    Hawker Hunter FGA.9 - No.20 and No. 28 Squadrons, RAF Far East Air Force, 1963-1966 The growing threat to Thailand, Cambodia and South Vietnam from nearby Communist states saw the deployment of the Hawker Hunter FGA.9's of No. 20 Squadron to the Far East Air Force in September 1961 followed by No.28 Squadron in July 1962. The Borneo Confrontation of 1963 saw this ground-attack wing deployed to Kuching and Labuan to commence offensive operations against Indonesian forces seeking to infiltrate across the Malaysia/Indonesia border on the island of Borneo. The Commander of the Far East Air Force, Air Marshal Sir Hector McGregor, ordered the re-introduction of the wartime 'SEAC' markings to avoid any potential confusion with the Indonesian Air Force's red and white national markings. Both squadrons were successful in helping to repel the border incursions by the Indonesians, despite the difficult terrain, and stayed in theatre until the Borneo Confrontation was declared over in August 1966 eventually departing in January 1967 when No.28 Squadron was disbanded and No.20 Squadron returned to Tengah.

    View File Hawker Hunter FGA.9 - RAF Far East Air Force Hawker Hunter FGA.9 - RAF Far East Air Force This is a simple mod of the stock Third Wire Hunter FGA.9 to place it in service with the RAF's Far East Air Force in the 1961-1970 timeline. That really did happen but not with the Hunter wearing 'SEAC' national markings! New decals are included including 26 new tail serials and 26 new underwing serials. BACKSTORY The growing threat to Thailand, Cambodia and South Vietnam from nearby Communist states saw the deployment of the Hawker Hunter FGA.9's of No. 20 Squadron to the Far East Air Force in September 1961 followed by No.28 Squadron in July 1962. The Borneo Confrontation of 1963 saw this ground-attack wing deployed to Kuching and Labuan to commence offensive operations against Indonesian forces seeking to infiltrate across the Malaysia/Indonesia border on the island of Borneo.

INSTRUCTIONS 1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the HunterFGA9S folder into your Aircraft folder. 2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the HunterFGA9S folder into your Decals folder. It goes without saying that you'll need the Third Wire Hunter FGA.9 from 'Wings Over Europe' for this to work but if you have 'Wings Over Israel' you can use a substitute 'stock' cockpit as the aircraft LOD's are in that game. The folder designation FGA.9S is just to avoid conflict with the stock FGA.9 aircraft in 'Wings Over Europe'. CREDITS Thanks to TK for a great little game/sim. And thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community. Regards Spinners Version 1 - 18/03/18 Submitter Spinners Submitted 03/18/2018 Category Fictional Aircraft, Experimental and UAV's

    ok, i gotta ask: why? iirc, there was talk of putting a non afterburning F404 in some Scooters for the Adversary roles, and it would have taken them a little past M1 because of thrust to weight ratio. but IRL intakes are not set up for much past that, and it would run out of gas right about the time it hit top speed, or would hit that speed with enough gas bags to fly awhile the data could be edited, but as one of the historical purists here, Ed Heinemann didnt make a naval ME163.

    Does anyone else read the thread title "Sukhois" as "Sukhosis" like psychosis but with Sukhoi instead of psycho in it? This might just be my dyslexia but from time to time I have to look twice when I see the thread title. Also, beautiful cockpit guys. I am looking forward to flying from it.

    The DACM loadouts are coming along... Taking a breather while everyone else mixes it up... Very impressive camo job on this bird, no wonder the Tomcat pilot never saw him until it was too late...

    Another plane for the Spanish Civil War, the Heinkel He.51 was used by Nationalist forces as a fighter, escort, interceptor and ground attack plane. The plane itself and cockpit are mostly finished. I'm still working on skins and the LODs.
