CROTALE mod by GKABS 1) Historical background The Development of the Crotale Surface-to-Air Missile system began in 1964. The Crotale is a very short range SAM system (Sol-Air à Très Courte Portée or SATCP). It was said that South Africa paid 85% (France: 15%) of the first step development costs of this SAM System. The Crotale was named "Cactus" for South Africa. Thomson-CSF for the radar and the electronics, and Matra (Engine division) for the R440 missile were the two prime contractors. South Africa received the first systems in 1971. In 1971 France placed the first order for operational tests: 1 Acquisition Unit and 2 Firing Units. The Armée de l'Air bought this SAM system in order to protect their airfields. The Crotale in this first opérational version (Crotale 1000) was above all engaged for the Egypt-Libya and Angola wars in the 1980s. Further developments were launched for several customers among the 15 ones which ordered this system. 2) Installation in your Strike Fighters 2 installation(s) There are 2 options : - The "Sand" version in order to put in any "Desert" type SF2 install, - The "Green" version for any "European" type SF2 install. So you'll find them into 2 separated packs ready to play :) If you need any further help please read the Knowledge Base at: https://combatace.com/forums/forum/268-thirdwire-strike-fighters-2-series-knowledge-base/ 3) Credits - Coupi for suggesting the model, document, creating the data files, and testing. From the bottom of my heart thanks. 4) LICENSE: You are allowed to use this model and everything included with it for personal non-profit use for Strike fighters 1 and 2. For use outside of this scope, you need to contact me for permission. gkabs@gkabs.net Software used: 3d Max 2009 UVLayout v2 Pro Substance Painter Adobe Photoshop If you need any assistance please contact me at gkabs@gkabs.net https://gkabs.net

SF2 MiG-23 & MiG-27 Floggers - Part 2 This mod supplies a collection of MiG-23 & MiG-27 Floggers, created by ArmourDave and The Mirage Factory, and heavily modded by Lindr2 for SFP1. (These are not mods of the 3rdWire Floggers supplied in the SF2 titles.) All have been converted and updated to SF2 standards. Also included with this mod are all the weapons, sounds, pilots, and seats that you will need to install and use any of the aircraft supplied with this mod. This mod consists of three parts: Part 1: 1st Generation MiG-23s (MiG-23S, Mig-23M, MiG-23ME, MiG-23MF, MiG-23MF, MiG-23UB) Part 2: 2nd Generation MiG-23s (MiG-23ML, MiG-23MLA, MiG-23MLAE, MiG-23P, MiG-23PD, MiG-23-98, MiG-23UM) Part 3: Ground Attack MiG-23s (MiG-23B, MiG-23BN) & MiG-27s (MiG-27, MiG-27D, MiG-27K, MiG-27M, MiG-27ML) Each of the three parts includes all the decals, pilots, sounds, effects that you will need for the aircraft in that part. This is the second part. The WEAPONS are contained ONLY IN THIS PART -- THE 2ND PART. These aircraft can be used in SF2, SF2E, SF2V, or SF2I. To install and use them, you should ensure that your SF2 installation is patched to at least the Dec2009 patch level. See below for installation instructions. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Installation ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Please note that installation of these aircraft will overwrite & replace the default 3rdWire versions included in the various SF2 titles. I recommend that you first REMOVE the 3rdWire MiG-23 and MiG-27 versions - even if you haven't modded them -- before installing these alternate versions. To install, simply drag the following folders to your SF2 Mods Folder (NOT the folder that the game installs to): \Effects \Flight \Objects \Sounds By default your Mod Folder should be located here: Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\[username]\My Documents\ThirdWire\[Game]\ Windows Vista: \Users\[username]\Saved Games\ThirdWire\[Game]\ Windows 7: \Users\[username]\Saved Games\ThirdWire\[Game]\ ...where [username] is the account you log into within Windows and [Game] is the name of the particular game mod folder that you're moving the files to. If the aircraft are not showing up in your Single Mission Aircraft menu, then you didn't install all the bits correctly. And remember, the WEAPONS are contained ONLY IN THE 2ND PART, which means that you MUST DOWNLOAD THE 2ND PART TO GET THE WEAPONS. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Aircraft & Nations Included ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The following aircraft are included in the three parts of this mod: Part 1: 1st Generation MiG-23s - MiG-23S Flogger-A (Early) - MiG-23S Flogger-A - MiG-23SM Flogger-A (obr.71) - MiG-23M Flogger-B (Ser. 1) - MiG-23M Flogger-B (Ser. 23) - MiG-23ME Flogger-B - MiG-23MF Flogger-B - MiG-23MF Flogger-B (Late) - MiG-23MF Rakshak - MiG-23MS Flogger-E - MiG-23UB Flogger-C (Early) - MiG-23UB Flogger-C Part 2: 2nd Generation MiG-23s - MiG-23ML Flogger-G (Early) - MiG-23ML Flogger-G - MiG-23MLA Flogger-G - MiG-23MLAE-A Flogger-G (32-22) - MiG-23MLAE-B Flogger-G - MiG-23MLD Flogger-K - MiG-23P Flogger-G - MiG-23PD Flogger-G - MiG-23UM Flogger-C - MiG-23-98 Flogger-K Part 3: Ground Attack MiG-23s & MiG-27s - MiG-23B Flogger-F (Early) - MiG-23B Flogger-F - MiG-23BN Flogger-H - MiG-23BN Flogger-H (Egypt) - MiG-23BN Flogger-H (Iraq) - MiG-23BN Vijay - MiG-27 Flogger-D - MiG-27D Flogger-J - MiG-27K Flogger-J2 (Early) - MiG-27K Flogger-J2 - MiG-27M Flogger-J - MiG-27ML Bahadur The following nations are represented: USSR Angola Bulgaria Ethiopia Czechoslovakia Egypt East Germany Iraq Hungary Libya Poland Syria Romania India Ukraine Sri Lanka Cuba Ivory Coast North Korea For more information on the differences between these various different versions, see the documentation included in \_OriginalReadMes. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A Few Notes About This Mod ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Those familiar with Lindr2's Flogger packages for SFP1 will rightly recognize that this updated mod builds on his earlier efforts. Although I have largely followed Lindr2's lead in assembling this package, there are some noteworthy differences between his SFP1 collections and this one: 1) Different Engine Sounds & Afterburner TGAs I have used different engine sounds and afterburner TGAs to give the various engines used by different models distinct sounds and appearances. 2) NATO Code Names The aircraft names do include the NATO code names, whereas Lindr2's SFP1 versions did not use them at all. Also, the Air-to-Air weapons use both NATO and Soviet names/designations (e.g., "R-73 AA-11 Archer"). 3) Wider range of Skins/Nations You will find a wider range of skins used to represent more nations, drawing on the various one-off skins that have been released by other modders. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Credits & Acknowledgements ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This package largely consists of work done by others and released previously in other packages. All I did was assemble the package, update the bits to SF2 standards, and make minor adjustments and tweaks here and there (discussed above). Rafael & BPAo ..................................

This mod makes the stock A-1H/J's from SF2V flyable using a cockpit created by me. It also incorporates all the skins The Wrench has released for the Skyraider. Read the readme.txt for full details and credits etc. Dels
