Used Spinners Lightning56 as a start, then added EF2000 Typhoon avionics ,missile racks from pay ware F-14Z(inspired by F15EX - thanks to Tempest II) , used TW F6 skins and played with the loadout.Simple modding stuff as I'm no expert !

      View File [Fictional] BAC Lightning F.6N 'NATO'
      BAC Lightning F.6N for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2:Europe
      This mod is meant for those without the Strike Fighters 2 Expansion Pack 2 (for Strike Fighters 2 Europe) and is a simple mod of Russouk2004's superb BAC Lightning F.Mk6 from the SF1 archives to give a fictional F.6N (N for NATO) in service with four NATO air forces (Italy, The Netherlands, Spain and the UK) in a 1966 to 1988 timeline. 
      Unfortunately, the 3D model has some issues with decal bleed on the vertical tail and also with shadow 'ropes' but I've elected to leave shadows ON. I've had a play with the FM by pasting in some Third Wire Lightning DNA including adding 'ghost' outer wings to allow for this 3D model having a one-piece wing whereas the Third Wire Lightning has a two-piece wing and I've also fiddled with the mass fractions to distribute the weight. It flies really nice and will perform a 'hands free' take-off (flaps down, throttle up, brakes off) with the usual ability to supercruise and climb supersonicly.  As this mod is meant for those without the Strike Fighters 2 Expansion Pack 2 I've used the pit from the stock F-4B Phantom.
       
      INSTRUCTIONS
      1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the LightningF6N folder into your Aircraft folder.
      2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the LightningF6N folder into your Decals folder.
      3. From the SOUNDS folder drag and drop both files into your Sounds folder.
      Bingo Fuel!

      CREDITS
      As always, thanks to Third Wire for a great little game/sim.
      Massive thanks to Russouk2004 for creating the Lightning F.Mk6 a real British thoroughbred.
      Thanks also to Sundowner for the silver/NMF Lightning skin used for all eight skins with tail markings pasted on top by yours truly.
      And, finally, thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.

      View File TW EE Lightning (All) Gunsight corrections
      After michaelk's F.1 Cockpit Tweak uploaded recently I realised I never released my TW EE Lightning Gunsight corrections from 2020! So here you are:
      So after reading the pilots notes for the F.1, F.2A and F.6 and looking at gunsight camera pictures it turns out the gun sights and event markers are all based off the Lightning F.53
      So here they are corrected:
      - F.1, F.1A, F.2, F.2A fitted with "Pilot Attack Sight"
      - F.3 fitted with "Light Fighter Sight Type 2 Mk. 2"
      - F.6  fitted with "Light Fighter Sight Type 2 Mk. 3"
      To Install simply un-pack and drop into the 'objects' folder in your main mods folder.
