my odd early jets wishlist

[+Stary 2,427]

for the 1947 till 1950s european campaigns I have in mind:

 

Tu-4 (new model)

Il-20

Il-40

Il-40p

Yak-15 new model /Yak-17

Yak-19

Yak-30

 

Hornet

P.228

Westland P.1956

Attacker

Swift

 

Ouragan

Mystere II

Bretagne

 

new proper Fury

plus possibly

new Cutlass

Pirate

Starfire (proper C version)

 

why? Everyone has some wishlists, it's time for mine as I am more interested in the beginnings of jet flight era

and yes I slipped and hit myself in the head hard

pluslet's face it, SF2 is juuust perfect for 1950s

[+Kulbit80 1,399]

...and new Scorpions, and...

[B52STRATO 215]

And add a what-if 'in service' list with the SE 2410 Grognard for CAS and a Gilbert XF-120 (we not gonna call it the XB-51 don't we?).

[jeanba 1,920]

The Ouragan model is ok, but I miss a nice cockpit, same for the Vautours and Super Mystere.

[+FLOGGER23 3,064]

Ouragan on the works Tio Mek...

[Stratos 3,192]

 Gilbert XF-120 (we not gonna call it the XB-51 don't we?).

 

I agree in the Stary list plus the one above!!!

[charlielima 328]

That's a good list !

How about

F3D / EF-10B Sky Knight

PBM Mariner and Marlin

AD-5N / AD-5S Skyraider

also ?

How bout the AJ Savage - Early Navy bomber & Tanker for the 50's.

[+Stary 2,427]

I'm having ideas for some ETO limited conflicts so more UK ADA vs Warsaw Pact.

 

some can be stand ins using similar airframes tbh.

re: Ouragan and Super Mysteré cockpits: on my list after the Thunderjets/Thunderstreaks and some Yaks

And my ideas don't have that whole NATO baloney in there

[slick cowboy 142]

I second a proper Fury, FJ-3 and FJ-4.

Maybe also a new F-9F Cougar with new pit

Churchill would have called that Unthinkable!

[Stratos 3,192]

The Furies need those late variants. Thats for sure!

[NIELS 421]

Along with new Fury variants how bout the F-86H also?

I'm not flying the Gilbert XF-120 --- it almost killed William Holden, and DID kill James Garner. (yes, I know the film VERY well)

 

Pasko's Cougar needs replacing ... it (like most others) has some minor and sometimes major issues (try activating the wingfold animation, and see what I mean). Decal bleeds and mapping issues not withstanding.

Same can be said for his F9F-5 Panther. Needs replacing.

 

As to the FJ Fury, I guess you all missed the re-mod Russ and I did of the -2/-3s ?? The only thing it lacks is folding wings.

 

A new Cutlass would be nice -- the Beta - (minus) we have is, well, not all that great.

 

As to the Mystere/SuperMystere is there something wrong with the stock 3W versions? Also, didn't Bobrock or someone do a 3rd Party version, iirc, with a working rocket tray?

 

-===

I assume you're talking pure Freeware ™ models, as these 3

 

Hornet

Attacker

Swift

 

are available from Everybody's Good Buddies ™

[+Stary 2,427]

Everybody's good buddies means DAT? Yes but those are old and have some issues in SF2.

 

As for Sabre H I have the max file of what is basically ready beta, must check it out one day. Heck I think it's posted in the modders depository for everyone with modder status to grab? Same with my new MiG-9 but it needs more work

[fallenphoenix1986 603]

 

Westland P.1956

 

 

"Flying Stations" : http://www.flyingstations.com/wyvern.html

 

Its Gen one so will likely ned work but it is available.

 

 

Wouldn't mind a new Sea Hawk, Sea Vixen and an FJ4 Fury myself.

I swear I did an SF2 update for Skippy's Wyvern...but can't find it in the downloads. Maybe I never finished it???

 

Yes, Stary, that would be Zur's partly finished 86H.

I have his F6F Hellcat max files, too. But it needs a LOT of reworking....sadly

 

New Seahawks are definitely needed, if only to be reworked with folding wings for proper CV parking. Wish we could get buny's max files...which probably don't exist anymore

[+Menrva 4,201]

Look Wrench, here is the link to the update you did to the Wyvern: http://combatace.com/files/file/15392-sf2-westland-wyvern-s4-tweeks-pak/

And this is a must have skin pack for the very same plane, by Paulopanz: http://combatace.com/files/file/13771-westland-wyvern-s-4-definitive-skin-pack/

 

PS: Thank the search function, it saves a lot of time

 

BTW I missed the re-mod of the FJ Fury that Russ and you did, gotta find it.

dumb ass me!! I was looking in Aircraft!! See what happens when you old!! ???

 

I have all of the skins installed (looking at the aircraft's folder), but they weren't part of the pack. Paulo's work is OUTSTANDING!!

Here's the FJ-3M pak (it's under F-86 Sabre)

I just downloaded this again.

The VMF-333 skin I think is from FOTF.

But I can't find it.

I sniveled hard for this skin and would like to have this for the handsome Zur Navy F-86 like Fury bird.

I know I know, but that is a plane I really like, and it make me think in a 101 Vodoo on steroids.

 

And yes, I will love a FJ-4, in fact Dave told me ther'e one as a WIP, but thats at least 4 years ago.

[Wrench 9,850]

CL:

I just check the Fury V2 download zip here at CA, and 333 is most definitely included. In fact, the pack is a bit heavy due to me forgetting to remove some of the old bitmap skins.

Checking the main ini, VMF-333 is the last one listed. Please check again in game, if you would, and the folders themselves. It shows up for me!
