View File [Fictional] Lockheed Starfighter F.2
Lockheed Starfighter F.2 for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2:Europe
This is a simple mod of the stock Third Wire F-104G to give a 'what if' Starfighter F.2 interceptor-fighter with markings for ten classic 1960's RAF Fighter Command squadrons - mainly real world Lightning squadrons but with No.43 Squadron added in as they were a famous interceptor squadron in the Phantom era. The service dates are confined to 1963 to 1969 but you can easily edit this to suit your tastes.
RAF Squadrons covered; 5, 11, 19, 23, 29, 43, 56, 74, 92, 111.
INSTRUCTIONS
1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the StarfighterF2 folder into your Aircraft folder.
2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the StarfighterF2 folder into your Decals folder.
That's it!
CREDITS
As always, thanks to Third Wire for a great little game/sim.
Special thanks to bobrock for the excellent F-104G template used here for the skin and the specular maps.
And, finally, thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.
Regards

Douglas Skyraider FB.3 for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2
This is a simple mod of the stock 'AI' Thirdwire A-1H to give a flyable 'what if' RAF Skyraider FB.3 with markings for No.6 Squadron, No.8 Squadron and No.112 Squadron in a mid-1950's to mid-1960's timeline.
Whilst this mod is meant for Strike Fighters 2 is does require you to have Strike Fighter 2: Vietnam so that you have the necessary Third Wire A-1H LOD's that are, of course, not included here.
INSTRUCTIONS
1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the SkyraiderFB3 folder into your Aircraft folder.
2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the SkyraiderFB3 folder into your Decals folder.
That's it!
CREDITS
As always, thanks to Third Wire for a great little game/sim.
Special thanks to Wrench for the lines and rivets from his 2048 x 2048 Skyraider templates squeezed into my 1024 x 1024 templates.
Extra special thanks to CA_Stary for the cockpit.
And, finally, thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.

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.
