SF2 Tu-16 Badger Pack by Pasko 1.0.0

SF2 Tu-16 Badger Pack by Pasko       11/1/2024

-For SF2, Full 5 Merged REQUIRED. Must Have SF2:NA!!!!!)
-Another 1stGen Salvage Operation-

This is a revamp of Pasko's Tu-16 Badger(s) from SF1 to SF2 "standards". This package contains the 3 variants of the Badger he and his team created 'way back in 2005. As stated above, a full-5 merged install is required; or at =LEAST= having SF2:NA in the merged install. This is because the Cruise Missile versions use the stock 3W cruise missiles (Although I've supplied the early versions).
The 3 aircraft included herein are ...

Tu-16 Badger-A (free fall bombs only)
Tu-16K-10-26 Badger C (cruise missiles only; 1 centerline, 2 wing mounted)
Tu-16G Badger K (2 cruise missiles, wing mounted only)

A cockpit is supplied for each, with a working bombsight for the standard bomber. (See notes about the issues flying bombers in SF2). All weapons, execpting the KS-1 & KSR-2 missiles are stock 3W items (FAB, RBK, K10S). All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. All new Hangar and Loading screens have also been included, for you enjoyment.

The aircraft are supplied with a number skins for the varying Air Force users. Some (re)use their original 1stGen decals, with a slight repaint to stop any 'fuzziness'. Many decals used (for Middle East and Soviet birds) are stock items. You'll get:

Tu-16A:
Soviet Silver
Ukraine Silver (<1991)
Egypt AF Silver (<1966)
Iraq Silver (<1973)
Indonesia Silver (<1961)
PLAAF China Sliver (<1959) 
Iraq Green Stripe Camo (<1978)*
Iraq Sand/Green Camo (<1980)*

Tu-16C:
Soviet Naval Aviation Silver (blue borts)

Tu-16G:
Soviet Naval Aviation Silver (blue borts)

As indicated above, you can see the the SF2 "date switch" is active. The star (*) tagged above indicates these years are "best guess". When possible the original readme for all skins are within each skin folder, and notes are sometimes made on the textureset.ini. The PLAAF bird only gets 24 bort number decals, which are (hopefully!) historically correct and nearly the right color blue <grin>! Pilot figures are also included. For exact in-game usage for the C & G models, I'd suggest giving their data inis a looksee, as they have several Secondary Roles to fulfill.

When in-game, on the Aircraft Selection Drop down you'll see:

Tu-16 Badger-A (Pasko)
Tu-16K-10-26 Badger C (Pasko)
Tu-16G Badger K (Pasko)

The (Pasko) differentializes these from the stock 3W Badgers (and any mods thereof). So you can't mistook them for anything other than what they is. 

As always fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. All original readmes, when discoverable, are included. The 'Change Log' is of course, in the Notes section below. 

Good Hunting & Happy Landings!
