For the "What If..." world of SWOTL2 WW2:1946
Mod of Pasko's Vampire FB 5 into an earlier F.3 version, had an improved version been rushed into production. A semi-complete aircraft mod, it contains nearly everything needed to fly.
NOTE: there are NO lod files in this package -- you will be transfering them from the Vamp 5. I do not feel it is correct to include the aircraft model.
This package contains all the inis, skin, decals and a new cockpit based off of Kesselbrut's Spitfire. Several of the gauges have been relabeled for jet usage. While not 100% accurate, it is a 'closest, best fit' for the bird. New damage tgas are also included.
 
PLEASE READ THE ENCLOSED README FOR FULL, DETAILED INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS!!! You also must have the latest WepPak installed for the WW2 era weapons.
 
With thanks to all involved!

Bf-109T10 Carrier Based Fighter
For SF/WoV/WoE WW2: SWOTL Installs
 
A definate "What If..." style of aircraft, based off of Wolf257's Bf-109G10.
 
I've taken more than a few liberties, most of which is using the later model G10 for the base aircraft. We make the assumption that the KM, having fielded the original 109T-2/3 (originally modified/rebuilt from Emils), found them a little lacking, and had the Messerschmitt factory create a newer version, based off the Gustav 10. Hence the reason for calling it the "Bf-109T10". Also, the fact I don't have the skin template for the Russo's E, and I do for the G...it was an easy choice. This is reflected in the 'StartYear=' of 1944
 
The aircraft has been modified for carrier usage via data ini edits; the arrester hook exists 'virtually' via said edits. The skin and decaling are purely from my imagination (and laziness). The basic splinter camo pattern, I believe, makes perfect sense when seen against the gray sea background of the North Atlantic. Also, I got the reuse the decals I'd made perviously for other skin upgrades I've done for the WW2 Luftwaffe.
 
Please read the enclose readme for FULL install instructions, and some historical notes on the real aircraft. (plus an explination as to why there are 2 skin bmps...)
 
With thanks to Wolf257 for giving us these wonder WW2 birds; and the rest of the modders who allow us to relive (and remake) history
 
Enjoy!

This is a modification of Pasko's Ju-878B Stuka into the proposed version to be used on the aircraft carrier "Graf Zeppelin" and it's brothers.
 
This pak contains almost everything you'll need to create this new version, minus a few critical files that you'll need to copy from the original Ju-87. In other words:
 
THIS IS NOT A COMPLETE AIRCRAFT PACKAGE --

Curtiss-Wright Tomahawk, #54 Squadron, RAF, Battle of Britan, circa 1940
 
For SF, WoV & WoE ETO installs
 
What we have here is a skin representing RAF 54 Squadron, had it been given Tomahawks, instead of their real aircraft. This is a purely speculative skin, as the RAF didn't use any of their Tomahawks in the ETO in combat. (they went mostly to North Africa, me thinks), although several were retained for training purposes (mostly to train bomber gunners on shooting at enemy fighters).
 
This is a semi-complete aircraft, ready to unzip into your ETO/BoB or SWOTL install. All edits and modifications are already done (in most particular, the Ring-and-Bead gunsight, and associated cockpit mods). There are several data ini edits, mostly to operational years and loadouts, plus the addition of correctly placed running, formation, and landing lights.
 
** REMINDER: the 'Tomahawk.LOD' is NOT included, as per Wolf's wishes. You can get it in his WW2 Planes Pak available at CombatAce. Do so now, if you haven't already...you won't be sorry!!! **
 
Also included is a new 50 gallon drop tank, based on the IJAAF one from the Dev A-Teams WW2 Japanese aircraft. Full instructions on it's installation are also included.
 
Further, detailed instructions are in the enclosed readme. The only thing that's not, are the "Fictional Historical Notes". I just couldn't get my brain to work on those. Sorry folks...
So, please read the readme ... it'll make you life just a little bit easier

Focke Wulf Fw-190AT, Carrier-Based "What If..." for SF, WoV & WoE WW2 Installs:
 
This is a semi-complete aircraft mod based on Wolf257's FW-190A, converting it into a 'What If" version hypothetically used by the Kriegs Marine on it's aircraft carriers.
 
I say 'semi-complete', because as per Wolf's wishes, the aircraft lod is NOT included. You'll have to copy it over from one of the other FWs.
 
This skin has new, redrawn panel and rivet lines -- to which I claim NO historical accuracy! I don't know enough about the Luftwaffe (or especially in the un-real Kreigs Marine version) markings and such; so accept them for what they are, just eye candy.
You also get new Luftwaffe-style outlined aircraft number decals (by me!), and a nice KM nose badge decal as well.
 
The camo pattern is pretty much standard RLM colors, splinter type. The other markings are all from my rather vivid imagination; as these aircraft never existed (and could probably NEVER be made into a fully navalized version), I ask that you all accept this is the spirt it engenders ... pure fun and a little exploration in the "What If..." realms of the Second World War.
 
PLEASE read the read me for further, detailed instructions. There's also a "Fictional Historical Notes" section that might be fun to read!

Douglas DB-7A AdA
 
Decals and Decal Update
 
Whilst doing some research for another project, I stumbled across a long out of print copy of "Profile # 202: Douglas A-20 (7A-Boston III)" on pdf, and it had some really nice profiles and photos of French DB-7s from the Battle of France time period. Including placement of individual aircraft numbers.
 
I know the font isn't exactly the right one, but it's damn close! To make thinks easier, I've left all the rudder tags in, as I'm too lazy to remove them, and the file size (zipped) is still below 500k.

Focke Wulf Fw-190F Package for SF, WoV & WoE WW2 ETO/MTO/SWOTL Installs:
 
This package includes skin and ini mods of the original 190 into the =definitave= 190F ground attack/close support version.
 
This is a semi-complete package conatining all necessary parts to create the new aircraft =EXCEPT= the FW190.LOD. It's Wolf's wish that the lod not be distributed in new packages, but it's a simple matter to just copy it over from another Wurger.
All other parts; cockpit, all the inis, updated gunsight tga are included. I call it semi-complete package for the above reason, but NEW data, loadout, cockpit and main inis are included, due to several modifications I've effected. There are even new hangar and loading screens, specifically designed for this ground-attack version.
 
There are 2 skins in this package (hence the ETO/MTO tag at the top!):
 
9/SG4 based in France & Germany in the post D-Day time frame (attached to KG51);
I-SG4 based on Sardinia for use in the MTO/Italian theatre.
 
It is suggested that you do NOT mix these skins in the same theatre of operations, but rather 'split' the install between your ETO and MTO game setups.
 
---- Please note you MUST have the latest Weapons Pack for the WW2 Axis weapons ----
 
PLEASE read the enclosed readme for detailed install instructions, and other important notes. I wrote it...you better read it!!
Most importantly, information about the modified loadouts (see picture above for some idea of what you can get!)

Messerschmitt Bf-109G6 skin & ini tweeks for SF, WoV & WoE WW2 Installs:
 
-Modification of one of Wolf257's Messerschmitts....
This is a semi-complete package, creating another version of the famed Messerschmitt Bf-109. It contains just about everything needed.
I say semi-complete, because the aircraft LOD file is NOT included, as per his wishes, but everthing else is. You will also be adding 2 stand-in under-wing gun gondolas for the MK108 30mm and MK151 20mm cannons. I say stand-in, as the pod used is NOT the correct shape. So, you WILL be using the Weapons Editor to add the new gun pods. They use existing weapons, so there's no problems there. These are just here until a 3d modeler steps up and gives us the correct shapes for the 2 different pods.
 
The skin included represents JG53 in late 44/early 45, and has been enhanced with new panel, rivet lines, and new stenciling for the warning and info tags. My damged tgs and NEW 109G6 hangar and loadoing screens -ONLY available in this mod- are also included.

All other parts; cockpit, all the inis, updated gunsight tga are included. I've also added my 2 newest hangar and loading screens (also available in the FW-190A5 update pak)
 
This skin represents Fw-190A8R8 from 11/JG3 in the late 44/45 time frame in Western Europe/Germany.
 
I have tried to make it as accurate as possible, even to getting the proper RLM colors added to my swatch list. As best I could, I even added the little warning placards around the fuselage, wings and tail. Along with the 'eagle head' shape over the fuselage, now outlined in red for JG3.

Curtis-Wright Hawk 75A, French Armee De L'Air Package
for SF, WoV & WoE WW2 ETO Installs: 10/11/07
 
This is a complete package including ALL parts necessary to unzip and install a new, export version of Wolf's P-36 Mohawk, for the French Air Force from the start of WW2, to the time of the 'Sitzkrieg', and then into the Battle of France.
 
This package contains 7 skins for the following units:
 
N124
SPA67
SPA95
SPA153
SPA155
SPA160
AdA - generic skin, that was my original, with minimal markings. Just a "Plane Jane" so to speak ;)
 
There is a new French 7.5mm machine gun, courtesy of Heck, and a 50kg bomb by me, so you'll be using BOTH the gun and weapons editor to add them. (note: both these weapons were included in the Douglas DB-7 recently released)
 
I have to list the credits here for all to see..
 
Wolf257: for creating the aircraft and letting us mod it to death, also for providing the 3ds source file for modification!
Capun for making the my requested changes to the LOD -- I can't thank you enough, CP!!
'Heck Mitchell' for all the decal work & the French MGs -- sure made MY job eaiser

Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm Vought Corsair Mk.II mod for SF/WoV/WoE
 
*Note: this re-pack includes the new skin and fixed decal*
 
This is a modifcation of Wolf257's F4U Corsair into the Mark II version used by the British Royal Navy in the Atlantic. (minus the clipped wing tips - as that isn't modeled)
 
This is a semi complete aircraft mod, creating a country specific version for use in your World War 2: ETO installs ONLY!! As such, all the loadouts have been adjusted to fit Royal Navy aircraft of the time (or as best guess as my research has shown). This aircraft does NOT carry rockets. It does, however, have the inner under wing and centerline stations split into 3 groups, allowing for asymetrical loadout (as seen in several pictures I have)
 
!Semi-complete means the aircraft lod is NOT included - you'll have to transfer it over from one of your other Corsairs!
 
It represents aircraft from FAA 1842 Squadron embarked on HMS FORMIDABLE during the time frame of the attacks against the TIRPITZ.
 
You'll also find a new ETO Corsair hangar screen, I created just for this mod, and ONLY available with it.

Douglas A-20A 'Havoc' mod for SF/WoV/WoE PTO WW2 Installs
 
While working on upgrading the targets for the New Guinea map, I realized we didn't have any of the very early model Havoc's as used by General Kinney's 5th Air Force. To that end, this little mod was developed.
 
It represents A-20A aircraft from the 89th Bomb Squadron (Light) of the 3rd Attack Group, based at Port Moresby in mid-1942. I've tried to match, with what few photos are available, the serial numbers and nose arts. The first 7 serials =are= actual aircraft that served in the South West Pacific theatre, and I've matched as best I can the nose arts used. With the exception of "Rebel Rocket", whose serial number I was unable to find. Altogether, you'll have serials for ~28 aircraft, which is probably more than General Kinney had working at any given time, in that early stage of the war.
 
These aircraft, even though they still have the glass nose, have been given the 'strafer kit' of 4 fixed forward firing 50 caliber machine guns. The bomb aimer's station is not used on these aircraft; the windows have been painted over. The 2 cheek guns have been removed; I've found no data indicating they were used.
 
There are 2 ways I've designed for this to be used
 
1) Just use it as another skin for the A-20C/Boston III. or,
this is the best way, and how I built it...
2) Create a new aircraft for USAAF usage. All parts (inis, skin, etc), excepting the aircraft LODs and cockpit folder are supplied for you to do this. A new gunsight tga has also been supplied for use. There's even a new hangar screen, too.
 
 
= =You MUST have the latest Weapons Pak to get the WW2 Weapons and Guns!! ==

F-89H Scropion For SF/WoV/WoE:

It is a semi-complete package, including everything needed, -excepting the aircraft LOD files. You will have to transfer them over from your F-89D's.
 
Included are all the needed inis necessary to create the new aircraft. The skins included are for the 437th FIS based at Oxnard CA, circa 1957-ish, a repeat of the 75th FIS skin from Pesque Island, and a generic USAF natural metal.
 
All the skin bmps have been repainted, using new templates created by me, based off Volkjager's original skins. I've duplicated his original work, so all credit goes to him for skin creation...I've basically just redone them to make use of the new panel, rivet lines and new decals created by me for the serial and buzz numbers.
 
Included also is a brand new WoE-style Hangar screen, only available with this mod. Damage tgas are here as well.

MiG-21MF Fishbed-J 1024x Skin template:
 
These are new templates, based off and resized from the original little itty bity ones as originally issued by 3rd Wire. I call these "semi-HiRez, as they are now resized to 1024x1024...to me HiRez is anything OVER 2048!!
 
This set is designed to allow you to create new skins, either natural metal or camoflague types. I have NOT plotted out the overlaps for camos, but this can easily be done in you imaging program (Photoshop, Gimp, PSP, etc) by enlarging the camo skin bmps, and adding them as another layer. Repainting should be relatively easy after that.
 
I've redrawn, as best I can, all the panel, rivet lines, inspection plates, etc. Some of the rivet placement is a 'best guess', as the original size of the bmp was ONLY 256x256, and are badly blurred.
 
The base skin color is a 10-15% gray, which when adjusted for in the textureset ini, will look like semi-polished natural metal.
 
(the accompanying screenshot shows this new skin, with the 'Blue Bort' number decals)

build 03-02-2004 BETA 1
 
This is the original version of the F-89D, as created by MontyCZ ohh so long ago.
 
I'm uploading this, as to make the entire aircraft available, as there'd been a few problems in acquiring it.
Monty's original readme is included in the zip.
 
Enjoy!

F-86F-40 Sabre, 461st FDS, USAFE skin for SF/WoV/WoE
 
Just a simple, natural metal skin for Zur's Sabre as used by the 461st Fighter Day Squadron (ex-527th FBS) after the experiment with camoflague ended, and the aircraft were transfered to the new unit. Timeframe is approx 1956-58-ish.
 
Included are new serial and buzz number decals. The Black Bar/Diamonds is borrowed from USAFMTLs camo version for the 527th. The serial numbers are actual F-86F serials, but I claim no historical accuracy if they were used by this squadron.
 
See the enclosed readme for super easy install instructions (for a change!)
 
Happy Landings!
