SF2 DAT Mods

Updated March 12

Notes:

This is not actually a MH-47G SOA Chinook, but a standard base model Chinook. It's the only one we have in SF2 so it will have to do.

The MH-47G Special Operations Aviation (SOA) version is currently being delivered to the US Army. It is similar to the MH-47E, but features a more sophisticated avionics including a digital Common Avionics Architecture System (CAAS). The CAAS is common glass cockpit used by different helicopters such as MH-60K/Ls, CH-53E/Ks, and ARH-70As.

Like the Hawks, she is relatively easy to fly on "normal" mode, which SF helicopters are tuned for. You can hover, fly backwards and sideways, ascend verticaly etc. It takes some practice and skill but is definately doable. Pinnacle landings are hard but can be done. You get what you put in, so if you practice you will be rewarded.

She is armed with a pair of player operated 7.62mm miniguns.

US Army Rangers can be deployed from the rear of the bird. A nice feature is that they will "run" down the ramp and deploy onto the ground (using a "crater" effect). Be careful when selecting the Rangers to deploy as many of the MH-47's parts are "fake" weapons and therefore can be "fired".

The bird has a full set of lights, including landing lights and a searchlight which are activated/deactivated by the "L" landing key.

Included are two real Chinook wav files, you can pick which one you like. Listen to them IN GAME, as the game plays them correctly whereas the likes of Windows Media Player does not.

Another nice effect is that if your bird is destroyed a nice Chinook wreck will be your funeral pyre!

INSTALLATION:

Place the MH-47G folder into your Aircraft folder.
Place the CH-47EA-Dam.bmp and MH-47G-Destroyed.LOD into your Aircraft folder.

Place the 160MiniGun, 47R, 47Tank2, 47Winch, 160HeloGunnerR and US Ranger folders into your Weapons folder.

Place the 160HeloPilot1 & 2, 47A, 47Boom, 47Cargo, 47CM, 47FLIR, 47J, 47M, 47M2, 47RN, 47S, and 47W2 folders into your Pilots folder.

Place the Chinook and Chinook4 wav files into your Sounds folder.

Place the two TADS files and the Loading wav file in your Flight folder.

And finally, place the contents of the Object folder (RangerCrater001, USForces and Wreckobject.ini) into your main Objects folder. These are the "craters" that will show the Rangers on the ground once deployed. NOTE: The new "crater" is WreckType008, if you already have a WreckType with this number, just paste mine in and rename them as required.

You will need to copy over the CH-147-R0g.LOD from the A-Team Chinook mod. If you do not already have it, get it from the A-Team Skunkworks site.

Sikorsky MH-60T Jayhawk

Notes:

This is the final version of the Jayhawk, the definitive MH-60T. My previous versions of the HH-60T (note different name) can be re-named HH-60J if you wish to simulate earlier versions.

Not really an MH-60T Jayhawk, but of course a SH-60B Seahawk. It's the closest we have in SF so it will have to do.

MH-60T is the upgrade armed model of the HH-60J, it has a CAAS glass cockpit (the CAAS also used by various Navy and Army helicopters). With Zur's permission I have used a modded Osprey cockpit to simulate the CAAS (it's a close match).

The MH-60T is armed with the "Airborne Use of Force" pack. This consists of a M-240D MMG, and a semiauto .50CAL rifle - for fun I've made that into a .50CAL HMG so you can blow things up. SF is a combat sim after all.

New with this model is a proper winch of the type used by the Coast Guard, much thanks to Florian "AmokFloo" Schneider for the winch. Unfortunately as a "fake" pilot the winch is only for looks.

She is relatively easy to fly on "normal" mode, which SF helicopters are tuned for. You can hover, fly backwards and sideways, ascend verticaly etc. It takes some practice and skill but is definately doable.

Landing on Cutters should present no problems.

Installation:

Place the MH-60T folder into your Aircraft folder.

Place the Tank_Jayhawk & CGHeloGunnerR folders into your Weapons folder.

Place the CGHeloPilot1 & 2, CoastGuardWinch, JayA, JayA2, JayR, JayR2, JayS, JaySeat and JayW folders into your Pilots folder.

Place the Jayhawk wav file in your Sounds folder.

Place the two TADS files and the Loading wav file in your Flight folder.

Place the contents of the Decal folder into your Decal folder.

You will need to copy over the SH-60B LOD's from the SH-60B Seahawk mod. If you do not already have it, get it from the A-Team Skunkworks site.

Changelog for Version 3:

New Common Avionics Architecture System (CAAS) cockpit by David "Zur" Zurawski.
New Coast Guard Winch 3D model by Florian "Amokfloo" Schneider.
New, larger, Jayhawk Drop Tanks. Not exact but better.
More lights including MFD's for the external model.
FM uprated for the more powerful engines.
Set of decals for 20 birds from 5 different CGAS's.
.50CAL HMG added for fun.
New nose radar.
Various new antenna's.
Rear cabin seats added.

Credits:

David "Zur" Zurawski for the CAAS cockpit.

Boeing Chinook RAF HC.5

Notes:

This is not actually a HC.5 Chinook, but a standard base model Chinook. It's the only one we have in SF2 so it will have to do.

A programme to upgrade 46 Chinook HC2, HC2A and HC3 helicopters was initiated in December 2008. Called Project Julius, it includes new digital flight deck avionics based on the Thales TopDeck avionics suite, comprising new multifunction displays, a digital moving map display and an electronic flight bag, installation of a nose-mounted FLIR detector, and upgrading the engines to the more powerful T55-714 standard. Upgraded HC2, HC2A and HC3 aircraft will be redesignated HC4, HC4A and HC5 respectively, and deliveries are expected to commence in 2011. The first conversion, a Chinook HC4, first flew on 9 December 2010.

Like the Hawks, she is relatively easy to fly on "normal" mode, which SF helicopters are tuned for. You can hover, fly backwards and sideways, ascend verticaly etc. It takes some practice and skill but is definately doable. Pinnacle landings are hard but can be done. You get what you put in, so if you practice you will be rewarded.

She is armed with a pair of player operated 7.62mm L7A2 MMG's.

SAS Troopers can be deployed from the rear of the bird. A nice feature is that they will "run" down the ramp and deploy onto the ground (using a "crater" effect). Be careful when selecting the SAS to deploy as many of the HC.5's parts are "fake" weapons and therefore can be "fired". SAS Troopers are used as IIRC they are the only British Forces that use the M4 Carbine.

The bird has a full set of lights, including landing lights and a searchlight which are activated/deactivated by the "G" landing gear key.

Included are two real Chinook wav files, you can pick which one you like. Listen to them IN GAME, as the game plays them correctly whereas the likes of Windows Media Player does not.

Another nice effect is that if your bird is destroyed a nice Chinook wreck will be your funeral pyre!

INSTALLATION:

Place the ChinookHC5 folder into your Aircraft folder.
Place the CH-47EA-Dam.bmp and MH-47G-Destroyed.LOD into your Aircraft folder.

Place the HC5Tank, HC5Winch, L7A2, RAFHeloGunner and SAS folders into your Weapons folder.

Place the 47Cargo, 47S, 47W2, HC5A, HC5A2, HC5CM, HC5F, HC5FLIR, HC5J, HC5M, HC5M2, HC5P, HC5RN, RAFHelopilot1 and RAFHelopilot2 folders into your Pilots folder.

Place the Chinook and Chinook4 wav files into your Sounds folder.

Place the two TADS files and the Loading wav file in your Flight folder.

And finally, place the contents of the Object folder (SASCrater001, UKForces and Wreckobject.ini) into your main Objects folder. These are the "craters" that will show the Troopers on the ground once deployed. NOTE: The new "crater" is WreckType009, if you already have a WreckType with this number, just paste mine in and rename them as required.

You will need to copy over the CH-147-R0g.LOD from the A-Team Chinook mod. If you do not already have it, get it from the A-Team Skunkworks site.

Sikorsky MH-60L Direct Action Penetrator

Notes:

There are two helo's in this package. One is the DAP, and the other, well you'll just have to see.

Not really a MH-60L Direct Action Penetrator, but of course a MH-60G Pave Hawk. It's the closest we have in SF so it will have to do.

This bird packs an awesome punch: eight Hellfire's, four Stingers, a rocket pod and two 7.62mm Miniguns. Something for everyone!

As with all the Hawks, she is relatively easy to fly on "normal" mode, which SF helicopters are tuned for. You can hover, fly backwards and sideways, ascend verticaly etc. It takes some practice and skill but is definately doable. This bird is a bit heavier than the other Hawks so takes more skill to hover.

Installation:

Place the MH-60LDAP folder into your Aircraft folder.

Place the 160HeloGunnerR, 160MiniGun and Hellfire_PodN into your Weapons folder.

Place the 160HeloPilot1 & 2, and DAPR folders into your Pilots folder.

Place the MH60LDAP wav file into your Sounds folder.

Place the two TADS files and the Loading wav file in your Flight folder.

You will need to copy over the MH-60G LOD's from the MH-60G Pave Hawk mod. If you do not already have it, get it from the A-Team Skunkworks site.

Sikorsky HH-60H Rescue Hawk

Not really a HH-60H Rescue Hawk, but of course a SH-60F Seahawk. It's the closest we have in SF so it will have to do.

She is relatively easy to fly on "normal" mode, which SF helicopters are tuned for. You can hover, fly backwards and sideways, ascend verticaly etc. It takes some practice and skill but is definately doable.

Installation:

Place the HH-60H folder into your Aircraft folder.

Place the AAQ16, RescueHawkMiniGun, RescueHawkTank and USNHeloGunnerR into your Weapons folder.

Place the USNHeloPilot1 & 2 folders into your Pilots folder. NOTE: For those with SF1 I have included the AAQ16 and USNHeloGunnerR as fake pilot objects. You will have to remove the ; from the data.ini file for them to work. They will look different from the SF2 version, but better than nothing.

You will not get the RescueHawkMiniGun to work in SF1 unless you edit the weaponsdata.ini file.

Place the RescueHawk wav file into your Sounds folder.

Place the two TADS files and the Loading wav file in your Flight folder.

Place the contents of the Decal folder into your Decal folder.

Sikorsky HH-60T Jayhawk 2.0

Note: Version 2 is just the Jayhawk. The other "easter egg" helos are in the 1.0 file only.

Not really a HH-60T Jayhawk, but of course a SH-60B Seahawk. It's the closest we have in SF so it will have to do.

HH-60T is the upgrade model of the HH-60J, it has a glass cockpit and weapons capability. I have used the MH-60 cockpit to simulate this.

She is relatively easy to fly on "normal" mode, which SF helicopters are tuned for. You can hover, fly backwards and sideways, ascend verticaly etc. It takes some practice and skill but is definately doable.

Sikorsky MH-60S KnightHawk

This is not actually a MH-60S KnightHawk, but a HH-60G Pave Hawk. It's the closest we have in SF2 so it will have to do. The MH-60S is based on the UH-60L Blackhawk, unlike the other USN helo's which are Seahawk based.

The KnightHawk peforms vertical replenishment, troop transport, and search and rescue, amongst other things. Although the KnightHawk has the usual minigun for your destructive pleasure, it is basically set up for vertrep. Non combat but very challenging.

Vertrep only works via the intricacies of sorcery. Actually, vertrep only works on land, as although the cargo palettes are "weapons" and can be "fired" anywhere, the will only show up on land as they become a "crater" when the hit the dirt. Craters, of course, do not show up on ships or the ocean.

You can still have lots of fun flying missions from ship to shore, and if you do not wish to have the cargo sling, for example, just de-select it in the Loadout screen.

As with all the Hawks, she is relatively easy to fly on "normal" mode, which SF helicopters are tuned for. You can hover, fly backwards and sideways, ascend verticaly etc. It takes some practice and skill but is definately doable.

She has the more powerful engines from the UH-60L so can hover with a full cargo load aboard.

INSTALLATION:

Place the MH-60S folder into your Aircraft folder. NOTE: You may have my fictional MH-60S "StealthHawk" in your Aircraft folder, rename or move it as this is the "real" MH-60S.

Place the 160MiniGun, Cargo, KHF, Sling1, Sling2 and USNHeloGunnerR folders into your Weapons folder.

Place the USNHeloPilot1 & 2 folders into your Pilots folder.

Place the MH60LDAP wav file into your Sounds folder.

Place the two TADS files and the Loading wav file in your Flight folder.

And finally, place the contents of the Object folder (cargo_03d, Dragchute, Frachtnetz, Frachtpalette, SlingLoad_03d, Storage and Wreckobject.ini) into your main Objects folder. These are the "craters" that will show the cargo palettes on the ground once released. NOTE: The new "craters" are WreckType006 and 007, if you already have WreckTypes with these numbers, just paste mine in and rename them as required.

You will need to copy over the MH-60G LOD's from the MH-60G Pave Hawk mod. If you do not already have it, get it from the A-Team Skunkworks site.

Boeing ACH-47A "Guns A Go-Go"

Notes:

Here is the Boeing Armed Cargo Helicopter 47-A, or more commonly "Guns A Go-Go".

The ACH-47A was originally known as the Armed/Armored CH-47A (or A/ACH-47A). It was officially designated ACH-47A by US Army Attack Cargo Helicopter and unofficially Guns A Go-Go. Four CH-47A helicopters were converted to gunships by Boeing Vertol in late 1965. Three were assigned to the 53rd Aviation Detachment in South Vietnam for testing, with the remaining one retained in the US for weapons testing. By 1966, the 53rd was redesignated the 1st Aviation Detachment (Provisional) and attached to the 228th Assault Support Helicopter Battalion of the 1st Cavalry Division (Airmobile). By 1968, only one gunship remained, and logistical concerns prevented more conversions. It was returned to the United States, and the program stopped.

The ACH-47A carried five M60D 7.62x51 mm machine guns or M2HB .50 caliber machine guns, provided by the XM32 and XM33 armament subsystems, two M24A1 20 mm cannons, two XM159B/XM159C 19-Tube 2.75 in rocket launchers or sometimes two M18/M18A1 7.62×51 mm gun pods, and a single M75 40 mm grenade launcher in the XM5/M5 armament subsystem (more commonly seen on the UH-1 series of helicopters). The surviving aircraft, Easy Money, has been restored and is on display at Redstone Arsenal, Alabama

The player has at his command the two 20mm cannon, two 19-tube rocket pods, and a 40mm grenade launcher. There's lots of ammo for the cannon and grenade launcher. She packs a serious punch for 1966!

Like the Hawks, she is relatively easy to fly on "normal" mode, which SF helicopters are tuned for. You can hover, fly backwards and sideways, ascend verticaly etc. It takes some practice and skill but is definately doable. Pinnacle landings are hard but can be done. You get what you put in, so if you practice you will be rewarded.

The bird has a full set of lights, including landing lights and a searchlight which are activated/deactivated by the "G" landing gear key.

Included are two real Chinook wav files, you can pick which one you like. Listen to them IN GAME, as the game plays them correctly whereas the likes of Windows Media Player does not.

Another nice effect is that if your bird is destroyed a nice Chinook wreck will be your funeral pyre!

INSTALLATION:

Place the ACH-47A folder into your Aircraft folder.
Place the CH-47EA-Dam.bmp and ACH-47A-Destroyed.LOD into your Aircraft folder.

Place the 20mmGo, HeloGunnerL, HeloGunnerR, LAU-3A_Mk40_M151 and XM-8 folders into your Weapons folder.

Place the FakePilot, GoAmmoCrate, GoBench, GoGrenade, GoP, GoPylon, Helopilot 1 and Helopilot2 folders into your Pilots folder.

Place the Chinook and Chinook4 wav files into your Sounds folder.

Place the Loading wav file in your Flight folder.

You will need to copy over the CH-147-R0g.LOD from the A-Team Chinook mod. If you do not already have it, get it from the A-Team Skunkworks site.

Vickers Valiant B.1 (*)

The Vickers Valiant was a British high-altitude jet bomber designed to carry nuclear weapons, and in the 1950s and 1960s was part of the Royal Air Force's "V bomber" strategic deterrent force. It was developed by Vickers-Armstrongs in response to Specification B.35/46 issued by the Air Ministry for a nuclear-armed jet-powered bomber. The Valiant was the first of the V bombers to become operational, and was followed by the Handley Page Victor and the Avro Vulcan. The Valiant was the only V bomber to have dropped live nuclear weapons (for test purposes)
All the 11 Squadrons that used the Valiant
(included the 4 Suez ones) with historical
numbers (Those from suez with note
for campaign numbers to choose).
What's new:
- SF-2 porting
- 24 Skins edited and resized
- New decals
- New historical decal numbers by squadron
- Decals positions fixed
- New loadout image
References:
- Warpaint n. 63
- Scale Aircraft Modelling - vol.25 n. 5
- Vickers Valiant - Aerofax
- Osprey Combat Aircraft n. 95

All credits to A-TEAM for model and base skins I edited & upgraded.

(*) You need Valiant-B1-R3d (new) lod from A-TEAM site.

One community, more planes, so much fun.

SF2 Westland Wessex HU 5 (DAT)

By trotski00

Westland Wessex Hu 5
Royal Navy skin

A re work of the skin for the Wessex HU5 , the aircraft is originally from the A-Team site, so you will ( if you want to fly this aircraft ) have to obtain the files and lods from there,
This is a complete re do of the whole thing, as I was never happy with the colour, so I have corrected that, I have re drawn all the panels relatively accurately, I haven't bothered with rivet detail as to be honest it doesn't actually show up too well, I have corrected and updated ALL the stencilling, as the original effort was a dogs breakfast to be honest. I have also re done the decals and markings.
So what is included.........2 skins, one for aircraft from 848 NAS who were the squadron in action during the Falklands operation, and one skin for 845 NAS flying off HMS Bulwark in 1966 during the Brunei and Indonesia debacle. I have included the decals for both Squadrons, and also the pilots that I personally use, although green helmets were more the flavour of the day during the Falklands, so feel free to swap out the pilots if that is your taste.
A quick note about the shortfalls of these skins, the aircraft I believe was originally done for SF 1 so it is a little aged, therefore there are some clipping issues you may encounter, I am unable to do anything about this, in reality, we could do with a completely new model of this important aircraft, and hopefully one day it will happen !! So pretty much I have made a silk purse from a sows ear here, the aircraft itself. looks a little "off" I am sure there are some dimension errors, it doesn#'t seem tall enough, and it looks a little bit odd from the front view.....but I could of course be wrong, and the thing is perfect, but I doubt it. The stuff we all are getting used to like working lights and hatches......yeah ok.......not happening on this model, and I forgot to make lights work at least....oh well, such is life !!
Hopefully I shall do some skins for RAF HC3's next so watch this space for those.

As always, ENJOY !!

SF2 WW2 ETO Bristol Blenheim Mk.IV Skin Pak (DAT)

By Wrench

SF2 WW2 ETO Bristol Blenheim Mk.IV Skin Pak (DAT)

-- Something for the WW2 ETO players --
= For SF2 ONLY, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =

This pack contains 2 new skins for the Dev A-Team's Bristol Blenhiem Mk.4.
*Note you MUST have access to the DAT downloads to get the aircraft. If you do not have access, do NOT download this mod, as you'll be unable to make use of it.*

New skins, from a (not so fantastic) Home Grown Template �, now give you standard RAF European Day Scheme camo from the 1940-late 41 time frame. The aircraft is finished in the standard Light Earth/Dark Green with Sky Unders.

Squadrons represented:

No. 105 (code GB)
No. 107 (code OM)

Skins remain in their bmp format (and are a bit on the LARGE size -2048x). End users that wish to may convert to jpg or resize as necessary. Decal randomization is set to TRUE. Both skins make use of a 'pool' of plane-in-group letters and serial numbers. Serials ARE historiclly accurate for the Mk.IV, but represent no particular unit.
Also included, never before released Hangar and Loading screens.

REMINDER: there is nothing in here but skin maps, decals and their associated inis. You'll need the aircraft itself from the DAT downloads, either the seperate aircraft, or the one in the Wings Over Africa all-inclusive mod.

As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. Please READ them.

Good Hunting!!
