Nice work mate! You just need to add EOGB to the weapon stations so it can carry JDAM weapons.

Took it out for a test drive just now, the decoy dispensers are rigged wrong.

 


[FlareStation1]
SystemType=DECOY_DISPENSER
EjectPosition=-0.294,-3.265,0.601
EjectVelocity=-8.00,0.00,8.00
NumChaff=0
NumFlare=30

[FlareStation2]
SystemType=DECOY_DISPENSER
EjectPosition=0.294,-3.265,0.601
EjectVelocity=8.00,0.00,8.00
NumChaff=0
NumFlare=30

[ChaffStation1]
SystemType=DECOY_DISPENSER
EjectPosition=0.294,-3.265,-0.601
EjectVelocity=0.00,0.00,-8.00
NumChaff=60
NumFlare=0

[ChaffStation2]
SystemType=DECOY_DISPENSER
EjectPosition=-0.294,-3.265,0.601
EjectVelocity=-8.00,0.00,8.00
NumChaff=30
NumFlare=0

[ChaffStation3]
SystemType=DECOY_DISPENSER
EjectPosition=0.294,-3.265,0.601
EjectVelocity=8.00,0.00,8.00
NumChaff=30
NumFlare=0

 

Each dispenser holds 30 cartridges, whether they're chaff or flares. It's only the Air Force that uses bigger cartridges for flares sometimes. (The older version I had installed had too many chaff/flare rounds, instead of too few. The locations checked out though.)

 

 

Other than that though, very nice job.

      View File [Fictional] Hawker Harrier Mk.51 - Fuerza Aérea del Perú
      Hawker Harrier Mk.51 for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2
      This is a very simple mod of the stock Third Wire Harrier GR.1 to give a fictional Harrier Mk.51 as it might have appeared when in service with the Fuerza Aérea del Perú. Fictional markings are included for Escuadrón Aéreo 112 and Escuadrón Aéreo 113. 
      You will need to have SF2:E for the Harrier LOD's which are not included. For the record, this mod uses a little bit (more) artistic licence from me in so much that Fuerza Aérea del Perú aircraft normally only have a roundel on the port upper wing but I've applied it to both wings upper and lower.

      INSTRUCTIONS
      1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the Harrier51 folder into your Aircraft folder.
      2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the Harrier51 folder into your Decals 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.

      Hawker Harrier Mk.59 for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2
      This is a very simple mod of wpnssgt's cracking little AV-8S 'Matador' to give a fictional Harrier Mk.59 as it might have appeared in service with the Comando de Aviación Naval Argentina and fictional markings are included for 3ra Escuadrilla Aeronaval de Caza y Ataque (3rd Fighter/Attack Squadron).

      INSTRUCTIONS
      1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the Harrier59 folder into your Aircraft folder.
      2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the Harrier59 folder into your Decals folder.
      3. From the WEAPONS folder drag and drop the Tank_AV8S_COAN folder into your Weapons folder.
      That's it!

      CREDITS
      Massive thanks to wpnssgt for the 3D model. Having only joined this community in early 2008 I'm guessing that this predates the Harrier contained in Wings Over Europe and, if so, then fair play - it's a beaut! As I've said before, "there's gold in them thar archives"!
      Thanks also to C5 for the FM and to Sundowner for the skin.

      View File AV-8B Plus Harrier II (Marina Militare)
      AV-8B Plus Harrier Marina Militare
      This is the AV-8B Plus Harrier in service with the Italian navy. 
      Basic modding skills are required to run this mod.  (copy/paste, mod folder structure etc.) A fake pilot is needed to run this mod. 
      It is designed for and works only in SF2 series.
       
      Skin is in 4096x4096 format. So you can easily resize down.  If you have problems running this in game. Resize skins to lower resolutions
      All serials are correct for the Italian version of Harrier II. 
      Animations:
      1= canopy open - close
      4= refueling probe - beware of a speed limit
      3= night vision mode - not really helping but it is there - inside and outside animation.
      ************************************************************************************
      You can exlplore ini files for some additional features like in cockpit "FLIR" feed on HUD .
      AAQ-28 can be loaded only on station number 5 and centerline
      AIM-120 can be loaded only on stations 2 and 6.
      ECM also activates RWR on digital display indicator - even if ECM pod is not loaded.
      If you have yakarov79´s AV-8B Harrier already  - some files are same so simply overwrite. 
      for proper sound work you should add these lines into soundlist.ini
       
      SoundFileXXX=USMComm_1
      SoundFileXXX=Equalizer
      [Equalizer]
