Republic P-47D-25 Thunderbolt (BubbleTop) by Wolf257 Please note this aircraft mod is released "As Is"; any flaws or faults NOT caused by my ini edits are most likely unfixable and must be lived with (until a replacement model is created by one of our over-worked 3D Gurus). I just want to get this off my hard drive, and have 'those that know' test and experiment with the FM -- it NEEDS more fine tuning (see "Notes" below). This is a complete aircraft,and is designed for Post-World War 2 usage, by the USAF and several Allied airforces; in particular those in Latin America. Included skins are: USAF Post-War Natural Metal, 525th FBS, circa 1946, West Germany; 1º Grupo de Caça, Brazilian AF, WW2 MTO (OD/Gray); 1º Grupo de Caça, FAB, Post-War natural metal (called "FAB2"; reuses some historic decals from the above skin, repainted for NM usage, and all new post-war serials for 25 aircraft -there're still more to be done, if someone wants to!); Escuadrón de Caza, Colombian AF, 1946- the late 50s. 100% accurate serials; "Generic" NM, for anyone else, and can be used as a basis for other countries (Italy, France, RAF, etc) All markings excepting the 2 FAB skins and the FAC post-war with painted-on rudder stripes, are decals. 2 cockpits are included, one is the Mustang-style from the original release, and Stary's 'Generic Late WW2 Cockpit' - which it is set to use right now. You can switch as you wish (Stary's is better, of course). All external lighting is 100% correct for this model. As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. It is suggested that you unzip the archive to a temp folder or your desktop to access the entire 'readme' before instilling. Also, give the "Notes" section a read for further information and stuff like that there, illuminating defects, flaws, my goofs, and etc. It should be noted, that as we ONLY have the -25 model, it is incorrect for the units/countries depicted herein. These would/should be later production D models, with the fin filet. We make do with what we have. Good Hunting! wrench Kevin Stein

Yakovlev Yak-3RD "What If..." Mixed-Propulsion Fighter by Pakso = For SF2, Any & All versions (Full-4 Merged Prefered*) = *Note: Full-4 merged prefered tag is because some decals used are referenced from SF2:I* Modifications, tweeks, FM enhancements, and so forth to Pakso's Prop/Rocket fighter. This makes the assumption (oh! that word!) the 3RD was put into serial production, instead of the just the 2 prototypes that were historically built. As was the original release, it is "As Is" with all the flaws and warts and etc. See the "Notes" section for more details. This package replaces the one I uploaded some long time back at CombatAce. As expected, the canopy opens/closes via manual animation keystroke -the (in)famous Shift/0. No weapons or guns are supplied with this pak; they are the same ones included in the Yak-9U pak recently released, and should be available in Gunny's Weapons Pak. It also should be noted, the Mission Profiles that can be flown have been limited to A-A: CAP, Intercept (due to expected range limitations), and Recon just for fun (with drop tanks). All new skins, from new Home-Grown Templates ™ in 1024x are supplied. One is Natural Metal, and other is overall Medium Gray. See the "Notes" section regarding the 2-tone Gray camo supplied, but not activated (severe LOD mapping issues) As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them. Also, give the "Notes" section a read for further information and stuff like that there. For historical purposes, Pasko's original readme is included. This will give a (relatively) decent "What If..." for WW2 and the Post-War period; the Beginning of the Cold War, hence it location in the "What If Hangar". wrench kevin stein
