Sumter County Tactical: F-16C/Ds and RF-4Cs of the 363rd Tactical Fighter Wing, 1986 1.0.0

  Sumter County Tactical: F-16C/Ds and RF-4Cs of the 363rd TActical Fighter Wing, 1986
 
This mod represents the 363rd Tactical Fighter Wing in 1986 after its fighter squadrons completed conversion from the A/B mode F-16s to the C/D Block 25 F-16s. The wing was also still operating the RF-4C Phantom II in the 16th TRS, while the 33rd TFS stood up on the Block 25s and the 17th and 19th TFSs converted.

            Included
F-16C and D Block 25 aircraft
RF-4C(75) and (85) aircraft
Weapons for both aircraft
Sounds and Effects for all

            Required
copy of StrikeFighters 2: Israel for F-16 destroyed model

            Installation
unzip "2 mod folder"; place contents in desired mod folder. Allow overwrites if necessary

            NOTE
The F-16C_25 aircraft tends to pitch up rapidly resulting in a tail strike if player does not fly carefully. This problem is noted in several FMs and as far back as the Block 25 in NATO Fighters 5. There is no fix at this time although it is more immersion killer than damaging to the aircraft. Best to keep the nose down until rotation speed (varies by load) then "pop" the aircraft off the runway and climb out.
