Spinners Posted May 16, 2010 Posted May 16, 2010 View File [Fictional] Sud-Ouest Farandole II (MiG-15bis) Sud-Ouest Farandole II for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 This is a simple mod of the stock Third Wire MiG-15bis masquerading as a fictional Sud-Ouest competitor and rival to the Dassault Mystere IIC. Naturally, you will need the Strike Fighters 2 Expansion Pack One as it contains the MiG-15bis and also the Mystere IV pit. BACKSTORY When the straight-wing Sud-Ouest Farandole I lost out to the Dassault Ouragan for a production order they quickly schemed an improved swept-wing version known as the Farandole II utilising the same Hispano-Suiza Nene 104B engine. Working at speed the Sud-Ouest team flew the first prototype in October 1950 and the scintillating performance soon attracted the Armee de l'Air who ordered 150 production aircraft almost immediately leading to the cancellation of the Dassault Mystere IIC. Entering service in November 1952 the Farandole II was considered to be an interim type but served until 1960 with the Armee de l'Air and until 1974 with the Israeli Air Force who were the only export customer. INSTRUCTIONS 1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the Farandole2 folder into your Aircraft folder. 2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the Farandole2 folder into your Decals folder. 3. From the WEAPONS folder drag and drop the Farandole_Tank into your Weapons folder. That's it! CREDITS As always, thanks to Third Wire for a great little game/sim. And, finally, thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community. Regards Spinners Version 2 - February 5th, 2024 Submitter Spinners Submitted 05/16/2010 Category What If Hangar Quote
