Sundowner's EF-4C Phantom II, Wild Weasel IV

     Sundowner's EF-4C Phantom II, Wild Weasel IV
this mod represents the F-4Cs that were modified to perform the Wild Weasel mission in the very early 1970s as they flew
over Vietnam, then after Vietnam and into the beginning of the 1980s with the Indiana Air National Guard
            Included
Three complete aircraft highlighting the Vietnam, post Nam and Indiana Air Guard era's of this aircrafts career

            Credits
Sundowner            2 new EF-4C model with all relevant parts built in, new F-4_MER rack
daddyairplanes            research, new skins and decals. ini edits
unknown author            who did the original 67th TFS decals. i used roughly half of them, but neither
                Sundowner nor Wrench can recall who's they originally were
cSomers611, nightshadeP/R     test team

a special thanks to Nyghtfall: my original request was for a new fakepilot model similar to the original mod
Nyghtfall came through in spades with a beautiful fake pilot model. The same day he sent that to me however,
Sundowner sent a full up model with all parts including the permanent strike cam in the Sparrow bay. While I
went with Sundowners approach instead, i still highly appreciate Nyghtfall taking the time to assist my original
request.
        Instructions
unzip, unload contents of "2 Mod folder" into mod folder of your choice.

Phinal Photos: RF-4C in USAF Service After Desert Storm: A TMF Rebuilt project

                                               Phinal Photos: RF-4C in USAF Service After Desert Storm
         A TMF Rebuilt project
This mod represents the phinal years of the Photo Phantom n USAF service. It includes a new RF-4C_91 model that features Sidewinder missile capability. While only a couple dozen RF-4Cs were wired for AIM-9 carriage, they served in the Alabama and Nevada Air National Guards while they did. Therefore, I placed the skins for those units in the _91 model's folder
            Required
a functional copy of any Strike Fighters 2 game except for SF2 North Atlantic (the only one without a native F-4 destroyed model)
The aircraft from the TMF Rebuilt RF-4C Late set, available here: https://combatace.com/files/file/18263-late-model-rf-4cs-photo-phantoms-after-vietnam/
(if you already downloaded this then you dont need to do it again)
            Included
3 RF-4C aircraft folders
- RF-4C_85: skins only (12th RS, 173rd RS Nebraska ANG)
- RF-4C_91: new aircraft with several Nevada and Alabama skins, and Sidewinder capability. Photo flash bays restricted to one or the other to make room for this capability, but photo flashes were not used as much in the phinal years.
- RF-4C_ARN_101: skin (12th RS) and data_ini adjustment (extends years to 1992 from original 1990)
2 decal folders
NOTE: most weapons, pilots, effects and sounds are already included in the original Rebuilt set. only AIM-9s for the _91 are included here

            Credits
-The Mirage Factory        the very original aircraft (see TMF Readme)
-ravenclaw_007             original model, RF-4 pit
-Sundowner                     further modifications to model and pit, effects for new photoflash bombs
-daddyairplanes          skins, tgas, multiple ini edits, creation of 4 distinct aircraft from one model
-guruu             sounds
-NightshadeP/R             testing. Nightshade often shows me my errors in screenshots he's just sharing for fun, while Menrva helps me with the more technical aspects
-Sundowner, ravenclaw_007,
yakarov79 and daddyairplanes    templates are a mix of layers as contributed by these four. compiled in current form by daddyairplanes
            Special Thanks
* to Sundowner for supporting this project. He was kind enough to hand me this ball and let me run with it and even make additional features as I requested them
* to ET Brown, Gary Chambers and other members of the 106th Tac Recon Squadron page on Facebook. These Alabama Air Guardsmen veterans helped greatly and the "106th RS 94" skin features the crew chiefs on the nose just as the real aircraft had in the final 6 months.
            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.

thank you for downloading this mod, i hope you enjoy phlying it as much as i did creating it

This model is a is yet another rebuild of the old TMF max files which I was working on from the very outset.
.
It is is no way designed to compete or to relpace the versions released by daddyairplanes, so dont try to use those skins on this model....the maps are different.
The RF4-C nose has had a complete rebuild since the DA version as the nose profile is completly wrong along with more accurate air conditioner intakes and camera windows etc, etc
The fuselage also got rebuilt to cure many shape issues and to give a more accurate undersides.
Too many small fixes to list
DO NOT INSTALL OVER ANY RF-4C-65 MODELS YOU MAY ALREADY HAVE..................re name this one!
Please read the readme....it's for your benefit not mine.

ALL work by ME ( Sundowner ) is now no longer covered by the CombatAce Freeware Licensing agreement.
What this means is that you can only use my work for your own use, you CANNOT re-upload it or any part of it. So please no copying of my skins for any use other than your own.
What we have here is an almost completely new RF-4B model, there are 3 separate versions to choose from all with small differences and skins.
They are all from VMCJ-1 which was the only RF-4B unit that was stationed in Vietnam for almost the full duration of the war.
Please read the readme as I'm struggling with using a keyboard at the moment.....

SF2 F-4G(B) USN Pack

By Wrench

SF2 F-4G(B) USN Pack 8/28/2019
-For SF2, Any and All (Full Merged Reccomended)
This is a NEW aircraft, the F-4G(B) for the US Navy. There were F-4Bs modified with a automatic carrier landing system during their Oct 1965-June 1966 deployment in South East Asia aboard USS Kitty Hawk. They were painted in an experimental green camoflauge, as were many other aircraft of CVW-11 in this time frame.
Once upon a time, I know we had this aircraft for 1stGen SF, but have been unable to locate it. So, I rebuilt it, and now present it you all to enjoy. This is a complete aircraft, based off the F-4B_65, so make use you have this bird in your inventory. This aircraft uses all stock 3w items.
The skin is in jpg format, in 2048x, from Sundowner's templates. 12 100% historically accurate Bunum decals are included. Decal randomization is TRUE. This aircraft is given a full year's operational time frame, "1965-1966" in the data ini, even if not historically correct (read: easier). New, aircraft specific hangar and loading screens are provided.
Is should be noted, this mod was started in 2011, and got lost. I do NOT remember who created the original skin I worked from, or the decals (which have been refreshed to remove ghosting around the edges), So I cannot take full credit for this mod (see "Notes" for more speculations).
When in-game, on the aircraft selection drop down, you'll see:
F-4G(B) Phantom II (USN)
This will differentiate it from the USAF F-4G Wild Weasel, and make sure you know it's a Navy bird.
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.

Happy Landings!

Enjoy,

Dan.

Background on the Rivet Haste project:

With the soft (slatted) wing, the pinkie switch (basically the very first HOTAS), and the TISEO modifications for the F-4E, the USAF realized it had the tools to make its fighter pilots more lethal. In the late summer of 1972, the Rivet Haste program was established. Rivet Haste would be the Air Force's acknowledgement that years of substandard training and poor doctrine had to be reversed. Rivet Haste combined the slatted wing, TISEO, and 556 mod of the F-4E and teamed them up with handpicked crews with combat experience over Vietnam. They were assembled at Nellis AFB and here the key of Rivet Haste would take place- intensive training with the new F-4Es against the secret MiG force that Air Force flew out of Tonopah north of Las Vegas. Each Rivet Haste crew were paired up to stay together through training to deployment for combat- this allowed the pilot and his WSO to develop their own system of coordination in the cockpit and carry that to combat. Six pilots and six WSOs were in each Rivet Haste group and each pilot/WSO would fly at least three missions against the MiGs at Tonopah. Each month, a new group of six pilots and six WSOs were assigned to Rivet Haste. Crews assigned to Rivet Haste saw it as a quantum leap in air combat training that the USAF had never had before. Unfortunately they arrived in Vietnam to late to score any air-to air-kills and only flew a handful of Linebacker II missions before the end of the war.

F-4A Phantom II

By KamilP

This pack includes:

F-4A Phantom II (block 1)
- J79-GE-2 engine (66,7 kN)
- AN/ALQ-50 radar

F-4A Phantom II (block 3)
- J79-GE-2A (71,6 kN)
- AN/APQ-72
- AAA-4 IR sensor
- Multiple bomb racks

I am not a 3D modeller, so I had to use stock F-4B model, with some removed nodes and some textures repainted to mask the most visible differences between F-4A and F-4B, so please consider this mod more as a stand-in, than a fully realistic model of the aircraft.

48th TFW F-4D

By Dave

F-4D 1971 from the 48th TFW, RAF Lakenheath By USAFMTL

Skins and Decals: Sundowner, Spinners (thanks for the decals and skins fellas)
Technical advisor: Fubar512
Historical Advisor: mppd
Weapons, from the SF2 weps pack via 331killerbee, via wpnssgt.....via alot of people.

This started out as a project 3 years ago and finally got around to getting it done. This mod has all 70 aircraft with real tail codes of the Liberty Wing. For the fun factor each squadron has all 70 decals assigned so you don't ever run out. The swapped fighters between squadrons so much they could all of been in each one at one time or another. Who knows.

This will create a whole new aircraft depicting the F-4D the Liberty Wing flew from late 1971 to 1977. So if you want to use it in a campaign those are the years you will be able to fly it before you have to use the F-111F. This comes with a custom strike loadout.

NOTE
i added the OPTION folder with the optional cockpit lod and removed air refueling lights because i use this lights in the standart cockpit as indicators for the drop tanks ( full - on , emty - off )
if you like the cockpit more " realistic " just overwrite the cockpit lod with the optional one

the HAF specific weapons are made based on the official weapons list from the Greek Air Force , weapons missing are the GBU-50 and AGM-154 they will be released on a later point in time
in the weapons pack you will not find any ECM-pods , the reason for that is simply that there is no evidence that the HAF is using any ECM-pods on the F-4E or F-16 except the build in DIAS system
if one day the HAF is using any type of ECM-pod i will add them to the pack
