Third Wire MiG-23MLD update & flyable for SF2


Third Wire MiG-23MLD update & flyable for SF2

-    Made flyable with the MLD cockpit and avionics available here at CA by Stary 
-    Leading edge flaps fixed to now automatically deploy during manoeuvring as they did on the MLD with the type 3 wing.
-    Radar data and performance is corrected from the S-23MLA radar to the S-23MLA-II radar as fitted in the MLD.
-    KDS-23 countermeasure dispenser installed in the centreline drop tank pylon. This is a 12 shot chaff/ flare countermeasure dispenser that could be used once the drop tank had been jettisoned.
-    Ejection seat (from ODS mod) and more suitable pilot added.
-    Canopy can be opened and closed.
-    Primary and secondary roles expanded to reflect the evolution of the MLD version of the MiG-23 into a more multi role fighter platform.
-    Loadouts enhanced and corrected. Some Afghanistan specific ones added.
-    Used of Kh-25M air-to-surface missile and datalink pod added.
-    Fuselage AA-8 positions corrected.
-    Removed ECM jammer.
-    Updated weapons from the RSSW 099 mod.
-    Various Soviet- Afghan war skins added.

Drop into your main mods folder to install, OVER-RIDE!!!

CombatAce fair agreement applies.

Great addition! Are you planning to do anything similar for the other MiG-23s? The cockpit by Stary should be good for most M versions.

      Soviet Spitfires x 2 for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 
      This is a simple mod of the stock Spitfire IXc and clipped-wing Spitfire IXe to create flyable Spits in service with the Soviet Air Force in the 1943-1945 timeline. I've chosen to put these into the 'what-if' hangar due to the very generic nature of the 'winter' schemes and markings but please note that both of the 'summer' schemes are based on real aircraft and include Spitfires flown by the famous pilots Juan Lario Sanchez (Yellow 3) and Alexander Karpov (White 32).

      INSTRUCTIONS
      1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the Spitfire9c_Sov and Spitfire9e_Sov folders into your Aircraft folder.
      2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the Spitfire9c_Sov and Spitfire9e_Sov folders into your Decals folder.
      That's it! 
      Please note that you will need a suitable 'prop' pilot. 
      Please also note that you should really create a new nation for a WW2 Soviet Union. Experienced WW2 players will probably already have one but check your nation name as it might be different from my preferred nation name of 'SovietWW2'.
       
      CREDITS
      As always, thanks to Third Wire for a great little game/sim.
      Extra special thanks to Starfighter2 for the Spitfire cockpit.
      And, finally, thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.

      Dear Friends,
      Today we present to you the 5.104 update. It brings a new campaign and new mission types for Career mode.
      5.104 UPDATE
      The new historical campaign Sky Nomads now is already available on our website and on Steam. It continues the story of the Soviet fighter pilot you may know from the Blazing Steppe campaign. After having fought in the Stalingrad battle in 1942, in 1943 he found himself in a midst of a hectic battle of Kuban - the campaign title reflects a bit the nomad life of the 43rd IAP which had to constantly change airfields and endure several Luftwaffe strikes on its positions. There is more information about the campaign in our Dev Blog #344.

      New missions in the Career mode are photo reconnaissance, artillery spotting, and the escort of the transport aircraft on airdrop missions. The photo recon missions are now available with the Arado Ar. 234 of Sonderkommando Götz in Normandy (in the next update it will be also added to Spitfire XIVe). Artillery spotting missions are given to RAF squadrons No. 26 and No. 63 in Normandy which had the Spitfire MK.Vb and were specially trained for this task. The transport escort missions happen in the historical timeframes of the Normandy, Market Garden, Bastogne, and Varsity airborne operations - you can them in any Allied fighter squadron. Do your best to keep them safe on their way to the drop zone and back home!



      There are other changes and fixes in the list as well:
      5.104
      New historical campaign Sky Nomads (Yak-7b pilot in the battle of Kuban). There is detailed info about it in our Dev Blog #344; New Career mode missions: Photo Recon on jet Arado Ar. 234 in Normandy (Sonderkommando Götz); New Career mode missions: Artillery Spotting on Spitfire Mk.Vb in Normandy (No. 26 and No. 63 Squadrons RAF that were specially trained for this task); New Career mode missions: Transport Aircraft Escort of C-47s on their way to their drop zones during Normandy, Market Garden, Bastogne, and Varsity airborne operations timeframes; Tank campaigns Last Chance and Breaking Point are updated (added tactical numbers to aircraft involved, added new vehicles to some of the engagements); Many award descriptions updated; Ju 87D-3: the additional armor plate now moves together with the canopy as it should; Bf 109 G-6/AS: rockets correctly disappear when jettisoning their containers. WARBRD RACE 2023 WINNERS
      In other news - we have the winners of the air race finals. They will receive or have received gifts from us and VIRPIL Controls.

      As you can see, CSW_Tommy454 grabbed the first prizes in both categories - air races are unpredictable and two participants crashed in their Messerschmitts after performing a difficult maneuver! The race stream is available here.
      Also, if you have participated in the race qualification, don't forget to check your profile on IL-2 website - there is a -50% off promo code applicable to all released content, including the newest ones like Spitfire XIVe, SSW D.IV or Battle of Normandy.

      Finally, here's an artwork ready to become your desktop wallpaper for next month if you wish (FullHD, 4K).
      See you in the skies!
