SF2 "What If" Blackburn Shark F.1 3/9/2016

 

*= For SF2 -ONLY-!! Full-5 Merged Reccomended =*

 

**NOTE! you MUST have the stock 3rdWire Meteor F8 as part of your merged install; this aircraft references this stock cockpit***

 

This package contains a NEW "What If..." aircraft for Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm usage in the post-war (1948-1955) time frame. Everything is included, excpeting the cockpit, as noted above

 

Skins included are for the following FAA units:

 

No.763 NAS (HMS Victorious)
No.803 NAS (HMS Ark Royal)
No.893 NAS (HMS Centaur)

 

Markings are (pretty much) correct for the late-post WW2 time frame.
All 3 skins use a 'pool' of plane-in-squadron and serial numbers. There are 24 of each. All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. In the decals folder are several other "CV tail codes", and a blank create more, if one wished to do so.
The aircraft is fully carrier certified. All weapons used are stock 3W items - hence the need for Full-5 merged.

 

As always, fairly easy to follow, yet detailed install instructions are included. PLEASE read them!!! Also, as usual, give the "Notes and Comments" section a read, too.

Nice one. Thank you.

Just an idea:  a two seat night fighter version with radar, perhaps in a thimble nose?

[+Wrench]

redesign of the nose would be required for the AI Mk.21 & later (or SCR-720 equlivant). relocation of guns to lower nose. It's up to Cocas as what he wants to do; or more presciesly, what's to be represented/accomplished.

 

besides, for the time frame, AEW Skyradiers or Avengers would be on picket, and able to direct fighters (re: USN early carrier night figher operations -- TBM with radar, directing F6Fs to target. That's how we lost Butch O'Hare)

Might be done but not any time soon sorry

What´s the real name of this beast? It was a late war Project based on the Me 262, isn´t it? I´m trying to find any source on Net but without its name is hard.
