WARNING!
This is totaly new file. I highly recomend to backup your old files. OR just delete all old files.
This is totaly new files and will not work in many parts with old.
There is still old file available to download.
New file is named AH-1S_Ver2.0_SF2
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This addon works only with included WeaponPACK. All of weapon stations are made as specific station code and will work only with this weapon
pack.
Standard commands for activating Cobra features:
AIRBRAKES - sun filter/shader on off - just for fun no airbrakes so empty animation slot for use.
ARRESTING HOOK - jump from pilot station to gunner station.
LANDING GEAR - skid search light on/off at any speed. Dont forget to retract it because you wil be not able to shoot.
A2A mode - gunner station TSU guncross for turret.
A2Ground mode - pilot M73 cross.
ANIMATION 7 - turret doors
ANIMATION 8 - ammo bay dooors
ANIMATION 9 - gunner door (ext and cockpit view)
ANIMATION 10 - pilot door (ext and cockpit view)
ANIMATION 1 - NVG (It is not nvg but some greent filter) If you don't like it disable it in cockpitini file.
Added eye candy parking animation.
Technicaly it is still old G/Q model with few upgrades. Bell enginers just put additional 400horse power, new tail gearbox with tail rotor and
some avionics upgrades. Here I also added some extra power.
For almost 10 years all new cobra was always S but different modification step model. This one was designated S(Mod) but after 1987 (when they
were already extra confused by step models) Army simplified designation system and this one become just S model.
Sometiems S(mod) is refered also as Q. But S(mod) had few visual differences compared to previous model. It also received AN/APR-39.
Tail rotor and tail rotor housing are borrowed from Marine J model. Inlet screens are removed already from this model onward.
In mid 80's lot of S(mod) were sent inot National Guard units. At this point they received wire strike protection system. Some were also equipped
with nvg. But still TSU has no nvg capability so it was not much of real night fighter.
Some S(Mod) gained C-NITE system for night targeting but it is not in my model.
In late 80s some National Guard birds received K-747 blades but it is not here.
For take off: Around 75% of throttle vector (small needle on RPM clock in cockpit should be like 65degree up) - (default ctrl + ) and then
increase power to 70-85% (or more for quick lift) and pull controll stick little and snake will take off. Then reduce throttle vector as needed
and reduce power to 69%. It should fly around 110kts now. 69% is about cruising speed.
When on the ground you can see rotating blades for pitch and roll. Just additional and unnecesary thing (not visible so much when flying) but it
is possible so it is there. Not working like i want but better then nothing.
There are two different pylons on inboard stations one for rocketpods one for gunpods. Just to have a proper angle of fire with GP. It is not
proper for real model but in my opinion best what can be done for SF engine. Rocket pods are ok with correct angle on inboard stations.
NVG.
Unfortunately there is no NVG in this game.
I just added green "filter" to cockpit and you can activate it by default Animation 1 key.
In external view ther will be little change in cockpit- unfortunately not moving with pilot/guner head.
In copit view there is green glow and filter It is definitely not helping during night flight but this is beta version. Maybe one day real nvg
will be possible here. If you dont like it disable it in cockpit.ini file. This feature apears only in National Guard 85 model and bonus,
Skins:
76 model
334th AHC B COmpany, 503rd Avn Bn, Büdingen 1977
11 ACR, Air Cavalry Tropp, Fulda, West Germany 1982.
2nd ACR, Air Cavalry Troop , Feucht, West Germany 1980.
85 model
19th Air Cavalry, Hawaii Air National Guard 1985.
added:
1st Btl,140th Avn Reg,California National Guard, 1991
This pack no longer contains Israel and Turkish Cobra. I've removed it from here as it will be part of new pack.
Weapons.
All weapons are reskined. TOW models are new.
Most of the weapon are same as in previous packs and are common to G/Q/S/P model.
Including XM158 and M200 launchers.
TOWs BGM-71A/B/C/D
One more thing. I am using mostly standard weapon effects.
Make sure to edit it your way if you decide to use this weapons.
Pilots:
I am using helopilots by OldDiego.
Some pilots models might be too big for this helo.
CHANGES to version 1.0
New skins, fixed some details on model, fixed some ini lines.
TOW Weapons redone.
Changed loadouts,
TOW launchers are part of airframe, now it is loaded diferent way then before and not using weapon rack.
Turkish and Israel aircrafts are removed from this pack and are parts of its own pack.
Enjoy.
Report Bugs.
Edit your way.

* WARNING!
regarding TAH-1S
This is totaly new file. I highly recomend to backup your old files from AH-1G mod and old AH-1 S mod. OR just delete all old files.
This is totaly new files and will not work in many parts with old.
All serials are historicaly correct.
TAH versions are for training purposes with limited combat capability. But ini files for combat can be easly modified. Mostly in data.ini file weapons are limited by weight so it will not apear on loadout menu.

In 1974 Israel aquired for test 6 war weary AH-1G Cobra. It saw some combat in newly formed squadrons. After positive feedback abput new aircraft it was sent back to USA for upgrades.
In 1979-1980 Israel received back rebuilded to S(mod) standard 6 aircrafts (rebuild of G model they purchased in 1975. 3 were sent to 160Sq and 3 to 161Sq. Zahal used them during operation Peace for Galilee in 1982. Finaly around 1987 these 6 aircrafts were also rebuild into newer model. One original S(Mod) is still in museum.

Animations.
LANDING GEAR - Nose light on/off at any speed. Don't forget to retract before shooting.
ANIMATION 8 - front left door (ext and cockpit view)
ANIMATION 9 - front right door (ext and cockpit view)
ANIMATION 10 - rear door. (disabled in _data.ini file)
ANIMATION 1 - If needed you can activate old XM70 sight to aim hydra rockets. In fact MD500 defender was offered for sale also with M27 Minigun and XM70 sight.
Here on Defender will apear when switching to AG mode. In TOW Defender gunsight by animation key 1.
By pressing Arresting Hook activation key you can switch do TOW gunner.
Like in previously realased loaches here also you can realy fly low and slow. This helo got little more power due to higher weight compared to old OH-6A
I am sugesting to fly low on 40-50% of throttle. around 45degree vector control, use pulse rudder to control left right, it is realy easy. With little practice you can even hoover. Without fake flaps and airbrakes.
Important here is to control ac using rudder and vector thrust control.
Pack comes with two versions of Defender. First is basic recon version. Second is aircraft equipped with TOW missile system.
Skins are generic for Republic of Korea Army Aviation.
All numbers as far as I know are are historicaly correct and are based on available photos. Just few numbers, but can be updated later.
Weapons.
TOWs - BGM-71 A/B/C/D.
M260 7-tube rocket launcher with several different warheads.
M27 minigun subsytem

UH-1B, D & E of YAP for SF2V v0.1 by FANATIC MODDER
I converted the YAP data.ini of
- UH-1B Gunship
- UH-1B Heavy Hog
- UH-1D
- UH-1E
for use in the sf2.
More in detail,
- I modified the powerplant lines so it doesn't crash anymore.
Furthermore, more realistic feel, closer to a real helicopter.
Accurate power data.
- Gunner animation now more realistic.
The UH-1E right gunner is finally moving.
- The Helo_Destroyed.LOD line is added.
I am sure most you have this LOD added..
Why v0.1?
LOTs of things are needed to be done if we can say that they be upgraded
to proper sf2 standards.
The FM still needs a lot of tuning, since empty masses are wrong,
as are aerodynamic Coef etc. They can go up to 250 km/h top speed but don't be fooled,
it's not because of excess power...
Be in mind that these are NOT complete add-on, just corrected data.ini for sf2 use.
You need to go the Yankee air pirate webpage to donwload them. The -B/D models are part
of the basic pack, however if you want the -E you need to download exp pack 3 or helipack 1.
The way they are they may be not perfect for playing a campaign with them,
however are more than adequate as AI additions to vietnam missions/campaigns.
The credit go to
- YAP for the complete model
- Yakarov79 for his help to make them sf2 compatible.

******************IMPORTANT******************
This addon works only with my WeaponPACK (included). All of weapon stations are made as specific station code and will work only with this weapon pack. Of course you can edit and use any other weapons availalbe.
Standard commands:
LANDING GEAR - Nose light deploy/retract at any speed. Don't forget to retract before shooting on hard weapons settings)
ANIMATION 10 - Show/hide doors. If ever you will fly in cold enviroment and feel uncomfortable, you can fly with front doors instaled, It doesn't do anything. And will not help you. It's just for different look in winter.
ANIMATION 1 - 'NVG'
You can realy fly low and slow.
I am sugesting to fly low on 40-50% of throttle. around 45degree vector control, use pulse rudder to control left right, it is realy easy. With little practice you can even hoover. Without fake flaps and airbrakes.
Important here to control is using rudder and vector thrust control.
Fun is skiding between buildings in cities.
Fuel. Remeber it is small chopper. And it can carry only around 54 US Gals of fuel. I belive it is enough for around 2 hours of flight here maybe little more.
Cockpits.
Since photos of interior of this two early 160th SOAR birds are extremly rare and usualy low quality for now cockpits are just "guess" cockpits. Based on these low quality photos, some MD500D, Hughes 369D manuals, guessing.
AH-6F.
Based on MD500D series. 9 airframes aquired by 160thSOAR probably in 1984 since all airframes are build in 84. AH-6F still used old M27 subsytem with M134 minigun. And same mount as earlier AH-6C for 7 tube launcher.
Skins.
All serial numbers as far as I know are based on photos and US Army docs and are historicaly correct.
Weapons.
XM27 – M134 Minigun
M260 7 tube rocket launcher. First years of operation with mk40 rockets and later Mk66 rockets.
There is no gunsight for this helo. Acording to one of the pilots they were using "grease pencil mark on the windscreen, . And practicing shooting this way ". So here it is embeded to windshield. During night with 'nvg' it will glow a little.
MH-6E.
Special Forces insertion/extraction variant of MD369MD. Introduced in 1981. No weapons.
Skins.
All serial numbers as far as I know are based on photos and US Army docs and are historicaly correct.
Weapons:
Here you can load experimental beta version of specops.
Operator with M4 or M4/M203.
You have to land select "weapon" and deploy them on the ground and get away.
Remember this is beta. Lod model is "ehmm" and animations is just for try. I did not even finish skin. So do not expect fireworks.
There is also two weaponstations to carry M27 subsystem and M260 launcher. It is not to be used on MH-6E !!!
I added it here so player can pick AH-6C/F as wingman and have cover by wingman. Just fun in single mission.
MH-6E participated in Urgent Fury with AH-6C. It was not used in inital attack but used later for extraction wounded 82nd Airborne members to USS Guam.
Pilot by OldDiego poorly repainted by me.
Have fun.
Edit and report bugs.
