PAF Dakotas


PAF/RPAF C-47A Dakota For SF2 Full-5 merged(or at minimum SF2:I with Expansion pack1)

 

Overview:

These Dakotas were gained by the air arms of India and Pakistan after the partition of the Indo-Pak Subcontinent in 1947.Their primary roles were transport and sometimes resupply to ground troops.They were in service from 1947 to at least 1970.There has been speculation that some aircraft were modified as recon planes during the 1971 war.However,due to an almost complete lack of photos and technical reference,the history of these airframes cannot be traced.

 

The mod:

Presented in this mod are two skins to represent two different airframes of the Pakistan Air Force.Again,due to very little reference available for these aircraft,the skins are provided without tail numbers.

Two skins are provided:

 

-PAF Grey

-PAF Green

 

The Grey scheme is meant to represent the aircraft which transported Mohammed Ali Jinnah(the founder of Pakistan and the man behind the partition of the Indo-Pak Subcontinent).This aircraft was at that time in service with the Royal Pakistan Air Force for which accurate decals are provided.The Green scheme represents a few airframes in service with the Air Force in East Pakistan(now Bangladesh).These aircrafts were thought to be used as Recon platforms.

 

Installation:

After unzipping PAF Dakotas V1.0,paste the aircraft folder inside the objects folder inside your SF2 mod folder.Do the same for decals.When asked to overwrite,click yes.Note:If you do not know anything about the mod folder,the immediately stop the installation,go to the CombatACE Forums,Go to the Strike Fighters 2 Knowledge Base and take a look at the thread explaining the Strike Fighters 2 mod folder mechanism.

 

You have my full permission to modify and use these textures as well as the decals for your own mod(s) as long as I(Lazarus1177) am acknowledged as the original Author.

 

IMPORTANT:

I HEREBY CLAIM NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY OF THE CHANGES THIS MOD MAY RENDER TO YOUR GAME(Even though it doesn't).IF THIS MOD IS INSTALLED,THEN IT IS DONE ONLY BY THE WILL OF THE USER AND I CANNOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS.INSTALL AT YOUR OWN RISK.(The mod is perfectly safe,but I still claim no responsibility just to be safe!)
