Tu-16C Badger {Tu-16 K-10-26 Badger C(D)} (by Pasko) NOTE: some of the called for items (ie: ECM pods) do NOT exist in the weapons pak. I believe they are 'vitrual', being built in to the aircraft itself.

I've never seen any reference to Badgers carrying a designator pod, so perhaps EOGB should be more realistic. Seeing this was designed as a cruise missile carrier, the loadouts below should take care of all. loadout ini: [Attack] Loadout[01].WeaponType=K-10SN Loadout[01].Quantity=1 Loadout[03].WeaponType=Kh-26MP Loadout[03].Quantity=1 Loadout[05].WeaponType=Kh-26MP Loadout[05].Quantity=1 Loadout[01].WeaponType=K-10SN Loadout[01].Quantity=1 Loadout[03].WeaponType=Kh-26MP Loadout[03].Quantity=1 Loadout[05].WeaponType=Kh-26MP Loadout[05].Quantity=1 [Anti-Ship] Loadout[01].WeaponType=K-10SN Loadout[01].Quantity=1 Loadout[03].WeaponType=Kh-22MP Loadout[03].Quantity=1 Loadout[05].WeaponType=Kh-22MP Loadout[05].Quantity=1 [Recon] Loadout[02].WeaponType=ECMPod Loadout[02].Quantity=1 Loadout[04].WeaponType=ECMPod Loadout[04].Quantity=1 Loadout[06].WeaponType=ECMPod Loadout[06].Quantity=1 Wrench Kevin Stein

Tu-16A Badger A (by Pasko) data ini: some info snipped for laziness. As usual, the "change to SOVIET" fixes all! [bombBay] SystemType=WEAPON_STATION StationID=1 StationGroupID=1 StationType=INTERNAL AttachmentPosition=0.0,-3.5,0.0 AttachmentAngles=0.0,0.0,0.0 LoadLimit=9100 AllowedWeaponClass=BOMB,NUC AttachmentType=SOVIET NumWeapons=24 loadout ini: [Attack] Loadout[01].WeaponType=FAB500 Loadout[01].Quantity=24 Loadout[01].WeaponType=FAB500 Loadout[01].Quantity=24 [sEAD] Loadout[01].WeaponType=FAB500 Loadout[01].Quantity=24 [Anti-Ship] Loadout[01].WeaponType=FAB500 Loadout[01].Quantity=24 On a side note, for the Badgers (all versions), if you have WoV or access to the cockpit of one the A-6 Intruders, this makes for quite a workable substitute cockpit. You can also use the Intruder avaioncs ini, as you'll only need the ground mappin and maybe terrain advoidance modes. If doing so, you'll need to adjust the 'pilot position' to match that of the aircraft (being the Badger is substantualy larger than the A-6) as show below. Remember: the cockpit ini MUST be placed in the aircraft's main folder; you should also have /cockpit folder if you wish a gunsight/bombsight. I also reccomend having all the cockpit bits in there as well, just to make sure. cockpit ini mod: copy/paste this over the cockpitseat section in the A-6 cockpit ini. DON"T FORGET TO RENAME IT "TU16_cockpit.ini" and leave in the Tu-16A's main folder. Make the needed change in the Tu-16A.ini to point to this cockpit ini!!!

File Name: 112 Sqdn RAF Sabre skin File Submitter: Wrench File Submitted: 6 Apr 2007 File Category: SF F-86/FJ-2/3 Fury Skins Canadair CL-13 Sabre (RAF Sabre Mk.4) 112 Squadron skin set For SF, WoV & WoE Cold War installs What we have here is a skin representing RAF 112 Squadron, circa 1954-ish when they were equipped with the Canadair-built Sabres. They only used them for a short time, while awaiting the arrival of the new Hawker Hunter or Supermarine Swift. This skin set is particularly designed to add on to the RAF Sabre 4 mod I released some time ago, but can be used on any of the Canadair Sabres by Zur and Co. You'll also find another folder "misc-cockpit stuff" that has an updated cockpit ini and new gunsight tgas for use on the aforementioned RAF Sabre 4 mod. The cockpit ini also incorporates the fix for the EGT gauge. Good Hunting! Wrench Kevin Stein Click here to download this file

Dude, that like the best 'stang skin out there right now!!! Total beauty!! Wrench Kevin Stein

Oh, you HAD to remind me!!!??? After I get through updating the Commies, I'll get started on the WW2 stuff. Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan definately need some tweeking, especially on the older birds (ie: earlier released than 6/06) Wrench Kevin Stein

and don't forget the WW2 Nations ini...otherwise nobody comes out the play! Wrench Kevin Stein

Surefire way to get the desert cat: 1) locate and purchase Strike Fighters, or alternatively; 2) locate and purchase Strike Fighters Gold, or alternatively; 3) read the Knowledge Base thread "Third Party Terrains" with a few simple ini edits, just about all terrains can use the GermanyCE cat (or for WoV, VietnamSEA.cat) *note, some exceptions apply with some 'desert-type' terrains, and therefore the alternate terrain tiles come into play. Also, some airfield 'sizes' may need adjustment in aircraft data inis or terrain inis.* Like they said above, it's all do-able with a few line edits and mouse clicks! Wrench Kevin Stein

Yeah, and I made an AWAC out of it too!! Along with the Tu-4, and a B-49 variant. could release, if I asked/got permission from the Ck 6 guys to use their rotodome. Wrench Kevin Stein

1) why are you putting US weapons on a Ruskie bird??? They won't work due to it's an 'enemy' type aircraft 2) end service date for the Bull is WAAAAY to early for guided weapons 3) what does your //Sounds section look like??? This is from mine, and works just fine: (well, excepting for the damaged engine sound..) [sound] EngineSoundName=PropLoop3 AfterburnerSoundName= DamagedEngineSound=TankEngine FlapsSoundName=Flaps AirbrakesSoundName= GearsSoundName=Gear 4) are you guns fixed? ie: the correct type??? They should be NS-23s The Tupelov series bombers are next up on my list of updated data and loadouts for the KB, so hang tight! I may be the King of What If.. for the SF/WoV/WoE series, but some of you folks have gone 'round the bend!!! Make me feel like I'm flying "The Wingman" stories again (which, btw, I really enjoy!!!!!!!) Wrench Kevin Stein

File Name: Desert Pink camo for RAF Eagle FGR.1 File Submitter: Wrench File Submitted: 4 Apr 2007 File Category: F-15 RAF Eagle FGR.1 Desert pink camo skin for WoE: This is a repaint for the F-15A Eagle that comes stock in WOE. Someone was complaining that they wanted a camo skin (ok, so they what they really wanted was a gray/green RAF - this was easier). So this is what you get. --NOTE: this is for use on the STOCK 3rd Eagle from WoE, and is designed with the RAF mod in mind that I released a little way's back. Like the lo-viz gray, it makes use of existing serial number decals. Included are 'lo-viz' versions of the fin flash and roundels, which, when all is said and done, were supplied with the game. I just de-saturated them to dull the colors. It's not a real great skin, but it's for fun, so what the heck, right???? You'll also have some (between 60-70) nose art decals, too. Some are 'borrowed' from some of my other sets, some are new taken from photos or drawing of real RAF aircraft (mostly Tornados or Victors) that had a nice Desert Storm or Telic feel to them, others are brand new, many for fun and lots just because I could do them, and had the artworks available. As usual, the standard semi-clothed or nekked female form is quite prevelant -so be warned! You'll also find various other types, since this is a more modern skin, from classic style pinups, TV, movies, anime, anything I could find to liven it up a little. Install instructions are in the readme enclosed; it's just a simple skin, so no 'brain science' here :) Remember: this is for the STOCK, 3rd Wire Wings Over Europe F-15A (well, really the RAF version) ONLY. The Mirage Factory's is just too beautiful, and I won't mess with that one! Enjoy! Wrench Kevin Stein Click here to download this file

It's a quick fix I discovered almost a year & 1/2 ago, that solves several problems with some of the non-functional avioncs pods (in particular, the Skyhawk humps, 17PFU Izumrud radar pod, F-82 radar pod, the F-6 pylons, and host of others) It forces the game engine to load them everytime, and with a jamming strength of 0 or 1, hurts nothing and costs nothing. As to adding a hardpoint, there's absolutely nothing too it. You just need the entries in the relevant sections of the data ini (ie: if it's a wing station, on the right or left wing), and then the call out in the Weapons Stations section. How ya think I got HVARs to mount on the F4U-1D, when they didn't have any (or, an actual -1D for that matter!) Isn't there something in the KB about editing hardpoints???? Maybe we can talk Lexx into posting a few screenies of his experimental MiG...I seem to remember seeing them over the 3rd Wire boards.... It DOES look kinda cool!

I don't actually think the VVS would use a valuable missile carrying interceptor to go shoot up boats or get shot full of holes punching through the NATO air defenses. But... Also, you may load the humongous S-24 rockets on any of the hardpoints; these, although unguided, will sink any merchant vessel, and blow really big holes on most buildings (aircraft shelters, fuel tanks, etc). Personally, I prefer the UV series of rocket pods Wrench Kevin Stein

One could be easily added via data ini edits, but I have no information if these aircraft actually carried one. Perhaps an EOGB would be more realistic?? As it stands now, these loadouts are 'good enough' The "IFP" and "DLP" items do NOT exist, either as weapons or in the various avionics.dlls Wrench kevin stein

It is concievable, of course, that you can add the UV rocket pods for both the ATTACK or ANTI_SHIP by just adding them to hardpoints 2 & 3, as seen in the SEAD loadout. Wrench kevin stein
