SF2  EE Lightning F Mk.6, No. 5 Squadron Skin Pack                                      3/20/2026

-For SF2 =ONLY= (Full/5 Merged w/Expansion Pack)

*The stock Lightning F.Mk6 is REQUIRED for this mod*

Here we have a new(ish) skin for the stock 3rdWire Lightning Mk.6, from the SF2E expansion pack. It is finished in the 'Barley Grey' uppers, with Lo-Viz markings. It depicts No. 5 Squadron wearing it's "Shark Mouth" nose markings, and reuses the stock 'RAFGrey1' as it's base.

All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. All 26 serial numbers are historically correct for F.Mk6s used by No 5 squadron. Those with a star (*) have been matched exactly to the plane-in-group letters. Those with the cross or plus sign (+) could not be matched to letter. Those with no mark, while having served in #5 as some point were either used on aircraft with the same letters, or could not be matched. This skin makes use of the SF2 "date switch" and will automatically turn on in 1982.

Also included are a slightly modified cockpit, data, and loadout inis, and repainted gunsight tgas, making them brighter for those of us with not so good eyes, no matter the monitor!! <gr>. A skin specific Hangar Screen was also created for the mod, in (semi) wide screen (1152x864). The data ini adds some 'hardening' to the airframe, and a manual opening canopy, using the standard animation keystroke (tm), Shift/0 (zero). The loadout ini adds the drop tanks for all mission tasking, when possible.

As is always recommended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. PLEASE read them, before installing!!! 
Please read the Notes section for any other useless bits of information, and full credits. I've also included 
Please also take note of changes in the Standard Disclaimer in the "Legal BS" section at the bottom.

Good Hunting & Happy Landings!
