SLUFs on Guard: A-7D in Air National Guard service 1974-1993
This mod adds several new skins to showcase the stock ThirdWire A-7D as it appeared in Air National Guard service. This mod includes two "new" A-7 variants based off the stock A-7D_78, mainly for ease of incorporating skins and saving 500MB of space!
The A-7D Corsair II (most commonly called the SLUF) first entered service in the Air Guard with the 188th Tactical Fighter Squadron, New Mexico ANG, in early 1974. The SLUF went on to serve with 16 different squadrons of the ANG, 15 of which are presented here (Arizona's 162nd TFS was the schoolhouse and flew predominantly A-7K two seaters). The A-7D finally bowed out of USAF service when the 162d Fighter Squadron, Ohio ANG, retired theirs in early 1993.
REQUIREMENTS
This mod requires you to have STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 EUROPE for the A-7D_75 and _78 it is based on. You could adapt rename the skins for use with the A-7D found in SF2 or SF2V,
but thats 5 files in 60 some skins.
INSTALLATION
UNZIP MAIN FOLDER, PUT OBJECTS FOLDER INTO DESIRED MOD FOLDER
Included
4 Aircraft: A-7D_75, A-7D_78, A-7D_83, A-7D_88,
59 Skins and tga sets covers the major schemes used by all covered units
historic serials well, fairly historic. this was a tough nut to crack and airframes are matched to units as best as possible.
nose arts for the gray 112th TFS (Ohio ANG) and all 149th TFS (Virginia ANG)
weapons regular bombs modded by me to boost base supply levels. other weapons that could be seen later in life added too including the LANA FLIR pod
ini edits mostly tweaking weapons loadouts. Air Guard SLUFs were more likely to carry basic bomb loads rather than the precision guided toys. and rarely had tanks
Credits
Nyghtfall, Svetlin AN/AAR-45 LANA skin. Nyghtfall did the bulk of the psd work, Svetlin the panel lines and was kind enough to share it with me.
