1956 Operation Kadesh 
P-38L Lightning Israeli Air Force (101 Squadron) 'What If?'
A simple Israeli Air Force Skin for Wolf257's P38. This is a 'what if' skin (Israel never purchased or operated the P38 AFAIK) so this is just for fun! Tested on Wings Over Israel only but I imagine it will work on SFP1/SFG although you might need to play with the decals first!
 
Enjoy!

This is a fictional Desert Camo scheme for the Westland Whirlwind recently released by Veltro2K with markings for the famous No.6 squadron ('The Flying Can-Openers') of the Royal Air Force. For SFP1/SFG/WOV/WOE/WOI just drop the folder called '6d' into your Whirlwind folder and go and open some cans! For SF2 users things are a bit more tricky but you probably know your way around the different file structure by now. BTW the Whirlwind flies really nicely in SF2 but make sure you've got your throttle to zero before you start!
 
Anyway, many thanks to Veltro2K for this little gem and also to Syrinx for the template and for the serial number decals - to which I've added another two to make a baker's dozen plus I've knocked up some reasonably authentic squadron codes.

Grumman F4F-4 Wildcat, VF-41 'Operation Torch' Skin & Ini Pak
 
for SF/SFG/WoV/WoE WW2: MTO Installs
 
=Version 2.0 - will update and REPLACE the original from 2005=
 
This package contains a new skin, and some minor data & cockpit ini mods for Pasko's F4F-4 "Wildcat". It is designed to TOTALLY replace the VF-41 version released several years ago.
 
The skin represents VF-41 "Red Rippers" based aboard USS RANGER during Operation Torch, the Invasion of North Africa (well, actually, we all know it was Morocco and Tunisia, but why quibble???)
 
This new skin, like the other Wildcat skins I've done recently, is from my home-grown template, with all redrawn panel, rivet and other details. It has been resized to 1024x, so has a bit more detail than the older 512 version. All new decals, of the correct font and size have been created for the Modex and BuNums. The BuNums ARE for -4 Wildcats, but I was unable to acertain WHICH exact numbers were used by VF-41 during Torch. So, consider them as 'generic'; accurate, but generic <grin>
 
For those that haven't updated their MTO install's F4F-4, all the inis and sounds from the PTO Wildcat Upgrade are included; new data, cockpit and Main ini --so make sure you follow the instructions below!!!
The cockpit ini makes use of a new WW2 N-3 gunsight tga.
Like it's PTO brother, the canopy has been switched to an animation key (shift/0). The wingfold stays the same as originally issued; you use the bomb-bay control key (cntrl/O). As always, all the lights have been updated with accurate running, formation and landing lights. Also, the landing gear retraction sound is now the 'rachet' noise, as heard in the PTO upgrades.
A new WoE-style 'carrier deck' hangar screen, JUST for this mod is included (as it uses the VF41 skin)
 
As always, it's reccomended you unzip this package to a temp folder or your desktop, or somewhere's else that's easy to find to gain access to the rest of this readme for full, detailed install instructions.
 
Good Hunting!

SF1 Korean War Corsair Pack
For the TMF F4U7 / AU-1 Corsair.
These are converted/repainted skins and ini file tweaks of Wrench's SF2 Corsairs paks for use in a SF1 Korea War install.  This is a complete aircraft pak containing 4 different Corsair versions and 23 unit skins.

The skins are in .bmp format at 1024 x 1024 pixels each.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks and credit go to (from Wrench's original read me file).

and also to Crusader, Mod Mafia Leader (xTMF)
RussoUK for the engine sound, borrowed from the P-47N
Me, for alot of the skins and decals and some ini reworking and assembling the package, and bottle washing.
More Skins by CrazyHorseB34 (thanks man!)."
And to Geary - for new lines, rivets, repaints, conversions, ini tweaks, a few decals, adding .50 cal painted gun ports to F4U-4, etc...
But, especially to Wrench for all the work he did in putting the original Corsair paks together.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
I used parts and pieces from Wrench's sf2_kaw_f4u4_cosairs_pak, his sf2_f4u5_corsair_pak, his sf2_kaw_corsairs file and his SF1 f4u4b_pak to get some of these tweaks to work in SF1.

---------- Installation Instructions --------------------------
If you have any of these aircraft installed, you must rename or remove them.
INSTALLATION:  Unzip to a folder/place of your choice.  Copy, Move, Drag-n-Drop or do whatever you wish to get the folders into their corresponding folders in your SF1 Korea install. Fly.

If you don't have the correct weapons, look in the many weapons packs available here at CombatAce.

There's a repainted m38_jeep.bmp that the 500lb and 1000lb bomb use as a skin.  If you want to use it, just drop it into your weapons folder and overwrite the old one.
-----------------------------------------------
I've included a repainted drop tank to match the aircraft skin color.  Installation instructions are in the Weapons folder and in the SF1 Knowledge Base.

SF1 P-51D ETO Aircraft and Skins
 
For those of us that still fly SF1 and noticed there were very few P-51D ETO skins that use the decal system:
 
3 skins for Wolf257's P-51D.
 
343rd FS, 55th FG.
363rd FS, 357th FG.
487th FS. 352nd FG.
 
There is no nose art with these skins.
 

Thanks and credit go to:
Wolf257 - for the P-51D model.
Pappychksix - for the 343rd skin I repainted from his SF1 Evelyn skin.
Amariani - for the decals from his SF2 P-51D ETO skins.
Geary - for template, paints, repaints, etc...
I don't know who created the WW II pilot or the drop tanks. They've been around since the dinosaurs. But thanks to those creators.
 
If you wish to paint your own skins, the template is available for the asking. Just PM me. It is in .psd format.
 
These skins are in .bmp format and were created at 2048 pixels. They are 12MB each but can be downsized for those of you who can't use them this large.
