Tu-22K
Version 1.0
Januar 2009
 
Tu-22K Missilecarrier
 
The Tu-22 was originally intended as a supersonic replacement for the Tupolev Tu-16 bomber. The design, designated Samolët 105 by Tupolev,
was drawn in 1954, but the first flight of the prototype did not take place until 21 June 1958. The availability of more powerful engines,
and the TsAGI discovery of the Area rule for minimizing transonic drag, led to the construction of a revised prototype, the 105A. This first
flew on 7 September 1959.
 
The first serial-production Tu-22B bomber, built at Kazan Factory No. 22, flew on 22 September 1960, and the type was presented in the
Tushino Aviation Day parade on 9 July 1961. It initially received the NATO reporting name 'Bullshot,' which was deemed inappropriate,
then 'Beauty,' which was felt to be too complimentary, and finally 'Blinder.' Soviet crews called it "Shilo" (awl) because of its shape.
Tu-22 Blinder landing
 
The Tu-22 entered service in 1962 and 1963, but it experienced considerable problems, leading to widespread inserviceability and a number
of crashes. Amongst its many faults was a tendency for skin heating at supersonic speed, distorting the control rods and causing poor
handling. The landing speed was 100 km/h (62 mph) higher than previous bombers and the Tu-22 had a tendency to pitch up and strike its
tail on landing, though this problem was eventually resolved with the addition of electronic stabilization aids. Even after some of its
teething problems had been resolved, the 'Blinder' was never easy to fly, and it was maintenance-intensive.
 
Pilots for the first Tu-22 squadrons were selected from the ranks of "First Class" Tu-16 pilots, which made transition into the new aircraft
difficult, as the Tu-16 had a co-pilot, and many of the "elite" Tu-16 pilots selected had become accustomed to allowing their co-pilots to
handle all the flight operations of the Tu-16 except for take-off and landings. As a consequence, Tu-16 pilots transitioning to the
single-pilot Tu-22 suddenly found themselves having to perform all the piloting tasks, and in a much more complicated cockpit. Many, if not
most of these pilots were unable to complete their training for this reason. Eventually pilots began to be selected from the ranks of the
Su-17 "Fitter" crews, and these pilots made the transition with less difficulty.
 
By the time the Tu-22B (Blinder-A) entered service it was already clear that its operational usefulness was limited. Despite its speed,
it was inferior to the Tu-16 in combat radius, weapon load, and serviceability. Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev felt that ballistic
missiles were the way of the future, and bombers like the Tu-22 were in danger of cancellation. As a result, only 15 (some sources say 20)
Tu-22Bs were built.
 
A combat-capable reconnaissance version, the Tu-22R ('Blinder-C'), was developed alongside the bomber, entering service in 1962. The Tu-22R
had an aerial refueling probe that was subsequently fitted to most Tu-22s, expanding their radius of operation. 127 Tu-22Rs were built, 62
of which went to the AVMF for maritime reconnaissance use. Some of these aircraft were stripped of their camera and sensor packs and sold
for export as Tu-22Bs, although in other respects they apparently remained more comparable to the Tu-22R than to the early-production
Tu-22Bs. A trainer version of the 'Blinder,' the Tu-22U ('Blinder-D') was fielded at the same time, with a raised cockpit for an instructor
pilot. The Tu-22U had no tail guns, and was not combat-capable. 46 were produced.
 
To try to salvage some offensive combat role for the Tu-22 in the face of official hostility, the Tu-22 was developed as a missile carrier,
the Tu-22K ('Blinder-B'), with the ability to carry a single Raduga Kh-22 (AS-4 'Kitchen') stand-off missile in a modified weapons bay. The
Tu-22K was deployed both by DA (Strategic Aviation) and AVMF (Naval Aviation).
 
The last Tu-22 subtype was the Tu-22P ('Blinder-E') electronic warfare version, initially used for ELINT electronic intelligence gathering.
Some were converted to serve as stand-off ECM jammers to support Tu-22K missile carriers. One squadron was usually allocated to each Tu-22
regiment.
 
The Tu-22 was upgraded in service with more powerful engines, in-flight refueling (for those aircraft that didn't have it initially), and
better electronics. The -D suffix (for Dalni, long-range) denotes aircraft fitted for aerial refueling.
 
Tu-22s were exported to Iraq and Libya in the 1970s. An Egyptian request was turned down after the cooling of Soviet-Egyptian relations
in the wake of the Yom Kippur War.

1.0 :

Mirage Factory F-4E Phantom ARN-101 aka "Arnie"

F-4N Phantom II Updat Pak -- for SF/WoV/WoE/ -maybe-WoI and possibly SF2??
 
This is a small package of ini to bring the F-4N more up-to-date with the last round of patching.
 
Included are updated data, loadout (more in the notes section on that below), cockpit and avionics ini.
The changes are mostly based in the data and loadout inis, bringing them up to spec with to the post-patch world. (ie: updated AI sections and flight models). I've included the main ini (ie: F-4N.ini) as I made a few small changes there as well.
Other additions are the inclusion of an on-board ECM suite, with chaff/flares and internal jammer.
 
This has been tested in WoE (my main Laboratory of choice..) As it was originally built for SF, no worries there. WoV should also be no problem. It -should- work in WoI, but you may have to extract the F-4B LODs and SHD, as well as all the F-4J cockpit bits, as I don't believe they're anywere in any of the WoI Object.cats.
For SF2 users ... don't know what you to tell ya...you're on your own! But it -should- work, given that the B & J Phantoms already exist in that game.
 
As I'm not a FM Guru, this is mostly based on educated guesswork, but it flys and fights fine for me!!
Obviously, you'll need to have the original aircraft to add this update to. It's available at Column 5's site:
 
http://www.column5.us/aircraft2.shtml
 
As you've come to expect, there's detailed install instructions, and an interesting "General Notes" section in the enclosed readme ... so, do yourself a favor, and read the curssed thing!!!!
 
Good Hunting!

Aircraft Information:
 
From Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_F-107
 
The North American F-107, nicknamed "Ultra Sabre", was North American Aviation's entry for a United States Air Force tactical fighter-bomber design competition of the 1950s. The F-107 incorporated many innovations and radical design features, and was based on the F-100 Super Sabre. The competition was eventually won by the F-105 Thunderchief, and the F-107 prototypes ended their lives as test aircraft.
 
The F-107A was originally designed as a tactical fighter-bomber version of the F-100, and was entered into a competition sponsored by the Air Force. Originally designated F-100B, the aircraft featured a recessed weapons bay under the fuselage, as well as an all-moving vertical fin and a control system which permitted the plane to roll at supersonic speeds.
 
The aircraft's most distinguishing feature is its Variable Area Inlet Duct, mounted in an unconventional position directly above and just behind the cockpit, which automatically controlled the amount of air fed to the jet engine. The air intake was moved from the chin position (an arrangement later adopted for the F-16) to the unusual dorsal location as the USAF had required the carriage of an underbelly semi-conformal nuclear weapon. The original chin intake caused a shockwave that interferred in launching this weapon. The implications this had for the survivability of the pilot during ejection were troubling. It also severely limited view to the rear, although this was not considered terribly important for a bomber aircraft, it is notable during an era when it was assumed air combat would be via guided missile exchanges outside visual range.
 
Extensive design changes resulted in its redesignation from F-100B to F-107A before the first prototype flew.
 
The F-107 was never given an official name, but was sometimes informally called the "Ultra Sabre," referring to North American's earlier fighter designs, the F-86 Sabre and the F-100 Super Sabre. The flight crews referred to it as the "Man Eater," in reference to the position of the air intake directly above the cockpit.
 
The designation "F-107A" was the only one assigned to the aircraft, though "YF-107A" is often used in publications.
 
 
Notes and Limitations:
 
Part of the SWOTUSAF series of aircraft.
 
Because the real aircraft never proceeded beyond the prototype stage, loadouts, mission capabilities and operational paint schemes are projections only.
 
3 skins are provided - The original prototype scheme, a natural metal scheme, and a Vietnam era scheme.
 
Because this aircraft was in competition with the F-105, we projected that it would have taken over the Thud's role in Vietnam, in addition to the air superiority/interceptor role the original F-100 was designed for. So loadouts reflect this.
 
The aircraft refers to some decals, visual effects, sounds, ejection seat and fuel tanks from the F-100D. The cockpit is based on a single engine fighter with a radar using the J75...either the F-104 or F-105 works fine...it defaults to the F-104 cockpit. You will have to install any other cockpit yourself.
 
The FM is mainly based on the F-100D, and so shares that FMs limitations. The real test article reached 2.35 Mach...this model has gone up to 2.2 Mach in level flight.

J-35 history (from internet)
 
J 35A
Fighter version, total production: 90. The J 35As were delivered between 1959-1961. The tail section was lengthened after the 66th aircraft to house a new afterburner for additional thrust. This forced the installation of a retractable tail-wheel. The two versions were nicknamed Adam kort (Adam short) and Adam lang (Adam long).
J 35B
Fighter version, built and delivered between 1962–1963, total production: 73. This variant had improved radar and gun sights, and was also fully integrated into the Swedish STRIL 60 system; a combat guidance and air surveillance system.
J 35D
Fighter version, delivered between 1963-1964, total production: 120. The aircraft had a new and more powerful Rolls-Royce Avon 300 (RM 6C), which could deliver 77.3 kN thrust when using its afterburner. This was also the fastest Draken version, and capable of accelerating until out of fuel. It was also the last Draken to carry two cannon.
J 35F
Fighter version, delivered between 1965 and 1972, total production: 230. This variant had improved electronics and avionics, e.g. integrated radar, aim and missile systems. The aircraft's main armament where IR and SARH versions of the Hughes Falcon missile originally intended for the J 35D , but one of the cannon was removed to give space for more avionics. The J 35F2 was a J 35F, produced with a Hughes Aircraft Company N71 infra red sensor, a so-called IR seeker. This was a change in the production line from the no 35501 airframe.
J 35J
In 1985 the Swedish government decided to modify 54 J 35F2's to J 35J standard. In 1987 12 more modifications where ordered. Between 1987 and 1991, the aircraft were given a longer lifespan, more modern electronics, a modernized cannon, an additional 2 sidewinder pylons under the air intakes and increased fuel capacity. The final operative J 35J flew for the last time in 1999.
Saab 35BS
Used J 35Bs sold to Finland.
Saab 35FS
Used J 35Fs sold to Finland.
Saab 35OE
In the mid 1980s, Saab purchased back 24 J 35D aircraft from the Swedish Air Force and converted them into the J 35O version (also called J 35OE in English literature). These were later exported to Austria.
