F-11F-1 Tiger for SF2

Grumman F-11F-1 Tiger

 

-- For SF2, Any and All --

 

This is an upgrade package of the F-11F by Fleet Defender & Co (originally released in 2005). All the skins and decals have been updated, with many new ones created. Ini edits fix the overbright landing light; other tweeks add new AI sections, place weapons more centered on the pylons, round count corrected, and some other minor adjustments. A new avionics ini is included, that adds the radar ranging gunsight. The cockpit used is the stock A-4B Skyhawk, which is available in all versions of SF2, excepting stand-alone SF2:I mods folders. Merged installs should have no issues whatsomever. The lead-computing gunsight statements have also been added.

 

4 skins and decals are included in this pak (all that I could find!). They are:

 

VA-156 (which became VF-111 in 1959)

VF-21

VF-33

VF-111

 

Skins are by various artists, hopefully listed (correctly!) in the Credits below. Several of the skins were repainted, from a partial template I created, to remove the painted on Modex numbers. These are now all decals.

 

Weapons included are just the 150 gallon drop tank; all others use stock in-game items.

I've added several Mission profiles that I'm sure the actual aircraft did NOT perform (Strike, CAS, Armed Recon, and Anti-Ship). They're there for the playability factor. If you don't want to perform them, just edit them out of the data ini.

 

As always, READ the enclosed readme for full, detailed instructions. This package has been broken down into the various folders that SF2 needs/requires/should have, to make it a LOT easier to install. Also, as usual, the expected 'Notes and Other Nonesense' comments by me.

A full credits listing of those that worked on it, or contributed parts are below, and in the original release readme included.

 

Happy Landings!

another great update.Thanks.

Cool one, probably the most elegant jet Grumman ever built. Was overdue for an update!

 

Any chance on a F-11F-1F Supertiger? With its J79-engine, APQ-50 radar, sparrows, and sidewinder launchrails on upper fuselage this one would have been a potent fighter:

Impressive yes, but more brutish than elegant if you ask me... It's in the eye of the beholder
