SF2 Grumman C-2A(R) Greyhound Pack by Coyote Aerospace                   4/19/2023

-For SF2 =ONLY= (Full 5 Merged Required*)

This pack is the release of the C-2A Greyhound cargo/carrier-on-board delivery (COD) aircraft used by the US Navy. This mod represent the "C-2A(R) or "Reprocured" airframes as used from 1984 onwards. These are the 8-bladed prop versions. *This mod makes use of the stock 3W E-2C Hawkeye's destroyed model. SF2:NA is required to gain access to that lod. If you don't have NA, you may have to edit the data ini to use another destroyed model.*

The aircraft is finished in standard USN Gull Grey/White.   Serial number (BuNums) are 100% historly correct for this model, but should be considered generic in nature. 16 BuNums are provided, and Decal Randomization is TRUE. The templates for the skin are also supplied for other texture artists to use, and improve upon.

Skins supplied in this package are:

VRC-30 - original
       - 2009 scheme
       - 2015 scheme (various Dets)

VRC-40 - 1999 scheme
       - 2015 scheme
       - 2018 scheme

There are also some 'cargo pallets' as weapons, for loading in the cargo bay. (thanks to Cliff7600)

As is always recommended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. PLEASE read them, before installing!!!

I'd also like to take this time to thank Cliff7600 for volunteering to fix some (most) of the issues I couldn't. He also supplies some very nice new skins!!

*** Be advised, this model is being released in "As-Is" condition. As the model builder has retired, any issues not fixable via ini edits will remain as we have no access to the 3d MAX files ***

My extended thanks to the team for this release. 

We need proper ODS skins for the ODS 30AE mod. Any volunteers? References are available here: https://dstorm.eu/pages/en/usa/c-2.html

@Wrench By the way, during the development of ODS 30AE, I discovered that the E-2C_Destroyed.LOD model (and also Yak-38_Destroyed.LOD) actually don't exist in the game files. So if you crash, there's no destroyed model for those aircraft. I use the C-47A_Destroyed.LOD for the E-2C and for this C-2A, better than nothing.
