    Proposed F-4E(F) Air Superiority Fighter (Luftwaffe) addon for the F-4F Pack by ravenclaw_007 and team. Based on the official McDonnell Douglas report/ sales pitch dated September 1970 detailing the specifications for the proposed F-4E(F) Air Superiority Fighter for the West German Luftwaffe: Included: - F-4E(F) Gameplay notes: - Due to its lower empty weight this aircraft is slightly faster, more maneuverable, has quicker acceleration and a lower stalling speed than a standard statted or hard wing F-4E. - It has a slightly lower (according to McDonnell's specifications,) stalling speed than the F-4F. - The radar (APG-120) is the same model as on the F-8E Crusader so has a lower performance than the radar on the F-4E/F with no AIM-7 capability. Cockpit radar display and radar range lights have been changed match the APG-120 radar. - Rear cockpit is empty with no WSO or controls etc. If you read the McDonnell report the ability to fit the cockpit controls, displays and ejection seat was to be retained if required. So the glass would not have been faired over etc. Animation / Function - Canopy - Hook - Gun Vent ______________ automatic when gun is fired or as soon as the landing gear is deployed - Brake Chute____________ works with the Air Brake below 150kts NOTE: You MUST have the F-4F pack installed for this to work: Hangar and Loading screens are in 1920 x 1080 Installation: - Drop all files into your mod folder the way they are setup in this pack and overwrite if ask to - If you are unsure about the way how mods are installed, check the knowledge base at CombatAce! Credits for F-4F Pack: - original model by TW , BPAO , Crab_02 - cockpits from TW - Testpilots , Fanatic Modder , Soulfreak , Crusader - new updated model , textures and weapons by ravenclaw_007

    Están mal las matriculas, los DA tenían las matriculas I-001, I-002, I-020 y I-021...los Dagger B eran C-425, C-426, C-438 y C-439 The registrations are wrong, the DA had registration I-001, I-002, I-020 and I-021, Dagger B had C-425, C-426, C-438 and C-439

    Feb 28th, 1994 On this day in history the first ever active combat in NATO's history took place southwest of Banja Luka in Bosnia and Herzegovina when six Serbian Air Force light attack jets were engaged by USAF F-16C's of the 526th TFS. Captain Robert Gordon "Wilbur" Wright and Captain Stephen L. "Yogi" Allen immediately destroyed four aircraft between them with an additional aircraft later reported by the Serb's as destroyed after being hit by a missile explosion while trying to escape in low-level flight. Feb 28th is also my daughter's birthday and indeed she was born in 1994 which is probably why I don't actually remember this air combat action.

    KJakker, Those files did the trick. I now have smoke. I checked some of my other installs and found the smoke markers didn't work in them either. Now they're smoking. Thanks for your help. Geary

    F-4E_75_AHUD (Austere HUD) mod The real Austere HUD modification has been tested on F-4E 68-0304 during 1974-76. The goal was to have a better sight display, primarily for air to air combat. Further modifications were made to the radar for a quicker boresight lock-on and new dogfight scan modes. The Austere HUD modification remained a F-4E test and didnt went into production aircraft or upgrades. Ive re-created the Austere HUD, using the TW F-4E_75 (required for the mod to work). Ive used the Wraparound desert skin for stock F-4E by amariani http://combatace.com/files/file/12057-wraparound-desert-skin-for-stock-f-4e/ for a quick "make it fly" setup (we dont have a proper Edwards Test Unit white with red trimmings skin) The real Austere HUD was a test setup, so its no problem to add/remove readouts to the HUD modes to ones personal liking.

    RAF and RSAF Tornado GR.1. version 1.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------ Standart RAF and Saudi strike version. Feb 24th 2019. Version 1.1 notes: ------------------------------------------------------ New strike GR.1 plane is v.1.1, however it's 1st release (just for order, comparing to older planes). In TUTORIALS folder you will find: - how to use bombing radar - baffmeister's flight model notes - L I S T O F W E A P O N S I N P A C K !

CAUTION !!!! -------------------- Base LOD is using specular maps. They can really drop fps on slower GPUs [like my GTX 460 ;-)]. If you have this problem, there is archive of LOD without them in plane folder called : xxx faster_no_specular_LOD Unpack and use this one. CAUTION 2: ------------------- 3 aircrafts in this pack: - RAF GR.1 batch 2 with mk.101 engines - later RAF GR.1 with Mk.103 engines - Saudi GR.1 Keys: -------- SHIFT+1 -> canopy open SHIFT+2 -> fuel probe SHIFT+3 -> weapon operator cockpit So, the most important part ...

    Just a little too pricey for me, but for some of the CA high-rollers, the link below takes you to a website advertising "possibly the last unrestored P-51D" (former Guatemalan AF) along with many spares including twenty Merlin powerplants. Lots of detailed pix of aircraft and spares: https://www.platinumfighters.com/p-51d-n38227

    It's been some months now, but I'm fairly certain I was using that LOD-Viewer to try and determine which component was the source of the toggle switches. With the idea of doing exactly what you sugggest, disabling them in the cockpit.ini. Despite giving it a good college try, I couldn't find the source component.

    @Geary Just to check, you are putting things into the mods folder at "C:\Users\"UserName"\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2" and not the main folder at "C:\Program Files (x86)\ThirdWire\Strike Fighters 2" correct? I have attached my effects folder with an adjusted MissileObject.ini file. Backup your effects folder and give mine a try. My Effects folder.7z Also, I have attached some smoke rockets for you to test. Smoke Rockets.7z

    I have moved over the save games fe2 from my old install that I saved while running Windows 7 in the Windows 10 save games /FE2 folder and works just great, thank you again for your help. For anyone reading this and are contemplating moving to Windows 10 in my opinion it is better than my old Windows 7 and I never thought I would say that.

    You have to set the path to your SF2-directory in Extras->Settings. Otherwise it doesn't know, where to find the LODs.

    In real life they get dirty very fast, but it can be true for a brand new airplane out of the factory.

    Outstanding! The whole download is a bit bloated though with 55 skins all with 4096 x 4096 bitmaps and even 4096 x 4096 specular maps (even when all black) but it's a lovely 3D model and skinned with love!

    My F-4 throttle handles and associated panels arrived. They are in pretty good condition. There were some buttons on the left throttle whose function I couldn't identify. After searching the internet, I found a reference from a book I have read that revealed the functions of the unidentified buttons. From Ed Rasimus' "Palace Cobra: A Fighter Pilot in the Vietnam War", "... and simultaneously reach over the front of the inboard throttle to hit the dogfight button on the front that will switch the radar to five-mile scope and boresight. All I'll have to do is put the gun sight on the MiG and the radar will feed the AIM-7 a lock-on. If I need the gun, a flip of the tiny switch on the outboard throttle with the pinky on my left hand will give me the Vulcan." So in the early 1970's, F-4s were already modified to have a basic HOTAS: a button to engage boresight radar mode and a switch to enable the gun. Not too much later, the famous 556 mod would give the F-4E an outboard throttle grip pinky switch to select guns / AIM-9 / AIM-7. As the DCS World F-4E will be a late ARN-101 version, it will probably reflect the 556 mod or better. I may need to modify my authentic throttle grips to account for later revisions of their switch configuration.

    Think I've got it - its a sort of extra-curricular, aeronautical engineer-hangar mechanic-flightsim game. Or if your designing terrains of campaigns, a sort of God mode strategy-historian-flightsim game

    Over the years I've heard rumors that the reason there were so many MiG-17's is because they reproduce through mitosis. Here's a picture of the process:
