http://combatace.com/files/file/15390-sf2-kaw-hawker-sea-fury-sb-pack/

You have skins for the following squadrons:
 
803 NAS, crica 1951
870 NAs (aka VF-870) circa 1953
 
The SF2 'date switch' is active, so VF-870 will turn on in 1953.
All markings, execpting the fin flash, are decals (due to running out of meshes). Decal randomization is TRUE for both skins.
Also included, from eburger's SF2NA Ulitmate CV Pack, are slightly modified versions of the HMCS Bonaventure & Magnificent. See "Notes" for change log.

SF2 F-15A Eagle, Hawaii Air National Guard Skin Pack    5/19/2020
= For SF2 (Any & All, Full-5 Merged Preferred) =
*You must have the STOCK F-15A in you hanger to make use of this mod!!*
This is a reskinning of the stock (3rd Wire) F-15A Eagle as used by the 199th TFS, 154 TFW of the Hawaiian Air National Gurad from 1987 to 2010, when they were replaced by F-22 Raptors. (It should be noted, F-15Cs were also used, alongside their older siblings).
This mod uses the stock skin, with various decals. All markings are decals, especially the squadron and nose zaps. I was unable to run down historical serial numbers, so 26 stock 3W decals are (re) used. Decal randomization is TRUE.
When in-game, on the "select skin" drop down, you'll see:
199th TFS, HI ANG (87-09)
This will assist you in selecting the skin. 
As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them .... they can be accessed after unzippering. Please follow the 'usual instructions'

AT-6B Texan COIN, Iraqi AF
=For SF2, Any and All (but Full-4 Merged Prefered/Reccomended)
 
A new skin and decals, some data, loadout and weapons mods for Dels and FastCargo's AT-6B Texan COIN version. The aircraft is available here:
 
http://combatace.com/files/file/9849-at-6b-for-sf2-version-15/
 
This mod is designed to be applied =OVER= the existing AT-6B in your game(s) install.
This is NOT the full aircraft; just a package of inis, the new skin and decals.
 
The new skin is for the reformed Iraqi Air Force, circa 2010 and later, with some Real Life ™ and extrapolated serial numbers in the new style, along with the new fin flash/national insignia (locations are educated guesswork based upon other aircraft's placement). Data ini edits are very small; mostly to reset the cockpit position to remove the 'double cockpit'. Everything else is pretty much the same.
 
A new weapon, the FIM-92 Stinger for self-defense has been created, so as not to conflict with those used on the MANPADS versions (this had been an issue). The avionics ini has been updated to use the generic "RWR.lst" by dtmdragon.
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them!!
 
Important: it should be noted here, that the userlist supplied covers operators of =BOTH= the T-6 trainer and AT-6 COIN. It should also be noted, that I've made the assumption (oh! that word!!) of the T-6 and the AT-6 being interchangable for Iraqi use for training and 'internal security'.

SF2 WW2 MTO Kittyhawk IA, 112 Squadron
 
-- Something for the WW2 MTO players --
 
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
*There is a distinct probabality that this mod =WILL= work in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs.
After all, it's just a skin and decals!! However, the decal radomization will not be
functional in SF/Wo* 1stGen game installs*
 
A fairly simple redecaling for Raven's Kittyhawk Mk.IA as flown with 112 Squadron in Egypt
and the Western Desert. In fact, other than the skins getting a light coating of dirt and
smoke, it's still Raven's original skin. This will add the Squadron Code, plane-in-group
letters and serial number decals to his original skin. It just overwrites the decals and
texture set ini (although the skin map will also overwrite, too. don't worry about that!)
 
This skin is still in bmp format, so it's usable in SF/Wo*. Decal randomization is TRUE.
All the markings are decals, which (serials, plane-in-group letters) are reused from
another Kittyhawk skins set.
Also included, is a NEW loading screen from my AvArt collection

SF2 P-47N Thunderbolt Post WW2 USAAF/USAF & Air National Guard Skins Pack       6/20/2019
-For SF2, (Full 5 Merged Reccomended)-
This is a package for post-WW2 and Air National Guard squadrons that flew the P/F-47N Thunderbolt in the years from 1946-1954. These are for V.2 of Russ's N-Jug. All skins are in jpg format.
You can find Version 2.0 of Russ' P-47N at the following URL:
https://combatace.com/files/file/13202-p-47n-157z/
The skins included herein for Regular USAAF/USAF units are:
37th/48th/49th FS, 14th FG
99th/100th/301st FS, 477th CG/332nd FG
The other skins included here are for the Air National Guards of the following states: 
Connecticut
Delaware
Georgia
Hawaii (Territory of)
Massachusetts
Pennsylvania
Puerto Rico (Territory of)
The USAAF/USAF had divided the country at the Mississippi River, and had P-51 Mustang ANG units in the west, and P-47D/N units in the east. This is why this set only has Thunderbolts, and all are Eastern States. 
They are displayed on the Squadron Selection Drop-down window on the Loading Screen, as below:
37th/48th/49th FS 14FG (1946-48)
99th/100th/301st FSs 332nd FG (1945-48)
118th FS, 103rd FG (CT ANG 1946-52)
142nd FS (DE ANG 1946-54)
128th FS (GA ANG 1947-51)
199th FS (HI ANG 1946-54)
101st FS (MA ANG 1947-51)
146th FS, 112th FG (PA ANG 1947-51)
198th FS (PR ANG 1947-55)
Operational dates are rounded to the closest full year. The SF2 'date switch' is =NOT= used on any of these skins, as they overlap each other. End users (tm) will have to make any changes manually on the Loadout Screen for their flightmates.
A new data ini, with vastly improved FM and engine parameters (Now! With WEP!) is included. Some minor adjustments in hit boxes, armor, fuel tanks, etc have been performed. The operational years remain the same, so WW2 PTO users need not worry. Just drop it in. A backup copy of the original data ini is included, as a safety measure. It should be noted, Stary's superb Late WW2 cockpit -HIGHLY reccomended for this bird- is NOT included. If there is enough interest, I can add it to this, and upload an update. Or update the basic WW2 aircraft package.
Other than special squadron markings (color bands and the like) all  markings are decals. Decal randomization is TRUE. Each squadron has 26 serial and 'Buzz number' decals. On the individual aircraft select drop down, for all skins, any marked with a star (*) are been 100% positively identified as having served in that unit. Any not marked should be considered generic in nature as they don't actually represent aircraft from any particular unit, but are late production block P-47Ns. Please see the "Notes" section for information regarding the 332nd & 14th FGs. They are treated as special cases. A reminder -- this package =ONLY= contains American users (USAF & ANG). None of the export customers are included. Nor are any weapons or pilot figures included. You should have them already.
As is always reccomended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. As there exists an eariler version of these skins/decals, you will want to delete them or back them up to a different location entirely =BEFORE= installing these. Also, PLEASE read the "Notes" for further explainitory words on hows and whys.

Decal randomization is TRUE. Serial numbers are 100% correct, and matched to the 'plane-in-group' letters, excpeting those marked with a star (*). Those aricraft DID serve in the 336, but I was unable to match the serials to any individual letter. There are NO nose arts, excepting Gentile & Godfrey's red checks, and Gentile's "Shangra-La". Others texture/decal artists are encouraged to do the leg/brain work if they wish to create others. Be advised, there may not be enough mesh positions for correct placements.
Also, included is a modified loadout ini, as I'd originally inadvertently assigned the drop tanks to the wrong hardpoints!
 
As always, fairly easy to follow, detailed install instructions are included. So, please read them ....
 
Good Hunting!

(this is an expansion of the pack seen previously in the "Decals, How To?" discussion thread in the SF2 Mods/Skinning Forum. If you DID download that pack from the attachement in that thread, you are advised to DELETE the 336 skin and decals folders, as this WILL replace it)

SF2 WW2 B-24D 319th BS, 90th BG, SoWesPac Skin/Decals Pak
 
-- Something for the PTO players --
= For SF2, Full-5 Merged (Reccomended/Preferred) =
 
A new skin for the B-24D Liberator by pasko. This skin represents aircraft of the 319BS of the 90th BG "Jolly Rogers" in their early (late 42-mid 43-ish) livery as seen in New Guinea and the Southwest Pacific operations areas.
 
It is designed for use on the recenly release SF2ish B-24D mod, available at the following url:
 
http://combatace.com...or-eto-mto-pak/
 
The skin is brand new, from my Home Grown Template ™, and is in jpg format. New serial number decals were created; they should be considered 'generic' in nature, as they don't accurately represent the unit, but DO represent the correct model variant depicted. Decal randomization is set to TRUE. There are NO nose arts.
 
As this skin IS Theatre specific to the Pacific regions, you'll have to do some editing after installing to the B-24D in your PTO-centric mods folder, and remove or rename the ETO/MTO skins.
