SF2 Westland Whirlwind HAR Upgrade Pack 4/19/2021 -For SF2 =ONLY= (Full 4/5 Merged Reccomended) **NOTE: this is for the British built versions -0NLY-!!** This is major upgrade of the Westland Whirlwind (piston powered) as released by Strahi. Please be advised, if you have the original download, you will unfortunately have to delete it from your mods folder(s). THIS version is highly modified, with many additional items. If left as "drag & drop" over the original, there will be conflicts that might be unresolvable. Thus, the need for complete removal of the original. This has been approved by Strahi, to whom I extend great thanks!! The following services/units are covered. The first listing is the name of the skin folder itself. The rest is the description you will see on the skin selection dropdown on the Loadout Screen: Royal Air Force: RAF1 - No.22 Sqdn, 55-62, overall yellow RAF2 - No.28 Sqdn, ?? date, Eurocamo* RAF3 - No.110 Sqdn, 1954, Kuala Lampur* JHU - Joint Helicopter Unit, HMS Ocean, Suez, 1956 Royal Navy: RN - 848 NAS, DGNB overall, early 50s RN2 - Ship's Flight, HMS Protector, 55-65, Antarctic Patrol RN3 - 848 NAS, HMS Bulwark, 1960s RN4 - 781 NAS, RNAS Yeovilton (Green Parrot) Suez - 848 NAS, HMS Albion, Suez 56 JRV: YU - Soko Whirlwind, Yugoslavian Air Force, 1961 *= be advised, these units MAY have had the later, turbine power marks. It's also possible some of those listed above, while still having serving piston-powered Whirlwinds, would have also recieved turbine power aircraft. The SF2 'date switch' is =NOT= used on any of the skins. I felt it would cause too many issues and confusions. Many painted on insignia and service markings remain as such. This is due to the minimal amount of meshes used to build the aircraft. All new serial number decals have been made for all included versions (up to 26 each). As is to be expected, while all are correct for the aircraft & services depicted, they are 'generic' in nature. When a unit's or service's serials HAVE been found, you'll see the star (*) in the number list dropdown. Decal randomization is TRUE. When possible, the RAF & RN squadron badges are used at the "patch" for viewing on the Loadout Screen On the aircraft selection drop down list, you'll see: Whirlwind HAR/HC (st) The (st) is for Strahi, and will diferentiate this Whirlwind for any others that may or may not exist. As is always recommended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. PLEASE read them, before installing!!! Happy Landings! Wrench Kevin Stein EDIT: added missing Decals folders!! Sorry people!!

Hi! Special thanks to Florian who did the first mod of su-25 for SF2. All data files been taken from there. Also credits goes to Stary and Comrade. While making this mode, i used some files made by them. This model comes from a freeware source, and is used in several other games. Only some small details like drag chute, animation etc are done by me. And thanks to Thirdwire for this sim. THIS IS A FREEWARE. COMMERCIAL USE IS NOT ALLOWED! Enjoy!

Eagle114th's SF2 Menu (UI) Expansion v1.2 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a second version of SF2 UI Expansion mod. If you face any bugs or problems, please inform me. The purpose of this mod is to expand / improve the SF2 UI. In the first version, it does two things: 1) Change the aircraft list when displaying the list. Aircraft list are sorted by nation first. There are three versions: a. Version #1: Nations’ multi-branches are combined, so you’ll see (USN / USMC) A-4s or (RN / RAF) F-4Ks as an example. If aircraft have skins for a multi-nations, it will have ‘>>’ at end of aircraft name. b. Version #2: There are both symbol ‘>’ and ‘>>’. For any aircraft that is used by multi-branches, will use ‘>’, while any aircraft with skins for a multi nations will have ‘>>’ at the end of name. c. Version #3: Same as version 2 with simplified year tag. Instead of (19XX), it will show as ‘XX. 2) RWR and RADAR being displayed on the screen, there are 4 versions: a. Version #1: RWR + RADAR upper right corner b. Version #2: RWR + RADAR upper left corner c. Version #3: RWR (upper left corner) + RADAR (upper right corner) d. Version #4: RADAR (upper left corner) + RWR (upper right corner) Plans for next version: - New menu + GUI (WIP) - Make smaller version of RWR + RADAR - If time permits, will work on ordinance list, so they will be sorted by type of ordinance before the name. The feedback are always appreciated! ENJOY! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INSTALLATION: Note: This mod is covers all aircraft in SF2 with all expansion pack and DLCs.

Royal Canadian Air Force: No.5 (Helicopter) Operational Training Unit Copy/Paste the /Objects folder DIRECTLY into the SF2 game install of choice's /Objects folder. It's already divided into the /Aircraft and /Decals sub-folders. ----------------------------- Credits : Strahi & his team for bringing us this, my favorite early helicopter!! a billion sites around the net Kesselbrut for the cockpit Florian for the destroyed model ??? for the sound Wrench for the upgraded pack -------------------------------------------- Legal : This is freeware, it =CAN= be redistrubuted, but =NOT= posted on other sites even if the original readmes and all other pieces of the package remain intact. The names of all contributors, modders, suppliers, etc =MUST= be listed in any new readmes.

This aircraft mod represents Mikoyan-Gurevich's Ye-8 experimental fighter and its fictional updated "M" variant. There are slight variations compared to the actual prototype and the pits are pure fictional as there are no pictures that show how that looked in its original form, so its a mix of various systems used or developed in that time frame that the aircraft was developed. This package comes with 3 skin set for each variant, with decals for Soviet aircraft, since birds for LSK and Czechoslovakia use stock decals. This model is meant for SF2 games only, and SF2 Europe is required as some of the skins use stock decal numbers. Install is the regular dropping the contents in their respective places. Please note: The model might gets heavy on FPS in large formations on weaker machines, so if required, either resize skin files or use lower lod "_nd" as lod1. New weapons are provided - some type specific - beside these the model uses the general Soviet weapons. Be aware - In the 1970's and later when AA-8 can be selected, manually double loadout of these can happen. Make sure to read the manual included with the package. -------------------------------------------------------- Creators of these Aircraft mods as members of CombatAce site: Aircraft 3d work: Logan4 Cockpit 3d work: Logan4 Aircraft FM: Gepard, Cliff7600, Logan4 Aircraft avionics: Cliff7600, Logan4 Skin files and decals: Gepard, Logan4 Cockpit files: Logan4, Cliff7600 There are certain texture sections that were borrowed from the Su-17 project which were originally created by Stary Thanks for 76.IAP-Blackbird for the original KS-3 seat, a modified version of it used in the cockpit file.

It was built by the Black Sea Shipyard, the sole manufacturer of Soviet aircraft carriers, in Nikolayev within the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic (SSR). The initial name of the ship was Riga; it was launched as Leonid Brezhnev, embarked on sea trials as Tbilisi, and finally named Admiral Flota Sovetskogo Soyuza Kuznetsov after Admiral of the fleet of the Soviet Union Nikolay Gerasimovich Kuznetsov It was originally commissioned in the Soviet Navy, and was intended to be the lead ship of the two-ship Kuznetsov class. However, its sister ship Varyag was still incomplete when the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991.The second hull was eventually sold by Ukraine to the People's Republic of China, completed in Dalian and commissioned as Liaoning.
