About This File
The is not the perfect F-15CJ_Kai.
This aircraft is base on the Stock F-15A SF2, you would need to have SF2 and/or Merged SF2 installed.
I have made a lot of tweaks on the plane. You can modify it to your own liking.
Thus, weapons and effects is not included, check download section for your preference.
Don't worry if you do not have the effects or weapons installed, the game will DEFAULT to SF2 Stock weapons for the specific time period.
Copy the content of the respect folders to your folder:
"Aircraft" to your "Object Aircraft folder."
"Decals", copy the entire decals folder content and paste it onto your decal folder. I was unable to use specific squadron
for decal folder, as it does not show up on the aircraft.
All of my skin has extensive logos on it... as the JASDF likes to change logos and decals often.
The lack of accuracy consist of:
-The feathers on the engine nozzle is still in place.
-The various antennas that is not shown or updated as per MSIP II and after.
-The larger bullet fairing on the left vertical stab. (should be the thin one).
-The speed brake position when deploy is not accurate (TK did not made the model to extend further).
-I was unable to have all the decals on the RIGHT "outter" vertical stab. and LEFT "inner" vertical stab. to face forward (toward the nose) as per actual aircraft. Two aircraft, the RIGHT "inner" logo is not facing forward.
-The skin pattern/color is not accurate, BUT the JASDF is notorious for having various skin patterns and decals at a drop of a hat... so I am not that much off.
-I'm sure you can find more but that is what is great about this game series... you can CREATE and CHANGE to your liking!
The file contain all of the current JASDF F-15CJ squadrons with the "EXCEPTION" of two skins.
