View File F-15EX Eagle II Mod for DCS World (Updated)
The F-15EX is the latest development of the F-15E Strike Eagle. It features modernized avionics, radar, weapons systems, and new engines packed inside a 20,000 flight hour airframe. Fly-by-wire flight controls enable payloads on stations 1 and 9 (previously unused), allowing the F-15EX to carry up to 12 air to air missiles, though AMBER racks could theoretically increase this to 20.
Unfortunately I can only include one livery with this mod due to file size limitations. The others are available on the User Files as well as in a separate livery pack here:
https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/n5qtz5axtph4xo5yautzo/F-15EX-Fictional-ANG-Liveries_123_194.7z?rlkey=fruyzwjm9580b9e1tffcog5z8&dl=0
Version 2.0 comes with the custom cockpit from @musolo, as well as the AIM-260A JATM and support for currenthill's AIM-174B missile mod. It is otherwise very similar to the previous release Version 1.8.7.
Installation: Just extract the .7z file and drop it into Saved Games/DCS/mods/aircraft (or Saved Games/DCS.openbeta/mods/aircraft depending on which version you have). This mod has been tested with DCS 2.9 as of 11/10/22.

View File [Fictional] McDonnell Douglas F-4M USAFE
McDonnell Douglas F-4M (USAF) Phantom for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2:Europe
This is a simple mod of the stock F-4M_75 to give a fictional USAFE Phantom F-4M with markings for all three squadrons of the 48th Tactical Fighter Wing based at RAF Lakenheath during the mid 1970's.
BACKSTORY
During late 1966 with the USA getting more and more embroiled in the Vietnam war it was decided to re-equip several USAFE units with the British licence-built F-4M so as to release older tactical aircraft such as the F-100D and F-105D for Vietnam where attrition was now a very serious issue.
McDonnell Douglas had already brought together a UK sub-contracting team consisting of BAC, Hawker Siddeley, Rolls-Royce (for the Spey turbofan engines) and Shorts with final assembly and flight testing being carried out at St. Louis but, with one eye on the European market, McDonnell Douglas moved final assembly to Brough (North Humberside) with flight testing at Holme on Spalding Moor. This decision came a bit late for the Royal Navy whose F-4K aircraft continued to be assembled and flight tested in the USA but all F-4M's were produced in the UK with all odd production numbers being allocated to the RAF and all even numbers to the USAFE with Lakenheath and Bitburg becoming the first USAFE wings to re-equip with the type.
Entering service with the 48th Tactical Fighter Wing based at RAF Lakenheath in England in 1970 the F-4M's received a modest upgrade during 1973-1974 to emerge with the Marconi ARI18228 RWR mounted on the fintip and also gained 'slimer' formation-keeping strip lights. The USAF F-4M's had a relatively long career with USAFE and were eventually replaced by F-15E's during 1990 and just missed out on participation in Operation Desert Shield and Desert Storm.
INSTRUCTIONS
1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the F-4M_74 folder into your Aircraft folder.
2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the F-4M_74 folder into your Decals folder.
That's it!
CREDITS
As always, thanks to Third Wire for a great little game/sim.
And, finally, thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.
