'Spad' Skins
By Guest
****457th TFS/301st TFW 'Spads' Skin Pack****
You have downloaded a little repainting job for two aircraft, including the first skin I ever did. These are meant and intended for the stock ThirdWire models of the F-105D_66 and F-4D_78.
These are skins for the 457th TFS/301st TFW, based out of Carswell AFB, right across the lake from my childhood home. I saw both of these aircraft fly over my home more often than I care to count. They are an Air Force Reserve unit. From Vietnam to 1981, they used the F-105D and then made the transition to the F-4, using the D-model first. Later, they would use the E-model Phantom, but only for a few years before finally converting over to the F-16C. Today, they operate the F-16C Block 30 and have seen service in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Read the README for installation instructions.

184th TFG F-4D Euro Scheme
By CSomers611
The 184th TFG operated F-4D's from 1979 till 1990 and was the F-4 Schoolhouse, operating 70 F-4D's in various paint schemes.
This includes (18) different F-4D's wearing the Euro Scheme variations which were seen on the flightline of McConnell AFB during the late 1970's and 1980's.
These were all verified by photos and do not represent a particular year but the entire F-4D Phantom tenure with the 184th. Being a schoolhouse, the 184th had Phantoms in every scheme, some Kansas Phantoms wore them all during their time at the unit while others did not.
Happy Phlying!

906th TFG/89th TFS Circa 1982-1989
By Dave
906th TFG/89th TFS Skin pack for F-4D_78. It covers all schemes used (SEA, Euro and Hill Grey) and uses the actual tail codes the unit flew with.
This skin represents the 906th TFG/89th TFS, USAF Reserve F-4D's from Wright Patterson AFB, Dayton Ohio circa 1982-1989.
The 89th traces its lineage to that of a troop carrier squadron during World War II, flying the Douglas C-47 Skytrain from 1943 – 1945. The 89th earned a Distinguished Unit citation for their efforts in the air assault during the D-Day invasion of France on the 6th of June 1944. The 89th flew throughout the European campaign including the Battle of the Buldge. The squadron was stationed at Baer Field, IN, Sedalia AAFLD, MO, Laurin –Maxton AAB, NC, and various fields throughout the European Theater. The 89th also flew various types of gliders during the same period including the CG-4, CG-13 and the British made Horsa 1-A. Missions included airlift, airdrop, air evacuation and glider towing.
After the conclusion of WWII, the 89th was deactivated. In 1949 the 89th was activated in the Air Force Reserve as a Troop Carrier Squadron (medium). The unit flew the C-45 Expediter which was a military version of the Beechcraft Model 18 commercial transport. The squadron was stationed at Offutt AFB, NE, during the period.
The 89th also flew the C-46 Commando along with the C-45. The C-46 was a variant of the Curtis CW-20 commercial transport. The Commando carried more cargo than the famous C-47 and offered better performance at higher altitudes, but required more maintenance and had a higher loss rate. The C-46 was also flown by the 89th at Offutt AFB, NE.
The C-47 was flown again by the 89th during the same period as the C-45 and C-46 at Offutt AFB, NE. Missions included air, land, airdrop, and air evacuation. The 89th was ordered to active service during the Korean Conflict for a brief period in 1951.
In 1952, the 89th became a fighter-Bomber Squadron moving to Mitchell Field in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The unit began flying the F-51. The F-51 Mustang was best remembered by its former designation as the P-51. The F-51 was powered by a Packard built Merlin V-1650 piston engine producing 1600 hp.
In 1954 the 89th converted to the Lockheed T-33 Shooting Star. The T-33 was the first jet aircraft the 89th flew. Developed from the single seat P-80 fighter by lengthening the fuselage three feet to allow for a second cockpit. The squadron flew the T-33 at the same time as the F-51 and the F-80 at Mitchell Field, WI.
In 1955 the 89th transitioned to the fighter version of the T-33, the F-80. The F-80 was flown in conjunction with the T-33 at Mitchell Field, WI.
In 1982 the 89th Fighter Squadron reactivated flying the F-4D Phantom II. The 89th flew the –D model, which had an upgraded radar, inertial navigation and other improvements. Missions for the 89th included air-to-air, air to ground, formation and air refueling. The F-4 was affectionately known as the Rhino and was incorporated into the squadron insignia.
In 1989 the 89th converted to the F-16 Fighting Falcon. The F-16 was the most numerous front line fighters from the mid- 1980’s to the 1990’s. The 89th flew the –A and –B model block 10 series airplanes. The –B model was a two seat version of the –A. The 89th F-16A/B’s were powered by Pratt and Whitney F-100-PW-200 turbofan engine producing 25,000 lbs. of thrust with afterburner.
In 1994, the 89th Fighter Squadron was deactivated. The unit was immediately reactivated as the 89th Airlift Squadron and became half of the newly reactivated 445th Airlift Wing. The squadron took on the new mission of strategic long-range cargo transport starting with the C-141C in 1998. In 2005/2006 it converted to the C-5A Galaxy and in 2011 received its first C-17A Globemaster III aircraft. The mission of the 89th Airlift Squadron is to deliver personnel and cargo, on time, anywhere in the world.
To install just move the folders to your:

Thanks to Sundowner for the skin. Thanks to DA for all the help getting these skins right.

Alternative F-4G(B) skin
By Muesli
Hi,
Just something I whipped up real fast after I saw the loading screen of the renewed F-4G (65-66 USN)...
I noticed it wasn't overall green, but resembled the lizard scheme very much. So I fiddled around with
some different available skins (I think the lizard skin is TW and other parts came from the green standard skin of the aircraft)
and quickly made this to add some variation in an almost real life manner...
Credits and thanks to Wrench and Kevin Stein for the F-4G USN

About The Mirage Factory Rebuilt
Back in the early days of Wings Over series modding The Mirage Factory, lead by bpao was the peak of modding excellence. Many of their models are still heavily in
use today, 15 years later and still amongst the very best. This despite the team not creating any new mods since the passing of Oliver Anguille in 2009.
But time does move on, and the next generation of modders have ideas, techniques and tools not available back then. With the help of some of the original
modellers (who have copies of the original max files) we can update these fine aircraft for the 2020s. Rebuilt for new terrains and campaigns that were
just hopeful wishes over a decade ago.
The Mirage in the logo is camoflaged, much like the real aircraft in later service. The "HD" has been replaced
with "Rebuilt" as what was HD in the 2010s is jsut standard today. Finally, the new logo thanks Oli, both for the aircraft that are still relevant today
and for the inspiration he's given to the modders that followed him.
on behalf of The Mirage Factory (original and rebuilt) I thank you for downloading this mod, and hope you enjoy it.

Creek Klaxon '86: Air National Guard Deployment to Ramstein AB 1986
Creek Klaxon '86: Air National Guard Deployment to Ramstein AB 1986
This mod is a simple skin and decal set to represent Creek Klazon; an ANG deployment from April 1986 through March 1987 while the resident 86th Tactical Fighter Wing was transitioning from the F-4E to the F-16C Block 25. Crews from many ANG squadrons rotated out over the course of the year, while three units sent three aircraft each to support the Zulu Alert interception mission. These airframes came from California's 194th FIS, Minnesota's 179th FIS and North Dakota's 178th FIS, all with air defense missions in the United States and all donating F-4D aircraft in the colorful Air Defense Gray paint scheme.
Also included in this mod is terrain mods to allow pairs take offs at Ramsein AB, and a mod to plug into NATO Fighters 5 so that you can fly the 1986 campaign with this unit (they were historically there during the timeframe)

DLC21 USAF F-4 Skinpack Decalpack and Ini tweeks
This corrects one of the main faults of the USAF Skinpack in the DLC store, white tailcodes! I also have included many additional units as well as a Word document detailing which tactical units flew the Phantom in its later service with the USAF. I also have included many of the improvements from my previous post Vietnam pack, as well as my mostly finished squadronlist.ini. That ini is set up so that there will be minimal interuption from future patches, and DOES include all tactical Phantom phlyers, at least in US service.
NOTE: all paint schemes came about in 1978 or later. as such i have not included any units that did not fly the Phantom in that timeframe. If you pick a Phantom unit that changed over after 1974, it will have a blank tail!!!
ALSO NOTE: a few of the ADC units (like the 111th FIS of the Texas ANG) used a different system for serial numbers than the skins in here. Please read the document on Phantom units before griping that i missed someone!!!
Installation is same as usual, unzip, copy to mod folders and allow overwrite.
Finally, with one exception I have not included the skins themselves. To all the oldtimers here, i know that skins are usually fairgame. However, given that is the point of this DLC, i opted not to include the whole skin to avoid pissing off TK and getting skins locked.The exception is the F-4C_67, as he did not include that in the DLC.
I hope that you all enjoy this mod.

EF-4C, 81st TFS, USAFE
By Wrench
EF-4C 'Phantom' WW IV 81st TFS Skin Pak
-- For FULL-4 Merged SF2 (Prefered) and/or SF2:V/SF2:E =ONLY!!!=
(it can acutally be used in any SF2 install that has the access to the F-4C_67)
This is to fill a request presented to me by daddyairplanes, to add a new skin for the 81st TFS, 52nd TFW, USAFE, based at Spangdahlem AFB from 1973-79ish, where they were the only SEAD-dedicated squadron in theatre. The EF-4Cs were replaced by F-4G WW Vs, which were in turn replaced by F-16CJs. Even though the 81st now flys Hogs, but, ya get the picture! <grin>
It is designed to add to the "sf2 EF-4C Update Pak" released recently. You can find the update pak at CombatAce, at the following URL:
http://combatace.com/files/file/11630-ef-4c-phantom-wild-weasel-iv-for-sf2/
It should be noted, that =THIS= skin is for a European based squadron, so if installilng into a stand-alone SF2:E -make double damn sure you have the F-4C_67 avialabile on you planes list!!!!! (Merged installs, and those users that have run the SF2E.exe to create a SF2E mods folder should have the aircraft already) When in doubt about mods folders, consult the CA Knowledge Base.
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 (read: drag and drop).
Good Hunting!

Enhancement Pack for TW DLC 23 - F-4N Phantom II
DLC 23 F-4N PHANTOM II ENHANCEMENT PACK
This is a mod to enhance the DLC F-4N. It includes data.ini's for smoky engines,
realistic weapons and drooping ailerons. It also features many skins that have been
touched up using Sundowners templates. Finally it has 100 historic BuNo's, and
several styles and colors for modexes. It covers a wide spread of N users without
becoming completely OCD.
Included are:
-3 F-4N aircraft (N, N_77, N_80) to help keep some order and smallness of file size. skins covered include USN/MC Grey, Overall Gloss
Gloss Gull Gray(circa 1980), Lo Viz Grey (1981) and TPS (1983). Ferris and Heater Ferris were not used for the most part on N models.
-my expanded squadronlist.ini. tho many units are stock in here, several will not show without this. Plus it's got room for anybody you
can think of and then some more.
-an expansive NavalF4 decal folder to cover all years after Vietnam (EXCEPT 1976). not all will be full right now, but
they will be filled up with some future planned mods.
-a Numbers folder with Buno's for the N, and several styles of Modex's
-smokier engine effects for the J-79s.
-J-79 engine sounds
REQUIRED: The TW F-4N Phantom II, DLC 23.
INSTALLATION:
same as any other mod. unzip the file, paste into your mod folder, allow overwrites for old copies
of the smoke effects and the F-4N.ini.
CREDITS
First is a HUGE THANK YOU to mytai01. much of this work is based off of his model for decalling the F-4 Phantom.
Some of the nn tgas are even lifted off his B model skins and adjusted into N models BuNos. Those that have seen
his work will recognize much influence in this mod.
Thanks to Sundowner for his templates. With a Sundowner template, you have to work hard to screw up a skin!!!!!
As with all my Phantom mods, thank you to Spillone104 for his J-79 effects. I do like them so, and hope
you will as well.
thanks to JSF_Aggie for his drooping aileron edit for the data.ini. although TK fixed that in the July
2013 patch, i have not patched there yet and know that many still haven't. for the time being the mod
uses JSF_Aggie's work.
Thanks to Gerwin, Blade, Wrench, Dave, mppd, Ghost531 and many others who have given me answers and resources
to many technical questions the last year and a half I've been working this.
special thanks to Ghost531 and CrazyHorseB34 for getting me off my fourth point of contact when stalled
on this project
and as always thanks to TK who developed both the game and the particular DLC, then left enough work for
likes of me to fill in.
again thank you for downloading this mod and i hope that you enjoy it!

About The Mirage Factory Rebuilt
Back in the early days of Wings Over series modding The Mirage Factory, lead by bpao was the peak of modding excellence. Many of their models are still heavily in use today, 15 years later and still amongst the very best. This despite the team not creating any new mods since the passing of Oliver Anguille in 2009.
But time does move on, and the next generation of modders have ideas, techniques and tools not available back then. With the help of some of the original modellers (who have copies of the original max files) we can update these fine aircraft for the 2020s. Rebuilt for new terrains and campaigns that were just hopeful wishes over a decade ago.
The Mirage in the logo is camoflaged, much like the real aircraft in later service. The "HD" has been replaced with "Rebuilt" as what was HD in the 2010s is jsut standard today. Finally, the new logo thanks Oli, both for the aircraft that are still relevant today
and for the inspiration he's given to the modders that followed him.
on behalf of The Mirage Factory (original and rebuilt) I thank you for downloading this mod, and hope you enjoy it.
