F4D-1 Skyray ULTIMATE PACK for SF2


This mod aims to take the wonderful F4D-1 Skyray as created by Julhelm....and give it the ULTIMATE face-lift. Along with the 4 original skins and the fixes of Julhelm's updates.....I have ADDED 23.............YES TWENTY-THREE more authentic squadrons for you to choose from.

You now have access to EVERY operational Navy and Marine fighter squadron which operated the Skyray along with the VAST MAJORITY of utility and test squadrons as well. This is a large but COMPREHENSIVE file for Skyray lovers only!!

 

NEW NAVY SQUADRONS INCLUDED:

 

NATC of Patuxent River NAS, Maryland

VC-3 of Moffett FIeld NAS, Calif.

VX-3 of Oceana NAS, Virginia

VU-3 of North Island NAS, Calif.

VX-4 of Point Magu NAS, Calif.

VF-13 "Nightcappers"

VF-23 " Vigilantes"

VF-51 "Screaming Eagles"

VF-101 "Grim Reapers"

VF-141 "Iron Angels"

VF-162 "Hunters"

FAWTULANT of Key West NAS, Florida

Fleet Air Gunnery Unit Pacific (FAGU) of NAAS El Centro, Calif.

Naval Air Reserve Wing 88 of Olathe NAS, Kansas

US Naval Test Pilot School of Patuxent River NAS, Maryland

 

NEW USMC SQUADRONS INCLUDED:

 

H&MS-15

H&MS-24

VMF(AW)-114 "Death Dealers"

VMF(AW)-115 "Silver Eagles"

VMF(AW)-314 "Black Knights"

VMF(AW)-513 "Flying Nightmares"

VMF(AW)-531 "Grey Ghosts"

VMF(AW)-542 "Tigers"

 

Along with the new squadrons and COLORFUL SKINS.... you will find a tweeked fight model, more historically accurate weapons loadout, and a centerline NAV PAC like was carried on the real Skyray.

I have also corrected some inaccuracies on the VF(AW)-3 skin to better reflect the NORAD air defense history of this PROMINENT squadron......known as the "Blue Nemesis".

A new sound file for the J-57 engine is included. Now it even sounds like a Skyray!

An installation READ ME FILE is included.

 

Original CREDITS to Julhelm for his SUPERB Skyray model, cockpit and layered templates.........nicely done!!

Honorable mention to NeverEnough for bringing over the Skyray to SF2.

I overlooked one SQUADRONLIST entry in the download package. If you would like to add it to your Skyray package...it is as follows:

 

 

[squadronxxx]

Name=VMFaw531

DisplayName=VMF(AW)-531 'Grey Ghosts'

Nation=USMC

 

 

Be sure to keep the numerical sequence correct in the xxx position.

The link doesn't seem to be working

 

I uploaded a new version with the 2 fixes for the Squadronlist and Userlist ini files. It just has to be approved again and then will be available (which it is now)....ENJOY!!
