Royal Danish Air Force Thunderjets. Basic modding skills are required to run this mod. (copy/paste, mod folder structure, etc.) Install: Copy and paste specific folders into the correct destination. Mod requires new fuel tanks that are added to the mod - generally RF version uses new fuel tanks and recon wing tip pods. In the game under a prefix. KDF. * you will find F-84E , F-84G and RF-84G * Kongelige Danske Flyvevåbnet F-84E served very shortly for testing purposes, and F-84G ended active service in 1961. RF-84G was a European poor-man recon aircraft, using modified fuel tanks for a camera pod. Several countries used a similar concept for interim recon flight in the case of Denmark they were waiting for RF-84F. Two different recon pod setups are added, also counterbalance fuel tank and additional Fletcher fuel tanks. RF-84G - KA-F and KA-G never received 'RF mod' but served in 729 Esk FR flight, during these years. This is a very old model with some flaws....but as long as we do not have a new one I made new skins. All skins are in 4096x4096 format based on new templates. You can easily resize as needed. During service years, after maintenance, airframes were not always returned to the previous original squadron - resulting in a mess of squadron colors (until someone in the squadron repainted again) - but I believe I have the correct squadron colors for those years represented in a mod. All serial numbers are historically correct for specific squadrons/years of service in the Danish Air Force. Check weapon names in loadout.ini and sounds to match your files. Credits. Model - russoUK. Yours truly - mambo jumbo like skins, decals, Fletcher fuel tanks and recon pod mods, research... Who made this cockpit? Also russoUK? No animal was harmed during the creation of this mod. Only Italian coffee was used, mod may contain cookie crumbs and nuts. Weapons. I have added Ravenclaw's HVAR rockets as the data file is correct only for Ravenclaw's HVARs/ Have fun. Report bugs. * Expect the unexpected. Live long and prosper. 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. UNDER THE COMBAT ACE MODDERS AGREEMENT * report BIG bugs...If I misspelled something or forgot to add a sound file...for dog's sake try to fix it. Not like this mod is using some ancient or extraterrestrial files..

SF2 F-105D Thunderchief by ArmorDave Update Pack 12/3/2023 = For SF2, Any and All = * Full-5 Merged reccomended * ** 1stGen Salvage Operation #7 ** This is a revamp and reissue ArmorDave's F-105D Thunderchiefs for the SF2 Environment (tm). These aircraft were first released in 2004, actually predating their 3rd Wire arrival in Wings Over Vietnam. These were among the first 3-party add-ons for the Strike Fighters series. This mod is split into two aircraft: F-105D-25 (NMF) (actually covers all early D model Thuds) F-105D-31 (SEA 3 Tone) (Vietnam and later) The -25 is equivilant to the stock 3W F-105D, while the -31 is pretty much the same as the 3W F-105D_66; in fact it HAS a 1966 start date. The -25 has 3 skins/decal sets: 7th TFS "Bunyaps" 49th TFW - USAFE Spangdahlem Air Base, West Germany 562nd TFS, 23rd TFW - (shark mouth) 563rd TFS "Ace Of Spades", 23rd TFW -both at McConnel AFB, then Takhali RTAFB The -31 also has 3 skin/decal sets: 333rd TFS "Lancers", 355TFW 357th TFS "Licking Dragons", 355TFW - both at Takhali RTAFB 149th TFS, Virginia ANG (auto start date 1971) The SF2 'date swtich' will turn on the VA ANG skin in 1971(ish). All skins remain in their original bmp format. All markings are decals, and decal randomization is TRUE. Each unit has 24 historical serial and/or buzz numbers. As I always do, those marked with a star (*) are 100% correct for the unit. Those marked with a cross/plus sign (+) while serving in the same Wing, could =NOT= be run down to a particular squadron. Those aircraft with 'nose art' or name badges on the wings (333rd & 357th) are all new, and match their real life aircraft (ie: name ---> serial). As all the squadrons, excepting the VA ANG skin, are listed in the game's Squadron List, those displayed names are activated via Level=1 decals. Drop tanks are supplied for both aircraft, in NMF and Camo, as is a new pilot figure. All other weapons used are stock 3rd Wire, excepting any AGM-12 Bullpups you may want to load. (see notes for more info on loadouts) When in-game, you'll see on the Aircraft Selection Dropdown listing ... F-105D-25 Thunderchief (AD) F-105D-31 Thunderchief (AD) This will diferentiatalize them from the stock 3W or any others that you may have (or not). The "AD", of course, recognizes ArmorDave's contribution to SF. As always, fairly easy to follow yet detailed install instructions are included. Please read them! Also, please read the Notes section for more expositions on which, what, why, how and/or who (whom?). For the historical records, all original readmes are included. Good Hunting! Wrench Kevin Stein

SF2 RoCAF F-86F Sabre Skin & Decal Pack 10/14/2023 -For SF2 =ONLY= (Full 4/5 Merged Reccomended) This is a new skin for the F-86F-40 available here at CombatAce at the following url: https://combatace.com/files/file/13788-sf2-f-86f-40-sabre-remod-pak/ This pack is 'representative' of F-86F series Sabres used by the Republic of China Air Force (Taiwan). In truth, the RoCAF had several 86F sub-variants, but eventually almost all were brought up to -40 specs. All markings, excepting the fuselage and wing ID bands are decals. Decal randomization is TRUE. All serial/buzz numbers are 100% historically accurate for Sabres serving in the RoCAF. They do not, however, replicate any specific or particular squadron. I was unable to run them down accurately enough. You have a "basic" full squadron of 26 numbers. As is always reccomended, 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!

Welcome. This mission pack follows the Operational Conversion Unit (OCU) training undertaken by Pilot Officer Ian Black during 1985/86, the last RAF pilot to qualify on the English Electric Lightning, as documented in his excellent book The Last of the Lightnings (ISBN-10: 075093073X; ISBN-13: 978-0750930734). The missions in this pack are specifically designed to be used with Thirdwire’s Strike Fighters 2 Europe: Expansion Pack 2 (SF2E:Exp2), which introduced all Lightning types to the game. Where possible, stock objects and aircraft are used. Where necessary new aircraft, skins, weapons, and loadouts have been defined and are included in the pack. The missions The missions in this pack form a syllabus for an OCU course, similar to that undertaken by Ian Black at RAF Binbrook, which is broken down into the following phases: Basic aircraft handling. Basic navigation. Basic radar operation. Advanced radar operation. Radar assisted interceptions, with a varying degree of difficulty based on the angle-off of an approaching enemy. Includes high and low altitude, high and low speed, and combinations of these. Air-to-air refuelling (AAR), using radar to acquire the ‘tanker’. Air combat manoeuvres (ACM) against solo and multiple bogeys, using training rounds to record ‘kills’. Air gunnery school, using live weapons against drone targets. Ground gunnery school, using live weapons against static ground targets. Formation flying, culminating in a diamond-9 flypast to celebration OCU graduation.
