SF2 F-84B Thunderjet, 49th FIS, 14th FG Pack 7/7/2019 -For SF2, Any and All (Full Merged Reccomended) This is a NEW aircraft, the Republic F-84B Thunderjet, depicted as when it first became operational in 1947. It it based on (one of) RussoUK's F-84s. It represents aircraft of the 49th FS (JP), 14th FG from 1947 through 1949. The 49th was the first USAF squadron to recieve and deploy the Thunderjet into active service (along with it's sister squadrons the 37th and 48th).They served in the "day and good weather" Air Defense role of the Eastern United states from Dow AFB, Maine. The skin is in jpg format, and 26 serial and Buzz numbers decals were created. Decal Randomization is TRUE. On the number list (individual aircraft serial) drop down, any serials marked with a star (*) has been positively identified as having served in the 49th. The others, while some DID serve in other squadrons of the 14th FG, they could not be identified to any of the 3 squadrons. Others, for the B model, are generic in nature. A NEW late 1940s pilot figure is included, as is the "f84" jet sound. Drop tanks, WW2 era bombs, rockets, etc are NOT. You should have these already. On the Aircraft selection dropdown menu you'll see: F-84B ThunderJet (RUK) (This is to differentiate Russ's T-Jet from the as yet uncompleted FastCargo version; if it every gets done!). 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. Happy Landings! Wrench Kevin Stein
