* Air Attack strategy now reflects Swedens military objectives during the Cold War
* New Aircraft (Tunnan versions mostly, but also Pauls J-33 Venom)
* A cleanup of the Swedish Air Force divisions.
* More variety in enemy aircraft, including MiG-19s and Tu-4 Bombers.
Synopsis:
In 1956, diplomatic talks about the Baltic Sea region betweenFinland, Sweden and the Soviet Union broke down. Angered and afraid of NATOs influence in Scandinavia, The Soviet Union demands that Finland and Sweden joins the Warsaw pact to ensure the borders of the Union.
Both countries refuse. On October 1th, the Soviet Union deploys forces to force the countries into the pact.
Sweden, Finland and Norway set condition Isbjörn, activating an alliance against Soviet Agression and rallies to defend Scandinavia...
Installation Instructions:
Simply unzip it all into your mod folder. I would advise you to use a clean installation so there is as little risk as possible
for errors. This mod does not overwrite any original data and can be used alongside any Central Europe themed mod Campaign - in theory.
If you own Strike Figthers 2 Israel, unzip the "Install_if_you_have_SFI_Exp1" file into the mod folder as well, and allow any overwrites.
Important Notes:
SF2 Europe is a requirement. Preferably, use a fully merged installation. The Terrain itself is not very combatible with the other games, hence the requirement.
While the DLC 008 Hawker Hunter is not required, its strongly recommended for this campaign.
If you have the A-21R from A-Team Site, This campaign has a squadron that flies it - if installed.
Kindly report any bugs or issues to me by PM or in proper thread.
