with the ESM fairings on the cheeks and chin. 31 Historical serial numbers are incluled for USAF, 18 for NATO.
Skins are FAIRLY historical although accurate representation of units by tail stripe was difficult due to
lack of Photos with documentation.

INCLUDED
E-3A with a 77, 83, ODS and 94 skin as well as NATO

ESM and fakepilot objects for pilots folder

CREDITS
TMF- the original 3D modeland original USAF skin.
Florian- NATO skins and tweeks to USAF. While I prefer decals, these are good enough I only had to do
serial numbers and nose badges. Also provided the original inspiration for the ESM pods part of the mod
yakarov79- the fake pilot ESM pods
Dave- consultation and approvals on the original project
Daddyairplanes- serial numbers, new arrangement for skins, general ini editing

23d Wing Pope AFB 1994

23d Wing Pope AFB 1994
In the 1990s, the USAF experimented with composite wings that would have everything needed within a single unit for deployment into a regional fight.
The 23 Wing was formed in 1992 to bring about this vision, as applied to direct support of US Army forces. By 1994, 4 squadrons were ready at Pope AFB NC
to support the US Army's 82d ABN DIV at neighboring Fort Bragg. The 2d and 41st Airlift Squadrons flying the C-130E Hercules, the 74th Fighter Squadron flying
the F-16C/D Block 40 Vipers, and the 75th Fighter Squadron flying the A-10A Warthog. As is tradition for the 23d Wing, which traces its lineage to the
Flying Tigers of World War 2, every aircraft in the wing sported a sharks mouth.
This mod brings together everything needed to get the 23d Wing into the fight. Complete aircraft (including a newly revamped F-16D Block 40 from ravenclaw007), period specific weapons, sounds and effects.
Included
Viper Team F-16C Block 40 and 75th FS skin
ravenclaw007/Viper Team F-16D Block 40 and 75th FS skin
Dels C-130E_SKE with 2d ALS, 41st ALS Grey and 23d Wing Euro 1 skins
Various period specific weapons (actively in use 1994-1996)
Installation
unzip folder * drop into mod folder of your choice * allow overwrites
Known Issues
The C-130 and its weapons are primarlily eye candy. There are unfortuneatly no paratroop drop missions in SF2, and so if you want to drop say 1/325 INF onto a drop zone,
you will need to select a recon mission and punch those partarooper out by hand
I have been having issues getting the LAPES Sheridan tank to create a "crater" after dropping. it is still included for the visuals of puching a tank out the back of a Herk,
and because there was still an Airborne Armor Bn at Bragg in 1994. But at this time the tank will disappear on contact with the ground

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
UPDATE 31 DEC 20220
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
After further research on other Hog units, and closer examination of the TW model, i have included Spectre8750's A-10A_93 model with updated numbers list.
I also changed several serials after determining that they were at other bases in 1995. The deduction I used to find the C-130 serials didnt work as well
for the Hogs. But it is fixed and I even discovered two Tiger Shark Hogs that were still in Euro 1 camoflage at the time. The A-10A_93 features two skins for
the bulk of the gray birds and the two green ones.

T-45A Goshawk for SF2

By Wrench

T-45 "Goshawk" Skins/Decals and Ini Update Pak

-- For SF2, Any & All --

The package is a slight revamping of RussoUK's T-45A "Goshawk" USN trainer. This complete full aircraft package incudes all new decals, a slightly 'noised' version of the skin, and some minor ini tweeks for SF2. The cockpit has been replaced by using the stock A-4B, as these don't have a radar. However, the radar-ranging gunsight and an audio-only RWR have been added. New decals for VT-1 have been created, as have BuNum tags.

Other ini edits switch the canopy to a manual animation key (use Shift/0 to open close), and a somewhat fancifull loadout ini, with loadouts for the STRIKE, RECON, CAS & ARMED_RECON profiles. (see Notes below for comments). Self-defense Sidewinders are carried on all mission profiles.
The Aden gunpod has been changed to allow for USN usage, and a substitute 100 gallon drop tank has been added. Both weapons are included; all other weapons fits are stock, with the exception of the CBU-59, so you'll need Gunny's Ordanance Shop for that.

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.

Happy Landings!

ps: be a perfect addition to the Mescalero Training Range, too!

SENTRY : Aircraft of the NATO E-3A Component

                                                                                      SENTRY: Aircraft of the NATO E-3A Component
   Since 1983, NATO has operated international squadrons of E-3A Sentrys, commonly referred to as AWACS from Geilenkirchen AB. Registered in Luxembourg due to international law, the NATO AEW&C Force held watch during the final decade of the Cold War, participated in operations over the Balkans and Libya, and assisted with US homeland defense after the attacks on 9/11/01.
   During the late 1990s, the NATO Sentry fleet gained upgrades in line with the USAF's Block 30/35 upgrades. These included distinctive fairings on the aircraft chin, cheek and tail housing ESM equipment. The aircraft retained their original E-3A designations after the upgrades.
   For several years, retired 707 airliners were also operated as trainers to reduce E-3 flying hours and as transports to support NAEWF missions as well as other NATO missions when available. These aircraft were designated CT-49A and operated unti the mid 2010s.
           Included
This mod includes skin for the E-3A, an E-3A_98 aircraft with fake pilot upgrades and CT-49A trainer aircraft, as well as decals and a set of ESM pods for the newer E-3A
           Installation
unzip mod, add contents of "2 Mod Folder" to mod folder of your choice. allow overwrites
           Known Issues
- The Sentry aircraft pull hard to port (left) when taking off. This only occurs when the player is hand flying the aircraft, when AI or autopilot flies this is not an issue
- The cockpit is not a great match for the aircraft, however SF2 does not support any of their (E-3 or CT-49) original missions as player flyable and they were originally intended to be eye candy. Until we get a 3d modeller that wants to do a new E-3 or even 707 proper pit, this is how it will be.

52nd Fighter Wing 1994

52nd Fighter Wing 1994
This mod brings together all of the aircraft of the 52nd Fightere Wing at Spangdahlem AB, Federal Republic of Germany in 1994. It features historic serials and skins for the era
   Included
A-10A_93, F-16C/D_B50, F-15C/D_91 aircraft
Sounds, effects and decals for all of the above
Assorted Weapons
Special Fuel Tanks to allow selection from different aircraft.
   Installation
unzip, add contents of "2 Mod Folder" to the mod folder of your choice. allow overwrites
NOTE ON SPECIAL TANKS AND MIXED FLIGHTS
I HAVE SET UP A SERIES OF ROCKET/FUEL TANKS (MINUS THE ROCKETS) SO THAT FUEL TANKS OTHER THAN WHAT IS NATIVE TO THE AIRCRAFT CAN BE SELECTED, ALLOWING MIX FLIGHTS OF AIRCRAFT. THE TANKS FOR EACH AIRCRAFT IS IDENTIFIED BY A NUMBER AT FRONT (IE "370 GAL TANK") WHILE THE NON REGULAR ONES HAVE THE AIRCRAFT NAME IN FRONT (IE F-16 370 GAL TANK). THEY WILL APPEAR FOR THE MOST PART AT THE BOTTOM OF THE MENU SCROLL
IF YOU CHOOSE TO DO THIS, IT IS HIGHLY RECCOMENDED THAT YOU SELECT THE F-16C, THEN CHANGE TO THE F-15 OR A-10 IN THE LOADOUT MENU SCREEN ( flightname 1-1 IF YOU WANT TO CHANGE THE LEAD). THIS WILL ALLOW YOU TO USE ALL AVAILABLE WEAPONS, AS THE F-16 CAN CARRY ANYTHING THE A-10 OR F-15 CAN.

KC-10A Extender

The KC-10 Extender

I made this mod after noticing that the aircraft in ODS was
using a skin that was not use IRL until 3-4 years after Desert
Storm. This fixes up skins for the Douglas (White over Grey with
Blue cheatlines), Shamu (Green/Gray over Gray)and Gunship Gray
schemes. I also added historical serial numbers to each skin, and
did the unit markings tied into each serial number. (for you advanced
modders out there, tied it as a 2 level rather than a 1 level). This will
allow several units to appear when they show in game on the ramp.

Installation
just add Objects folder to your mod folder. If installing into an ODS
install, allow overwrites.

Additional Warning
*************************************************************************
this really should be left as an AI controlled plane. it is not really
for any missons that would be represented in game anyhow.
i just skinned it up to satisfy a little historical accuracy in the game.
*************************************************************************

Marcfighters..........the model and original skin(served as a base for template)
eburger68.............revised data.ini that made the FM more manageable
myself................all other skins, template and tgas
TK....................the game itself, and our ability to keep modding

special thanks to Muesli, for helping me out trying to get the Dutch in the game as well.

suggestion to those with mission editor:
why not set up teh tankers on an orbit at a waypoint of a mission?
then you could "simulate" tanking as part of the missions......

Updated Boeing 757-200

Updated 757-200 for SF2

This is an update of YEYEYEs SF1 release for use in SF2. I have applied my usual technique to incorporate multiple airlines on one skin per era, with 4 eras from release in the
mid 1980s through the mid 1990s. More may become available later but templates are included for those that don't want to wait on me.

Installation
unzip, open folder titled "Mod Folder" and allow overwrites.
IF YOU HAVE A PREVIOUSLY MODDED FOLDER
1. delete flight and terrains from "Mod Folder". 2 open the "Specials Folder", insert the nations txt file into your Nations.ini and the terrain txt file into your
(whatever)Nations.ini in the needed terrain folder.
templates to wherever you keep files for modding, or delete if you do not desire to mod it

Known Issues
- It is a bit slow on the pickup. while it can take off from a smaller airbase, best to stick to larger fields
- It features the same pit as the 767 and other airliners. we do not have an in house pit that is more appropriate at the moment and so most airliners are stuck looking like generic WWII
bomber pits
- It has a seam on the bottom of the model that is very pronounced given the decal based marking system i use. however this should not be to noticeable unless you approach it from below.
When parked on the ground or viewed from the side or above the seam is not noticeable.
- for all above faults, remember: it is meant as eye candy, not an operational bird! enjoy taking off from Keflavik or Rhein Main and seeing many airlines parked on one ramp

AT-6B for SF2 Version 2.0

By FastCargo

Readme for the Raytheon AT-6B Texan II. For Strike Fighters 2 Series.

Version 2.0
Changelog:
-Cleaned up some areas on the 3d model plus increased the detail in almost all areas including AT-6B specific items plus the addition of extra details. (antennas etc.)
-The skin's texture size and detail has been increased, plus changed to .jpg format.
-Weapon modifications in _DATA & Loadout.ini files.
-Included the AGM-114L as a CGR and added Hellfire rails to the 3d model to overcome the issue of engaging moving targets.
-New hangar and loading screens.
-New cockpit glass reflection texture.

Version 1.5

MAJOR upgrade in cockpit and model by Dels. Much closer to actual AT-6B appearance and specifications.
More weapons tweaking by FastCargo.

Version 1.1

Added Sounds
HUD Fixed

Original model, FM, drop tanks, etc. based on Dels PC-9.
Idea, decals, skins and coordination by Dave.
Addons and weapons by FastCargo.

This version is for the SF2 version of ThirdWire sims only!

Installation:

Copy the Objects directory into your ThirdWire mods folder. Allow overwrites (if any). The only alteration to basic stock or the current SF2 weapons are a slight tweaking of the basic Stinger missile.

Notes on this release:

The FM isn't perfect, but will work pretty good as long as you remember it is not an F-22...don't try to pull like you are one. Also, for some reason, certain racks will only load through the loadout.ini, but not in the pull down menu. Haven't found why this acts this way yet.

Canopy is activated with animation key #10.

Notes on the aircraft, from airforce-technology.com:

http://www.airforce-technology.com/projects/at-6b-light-attack/

"The multirole AT-6 will be capable of performing missions including: net-centric ISR with the ability for precise geo-registration, streaming video and datalinks; light attack including combat search and rescue (CSAR), close air support, forward air control and convoy escort; homeland defence (border security), port security, and counter-narcotics operations; and civil missions such as disaster area reconnaissance, search and rescue, and firefighting.

The AT-6B is equipped with a sensor suite that can include a variety of electro-optical, infrared, laser and hyper-spectral sensors, for example the Wescam MX-15Di. The Boeing joint helmet-mounted cueing system, in service with the USAF and US Navy, can be fitted for targeting.

There are six wing-mounted hardpoints for stores. With its MIL-STD 1760 smart weapons interface, the AT-6 can be armed with a variety of weapons including 0.50 calibre machine gun pod; air-to-ground missiles like Hellfire and Maverick; AIM-9 Sidewinder air-to-air missiles; and munitions including Paveway II / enhanced Paveway II / Paveway IV guided bombs, joint direct attack munition (JDAM), small diameter bomb (SDB) and 2.75in rocket pods."

In short, the AT-6B is a LIGHT attack aircraft, perfect for COIN ops, FAC, etc. Operate it with this in mind you'll find you'll have a lot of fun with it.

Raytheon T-6C Texan II for SF2

By dtmdragon

Raytheon T-6C Texan II for SF2

This is the T-6C Texan II as used by No 14 Squadron RNZAF for the SF2 series of games.

The T-6C Texan II is an upgraded version of the T-6B with wing hard points, intelligence/ surveillance/ reconnaissance capabilities, a digital glass cockpit that includes a Head-Up Display, six multi-function displays, Hands On Throttle And Stick.

I created this version of the T-6 by using Dels amazing AT-6B and removing the parts that differentiate the AT-6B from the T-6C. This works perfectly as the T-6C is the upgraded version of the T-6B, which is what the AT-6B is the armed version of.

Instillation:

Extract the files and place into your mods folder.

Bonus Skins:

Included in the 'Bonus' folder are two what-if Grey RNZAF skins for the T-6C and Dels AT-6B.

Enjoy!

RCAF CC-130 Hercules Pack

By 1977Frenchie

C-130 pack for SF2

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Based on the C-130 Superpack made by Dels.

Original Dels plane can be found here : http://combatace.com/files/file/16427-c-130-hercules-superpack/
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

This is the CC-130 Hercules as used (''E'' models) and current (''H'' and ''J-30'' models) by the RCAF for the SF2 series of games.

To be used on Dels Hercules ONLY.

These skins represent the scheme used by the RCAF on their CC-130's E, H en J models.

The serial numbers in this skin pack along with planes numbers are real one's. Only exception on 2 serials on the ''H'' models. In this pack, serials 130343 and 130344 are as ''H'' model but it was in fact a ''H-30'' variant.

You will get the following skins in this package :

4 Wing, 436 Transport Squadron :

* Note : other squadrons used the Hercules, but the 436 is the only one operating the ''J'' model so this is what makes me select it.

CC-130E :
- Early scheme 1
- Early Scheme 2
- Early Scheme 3
- Camo Scheme
- Low-Viz Grey Scheme

CC-130H :
- Low-Viz Grey Scheme

CC-130J-30 :
- Low-Viz Grey Scheme (New color)

You will need to add the following to your Squadronlist.ini file which should be in your Flight AND Pilot Data folders. This is so the Unit Name shows up. (*NOTE* This is not essential). Make sure the XXX is replaced with the next
sequential number in your file:

[squadronXXX]
Name=436SQN
DisplayName=4 Wing, 436 Squadron
Nation=Canada

Two installation choice :

SKINS ONLY for ''H'' model (assuming you have the Dels Superpack Hercules already installed cause only the CC-130H is in his pack):

Copy the FOLDERS of the current pack objects/aircraft/CC-130H folder in your game aircraft/CC-130H folder.
Copy the FOLDERS of the current pack decals/CC-130H folder in your game decals/CC-130H folder.

Open the Textureset.ini and edit the file by adding the texture.ini lines. Don't forget to change the file path accordingly.

For the ''E'' and ''J-30'' models, follow the complete aircraft installation for the aircraft and decals folders ONLY.

COMPLETE AIRCRAFT :

Copy the RCAF CC-130'S PACK Objects/aircraft folders content to your game aircraft folder.
Copy the RCAF CC-130'S PACK Objects/decals folders content to your game decals folder.
Copy the RCAF CC-130'S PACK Objects/guns folder content to your game pilots folder.
Copy the RCAF CC-130'S PACK Objects/weapons folder content to your game weapons folder.
Copy the files in the RCAF CC-130'S PACK Object.
Copy the RCAF CC-130'S PACK Sounds folder content to your game sounds folder.

- Dels for the great C-130 superpack
- Myself for the decals and rework :)

Gunfighters! 366th Wing, Mountain Home's Mini Air Force in the 1990s

                                             Gunfighters!             366th Wing, Mountain Home's Mini Air Force in the 1990s
   In the 1990s, CSAF General Merril McPeak had a concept to test; expeditionary wings that had the entire range of capabilities to wage an air campaign. This lead to change for the 366th Fighter Wing, "Gunfighters", as they transitioned from a F-11 fighter unit to a composite wing, with bomber aircraft, tankers, and fighters specializing in air to air, SEAD and interdiction roles.
   The wing participated in several exercises and combat operations throughout the 1990s to validate the composite wing concept. Ultimately, economics of operating so many different aircraft types in one wing and base led to the consolodation of the Wing as a F-15E Strike Eagle unit.
   But, for about a decade, the Gunfighters hosted an entire mini air force, ready for its' nation's call to action. This mod is a tribute to that experiment.
       Installation
This package includes everything you need to get into action. Unzip the mod, ope the "2. Mod Folder", and place contents into your chosen mod folder. Allow overwrites as necessary.
