Civil Sabres: CL-13s of Flight Systems Incorporated
This mod highlights the target tugs of Flight Systems Incorporated (FSI). FSI provided target dart towing services for various 12th Air Force units west of the Mississippi River in the late 1970s through late 1980s. They also had a detachment operating out of Kadena AB and providing the same service for Japan and Korea based units. This mod also include a bare metal skin without Tracor marking for anyone that wants to try their hand at skinning some warbirds. Many of the Sabres on the airshow circuit have been and still are Canadair rather than North American
Included
new aircraft via ini edit (but with Mk6 Sabre models and skin templates
4 skins (2 white and 2 bare metal), tgas for FSI aircraft,
Installation
unzip, add contents of "2 mod folder" to install of your choice
Note
As a "civil" aircraft I took most of the offensive capability off this aircraft. Gun ammo dropped to zero, rocket pod stations removed. The real life aircraft pulled a target dart through the sky to be shot at. For in game, you play the part of the rabbit, aiming to overfly a point on the map without being shot down.
But I did leave the bomb and Sidewinder stations on. I figure the Kadena birds might have had a point defense commitment if the balloon had gone up, and the ability to carry two M117s and drop is still fun. But this aircraft was not meant for combat action IRL or in game. It is not my responsibility if you get shot down in game because you forgot this isn't the Yalu in 1953!!!
