Douglas A-4ES Skyhawk
Spinners replied to Spinners's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Sci-Fi/Anime/What If Forum
I'm aware of that mate and the fact that it was actually introduced in the 70's. I recall seeing a Viggen on the front cover of an Airfix magazine circa 74 and thinking wow that's striking but it'll be hard to paint! -

AKAIK there is not a decent template available. I've had a good look at the 5122 template in the SF1 section but it is mapped a bit differently to the SF2 version, the 'lines' layer is blurry when scaled up to 10242 and it mixes black and white on the same layer. -

I'm quite envious of anyone coming to the SF2 series and starting out, especially if they do it one title at a time in the order of release. It's a great series to discover. -

I reckon RAF 'Frightening' pilots would have loved your four Sidewinder loadout - especially if they were Limas (the missiles not the pilots). -
McDonnell Douglas C-12C (F-4E)
Spinners replied to ValAstur's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Sci-Fi/Anime/What If Forum
Great work! The F-4 holds a particular fascination for me* and it's great to see it in different colours and markings. * About 40 years ago I built a model of it and couldn't believe how powerful it looked. -

[Fictional] Lockheed F-104E Starfighter 'ANG'
Spinners posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
View File [Fictional] Lockheed F-104E Starfighter 'ANG' Lockheed F-104E for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 This is a very simple mod of the stock Third Wire F-104G to create a fictional USAF F-104E with markings for; 112th TFS of the Ohio ANG in a 'Euro One' style scheme. 162nd TFS of the Ohio ANG in a 'Euro One' style scheme. 198th TFS of the Puerto Rico ANG in a 'T.O. 1-1-4' style scheme. It goes without saying that you must have the F-104G LOD's in your install. BACKSTORY Whilst, officially, USAF interest in the F-104 programme began to ebb (leading to only 77 F-104C's being built) they kept a watchful eye on Lockheed's progress into transforming the original hot-rod interceptor fighter into a multi-mission tactical fighter for export to selected 'free world' nations. As negotiations with Federal Germany reached a critical phase in 1958 concern was expressed by the Bonn government that Lockheed were attempting to sell an aircraft no longer wanted by it's home nation. Lockheed cleverly took these concerns back to Washington and claimed that lucrative export orders were at jeopardy leading to a token order for a new version of the Starfighter for the USAF. Designated F-104E this new version broadly represented a halfway house between the F-104C and the forthcoming F-104G. Only 60 F-104E's were planned to be produced but the success of the F-104C flown by Capt Charles E. Tofferi in the 1962 William Tell tactical weapons meet, against strong competition from F-100 and F-105 pilots, led to continued low-rate production followed by a larger batch of 240 F-104E's making an eventual total of 336. F-104E's were deployed to Vietnam and surviving aircraft were refurbished for ANG use with the type being finally retired in 1988 when the 112th TFS re-equipped with F-16A's. INSTRUCTIONS 1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the F-104E folder into your Aircraft folder. 2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the F-104E folder into your main Decals folder. That's it! CREDITS Thanks to Third Wire for a great little game/sim. Thanks to Bobrock for uploading his superb F-104G templates to the community.
