SF2 F8F-1 Bearcat, VNAF 12/31/2025 = For SF2, Any and All, But Designed for SF2:V = Modifications to Geo's Bearcat recreate those as used by the (South) Vietnamese Air Force from the mid 1950s thru the early 1960s. This is a stand-alone, nationalized aircraft mod, with just about everything you'll need. This mod has been 'salvaged' from my unfinished "Vietnam 48" mod (hence the "_FN" suffix, as it was originally for the French). You'll have 2 new skins, created from Geary's excellent template: VNAF = Glossy Sea Blue, <1954 (received from the French) VNAF2 = Natural Metal(ish) Finish <1960 Both skins represent the VNAF's 1st Fighter Squadron. Most markings are decals. National emblems are, however painted on Decal randomization is TRUE for all the serial numbers. There are 26 for each skin. The SF2 date switch is active, and will automatically shift to the NMF skin in 1960 The canopy opens with the Standard Animation Keystroke, Shift/0 (zero). Pilot figures, and WW2 period bombs and drop tanks are included. If you have the Full 7 Merged (with both Expansion Packs), you can change the AN-M64 500 pounders (aka: 500lb_bomb) for the stock 3W version (M64). The 5" HVARs are stock 3W items. You'll also be adding a new engine sound, and this will need to be added to the Sound list ini, so have that extracted (if you haven't already), and in the /Flight folder in you SF2:V Mods Folder. As extra special end-of-the-year-gifts, I've included a modified main ini for the stock VietnamSEA terrain, backdating it to start in 1955, after the withdrawal of French forces, and the partition of the country into North and South. AND!!!! as an Super Extra Added Bonus (tm) You get a new(ish) generic loading screen, for general global use (when no other exists). On the Aircraft Selection Drop Down menu, you'll see F8F-1 Bearcat (VNAF) As is always recommended, unzip to a temp folder or your desktop to give easy access to the rest of this readme for it's install instructions. Please read the Notes section for other possibly useless information, and (hopefully) full credits. Please also take note of changes in the Standard Disclaimer in the "Legal BS" section at the bottom. Wrench Kevin Stein
