JGSDF Vehicle Pack 1

By WhiteBoySamurai

This is a package of 18 ground objects for the Japan Ground Self Defense Force, representing many of the significant combat vehicles from the 1970s to present. Four additional non-Japanese variants are included as a bonus, for a total of 22 distinct ground objects. All-new guns and missiles are included.

Note that these are all new models and not stand-ins or re-skins of existing ones. While they are relatively low-poly and low-res, if there is sufficient demand, I will update these models with more detail and improved textures at some point in the future.

Featured JGSDF vehicles include:
Type 74 MBT: Cold war era tank armed with a 105mm L7 gun
Type 90 MBT: Modern tank equipped with a 120mm gun, composite armor and advanced electronics
Type 87 Recon: Modern 6-wheeled armored recon vehicle with excellent sensors and a rapid-fire 25mm gun
Type 89 IFV: Modern armored infantry fighting vehicle with a 35mm autocannon and anti-tank missiles
Type 73 APC: Cold war era tracked APC
Type 96 APC A: Modern 8-wheeled APC (automatic grenade launcher)
Type 96 APC B: Modern 8-wheeled APC (heavy machine gun)
Type 87 AAA: Mobile anti-aircraft vehicle with twin 35mm guns
Type 93 SAM: Mobile short-range SAM
Type 75 MRL: Cold war era 130mm rocket launcher
Type 75 SPA: Cold war era 155mm mobile howitzer
Type 99 SPA: Modern 155mm mobile howitzer
Type 96 MPMS: Truck-mounted multi-purpose missile system designed to defeat tanks and landing craft
M110 SPA: License-built version of cold war era 203mm howitzer
M270J MLRS: License-built version of the US 227mm rocket launcher
L-90 AAA: License-built variant of the Swiss 35mm towed AAA system
Komatsu LAV: Modern light armored truck
Komatsu LAV-AT: LAV equipped with anti-tank missile launcher

International vehicles include:
GDF-001: Popular Swiss 35mm towed AAA system; used by many countries
GDF-002: Upgraded 35mm towed AAA system; used by many countries
M270 MLRS: US 227mm rocket launcher
M270A1 GMLRS: US 227mm GPS-guided rocket launcher

Two texture sets, default camo and green, are included for each vehicle. (US MLRS are Green and Tan instead.)

Additional vehicle packs for the JGSDF, ROK, and PLA may follow if this mod is well-received. (Don't worry, I'll still keep on making ships.)

These ground objects are recommended for use with Wrench's latest Korea terrain, as well as Kamchatka and other East-Asian theaters. Please see the readme for full details. If you have any questions, comments, concerns, or constructive criticisms regarding this package, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you!

SA-3 Goa / S-125 Neva SAM Pack

SF2 SA-3 Goa / S-125 Neva SAM Pack 1.0

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The S-125 Neva / SA-3 Goa Surface to Air Missile system was developed to supplement
the S-75 Dvina / SA-2 Guideline in Soviet and Warsaw Pact service. The SA-2 Guideline
was designed to provide medium to high altitude air defence coverage, primarily against
bomber aircraft. As such it was not well suited to the engagement of low flying targets,
especially fighter aircraft and cruise missiles. The SA-3 has shorter effective range and
lower engagement altitude than its predecessor and also flies slower but due to its two-stage
design it is more effective against more maneuverable targets. It is also able to engage
lower flying targets and being more modern it is much more resistant to ECM than the SA-2.

The system was widely exported and has been used in a number of conflicts, most notably:

War of Attrition
Yom Kippur War
South African Border War
Iran - Iraq War
Lebanon War
Gulf War
Kosovo War

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is the first version of the complete system pack. The following variants are featured:

S-125 Neva (SA-3A, 1961) - The first Neva variant. Limited export.

Volna (SA-N-1A, 1963) - The first naval variant. Available only for SF2NA.

Volna-M (SA-N-1B, 1967) - Improved naval variant. Available only for SF2NA.

S-125M Neva-M (SA-3B, 1970) - The standard Neva version with significant
improvements over the first variant. Widely exported.

Volna-P (SA-N-1B+, 1974) - Further modernization. Available only for SF2NA.

S-125M1 Neva-M1 (SA-3B+, 1978) - Upgrade for S-125M. Many S-125M operators
received this modernization in the '80s.

Volna-N (SA-N-1C, 1980) - Final modification. Available only for SF2NA.

S-125-2M Pechora-2M (2006) - Modern upgrade which included anti-stealth
capability, improved performance against heavy jamming and new missiles with
extended range.

* Since the early 2000s a number of manufacturers have built upgraded versions of the
system to make it more attractive to operators which used the cold war versions.
These upgraded versions have different characteristics in terms of mobility, jamming
resistance, missile range etc and thus for simplicity reasons only one "basic" upgraded
version (Pechora-2M) is included.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

New features:

- Fire control radars have been set to their instrumented ranges

- PRV-11 Side Net radar was added to offer early warning detection. Originally PRV-11
was a height finder radar but since we lack Low Blow, Flat Face is being used as the
fire control radar and Side Net as early warning radar

- Launchers can perform 360 degree rotation and now all battery launchers can point
at the target

- More realistic missile ballistics

- Fuze distances were increased and thus a hit is not a guaranteed kill

- New launch effect and sound

- Guidance was changed from Beam Rider to Semi Active Radar Homing. The basic
type of guidance for SA-3 requires target tracking in azimuth, elevation and range and
when launched, the missile flies to a pre-calculated impact point, receiving signals from
the fire control radar. This type is similar to Semi Active Radar Homing

- Dramatically improved performance especially in low altitude

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Things that need to be done:

- High resolution missile skins

- Low Blow model so that we can use the original SA-3 radar instead of Flatface

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Known issues:

- Fire control radar can guide only one missile against a single target. Real SA-3 system
could guide two missiles against a single target.

- Fire control radar of Pechora-2M can track only one target during each engagement.
Real Pechora-2M fire control radar could track and engage two targets at the same time.

- Due to game engine limitations concerning the structure of enemy SAM sites,
each SA-3 site will appear with 6 launchers. Real system had 4 launchers.

- Missiles can fly longer at low altitudes as they tend to reach the missile duration time.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

REQUIREMENTS:

You must have installed SF2 North Atlantic to use the stock missile model otherwise
you need to use the 3rd party models (included here).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As always open readme.txt first to see installation instructions and credits.

Lot of research and hard work was made to make this SAM as realistic as possible.

Enjoy as much as you can this SAM and leave comments with your in-game experience
in the support topic!

RSS SA-2 Guideline Pack Beta 0.41

By Snailman

RED SIDE STANDARD SA-2 Guideline Pack 0.41 Beta
============================================

This is a public test version. Please try out equipment playing from both sides. This pack has been tested against stock planes on stock terrain. Mostly on VietnamSE due SAM site density and fast loading time :)
About 1000+ launch tests have been done on planes with various types with or without jamming equipment at low and high altitude. Ballistics have been also checked with HoneyFox's Missile Range Simulator.

Introduction:
-------------
To follow the philosophy behind Red Side Standard Weapons Pack (RSSW) I made an attempt to standardize the SAM systems as well. The first of such, the SA-2 Guideline or System-75 family. Using multiple reference materials (both english an russian) we tried to fine tune the effectiveness of all the weaponry for satisfactory player game experience while keeping as much realism as possible. This provides more challenge playing on the blue side.
Effectiveness for guided missiles and radars have been tuned to provide realistic hit rate within the proper launch requirements. Because of game limitations, this means some technical parameters and values may be different from real world data.
We kept as much stock reference as we could to provide compatibility with original game standard (Naming, Types, etc).
Yet, there are no new ground objects included, but many new equipment is WIP for the final version.

Contents:
---------
- The latest 3D models of the SA-2 family missiles from Spillone104 with thoroughly revised characteristics (FM, Guidance, Ballistics etc)
- Weapon (and folder) names use common standard for convenience, clarity and simplified looks
- Most objects use the stock TW 3D models

Important changes:
------------------
- All missiles have been changed from Beam Rider to SAHM guidance, as a work around the faulty "tail chasing" game logic also present with Rear60 IR seeking missiles. Also, "Beam Rider" guidance does not allow lead targeting of the missile.
- All Fan Song radars have been set to their instrumented range, now it is fully up to the RCS, altitude and noise jamming values to determine the range of detection.
- Target tracking range has been made equal to the search range - what the Fan Song can see can track immediately - launch is still limited by the missile parameters.
- Missile Turn G and Seeker FOV has been toned down to (almost) real life data. It gives a chance to "Dance of Death" - outmaneuvering the missile in early planes. AI however will be still toast, though.
- Now all missiles have new 3D models and new skins, thanks to Spillone104
Credits:
--------
Ground objects: TW
SA-2 missile family: Spillone104
In-game testing: Everyone who gave us feedback and shared game experience! Thank you very much! I do count on more testing with the SA-2 and upcoming systems as well.

Work in progress:
--------
New Fan Song 3D models (with correct size and antenna types)
Various auxiliary vans or SAM site contruction
New Search/Height inding radar 3D models associated with the sites on regimental level
Experimental complete SAM site objects for terrains

USN SAM pack

By WhiteBoySamurai

This is a complete package of SAMs used by the United States Navy from the early cold war era to present. Currently 33 different missiles are included.
I have meticulously researched, modified, tested and compiled these weapons so that I and other ship modders have a selection of realistic standardized missiles (one might say "Standard Missiles":D) to work with.

The medium and long range missiles have been assigned updated efects from SF2NA, as well as new sound effects (included in the package), which sound much more appropriate than the default sound. I'm particularly proud of the VLS launch effect, which I made by ripping and editing official footage; I think it adds to the immersion tremendously.

Note that two stock weapons, the RIM-2F and RIM-66B, are replaced by this package. I usually try to avoid this, but the RIM-2F model did not sit on launchers correctly, and both weapons had some wildly incorrect data.

Optional data files for a few stock and third-party USN ships are included which adds new weapons as appropriate and adjusts radar strength to more realistic levels.

Please see the readme for instructions, credits, and other details. If you have any questions, comments, concerns, or constructive criticisms regarding this model, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you!

3 More Airbase "Equipments"

By Wrench

More Airbase Goodies
= SF/Wo* & SF2 series Games (Any and All -hopefully*!) =

A few more pieces of equipment, to place around airfields or bases, or other 'locations of interest'. The items are:

Bulldozer (-original creator unknown, as it comes from waay back on the WW2 terrains)
Road Grader
Steamroller (these 2 by Sundowner)

It should be noted at this time, these are NOT GroundObjects, like the yellow fuel truck recently released, but TERRAIN objects, that will need hand placement on your terrain of choice. Instructions are below in the "To Add To A Terrain" section.

As always, fairly easy to follow (for Terraformers/Targeteers), yet detailed install instructions are included. Please read them!

*note: as the grader and roller have been built in late model MAX, they may not work in SF/Wo* games. This has NOT been tested*

With special thanks to Sundowner!!

Enjoy!

Realistic SA-6 Gainful / 2K12 Kub SAM Pack

SF2 Realistic SA-6 Gainful / 2K12 Kub SAM Pack 1.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This pack features the SA-6 SAM system. It is a mobile low to medium-level air defense
system, designed to protect ground forces from air attacks. Following variants are included:

2K12 Kub (SA-6, 1967) - The first Kub version exported to Middle East and other
Third World countries.

2K12M1 Kub-M1 (SA-6, 1973) - Upgraded version exported to Warsaw Pact countries.

2K12M3 Kub-M3 (SA-6, 1976) - Final modification exported to Warsaw Pact and some
other countries.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

New features:

- More realistic search/track ranges along with search/track times for StraightFlush radar

- Launchers can perform 360 degree rotation and now all battery launchers can point at the
target

- Corrected missile parameters

- Fuze distances were increased and thus a hit is not a guaranteed kill. Also it has impact on
the near pass with no detonation situation. With longer fuze distances, missiles will detonate
sooner and there will be at least some damage if not a kill

- Repainted missile skins

- New launch effect and sound

- Dramatically improved performance

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Known issues:

- Due to game engine limitations mobile SAM batteries can not move with other ground units
and thus offensive ground forces will be exposed to enemy air attacks.

- Fire control radar can guide only one missile against a single target. Real SA-6 system
could guide two missiles against a single target.

- Missiles can fly longer at low altitudes as they tend to reach the Missile Duration time.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

REQUIREMENTS:

You must have installed any SF2 title which will feature the stock SA-6 system.
I think that SF2, SF2E and SF2I have it.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As always open readme.txt first to see installation instructions and credits.

Lot of research and hard work was made to make this SAM as realistic as possible.

Enjoy as much as you can this SAM and leave comments with your in-game experience
in the support topic!

Realistic SA-3 / SA-N-1 Goa Pack Beta

SF2 Realistic SA-3 / SA-N-1 Goa Pack Beta

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

This pack features the famous S-125 Neva (SA-3 Goa) and its naval version Volna-M (SA-N-1B). The following SAM systems are included:

S-125 Neva (SA-3A, 1961) - The first Neva variant. Limited export.

Volna-M (SA-N-1B, 1967) - First improved naval variant. Only missile included since Kashin ship is a stock stuff. You can use this missile only if you have installed SF2 North Atlantic!

S-125M Neva-M (SA-3B, 1970) - The standard Neva version with significant improvements over the first variant. Widely exported.

S-125M1 Neva-M1 (SA-3B+, 1978) - Upgrade for S-125M. Many S-125M operators received this modernization in the '80s.

S-125 Pechora-2M (2002) - Modern upgrade which included anti-stealth capability, improved performance against heavy jamming and new missiles with extended range.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

New features:

- New search and track ranges for fire control radars

- Launchers can perform 360 degree rotation and now all battery launchers can point at the target

- More realistic missile parameters. Some values may be higher due to game engine limitations mainly concerning guidance

- Fuze distances were increased and thus a hit is not a guaranteed kill

- New launch effect and sound

- Guidance was changed from Beam Rider to Semi Active Radar Homing. The basic type of guidance for SA-3 requires target tracking in azimuth, elevation and range
and when launched, the missile flies to a pre-calculated impact point, receiving signals from the fire control radar. This type is very similar to Semi Active Radar Homing.

- Dramatically improved performance especially in low altitude

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Things that need to be done:

- 1024x1024 missile skins

- Low Blow model so that we can use the original SA-3 radar instead of Flatface

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Known issues:

- Fire control radar can guide only one missile against a single target. Real SA-3 system could guide two missiles against a single target

- Low altitude performance is good enough but not at the desired level. Tests are still going on

- Missiles can fly longer at low altitudes as they tend to reach the Missile Duration time

- Userlist.ini has only Soviet as the only operator but temporarily this is not a problem since they appear as the red side in many terrains. The complete operators list
will be on the final version.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

REQUIREMENTS:

You must have installed SF2 North Atlantic to use the stock missile model otherwise you need to use the 3rd party models (included here).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Check read me file for installation instructions.

Lot of research and hard work was made to make this SAM as realistic as possible.

Keep in mind that is a beta version. When all the issues will be fixed in the desired level, we will have our final version! Stay tuned and enjoy as much as you can this SAM

Alternative Armour Pack

By SFP1Ace

Alternative Armour Pack

This armour pack is my humble attempt to make ground war somewhat more "accurate". It's been created with SF2:E/NF4+ in mind, but it should be easy to adapt it to other mods/installs. Several "new" tanks have been created, but due to my lack of modelling skills they're only ini edits. Other tanks (both TW and community ones) have been tweaked.

"New" stuff:

- Chieftain mk2, mk5 & mk11 (edited stock Centurions);
- 120MM L11 gun for Chieftain, parameters optimized for the L15 APDS round;
- Leopard 1 (edited stock Leopard 1A1);
- M1 IP (edited M1 Abrams from NF4+);
- M60A1 AOS (edited stock M60A1);
- M60A3 (edited Pasko's & Kesselbrut's M60A3)
- T-80B (edited T-80BV by SWS, BPAo, Fubar512 & 331Killerbee)

Modified stuff:

- 120MM L44 customized for '80s M829 APFSDS round);
- Centurions (mk5,6,8,10,13), Leopard (1A1-1A5), Leopard 2A4, M1, M1A1, M48 (A2 & A3), M60A1, T-54, T-55, T-62A, T-72A, T-80BV;

Modifications inlclude following changes/corrections:

- tank's weight;
- armor values have been changed to RHA equivalents against Kinetic Energy rounds. Angled plates have been taken into account whenever possible. Late tanks (T-72, T-80, Abrams, Leo 2) armor RHA values have been greatly influenced by data presented in "Armor Basics" created by Paul Lasowski & included in Steel Beasts;
- number of gun rounds carried;
- presence (or lack thereof) of nightsight, gun stabilization;
- rangefinder & ballistic computer values;
- service entry dates.

I "hope" all this changes enhance accuracy but please bear in mind that:

- SF series is about flying and the ground war aspect is kind off limited;
- I'm no guru, I pulled the data from the Internet, therefore it might not be actually accurate, lol;
- there's no easy way to calculate RHA values, info on the net can vary significantly from source to source; if you have some good/reliable literature where these are well/reliably documented for many cold war tanks and their variants/sub-types you're welcome to share ;)

If you find any bugs/errors, please let me know so I can correct it.

INSTALLATION:

Back up your stuff first, so you can revert changes if you don't like them! Unzip archive and copy Objects folder to your mod directory (usually "C:\Users\Username\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 Europe\" when using Vista/7). If you want M60A3 & T-80B\BV to show up you'll need to download them from CA (I didn't include lod files or textures). M60A3 is included in US Armour Pack, T-80BV is, well T-80BV. For T-80B copy T-80BV lod files into it's directory. If you don't have NF4+ installed you'll have to get the M1 Abrams from the US Armour Pack as well. And obviously if you want all the "new" stuff to show up in a campaign, you'll have to modify campaign data file. For starters I suggest replacing British Division's Leos with Chieftains in 1979 & 1986 campaigns.
If you're still lost PM me :).

Enjoy!

RSS SA-2 Guideline Pack Public Test Beta

By Snailman

RED SIDE STANDARD SA-2 Guideline Pack 0.30 Beta
============================================

This is a public test version. Please try out equipment playing from both sides. This pack has been tested against stock planes on stock terrain. Mostly on VietnamSE due SAM site density and fast loading time :)
About 1000+ launch tests have been done on planes with various types with or without jamming equipment at low and high altitude. Ballistics have been also checked with HoneyFox's Missile Range Simulator.

Introduction:
-------------
To follow the philosophy behind Red Side Standard Weapons Pack (RSSW) I made an attempt to standardize the SAM systems as well. The first of such, the SA-2 Guideline or System-75 family.
Using multiple reference materials (both english an russian) we tried to fine tune the effectiveness of all the weaponry for satisfactory player game experience while keeping as much realism as possible. This provides more challenge playing on the blue side.
Effectiveness for guided missiles and radars have been tuned to provide realistic hit rate within the proper launch requirements. Because of game limitations, this means some technical parameters and values may be different from real world data.
We kept as much stock reference as we could to provide compatibility with original game standard (Naming, Types, etc).
Yet, there are no new ground objects included, but many new equipment is WIP for the final version.

Contents:
---------
- The latest 3D models of the SA-2 family missiles from Spillone104 with thoroughly revised characteristics (FM, Guidance, Ballistics etc)
- Weapon (and folder) names use common standard for convenience, clarity and simplified looks
- Most objects use the stock TW 3D models

Important changes:
------------------
- All missiles have been changed from Beam Rider to SAHM guidance, as a work around the faulty "tail chasing" game logic also present with Rear60 IR seeking missiles. Also, "Beam Rider" guidance does not allow lead targeting of the missile.
- All Fan Song radars have been set to their instrumented range, now it is fully up to the RCS, altitude and noise jamming values to determine the range of detection.
- Target tracking range has been made equal to the search range - what the Fan Song can see can track immediately - launch is still limited by the missile parameters.
Credits:
--------
Ground objects: TW
SA-2 missile family: Spillone104

Work in progress:
--------
More new 3D missile objects for all variants.
New Fan Song 3D models (with correct size and antenna types)
Various auxiliary vans or SAM site contruction
New Search/Height inding radar 3D models associated with the sites on regimental level
Experimental complete SAM site objects for terrains

T-80BV MBT

By Fubar512

T-80BV Main Battle Tank:

Original Google Sketchup Model by SWS
Ported to SF2 format by BPAo and Fubar512
INI files by Fubar512
Textures by 331Killerbee

Beta testers: USAFMTL, Crusader, Private (please don't feel left out if I've forgotten you).

to quote from SWS's write up:

"The T-80 is a main battle tank (MBT) designed and manufactured in the former Soviet Union. A development of the T-64, it entered service in 1976 and was the first production tank to be equipped with a gas turbine engine for main propulsion (the Stridsvagn 103 only used a supplementary gas turbine by 1971). The T-80U was last produced in a factory in Omsk, Russia, while the T-80UD and further-developed T-84 continue to be produced in Ukraine. The T-80 and its variants are in service in Belarus, Cyprus, Kazakhstan,Pakistan, Russia, South Korea, and Ukraine. The chief designer of the T-80 was the Russian engineer Nikolay Popov"

Installation:

Simply extract the contents of the zip archive into your SF2 Mod folder. Please back up your default TankGun.wav and TankTrack.wav, as they will otherwise be overwritten.

If you wish to use the TankTurbine.wav, you will need to create an entry for it in your soundlist.ini

RSS SA-8/SA-N-4 Gecko Pack Beta

By Snailman

RED SIDE STANDARD SA-8/SA-N-4 Gecko Pack 0.3 Beta
============================================

This is a public test version. Please try out equipment playing from both sides. This pack has been tested against stock planes on stock terrain. Mostly on IsraelME, a more advanced map and for fast loading time :)
About 1000+ launch tests have been done on planes with various types with or without jamming equipment at low and high altitude. Ballistics have been also checked with HoneyFox's Missile Range Simulator.

Introduction:
-------------
To follow the philosophy behind Red Side Standard Weapons Pack (RSSW) I made an attempt to standardize the SAM systems as well. The SA-8 Gecko or Osa family is next in the row. It is a late addition into the game, appears in modern eras. It is the most sophisticated SAM system developed during the soviet era and it is still in service. The SA-8 is a low altitude system for short ranges - considered mobile by the game. In theory it would defend armored units, it can move and stops to shoot. Had the placement routine finished by TW... therefore the SA-8 needs user placement. Usage as Mobile AAA is NOT RECOMMENDED, since this system in large numbers can be more than lethal. Also keep availability dates in mind. A plane with no jammer or chaff is helpless against this system in the early 70's - and I did not modify Noise and CM resistance values.

Using multiple reference materials (both english an russian) we tried to fine tune the effectiveness of all the weaponry for satisfactory player game experience while keeping as much realism as possible. This provides more challenge playing on the blue side.
Effectiveness for guided missiles and radars have been tuned to provide realistic hit rate within the proper launch requirements. Because of game limitations, this means some technical parameters and values may be different from real world data.
We kept as much stock reference as we could to provide compatibility with original game standard (Naming, Types, etc).
Yet, there are no new ground objects included, but many new equipment is WIP for the final version.

Contents:
---------
- The SA-8 and SA-8B systems, with thoroughly revised characteristics (FM, Guidance, Ballistics etc)
- The SA-N-4 systems, with thoroughly revised characteristics (FM, Guidance, Ballistics etc)
- Kiev and Krivak ship classes equipped with modded SA-N-4 missiles (both early and late models)
- Weapon (and folder) names use common standard for convenience, clarity and simplified looks
- Ground objects use the stock TW 3D models
- Osa Launch sound. Modify soundlist.ini to use this wav file

Important changes:
------------------
- Missile ballistic data
- Radar search and track ranges and altitudes
- Early SA-8 (Osa) launcher with 4 missiles (No new 3D yet)
- Corrected SA-N-4 reload times.
Credits:
--------
Ground objects: TW
In-game testing: Everyone who gave us feedback and shared game experience! Thank you very much! I do count on more testing with the SA-2 and upcoming systems as well.

Work in progress:
--------
New launcher vehicle corrected 3D models (Early Osa)
