File Name: Operation Longbow (Desert 1983) File Submitter: JonathanRL File Submitted: 23 December 2010 File Updated: 25 December 2010 File Category: SF2 Series Add On Missions and Campaigns Operation Longbow 1.1 By JonathnanRL As the 1975 Dhimar-Paran war ends with the exile of Parans Emperor, a discovery is made in the deepest corner of Parani Mountains. A mineral mine, large enough alone to sustain the Empires economy for generations to come have been discovered, much to the dismay of the Dhimari whose oil supply after decades of war have either been spent, burned or sold. As the eighties arrive, Paran have reinforced their Air Force with western jets, cut most of their ties with the Soviet Union and become a member of the United Nations. Dhimar however does not trust the military buildup in the region and argues that a pre-emtive strike to "subdue" Paran is necessary. The Kingdoms true goal, however is control of the mineral mine. The United States, seeing the need to aid their ally reluctantly sends Air Force and Marine Corps Squadrons to the region in order to defend the Kingdom, should Paran attack. On the last of Januari, 1983, A lone Parani Mirage strafes the American F-15s based at D3 Airfield. The next day, The Kingdom of Dhimar attacks the Empire of Paran. Angered by the attack upon their Forces, Ronald Reagan orders the US Forces to support the Dhimari Offensive... You need everything but SF2: Israel Expansion Pack 1 for this Campaign. It is designed to work in a Merged Installation and uses Aircraft from all four as well as Expansion Pack 2. Optional Add-On Aircraft: Theese Aircraft will be present in the campaign if you have them installed. If they are not installed, others will take their place... L-39C "Albatros" http://combatace.com/files/file/11563-aero-l-39-czoza-albatros-add-on-pack/ (Paran Attack Aircraft) F-19 "Flying Frisbee" http://combatace.com/files/file/11480-sf2-f-19-ghostrider-aka-flying-frisbee-upgrade-pak/ (Special Operations Squadron Aircraft) F-16A "Fighting Falcon" Block 1 http://column5.us/miragef.shtml (SF1 Standard.

Version 1.1 applied on this file. A very minor fix, changing the optimal L39 version from the recon to the ground attack version.

I assure you it wont even make it across the baltic. We will fill the Baltics sea floor with wreckages containing that thing :D

False, I adore my familys X-mas Dinner and spend New Years Eve in a bomb shelter. The person below me have used earphones to his Music Player while on transport with his fellows instead of sharing the music because you are ashamed what you are listening to.

You need a bunch of our snow-coated runways as well. Sweden will supply them :D

File Name: Operation Eastern Foothold (Desert 1956) File Submitter: JonathanRL File Submitted: 19 December 2010 File Category: SF2 Series Add On Missions and Campaigns Operation Desert Foothold by JonathanRL In 1956, right before the engagement at Suez and Operation Musketeer, Israel requested further Air Units in their vicinity as added saftey in case more Arab Nations would join the War. Brittish and French Air Squadrons are placed in the Kingdom of Dhimar under the pretext of training the Dhimarian Air Force. This is given further credibility by offering a large number of Hawker Hunter Aircraft at low prices. Dhimar, feeling pressured and threathened by the Empire of Paran, agrees and - as per contract - request Brittish and French aid to defend their oil fields until such a time Dhimar can defend itself. Meanwhile, Egypt who are fighting Israel are not fooled by this show. Suspecting that the French and Brittish will be used to engage them in the near future, deployes a single flight of MiG-15s and encourages their ally to launch a suprise attack upon Dhimar, promising them Dhimar and its oil wells if Paran succeeds. The Empire of Paran Air Force consisting mostly of Spitfires and P51s with elite units flying Hunters and possesing a considerable force of Canberras makes ready for the suprise attack against the outnumbered Allies... Flyable Aircraft French Air Force: Mystere IV (IAF Camo), P51, F-84F Brittish Air Force: Hunter2, Meteor, Spitfire, Vampire Mk9 Egyptian Air Force: MiG-15 Installation: Simply unzip into your Saved GamesThirdWireStrikeFighters2 directory. SF2 and both Expansion Packs are required for this campaign. A merged installation is preferred. Aircraft you have cockpits for are flyable, but abovementioned Aircraft are pre-set to be flown in Campaign. To give a Aircraft a cockpit, open the Aircraft Cockpit you wish to use, Copy the CockpitDataFile=Hunter1_cockpit.ini (This is an example, any will suffice), open the Ini of the Aircraft you cannot fly, copy the line under [AircraftData]. Voila. Flyable. The F-84F Mega Pack is HIGHLY Recommended for this Campaign: http://combatace.com/files/file/11551-thirdwire-f-84f-mega-skin-update-pack/ Thanks to: Thirdwire for the Awesome Game and Aircraft Soulfreak for his lovely F-84F!

The Mirage Factory MiG-29s of Column5 site does work handy with SF2. http://column5.us/miragef.shtml

The Mirage Factory F-14 Pack for SF2 absolutly.

;-)

If you want Battlefield 2 with good bots, try out AIX 2.0 project. Its made for Battlefield Single Player. http://www.aixtended.com/ Also, I would suggest you get SF2: Europe if its the Europe setting you want. SF2 is better then SF1 series in almost every way.

Blessed is the man who has freed such a beuty from the grip of the Russians.

File Name: SF2: Europe Expansion 2 Campaign Flyable Aircraft tweak 1.1 (NATO) File Submitter: JonathanRL File Submitted: 05 December 2010 File Category: SF2 Series Add On Missions and Campaigns Just unzip into your merged Strike Fighters 2 Folder. You need SF2: Israel Exp 1 for this to work. Only tested on fully Merged Installation. I also very much recommend Soulfreaks F-84 Mega Skin Update Pack: http://combatace.com/files/file/11551-thirdwire-f-84f-mega-skin-update-pack/ I have not tested this mod without using it, and using it would be a great thing for you to do. Trust me :) You have to make the aircraft flyable by yourself. To do this, simply copy the line: CockpitDataFile=Hunter6_cockpit.ini into the .ini of the Aircraft you wish to make flyable. For the Spitfires, I recommend using the P-51D Cockpit: CockpitDataFile=P-51D_cockpit.ini Contains the Campaign fix for the F-100A Super Sabre. Warsaw Pact Air Force now also operates a few Squadrons of Spitfires, used as standins for Soviet Props. Added Aircraft (All are Flyable in Campaign with abovementioned modification) USAF: F-84F, P-51D RAF: Canberra, Spitfire9e, Spitfire 9c, Vampire9 France: F-84F, P-51D Denmark: Hunter 5, Meteor8 Luftwaffe: F-84F Netherlands: F-84F, Meteor8, Hunter4 Belgium: F-84F, Meteor8 My Tributes to the NATO Fighters & Mirage Factory teams. Thanks to: Thirdwire Its his toys, I only changed their places in the Toybox! Soulfreak I was no fan of the F-84F, but you converted me in a New York Minute :) All rights belong to their respective owners. Click here to download this file

Thanks for the Info. I don´t know if I am planning an update, but if I make one, I will be sure to add your into it. My sources was actually mainly wikipedia, and was willing to make adjustments for Gameplay. Interesting reading nevertheless :)

File Name: SF2: Europe Expansion 2 Campaign Flyable Aircraft tweak File Submitter: JonathanRL File Submitted: 05 December 2010 File Updated: 05 December 2010 File Category: SF2 Series Add On Missions and Campaigns Please note that there is now a Updated Version with Additional Aircraft & Nations added: http://combatace.com/files/file/11553-sf2-europe-expansion-2-campaign-flyable-aircraft-tweak-11-nato/ This is a Tweak to make more of Thirdwires Stock Aircraft flyable in the Europe 1956 Campaign. Added Aircraft (All are Flyable in Campaign if cockpit is added, instructions below) USAF: A-1H, F-84F, P-51D RAF: Canberra, Spitfire9e, Spitfire 9c, Vampire9 France: F-84F, P-51D Contains the Campaign fix for the F-100A Super Sabre. Warsaw Pact Air Force now also operates a few Squadrons of Spitfires, used as standins for Soviet Props. Just unzip into your merged Strike Fighters 2 Folder. You need at least SF2: Vietnam and SF2: Israel Exp 1 for this mod. Only tested on fully Merged Installation. You have to make the aircraft flyable by yourself. To do this, simply copy the line: CockpitDataFile=Hunter6_cockpit.ini into the .ini of the Aircraft you wish to make flyable. Oh, and Good Luck if you choose to fly the P-51D. You are going to need it. Thanks to: Thirdwire Its his toys, I only changed their places in the Toybox! All rights belong to their respective owners. Click here to download this file

Well, I just posted an Update, where I removed the A-1H. This I did for two reasons: It removed the SF:V requirement and it was not supposed to be there. No worries tought, I left you plenty of other toys to play with :)

I wish to recommend the F-84F Mega Pack for the flyable F-84s http://combatace.com/files/file/11551-thirdwire-f-84f-mega-skin-update-pack/

... Actually, a NF that focused more on the 50:ies Era would be awesome. Esp as the 56 Campaign has dandy little of the actual NATO Fighters that are not France, UK and USA...

Made a little addition to the Campaigns for the Exp 1 Users: This adds F-84F, P-51D, both Spitfire versions and the Vampire9 to the Campaign. If you have the Aircraft flyable, they are flyable and selectable in the Campaign Screen. You must have Exp 1 installed, or all it does is loosing you a couple of well needed squadrons. The bug is in the Campaign since Upgrade Date seems to be same as Deployment Date: UpgradeType=FIXED Upgrade[01].Date=11/20/1956 Upgrade[01].Type=F-100C I changed the Update date in the Campaign file below to one year later. Consider it a minor hotfix :D Note that the file will also change the things mentioned above the qouteline.
