    Operation Desert Storm Skinpack and Updates for B-52G_89 This Mod will add ODS skins for the B-52G_89 found here some weapon, ini, effects and sound edits are also included to enhance the operation of this classic bomber Included: Updated and reskinned B-52G_89, Decal set that puts multiple camoflages on each skin and at least a dozen Historical aircraft with Unit markings and nose art, updated weapons common to that version of the aircraft, a fake gunpod pylon for use with dual MERs, and updated sounds and effects. Historical Notes: Although you can fly em all, the only accurate skin to fly within ODS would be the Jeddah skin. The others flew from off of the various Iraq terrains available. Bomb missions markings not included as these are set to represent the beginning of the campaign. While many other weapons can be carried, the improved ones are the ones carried during Desert Storm, and strategic weapons (nukes) While ALCM pylon is missing (more below), it only affects the Senior Surprise mission from Barksdale AFB (16-17 Jan 1991). The other Bomb Wings did not employ CALCMs Installation: unzip. put all folders EXCEPT Templates into desired mod folder. Allow overwrites as needed. Known Issues: While there is currently a new Hound Dog pylon selectable in the download menu, there is not an ALCM pylon. While some sources state that the CALCMs were carried on the stub pylons, I find that not too likely.but it is how it is carried in game at this time. Either I will learn Blender and create one in the future, or a volunteer would be welcomed to create one (likely a faster route). But at time of initial release (24/12/2018) the cruise missiles are carried on the stubs.

    Korea MiG-Alley 1.0 ***************************************************** This terrain is written for SF2. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I. Short description: 2013, five years ago i decided to start work on a Korea terrain, especially for Korea War. As usual for me i wanted to creat a more or less 100% scaled terrain, in contrast to the 66% scales which the TerrainEditor is usually made for us. It was a slow progress work. Now, five years later, i release the first version of Korea MiG-Alley terrain. Korea MiG-Alley terrain does not cover entire korean peninsula. It is focused on the so called MiG-Alley. The MiG-Alley was an area in north west Korea which was controlled and patroled by MiG-15 planes, which were based on airfields in China. The chinese airbases were out of "reach" for the UN Air Forces. Out of reach meant, it was not allowed to bomb or straff this bases. MiG-Alley terrain is made for simulating the air warfare of the Air Forces, not the Navy, during the Korea War from 1949 to 1953. The terrains timeframe is set from 1949 to 1955. Active airfields you will find in China and in South Korea. Airfields in North Korea are in building stage, what means they cant be used by the red side. But they are targets for the blue guys. You will find a lot of ground targets in the MiG-Alley. Bridges, factories, railway stations etc. All are heavily defended by Flak artillery. You will find some ship traffic along the west coast and some truck convois in the MiG-Alley. There are also targets of opportunities, like fuel depots consists of fuel barrels. If you find one, bomb it! ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ II. INSTALLATION: Unzip all files into your saved game mod folder ...ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 . To run this terrain properly you need to link it to an terrains CAT file. From stock the terrain is prepared to link with SF2 Israel If you dont have SF2I you must open the file KoreaMiGAlley.ini with Windows notepad editor. Look for the lines: CatFile=..\IsraelME\IsraelME.cat //CatFile=..\GermanyCE\GermanyCE.cat //CatFile=..\VIETNAMSEA\VietnamSEA.cat //CatFile=..\Desert\Desert.cat Add // in front of CatFile=..\IsraelME\IsraelME.cat to switch ot off. Then remove // at one of the other lines. Which you should remove depends on which SF2 game you have installed. Save it. Thats it. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ III. Credits. The TOD's, what means the trees and autogenerated houses on the map, are mostly taken from various tilesets made by Stary. The dam files were made by Swambast. The basic files for the taxiways, parking areas and quais are made by ErikGen. I cant remember who gave me the ponton bridges, the airfield tower and the locomotive files. Please contact me, that i can give you the proper credit. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ IV. This Terrain is Freeware. Commercial use is not allowed. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ V. For remarks, comments, bugs, etc please use CombatAce forum or send me a PM. Hope you enjoy it.

    The problem with using the Hybrids is, their mind tends to wander off, and causes your computer to jump beyond the Red Line, getting Lost in Space

    I found an interesting channel on YouTube and thought I would share some of the videos. I have heard about some of these before but I still learned some details that I was unaware of. Note: The Intro can be a bit loud so beware headphone users. The story of the S.S. Stephen Hopkins. The History of the First Combat Helicopter Rescue. Battle of the Bulge: Duel at St. Vith, Belgium Note: He makes a slight range error in the excitement of telling this story. The range should be 25 Yards = 75 feet.

    B-52G/H Mega Era Package by Dels via wpnssgt Update for 14 Jan 2012 1. Changed hanger/loading screens to jpgs. 2. Changed loadout pic to a clear background tga. 3. All LOD's updated to fix a spoiler problem. 4. H model 20mm has more detail. 5. Hanger screens in skins folder. 6. Inside canopy color changed to a yellow gold for better visibility. 1. Updated EVS screen 2. Each year has a specific loadout. 3. The years in which each plane is represented marks an operational era it flew under, or modification. 4. More hangar and loading screens on some. 5. Added the following units, or modified some based on others work. (17 skins total) 93 BW, Castle AFB, California 416 BW, Griffiss AFB, NY (modified from JSF Aggies work) 2 BW, 20 BS and 93 BS, Barksdale AFB, LA 449 BW, Kincheloe AFB, MI 410 BW, K.I. Sawyer AFB, MI Skins by Pappy, X Ray, JSF Aggie and ST0RM Loadouts by X Ray and Moonjumper Decals, testing, ini edits from hell, etc by Dave (USAFMTL), and X Ray Sounds by spillone. Weapons by lindr2, FastCargo and Erikgen Cockpits by Dels Well here is a better explanation of my breakdown logic. B-52G_59 and the B-52H_61: The years they came into service and were all nuke and Houndog carriers. So for you SAC fans this is the cold warrior at its best. B-52G_72: This version went to Vietnam for Linebacker with the ability to carry only 27 bombs and very inferior ECM. B-52H_75: While the G was being used for a conventional role, the H were still all nuke aircraft. (it could carry 27 iron bombs if needed) This one represents the year it got the EVS, new ECM and its carries gravity nukes and SRAM's. B-52G_77: Again with the H is received the upgraded ECM, EVS and kept its ability to carry iron in the bay and is set up for a its nuclear missions as well. B-52H_88: While the G was getting more of the conventional role, in 1988 the H soldiered on being an all nuke bomber. In this year we see it in its new paint and carrying an all AGM-86B ALCM loadouts. B-52G_82: This is the year the G went operational with the AGM-86B ALCM B-52H_93: New paint, upgraded ECM and no gun. This one also had the ability to fire the AGM-142 Have Nap. Note: In the loadout screen it will say it is empty but the black dots next to it will be full. That means they are loaded but there is some glitch in the sim preventing it from showing up in the loadout screen because of the data link pod. It does work though once you are in the sim. B-52G_89: Here is then it picked up a serious conventional mission with the ability to carry iron on the wing pylons as well. This one also received the new paint scheme and made carpet bombing famous during Desert Storm. B-52H_03: The current version with upgraded ECM, plus the ability to carry the LITENING pod, all sorts of guided weapons from JDAM's, to LGB's, to JSOW's. Also with the Combat Track II moving map display in the cockpit. Thank you each and everyone of you guys for your help and guidance. Dave USAFMTL

    View File Meteors Over Israel. SF2. Meteors Over Israel Bunch of meteors for SF2. For Isreal Air Force to be more specific. Basic modding skills are required to run this mod. (copy/paste, mod folder structure etc.) Install: Copy paste specific folders into a correct destination. Fake pilot is required to run this mod. Also, Thirdwire Meteor cockpit is required from the original game. Fuel tanks- not to be afraid. Overwrite or just leave it. 100 gal tank is original TW tank. You can overwrite or just simply do not copy. 175 gal tank also. Tanks are just ini files. Mod use tanks that are part of aircraft lod. This is a highly modified Veltro2k model uploaded on CA somewhere in 2016 by paulopanz. Some time ago few guys decided (because they have a chance to do so) to rework this pretty aircraft. So, first of all, thank you Veltro2k. Although. There is just very few original parts of an old model. Most of it was remodeled. Added bits here and there. We changed mapping and we made new skins...and a lot of new stuff. You will see. That is part of a story... I took chance on modding this aircraft more and created some other versions. In this pack, you will find a few models available. F.8 FR.9 NF.13 T.7 T.7.5 Skins covering all units from IAF service. All skins are in 4096x4096 format. You can easily resize to needed resolution. better to downsize than rescale to higher res. In case someone will have some plans around FR.9 version - this is a specific model with added cameras via decals because only two Israeli FR.9 were recon capable. I have FR.9 with glass nose also..to be uploaded... Credits. Veltro2k - the original model Me - model rework and some other mambo jumbo like skins decals, hangars 76.IAP-Blackbird - also T model re-working. Charles - original FM from original T.7 upload. Seat - all credits o creator - unfortunately I don't remember who made this seat. Pilots - I have no idea / don't remember who did it. All credit to him/her. - one of my favorites figures in a game - I've added this to correspond with the data file. Weapons RP-3 rockets from Ravenclaw. And yes the pack is huge. Hope I did screw something here.... Have fun Report bugs. Expect the unexpected Jarek Hereda THIS MODEL IS ONLY TO BE DISTRIBUTED AS FREEWARE AND IN NO OTHER CIRCUMSTANCE SHALL IT BE USED, EVEN IN PART OF ANYTHING THAT IS PAYWARE. IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE COMBAT ACE MODDERS AGREEMENT Submitter yakarov79 Submitted 09/26/2018 Category Meteor

    I've just uploaded a new 3rd version of a file. (In fact it is 2nd version..but 2nd ver. was never released) Now BM and SM maps added. Small changes here and there. Reworked cockpit. Read info on the download page. If you have already an old version all aircraft folders must be deleted. After testing with overwrite some errors occurred. Decals/ weapons etc..are all fine. Aircraft must be replaced. I've done a similar job to other Stallions / Jolly Giants so I will upload them soon also. kind regards.

    Some nights I just dream I could buy the source code for this program and pay to keep developing it. It's a great, great air combat & strategy game. Very grateful for the CombatAce.com community building on it, keeping the game relevant & timely & lively.
