NOTE: This is an Upgrade Kit For Rafael's AMX v2.0 That Converts The AMX To Both Italian & Brazilian Versions.

 

==============

AMX Nations Kit v2.1

 

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

 

Installation :

 

1. Download Rafael, C-5, & USAFMTL's AMX v2.0 from http://www.avsim.com/ & install per the v2.0 readme.

 

2. Make a copy of the aircraft folder, then make sure one copy is named AMX, and one copy is named AMX-1.

 

3. Open the AMX folder included in the AMX nations kit & place those files in your AMX folder.

 

4. Open the AMX-1 folder included in the AMX nations kit & place these files in your AMX-1 folder.

Allow the nations kit cockpit folder to overwrite the cockpit folder in your AMX-1 folder.

 

5. You should have SFP1 patch SP3.1, or WOV Patch 2 installed. You should also have the latest weapons pack installed.

 

If not, the weaponsdata.ini entry for the Brazilian MAA-1 Piranha missile will need to be added using the weapons editor :

=====================

 

Notes :

 

1. Rafael's excellent AMX was released prior to the advent of both the weapons pack project, and Thirdwire's release of

patch SP3.1 & WOV Patch 2. This kit updates the AMX to both the Italian AMX AMI version and the Brazilian version by

EMBRAER. As such, both versions now have the appropriate cannon armament, as well as radar, RWR, and ECM capabilities.

2. Italian AMX AMIs were used primarily as light ground attack craft with limited air intercept functions. As such their

primary heatseeking missile is the AIM-9L. They replaced both G-91 and F-104 aircraft in Italian service.

3. The AMX-1 EMBRAERs in Brazilian service generally carried Hydra rockets, and the AIM-9P series of IRMs. Beginning in

2002, the AIM-9Ps were replaced with the indiginous Orbita MAA-1 Piranha missiles. The EMBRAER built AMX-1s also carry

the more capable Scipio SCP-01 radar to aid in air intercepts.

4. Please note that the config.inis for both versions of the AMX include data for all currently availible AMX skins, both

Italian and Brazilian. These skins are availible for download at both AVSIM and the MarcFighters section at CombatAce.
