Starfighters - Luftforsvaret 2.0.0

Royal Norwegian Air Force Starfighters. 

This mod is not to compete with any previous packs. It is just my different approach. So before removing/overwriting any of the older stuff, test this one - as you may not like it. 

Basic modding skills are required to run this mod.  (copy/paste, mod folder structure, etc.) 

Install:
Copy and paste specific folders into the correct destination.

In the game, under a prefix.LFV. * You will find  F-104G / CF-104  that served in the Norwegian Air Force.

* Luftforsvaret

A fake pilot is required to run this mod. Also, the Thirdwire F-104 cockpit is required from the original game. 
Fuel tanks- Tanks are just ini files. The mod uses tanks that are part of an aircraft lod.
Now mod uses an additional "no-fuel -no-tanks" loadout. Simply, If you want ot fly with a clean wing chose from the loadout dropdown menu option - no tanks. You need this specific weapon in the weapons folder.
I have added some new pilot models, you can switch them easly in data.ini file, if you have such a desire.

All skins are in 4096x4096 format. You can easily resize as needed.  

Decals represent historically correct serial numbers assigned to aircraft during their service in the Norwegian Air Force, for a specific year, squadron, etc.

Historically, the first Norwegian starfighters were RF-104 versions, but without cameras, and during the first IRAN converted to F-104G type. Those airframes were only in a castrated RF configuration for a few months. Additionally, in 1965, three airframes arrived in Norway, but those three were built by Canadair. They were also in F-104G configuration and had all the remarks of F-104G, not CF-104. Also, those three were painted light grey. Not silver aluminium like previous birds. In this mod, I did not play so strictly with history, and all those 19 starfighters are F-104G with one silver paint.
The first CF-104 arrived in Norway in 1973. All were formed in one 334 squadron, and carried a slightly different mission profile than the older F-104G. I could write a little more about history, but probably most of you will never read this or do not care about what I have written here. (which is already proven after my recent uploads) So I will pass...
