Deutschland 86: Block 25 F-16C/Ds Introduced to USAFE, 1986 This mod represents the F-16C/D Block 25s introduction to service in USAFE, specifically in Germany in the mid 1980s. The squadrons of the 50th TFW at Hahn AB upgraded from Block 15s to Block 25s during 1986. The two squadrons of the 86th TFW at Ramstein AB swapped out their F-4E Phantom IIs for Block 25s starting at the end of 1985, although they then swapped again for Block 30s towards the end of 1986. Included F-16C and D Block 25 aircraft Weapons, Effects and Sounds Installation unzip "2 mod folder"; place contents in desired mod folder. Allow overwrites if necessary Required copy of StrikeFighters 2: Israel for F-16 destroyed model MOD NOTE The F-16C_25 aircraft tends to pitch up rapidly resulting in a tail strike if player does not fly carefully. This problem is noted in several FMs and as far back as the Block 25 in NATO Fighters 5. There is no fix at this time although it is more immersion killer than damaging to the aircraft. Best to keep the nose down until rotation speed (varies by load) then "pop" the aircraft off the runway and climb out. History Note In the 526th TFS and 512th TFS skins for the F-16C_B25, the number list features serial numbers that have periods on them. these denote aircraft that could be traced to the 86th TFW, but not to a specific squadron. I utilized my best educated guesses on which squadron had which airframe. As better information comes along i will update as able.

Re-release of my A-4M Skyhawk II mod. Readme is included - feel free to read it.

The Beriev Be-6 "Madge" was a flying boat produced by the Soviet Beriev OKB. It was capable of accomplishing a wide variety of missions, such as long-range maritime reconnaissance, coastal and supply line patrols, torpedo/bombing strikes, mine-laying, and transport operations. The Be-6 was built from 1949 to 1957 at the Beriev plant in Taganrog . <<< This work may not be used in payware projects or in projects that will not be freely distributed under these same terms >>> NOTICE: model still have no moving propellers and the clearance from the ground is higher than should be, because original Model is built as static one and is half-inserted into the ground. also rear gunner is not placed in position (it will be done with next update) ~~~~~~~~~~~ Credits: ~~~~~~~~~~~ ODZADZE for transforming Be-6 Static Ground model into Flying model !
