The Mirage F1CE v2.9 is uploaded. This is an early version (1975-1991). The Late version will follow. The preview by Coupi :

I may or may not have given F-104s ECM pods and J79-GE-19 engines, but man, am I bullying the VPAF.

Early Seafires

In TV, 1991 looked like a training ... but it wasn't .

1991. Escorting the Bugs over Iraq...

Right now I'm thinking about which project to start next. I have 4 in mind. 1) Poland 2) Borderwar between China and Vietnam in 1979 3) version of Battle of Britain terrain for the 1960th or 70th 4) Diego Garcia Poland is an area with a lot of possible scenarios. World War 2 in 1939 and 1945, a possible Warsaw Pact invasion in 1981, a modern Suwalki Gap scenario, or a hypotetical what if the former german province Ostpreussen would have become the homestate of the jews: Israel in Central Europe. China and Vietnam Borderwar is an interesting scenario, because both sides have similar planes and weapons, so that only the skill of the player decides of an outcome of an air battle. I like the idea very much. "Modern" Battle of Britain terrain has two major possible scenarios. One: The Soviets have taken control over France and UK is in the same situation as 1940, but with other enemy. Two: A conflict between the European Community and UK, a scenario with its own flair, because blue vs blue and to be honest true friends the Brits and the French never were. Diego Garcia. Its an other naval map with one base on an island and carrier operations.

Same as 1st TV war ....

Just out for a little sightseeing.....

Some more work done but not a lot but it's coming along nicely. The texture will be fixed later on. ;)

The Battle of France that began on May 10th, 1940 gave Shah Mushani of Paran the perfect opportunity to invade the Kingdom of Dhimar without interference from France and the United Kingdom who were now massively distracted by the war on the western front. Despite this distraction, Shah Mushani waited until the Italian invasion of France on June 10th to launch an all-out attack on Dhimar led by his trusted General Halani Khomar. Supported by the Parani Army Air Force, Khomar's 1st and 2nd Armoured Divisions swept north and west reaching Najahafi on June 14th. Flying from the P2 forward airfield the Parani Army Air Force's Mitsubishi Ki-15P monoplane scout bombers were particularly effective, being considerably faster than the Dhimari Gloster Gladiator fighters and able to deliver their relatively light 250kg bomb load with great accuracy. It was only the introduction of ex-RAF Hawker Hurricane Mk.I's in Dhimari service in October 1940 that saw the Parani Ki-15P's require fighter escort.

I like the Vietnam/China border war. It would be interesting to see modern jets or old ones fighting. Diego Garcia would be really limited with one airbase and so on. You would be limited to striking one airbase, and just something to make like a Range map really in my opinion.

Warhawk!

View File Socotra terrain Socotra 1.0 ***************************************************** This terrain is written for SF2NA and SF2 Israel. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I. Short description: Socotra is a relativly big island on the shores of the Horn of Africa. It belongs to Yemen. Socotra is an ideal position to control all shipping lines between the Mediterranian Sea and the Indian Ocean. The power who controls Socotra can easily block the oil support from the Gulf to Western Europe. Socotra is the cork in the bottle neck, like Djibouti, the Suez Canal or Gibraltar. From mid 1960th to the fall of the Soviet Union, the soviets had an airbase on Socotra. In the 1980th on the base one regiment (squadron) of Su-24 bombers was active on Socotra. This terrain is made for a scenario that the Americans must defeat the soviet forces on Socotra island. They had to operate from carrier positions in the Gulf of Aden. For all guys who love to fly Air Force planes i made a temporary american airfield in Somalia. In the timeframe, where the soviets have no own carriers the single missions are focused on Socotra island. When the soviets field carriers the terrain is mostly focused on carrier vs carrier battles. So, if you prefer carrier vs ground battles you must choose missions before 1976. After that date you will have to fight Kiev carrier battle groups. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ II. INSTALLATION: To run this terrain you need SF2NorthAtlantic and SF2 Israel or SF2 Europe. Unzip all files into your saved game folder ...ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2XXXX Thats it. If you have SF2Israel installed you must do nothing more. If you miss SF2I and have SF2Europe you must open file Sokotra.ini with Notepad editor and look for the lines: CatFile=..\IsraelME\IsraelME.cat //CatFile=..\GermanyCE\GermanyCE.cat change the entry into: //CatFile=..\IsraelME\IsraelME.cat CatFile=..\GermanyCE\GermanyCE.cat save the file ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ III.

@Icarus999 Thanks to you! Not everyone bothers to say a simple thank you. I also want to stress out that this was all possible to teamwork and to all the support I got from awesome and talented modders. I found myself in some sort of lead role during the project, but without them the mod would have been a mere shadow of what it is now. My thanks go to @yakarov79, @guuruu, @GKABS, @Viper63a, @paulopanz, @daddyairplanes, @1977Frenchie, @dtmdragon, @Crusader, @baffmeister, @Jimbib, @ravenclaw_007, @Nyghtfall, @Veltro2k, @Dels, @RustyKurnass, @Stick. Other previous modders are also credited in the Thanks screen of the mod; many of them did contribute indirectly with their amazing past creations, still used to this day.

Vietnam China for me, with Poland coming in after that.

This is the only free A-4E-C Skyhawk for DCS world you can download it from this site COMMUNITY A-4E PROJECT After seeing this video I downloaded the mod and I will install it tomorrow and report back.

If I may place a vote, I like the idea of Diego Garcia. It offers a wealth of potential flashpoint scenarios for an extremely interesting part of the world. Especially for bomber operations.

count another vote for China/Vietnam. it would be really interesting to see say MiG-21s escorting A-37s although who would be red and who would be blue?

I am more a 1940s-era person, so the Poland terrain for both 1939 and 1945 looks very interesting.

I agree and I think Poland is an interesting one to see.

Great work Gepard. Enjoying this terrain very much.

View File Mirage F1CE (1975-1987) Mirage F1CE (1975-1987) This mod is dedicated to BPAO, nothing would have been possible without him. In June 1975, with tension growing with Morocco, Spain decided to strengthen its Air Force and bought 15 Mirage F1C that were allocated to Albacete AB. In mid-1976 there was still some tension with Morocco and Algerian and Libyan MiG-25 flights on the Mediterranean, which would lead the Spanish Air Force to purchase ten more Mirage F1C and two years later order 48 Mirage F1C and F1E. F1CE_Early specifics: - no 550, AIM-9 SW instead - R530, no S530F, CLB4 - no radio-altimeter - Seat Mk4 Covered units : Ala 14, 141° Escuadron. A big thank to all on Combatace and C6 forums that helped us solving issues we encountered. Any omission in credits is totally unwanted, if I forgot somebody, let me know, I will correct this. This addon is and will in all cases remain freeware. Released under CombatAce Fair-Use terms. Enjoy The Mirage F-1 Team. Submitter ludo.m54 Submitted 09/26/2017 Category Mirage F1

An unexpected Christmas present, thank Gepard! This is an interesting terrain for operations, very arid and open. I love the details like the earth berms around the US airfield, and the walled enclosures for many of the houses - obviously a lot of work has gone into this terrain.
