weapons are included.
       
      This is a complete revamp of the now no longer available 1st Gen mod by Bob "howling1" Hauser. This mod is dedicated to his memory, both as a Person, and a Modder.
       
      The skin herein represents Washingtons from
       
      No 44 "Rhodesia" Squadron
       
      All markings are decals. Serial numbers, while correct for this model, are to be considered generic in nature. Decal randomization is TRUE. The only 'nose art' is the squadron badge (also a decal!). Other squadron can easily be done by creating a new squadron letters decal. (and nose badge, of course).
      The aircraft carries standard USAAF/USAF WW2 era bombs. The Tallboy stations remain active.
       
      When in game you'll see
       
      Washington B.1 (B-29A)
       
      on the aircraft selection drop down.
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too. There are "Operational Notations" and other important data you should know.
       
      Good Hunting!

    16. SF2 KAW B-29 Superfortress Pak

      SF2 KAW B-29 Superfortress Pak 4/26/2015
       
      = For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
       
      *Note: This mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs at any patch level, due to the extensive modifications made to fit them into the SF2 environment. End Users � that attempt it, do so at their own risk. A Full 5 Merged install is reccomened at the LATEST patch level.*
       
      This mod represents B-29 Superfortress bombers used by the USAF during the Korea War. This is a "era specific" mod, ONLY designed for Post-1947 usage. It is the complete aircraft, including a 'new(ish)' cockpit. All items, excepting for the standard bombs (in the KAW Weapons Pack) are included.
       
      Skins included here are for:
      28th BS, 19th BG*
      33rd BS, 22nd BG*
      343rd BS, 98th BG
      372nd BS, 307th BG *
      "USAF2", (a generic NM skin with no squadron/group markings)
       
      (*=indicates Night undersides. others are NM overall)
       
      All markings, excepting squadron/group color bands, are decals. Serial numbers, while correct for this model, are to be considered generic in nature. Decal randomization is TRUE. All skins use the same "pool" of serial numbers. There are NO nose arts.
      A number of new (actually revamped for SF2) weapons are included:
       
      VB-3
      VB-4 RAzon guided bombs
      VB-13 Tarzon guided bomb
      T-10 Tallboy
      A Large Selection of early fission bombs
       
      Please note, that the effects for the nukes (included), do NOT work in some mods folders, for no known reason. They work fine in others. Also, be advised, even with the smallest yields, your chances of surviving are very small. Use of these weapons is not really reccomended. They are included for historical pruposes only.
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too. There are "Operational Notations" and other important data you should know.

    17. SF2 WW2 ETO Republic P-47D "Razorback" Thunderbolt by Cocas

      SF2 WW2 ETO Republic P-47D "Razorback" Thunderbolt 12/22/2014
       
      = For SF2 (Full4/5 Merged RECCOMENDED!)
       
      *This mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs. It was built for SF2 ONLY!!.*
       
      This is a BRAND NEW aircraft, brought to you by Cocas Aircraft Factory & Co.
      We are calling this "version 0.9", as there exists the possibility of more work being required. But, we wanted to get them out into the hands of our WW2 End Users ™ for their examinations and so forth.
       
      REMINDER: this pack contains ETO Jugs only!!! Other theatres/users will follow as time permits, and as they are completed.
       
      This pak contains, as stated above, a NEW aircraft, representing the Razorback P-47D (-5 thru -20) Thunderbolt as seen in late 1943 through war's end.
      Skins included are:
       
      56th Fighter Group (8th AF):
       
      61st FS
      62nd FS
      63rd FS
       
      and
       
      377th FS, 362nd FG (9th AF)
       
      All markings are decals; this will allow super easy creation of other squadrons by simply creating a new SCode decal, although those with a purer historical heart will also have to run down the matching serial numbers for their decal creation. Decal randomization is set to TRUE.
      Please note, Squadron or Group specific markings -ARE- painted on.
      The mod has the correct nose arts, matched to plane-in-squadron letter and serial numbers for the 61st FS only. However, the serials for the 62nd & 63rd ARE matched to their plane-in-squadron letter. They have no nose arts. Any marked with a star (*) ARE correct for their squadron, but could not be 100% matched to a particular aircraft.
       
      The 61st carries the mid-to-late 43 style of QIMs, and the other 2 (62 & 63) have the 1944 style used the 56th, including the squadron colored tails.
      The 377th is in natural metal, and has full D-Day markings. Included is a post-September 44 skin, with D-Day stripes -only- on the bottom. Those serials should be considered "generic" in nature, but ARE for the correct model variant.
       
      All the 1stGen Hangar and/or Loading screens were either rebuilt to SF2-spec, or created new for this package. They are in jpg format, and fit SF2 styling. Damage textures are also new, in DDS format.
      The canopy opens/closes with the Standard Animation Keystroke ™, Shift/0
      Pilots, sounds, weapons are all included.
      Templates for this aircraft will be issued as a seperate release, for those skinners that wish to do other units for other theatres or Allied users.
       
      As there are several P-74D Razorbacks available, when in game you'll see:
       
      P-47D-20 Thunderbolt (CAF)
       
      on the aircraft selection dropdown menu. This will diferentiate it from any others that are around (Wolf or DAT).
      As some unit markings are repeated, those with the mods I built for Wolf's Razorback, can choose to keep those, revamp them for use on THIS model, or remove them to storage. You'll most likely be doing this when the D 'Bubbletop' is released.
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!! Also, as usual, give the "Notes" section a read, too.
       
      Happy Landings!

    18. SF2 WW2 PTO RNZAF P-40E/K/M/N Kittyhawk Pack

      SF2 WW2 PTO RNZAF P-40E/K/M/N Kittyhawk Pack
       
       
      A total of 301 P-40s were allocated to the RNZAF under Lend-Lease, for use in the Pacific Theater, although four of these were lost in transit. The aircraft equipped 14 Squadron, 15 Squadron, 16 Squadron, 17 Squadron, 18 Squadron, 19 Squadron and 20 Squadron.
       
      RNZAF P-40K/N/M squadrons were successful in air combat against the Japanese between 1943 and 1944 (RNZAF P-40E never saw combat). Their pilots claimed 100 aerial victories in P-40, whilst losing 20 aircraft in combat. Geoff Fisken, the highest scoring British Commonwealth ace in the Pacific, flew P-40s with 14 Squadron, although half of his victories were claimed with the Brewster Buffalo.
       
      The overwhelming majority of RNZAF P-40 victories were scored against Japanese fighters, mostly Zeroes. Other victories included Aichi D3A "Val" dive bombers. The only confirmed twin engine claim, a Ki-21 "Sally" (misidentified as a G4M "Betty") fell to Fisken in July 1943
       
      From late 1943 and 1944, RNZAF P-40s were increasingly used against ground targets, including the innovative use of naval depth charges as improvised high-capacity bombs. The last front line RNZAF P-40s were replaced by Vought F4U Corsairs in 1944. The ex combat P-40s joined the P-40E in New Zealand OCU Squadrons relegated to use as advanced pilot trainers.
       
      The name Kittyhawk was generally retained throughout the aircraft's' service with the RNZAF, even when the later models' official name was Warhawk.
       
       
       
      Included are 4 Royal New Zealand Air Force specific aircraft with a total of 11 skins.
       
      - P-40E Kittyhawk RNZAF
       
      - P-40K Kittyhawk (Warhawk) RNZAF
       
      - P-40M Kittyhawk (Warhawk) RNZAF
       
      - P-40N Kittyhawk (Warhawk) RNZAF
       
       
       
      INSTILATION: Drop files into your mods folders, override when prompted.
       
       
       
      NOTE: Has only been tested/used in a merged install of ALL SF2 titles

    19. WW2 PTO PV-1 Ventura (Early)

      SF2 WW2 PTO PV-1 Ventura (Early) by Veltro2K        8/30/2014
       -- Something for the WW2 PTO players --
      = For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
      **Note: This mod will -NOT- work in 1stGen game installs at any patch level.A Full-5 merged is reccomended.**
      This is a the release of Veltro2K's =NEW= Lockheed/Vega PV-1 Ventura USN Patrol Bomber. This represents the early "glass nosed" version as used in the PTO.  
      There are 4 skin/decals set(s) in the package:
      USN (42-43, NS Blue over NS Grey, star-and-ball)
      USN43 (star-&-bar, 3 tone)
      and
      RNZAF (overall blue/grey mid-war light blue roundels, as used from Henderson Field)
      RNZAF43 (overall blue/grey, roundel-and-bar)
      The skins use the SF2 "date switch", and will change in approx September, 1943
      Although the US Navy skins are tagged for VPB-138, they are representative of pretty much ALL USN PTO Ventura units from Australia to the Aleutians.
      The RNZAF skins, while tagged for No.3 Squadron, are also fairly representative of NZ units in the SoWesPac regions of the PTO.
      All markings are decals, and Decal Randomization is TRUE. Serial number/BuNums are accurate for the model depicted, but should be considered 'generic' in nature, as they reprsent no specific unit. Lighting is as accurate as possible, given the lack of pictures of the bottom.
      Engine sounds, pilot figures, and skin-specific Hangar Screens are included. Weapons, guns, bombs, etc, are NOT; you should have them already.  Operational service dates are rounded to 'whole months', and ARE relatively correct for ALL in-theatre usages.
      When in game, you'll see
      PV-1 Ventura (Early) (v2k)
      on the Aircraft Selection Drop down menu. As different versions are planned, this will help keep them diferentiated, so to speak.
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!!  
      Happy Landings!!

    20. SF2 WW2 ETO RAF Airacobra Mk.1 Pak

      SF2 WW2 ETO RAF Airacobra Mk.1 Pak by Veltro2k 6/13/2014
       
      -- Something for the ETO players --
       
      = For SF2, Full-4/5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
       
      *There is a distinct possibility that this mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs, due various and sundry reasons*
       
      This is an ETO (Theatre Specific) version of Veltro2k's Bell P-39D Airacobra. This represents those used by the RAF in Europe as the "Airacobra Mk.1", for a VERY short time! Basically, this is what would become the P-400 in USAAF service. Operational dates have been rounded to "whole months".
       
      The unit depicted is:
       
      No. 601 "County of London" Squadron
       
      The aircraft is finished in standard "Temperate Day Scheme", circa late 1941 (painted in the USA at the Bell factory). The skin is in jpg format. Decal Randomization is TRUE. Damage textures are in DDS format.
      The engine Sounds is included. All the other items (bombs, drop tank, guns, etc) you should have already.
      All lighting is 100% historically correct.
       
      When in game, you'll see:
       
      Airacobra Mk.1 (v2k)
       
      Displayed on the Aicraft Selection Dropdown menu.
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too.

    21. SF2 KAW F4U-4/F4U-4B Corsair Pak, Ver 2 by TMF/MM

      SF2 KAW F4U-4/F4U-4B Corsair Pak, Ver 2 by TMF/MM 6/18/2014
       
      = For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
       
      ***Note: This pack replaces in total the TMF F4U-4 & F4U-4B Corsairs for KAW that were released several years ago. If you have the original KAW versions in you KAW mods folder, you =MUST= delete the F4U-4 and F4U-4B aircraft & decal folders from your game -BEFORE- installing this version. There have been a NUMBER of changes, and having the original still around =will= cause conflicts. In particular, this mod makes use of the TMF F4U-7.lod, with various components removed. As this aircraft uses SF2NA coding for carrier operations, having a Full-5 Merged install is a reccomended requirement. Those that "disapprove" of using the -7 Lod are cordially invited, and encouraged, =NOT= to download this mod. You have been warned!! ***
       
      This package contains remods of the F4U-4/-4B Corsairs for use during the Korean War. There are 2 complete aircraft in this pak, with a ship-load of skins/decal sets.
      If you have the originals from the "KAW Corsairs Pak" issued in 2013, you are advised to either delete or otherwise remove =BOTH= the aircraft and decals subfolders. These are designed to REPLACE, in total, those older orignal versions.
      The AU-1 and F4U-5NL are NOT in this pak; only the -4s
       
      Several new skin sets by CrazyHorseB34 have been added to this package They are marked with a star (*) below. Skins/Decal sets are included for the following units:
       
      F4U-4:
      VF-24 "Renegades" (USS Boxer, 7/50-11/50)
      VF-32 "Swordsmen" (USS Leyte, 1950-51)*
      VF-63 "Fighting Redcocks" (USS Boxer 2/52-8/52)
      VF-64 "Freelancers" (same as above)
      VF-113 "Stingers"(USS Philippine Sea, 7/50-3/51)
      VF-114 "Excutioners" (same as above)
      VF-193 "Ghostriders" (USS Princeton, 1952)*
      VF-653 "Dragons" (USS Valley Forge, 51-52) *
      VF-871 (USS Essex, 51-52) *
      VF-884 "Bitter Birds" (USS Boxer, 1951 & USS Kearsarge 52-53) *
      VMF-312 "Checkboards" (Shore based, various fields in Korea)
       
      F4U-4B:
      VF-53 "Iron Angels" (USS Essex 1/51-3/52)
      VF-192 "Golden Dragons" (USS Princeton, 11/51-5/52)
      VF-653 "Dragons" (USS Valley Forge, 51-52) *
      VF-791 "Fighting Rebels" (USS Boxer, 3/51-10/51)
      VMA-323 "Deathrattlers" (shore based, various fields in Korea)
      VMA-332 "Polka Dots" (USS Sicily ?? -flew off CVE)
      VMF-214 "Black Sheep" (shore based)
       
      *Please note, many Corsair squadrons flew both the -4 and -4B at the same time. There is one 'Easter Egg' squadron (totally fictious), as you all know how I hate wasting good skins/decal sets!!*
       
      The aircraft is fully carrier-capable, with all the SF2NA coding for deck 'parking'.
      Skins are in jpg format. All markings are decals and Decal Randomization is TRUE. BuNums are accurate for the aircraft variant(s) depicted, but not for the actual ones used by the squadrons; consider them 'generic' for that purpose.
      Like the original pak, all weapons, engine sound and pilot figure are included. The machine guns and cannons are not; these you should have already. A couple of new or updated weapons have been included (see Notes for more details), including new Mk.5 rocket rails by Raven.
      Standard Animations Keystrokes ™ are used for the canopy (Shift/0) and wingfold (shift/9). The aircraft will now appear on the boat, parked properly with folded wings.
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, highly detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them before installing. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too.

    22. SF2 WW2 PTO P-38F/G Lightning Pak

      SF2 WW2 PTO P-38F/G Lightning Pak 3/20/2014
       
      -- Something for the PTO players --
       
      = For SF2, Full-4/5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
       
      *There is a distinct possibility that this mod will =NOT= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs, due to the excessive modifications made to fit them into the SF2 environment.*
       
      Mods/reskins/redecaling for Wolf257's P-38F aircaft. This pak replaces my SF/Wo* 1stGen 'generic' PTO P-38F. It is designed to represent P-38F/G model Lightnings as seen in the SoWesPac Theatre, in particular the Solomons Islands.
       
      The aircraft carries the markings of the 339th FS, 347th FG as seen in late 1942 through late 43. This is pretty representative of all early Lightings in theatre at this time frame.
       
      This is the full aircraft, and is complete with everything needed (except bombs & guns; you should have these already).
      The skin is in jpg format (now! with rivets!), Decal Randomization is TRUE. Damage textures are DDS format.
       
      When In Game, you'll see
       
      P-38F Lightning (W)
       
      The (W) indicates this as a Wolf257 aircraft, and will differentiate it from any other P-38Fs you may (or may not) have.
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, highly detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them.
      Remember -- these are very old models, so they "are as they is". All original readmes, when discoverable, are included.

    24. PTO B-25D Mitchell "Starfer

      This is a "Theatre Specific" release of Veltro2K's =NEW= B-25D Mitchell Medium Bomber. This represents the "field modified" versions, that painted over the glass nose, and installed additional machine guns, creating the 'strafer' version. This package =ONLY= represents Mitchells used in the PTO/SoWesPac region. However, research has NOT indicated their use anywhere other than the New Guinea and neighboring regions for this Mitchell variant.
       
      Credits:
      Veltro2K for the aircraft
      gregoryp for the AvHistory engine sound
      Kesselbrut for the cockpit
      Wrench , ini working, and skins, decals and screens and whatnots; including many hours of research
      Others I'm sure I'm forgetting....

    25. SF2 KW Era (1950s) F4U-5 Corsair Pak by TMF/MM

      SF2 KW Era (1950s) F4U-5 Corsair Pak by TMF/MM 6/20/2014
       
      = For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
      *** ***
      This package contains a modded version of the TMF/MM F4U-5 (built from the radar equipped nightfighter version, the -5NL), with various components removed. Almost all data ini edits (removals and such) were performed by CrazyhorseB34. Minor adjustments by me.
       
      This pak represents F4U-5 Corsair fighter-bombers in the early and mid 1950s.
       
      Skins/Decal sets are included for the following units:
       
      VF-14 "Tophatters" (CV-18 Med '51-52)
      VMA-212 "Devil Cats" (possibly in Korea?)
       
      The aircraft is fully carrier-capable, with all the SF2NA coding for deck 'parking'.
      Skins are in jpg format. Most markings are decals and Decal Randomization is TRUE.
      Weapons are not included; you should have them already. However, the pilot and engine sounds are.
      Standard Animations Keystrokes ™ are used for the canopy (Shift/0) and wing fold (shift/9).
       
      As always, fairly easy to follow, highly detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them before installing. Also, give the "Notes" section a read too.
