Clean skins PM'd to you.

USAF A-8 Cyclone Close Air Support Aircraft, Germany 1987 (Foxmonter's IA-58a Pucara)

I don't know about the A-1. I'm using DAT's P-70B because it has the 4 .50cal guns in the nose, two in the cheeks and a 20mm belly gun pod. I hid the belly gun pod to make the A-2 model. It was the easiest way to make an almost real model. I liked seeing the antenna sticking out amongst the guns. The antennas and skin are the hard parts. Adding or subtracting available guns is easy. Of course data tweaks can get tricky. I can make whichever version I want for myself with what's available. Do what you think is best for a community release. P.S. Would you like the skin template for this plane?

RGR. Thanks.

Det A, 6th NFS P-70A-2 Nighthawk night fighter. BIG THANKS to: Raven for creating the antennas; tweaking the fm, avionics, fuel load and making this plane LOOK like a P-70. Wrench for a ton of technical information and suggestions. Wilches for finding the unit art work, emblems, nose art, etc. Skin by me. P-70 by DAT.

Wrench, That's the pit I'm using now. It came with the plane.

Raven, I looked at the B-26K cockpit. Nice and with radar, but a bit to one side and too new. Will have to simulate a radar operator feeding the pilot info and just use the onscreen radar. Although there is a F-86D/K/L cockpit mod with radar. Unfortunately the scope rubber hood blocks the view of the scope. Also a bit too new for this bird. Wrench, Too bad about your art work. Love R.G.Smith's work, along with Robert Taylor's, Nicholas Trudgian, Craig Kodera, .... and too many to mention.

Honduran Air Force Canadair Sabre (By special request by Stratos.)

With Wilches' find on the nose.

Raven, That 'work' word has a revolting familiarity to it. I associate it with getting up while it's still dark and having to shave. Disturbing memories. Wilches, Thanks for the links. That second one has a great profile of the most common picture/model on the net. Got the panther logo, too. Wrench, I know I won't get this perfect and the antenna's and guns won't all match up, but still want to see what can be done. So, if they didn't have radar scopes, how did the radars work, in a nut shell?

Raven, Thanks. Just something I've been wanting to play with for some time. It's for the DAT models. They just don't look right without the nose antenna. Wrench, I know they didn't see a lot of action, much like my early teen years, but there are 2 planes parked at DAT that could use a little TLC and updating. I trust your knowledge on these and if Raven can turn it into a fake pilot, so let it be written.... Probably wont get this perfect but thought I'd mess around with it a bit and see what turns out. Although there are many sites on the internet that reference the P-70, most is just repeated info and not very informative. Would like the nose art with the black panther laying on the branch but can't seem to find it any where online to get a copy for a decal. Wilches, The two DAT models have gun pods under the belly as well as nose guns. Different configurations from the A to B models. Don't know if those are the gun pods you're referring to but at least there's something there to play with. The radar and cockpit with radar scope would be welcome. Any and all help is appreciated.

File Name: FJ-3M_Fury_Pack_1_for_SF1 File Submitter: Geary File Submitted: 18 April 2015 File Category: F-86 Saber/FJ-2/3 Fury Skins FJ-3M Fury Skins Pack 1 for SF1 You will need the columns5's FJ-3M Fury mod to Zur's F-86 Sabre for these skins here: http://combatace.com/files/file/525-fj-3m-fury-addon/ Five FJ-3M Fury clean skins: 1 = VF84 - FJ-3M - Repaint of pappychksix/Wrench's VF-84 skin. 1 = VMF232 - FJ-3M - Semi-Fictional Repaint of David "USAFMTL" Slavens' FJ-4B DBF skin. 1 = VMF312- FJ-3M - Repaint of pappychksix/Wrench's VMF-312 skin. 1 = USN Blue Camo - Fictional - FJ-3M - Repaint of Mitch's F-86F_German skin. 1 = VMF122 - FJ-2 - Semi Fictional Repaint of VMF122 standalone skin I have but I don't know where I got it or who the original author is. If anyone know's whose skin this is, please tell me so I can credit them. VMF-122 actually used this skin on their FJ-3's. I wanted an FJ-2 Fury to compliment the Navy Blue Phantoms, Banshees, Skyraiders, etc. of the Korean War era. So I downgraded a FJ-3M to an FJ-2. DECALS: These skins use a mixture of default and other Fury skin decals. As I can't release other peoples decals without their consent, you will need to find some of the decals in other Fury releases. PM me if you need help with these. For the VF-84 and VMF-312 skins, use the decals from pappychksix's Fury Package here: http://combatace.com/files/file/2255-fury-package/ ... OR ... Wrench's SF2 FJ-3M Package here: http://combatace.com/files/file/12233-fj-3m-fury-by-zur-and-co-for-sf2/ For the VMF232 skin I have NO idea where I got the decals to use for this skin. But probably from pappychksix/Wrench's Fury packs. Choose your own. For the USN Blue Camo fictional skin, use which ever declas you like. I used TW default decals for my skin and probably some from pappychksix/Wrench's Fury packs. For the VMF122 skin ... I have a stand alone VMF122 skin I repainted. I think I used the decals from this original skin. I used VMF232 numbers, but you can use whichever you wish. The problem is the original skin doesn't have a readme and I can't find where I got it from. Anyone who know's the original author please pm me where it can be found so I can post that information here. These skins are fairly clean as I'm not very good at weathering so feel free to add your own dirt. To repaint some of these skins such as the VF-84, VMF232 and VMF312, I had to paint over the existing paint to eliminate the old panel lines and rivets. Unfortunately, this means I also painted over the great weathering on these skins. I apologize to the artists of the original skins. They were made using my F-86 Sabre/FJ-3 Fury templates. They are in .bmp format, 2048x2048 for SF1 but they might work in SF2 with a bit of tweaking. You can of course make them smaller if your computer can't handle the large size. If you have trouble making them smaller, pm me and I'll see what I can do. There is included a clean drop tank skin for those that wish to use it. Just drop it into your existing Tank_F86 weapons folder. Overwrite when asked. Also a clean skin for the FJ-2 Navy Blue VMF-122 Tank-FJ2. INSTALLATION: Unzip to a folder/place of your choice. Copy, Move, Drag-n-Drop or do whatever you wish to get the skins folders into your FJ-3M aircraft folder. If you want the blue FJ-2 VMF-122 drop tank, you will have to add the Weapondata entry to your install's weapondata.ini and run the weapon editor. Drop the Tank_FJ2.bmp and Tank_FJ2.lod into your weapons folder. They were inspired by: Dave Wrench pappychksix column5 paulopanz ravenclaw_007 Tazkiller DanW howling1 suhsjake Mitch Zur and MANY others who've contributed skins and mods to this wonderful plane.

File Name: 3 Fictional Sabre/Fury Planes for SF1 File Submitter: Geary File Submitted: 18 April 2015 File Category: F-86 Saber/FJ-2/3 Fury Skins 2 Fictional Sabres and 1 Fictional Fury for SF1 You will need columns5's FJ-3M Fury from here: http://combatace.com/files/file/525-fj-3m-fury-addon/ This pack contains files to convert the FJ-3M Fury to: 1 - A USN FJ-3B Attack Fury, a fictionalized version of the real USN FJ-4B Fury ground attack variant of the FJ-4 Fury - capable of carrying AGM-12B Bulpup Air-to-Ground missiles; Aero 7D_FFAR Pods; AIM-9B Air-to-Air Missles; various and sundry bombs, rocketpods, etc.... 2 - An F-86B Attack Sabre. The USAF version of the above USN FJ-3B ground attack jet. 3 - An F-86G Sabre. The USAF version of the FJ-3M - 4x20mm nose guns and 2xAIM9B Air-to-Air missiles. You will need to install the FJ-3M for each of the above planes you want to install. If you want to install all three planes, you will need to install the FJ-3M three times. INSTALLATION: Install the FJ-3M once and rename the installed FJ-3M folder to FJ-3B. Install another FJ-3M and rename that folder to F-86B. Install one more FJ-3M and rename that folder to F-86G. Drop the corresponding folders from this pack into the newly created FJ-3B, F-86B and F-86G folders and overwrite the old files when asked. To add extra pylons for the FJ-3B and F-86B I used ravenclaw_007's execellent F-86 Bomb Rack weapon from his Canadair CL-13B Mk6 Sabre early or Canadair CL-13B Mk6 Sabre late. They can be found here: http://combatace.com/files/file/7387-canadair-cl-13b-mk6-sabre-late/ and here: http://combatace.com/files/file/7384-canadair-cl-13b-mk6-sabre-early/. Either one will do as they both have the F-86 Bomb Rack. They are also both execllent planes and if you haven't flown them you are missing out on two of the best F-86 versions available at CA. You must install the bomb rack as a weapon. The necessary lod's, ini's, weapon data entries and instructions are in ravenclaw_007's download. You will need to ensure you have the necessary weapons, ie. AGM-12B, AIM-9B, Aero 7D_FFAR Pod, etc. Look in the *_loadout.ini files to see what weapons are needed. Most are found in common weapons packs or are already default weapons. Included in this pack are the relevant .ini files to convert the FJ3M. Also included are an FJ-3B skin for VA-146, a real FJ-4B unit and two skins for the the F-86B/G models. VA-146 skin was created by me. The F-86 SEA skin was inspired by Dave's/Wrench's SEA F-86 skin. Decals are, for the most part, default. They will depend on which SF1 install you put these planes in. You may end up changing some of the numbers. Thanks to Dave "USAFMTL" Slavens for the idea. Years ago he created an FJ-4B fury from a FJ-3M. I found it at AVSIM while browsing the ancient Strike Fighters section. Thanks to ravenclaw_007 for the F-86 Bomb Rack that makes the 'B models possible. Thanks to Zur and column5 for the FJ-3M Fury. And thanks to all those that have inspired and coached me to be able to do this. If I forget or miss anyone who deserves credit for anything I release, I apologize.

You might be right. There are a few versions floating around. But the only SF1 FJ-3M I found in the SF1 download section is the one I pointed to. Seems there used to be more, but maybe just my failing memory. Seems to me I have a few versions from SF1 through SF2. Trying to keep track of the correct skin for the correct plane gets confusing. For instance, I have SF1 skins for the F-86's with the gunports cutout of the lod. No painted-on gunports for those planes. But some SF1 Fury's don't have the gunports cut into the lod. So I have skins for those with gunports painted on. Then there are the different SF2 planes with the same problems, etc... Either way, great planes and I get a-hell-of-a-lot of enjoyment out of them. Thanks for them. Anything new in the wind?

Took me a minute to figure out what plane this is.

If you keep having birthdays you'll have to go by 'Older Diego.' Hope you enjoyed the day.

Thanks, I was afraid I'd have to make my own...eventually.

Thanks. Was dreading making my own.
