7 pointsi just had some crazy idea , what if i add all the attachment points from the launch rail to the missile , as soon as you launch the missile this attachment points are gone but as long as the missile is on the launch rail they are there one problem is that TW was using the wrong diameter for the Shafrir-2 they used 150 mm and the missile has 160 mm diameter so the launch rail dimensions are wrong to , i adjusted the rear bracket as good as i could if there is anew aircraft model with the correct attachment points i can remove them from the missile

3 pointsjust found an old cd with some videos from the Hütten Air Show from 1987 , Hütten is a very small village in Switzerland and in a valley above a small lake , they organized a air show in 1987 , the spectators are on the hill side above the lake and have an fantastic view on the aircrafts some times even from on top ( depends how low the pilots fly in ) on of the reasons for that air show is to generate money for disable children , the organizer was asking the swiss air force if they could participate but they declined for what ever reason ( the people there were really pissed about it ) , so the organizer was asking the german ministry of defence if they could send some airplanes and they did from the Heer = CH-53G and BO-105 from the Luftwaffe = C-160 Transall from the Marine = Panavia Tornado all aircraft were stationed at Zürich Airport and flew from there to the valley at Hütten , the Tornado from the Marine had a brocken afterburner and normally would not fly like that but because the people there where so nice to us that Mario ( the Pilot ) decided to fly any way , in the video you can see that only 1 afterburner is functioning i was part of the 4 man crew from the CH-53G , 2 pilots and 2 flight mechanics , after our display we landet on the hill side and open the helicopter for a static display , by landing on the hill side we damaged with our down wash a bratwurst / sausage grill but the owner did not mind at all he was happy that we where so close by ( good for the business i guess ) video VTS-01 up to VTS-04 from the Hütten Air Show video VTS-02 C-160 fly by video VTS-04 CH-53G and Panvia Tornado video VTS-05 CH-53G over Germany , made by a former colleague Herman Luisoder video VTS-06 CH-53G over Afghanistan , made by a former colleague Herman Luisoder i apologize for the video quality , it is not the best , and don´t forget the Hütten Air Show videos are from 1987 you may need the VLC Media Player to watch this videos VTS_01_1.VOB VTS_02_1.VOB VTS_03_1.VOB VTS_04_1.VOB VTS_05_1.VOB VTS_06_1.VOB

Mod of the superb Mirage 4000 to make it look like a fictional fighter plane for the indian air force. INSTRUCTIONS 1. Drop the folders into your Mod folder. If asked to overwrite, click yes. CREDITS Big Thanks to all the people involved (see original credits) in the creation of this superb mod. Also thanks to Logan4 for allowing me to release it. ORIGINAL CREDITS taken from Logan4's Mirage 4000P & PB This aircraft mod represents Dassault's what-if Mirage 4000P fighter and its trainer PB variant in the Portugese Air Force service. This package comes with 1 skin set for each variant, with decals for P (14 planes), and for PB (6 planes). Also it is dedicated to our friend Cocas who put his work and time to bring us many of the rare or experimental aircraft in this game series and originally created the base model for this plane. This model is meant for SF2 games only, SF1 variants will be uploaded at the SF1 section. Install is the regular dropping the contents in their respective places. In case you have the prototype or French A and B variants you can skip the overwrite prompt of weapons as those 6 items are identical. Please note: The model can be quite heavy on FPS in large formations on weaker machines, so if required, either resize skin files or use lower lods(_nd,001,002,003) as lod1. The model uses the general french and NATO weapons, either as part of weapon packs or the Mirage 2000 family. Important: The PB variant comes with 2 types of cockpit, the basic setup will use a simple pit that has only the pilots cabin instrumented. The other is a fully modeled front and rear compartment, in which you want to fly you should activate the proper line in the AC's.ini file. CockpitDataFile=Mirage4000PB_Cockpit.ini <---- basic setup ;CockpitDataFile=Mirage4000PB_Cockpit_full1.ini <------ front seat ;CockpitDataFile=Mirage4000PB_Cockpit_full2.ini <------ rear seat Be aware - the piloting seat position can not be changed during/in game, so chose wisely! Make sure to read the manual included with the package. ---------------------- Creators of these Aircraft mods as members of CombatAce site: Original 3D work: Cocas Aircraft 3d update and additional changes: Logan4 Cockpit 3d work: Logan4 Aircraft FM: Cliff7600 Aircraft avionics: Loborojo, Cliff7600, logan4 Skin files and decals: Flogger23, Cliff7600, logan4, loborojo Cockpit files: Logan4, Cliff7600 Thanks to Crusader for additional brochure files Big thanks to members of CombatAce for helping and answering our questions and in sorting out some of the issues we got while creating this mod.

1 pointThank you. Well, the roundel positions can still be adjusted. If it gets released depends on @guuruu being ok with it, since he is not part of the Freeware Licensing Agreement.

1 pointBeautiful skin ValAstur. Hope it gets released. Maybe I'm just hardwired, but to my eye the roundels would look better in same fuselage and wing positions as the RAF GR.1.

1 pointIf there is any modders out there interested I have a 3ds model of the SR71 Blackbird availble that I don't have the skills or time to take any further that I will willingly donate in the hope that we can see it flying in the near future in Woe or WOV. Lazboy

1 pointHey folks, how 'bout this one: The fulfilment of the Peace Xenia I contract, signed with the Reagan administration in 1987, got delayed short before the first aircraft could be handed over to the HAF. As a reason for this delay, the Pentagon stated important matters of foreign security, since the Soviet Union (and the Warsaw Pact) started to show significant signs of wear and the beginning emancipation of the eastern block countries. Therefore, the Pentagon wanted to use the aircraft to reinforce overseas units with them. In exchange, the HAF got offered a significant discount for the next contract, Peace Xenia II. Greece, not willing to wait, got in touch with Panavia via the german ministry for foreign affairs. Panavia offered the HAF 36 Tornado GR.1 from a cancelled order, partly produced, which could be delivered in a short period of time. The HAF accepted the conditions for the aircraft and was able to introduce the first sixteen GR.1H in January 1989, assigning them to the 330 Moira Keravnos (Lightning). The remaining 20 aircraft got delivered during the following 18 months.

1 pointAgreed. The advantage of having a "complete install" is you don't need to worry about prerequisite requirements for the various mods that are available.

1 pointThe Thirdwire store to my knowledge works, but I would recommend getting SF2 Complete for 100 bucks (99.99), as it has everything you need to get started and whatnot. They do offer the other games, and they're patched to the "latest" patch, July 2013, so you're "up to date" with the game and such.

1 pointOk, forget it, I've found it .. ' In terms of hardware, the scope of the modernization is impressive. It involves replacement of the primary three-dimensional AN/SPS-39 radar with the AN/SPS-48 '

1 pointLooks nice, but you should dirty them up, as if they're well used. I mean I don't know why (though cynically I could guess) they don't clean them, but still nice job

1 pointFinally got around to sorting out my controls for ODS, and now I get to fly the one plane I was obsessed with as a youngster following the War on TV: the Buccaneer! Got some nice air combat shots, too.

Part Time Photos Chapter 2: RF-4C Phantom in the Kentucky ANG A TMF Rebuilt skin pack This skinpack brings the Photo Phantoms of the Kentucky ANG's 165th Tactical Reconnaisance Squadron into the game, both in its basic skins as well as the various specials for deployments an competitions. Required a functional copy of any Strike Fighters 2 game except for SF2 North Atlantic (the only one without a native F-4 destroyed model) The aircraft from the TMF Rebuilt RF-4C Late set, available here: https://combatace.com/files/file/18263-late-model-rf-4cs-photo-phantoms-after-vietnam/ Included Skins for two different aircraft models, Decals for those skins Installation Unzip file, add Objects folder to desired mod folder. there should be no overwrites with this pack ****************************************************************************************************************************************************** NOTE!!

Nightshade often shows me my errors in screenshots he's just sharing for fun, while Menrva helps me with the more technical aspects -Sundowner, ravenclaw_007, yakarov79 and daddyairplanes templates are a mix of layers as contributed by these four. compiled in current form by daddyairplanes About The Mirage Factory Rebuilt Back in the early days of Wings Over series modding The Mirage Factory, lead by bpao was the peak of modding excellence. Many of their models are still heavily in use today, 15 years later and still amongst the very best. This despite the team not creating any new mods since the passing of Oliver Anguille in 2009. But time does move on, and the next generation of modders have ideas, techniques and tools not available back then. With the help of some of the original modellers (who have copies of the original max files) we can update these fine aircraft for the 2020s. Rebuilt for new terrains and campaigns that were just hopeful wishes over a decade ago. The Mirage in the logo is camoflaged, much like the real aircraft in later service. The "HD" has been replaced with "Rebuilt" as what was HD in the 2010s is just standard today. Finally, the new logo thanks Oli, both for the aircraft that are still relevant today and for the inspiration he's given to the modders that followed him. on behalf of The Mirage Factory (original and rebuilt) I thank you for downloading this mod, and hope you enjoy it.
