  6. View File B-42A Mixmaster for Strike Fighters 2 Douglas B-42A Mixmaster for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 This is the B-42 Mixmaster by veltro2k with some fictional 'in service' operational USAAF/USAF B-424A schemes using Third Wire's date switch to give you the USAAF starbar in 1944 to 1947 and then the USAF starbar (and nation name) from 1948 onwards. You can fly the prototype in 1944 and for gameplay reasons we've placed it in service from 1945 onwards with service years allowing for use in the Korean War (check out the night scheme) and all operational schemes have new nose art decals. The unique feature of the B-42 is, of course, it's twin bubble canopies and this caused some problems when 'in cockpit' as panning to starboard cannot accurately show a real world view of the right-hand canopy, the co-pilot and his cockpit so it's a bit of a compromise which we trust you will accept. If anyone can suggest any improvements in the cockpit view then let us know. It's likely some of you will want to do your own skins for favourite squadrons or perhaps for export versions so a template is included and we'd love to see your results! The B-42A Mixmaster is brought to you by; B-42 3D Model - veltro2k B-42A Skins/Decals - Spinners B-42A FM and ini's - Wrench INSTRUCTIONS 1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the B-42A folder into your Aircraft folder. 2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the B-42A folder into your Decals folder. 3. From the WEAPONS folder drag and drop the enclosed folders into your Weapons folder. 4. From the SOUNDS folder drag and drop the enclosed sound file into your Sounds folder. That's it! CREDITS As always, thanks to Third Wire for a great little game/sim. Huge thanks to veltro2k for not only tackling this aircraft but also cranking in improvements along the way. Thanks to russouk2004 for his help with the 3D model. Thanks also to Capun for the Do-335 used as the damaged model. Thanks to Wrench for his work on the flight model and ini work. And, finally, thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community. Regards Spinners Version 1 - 21/08/2020 Submitter Spinners Submitted 08/21/2020 Category What If Hangar  
  7. Thanks. Actually all the tga's are there but we changed a mesh name quite late in the day. Mue's Viewer shows the decal but it doesn't appear in game.

  8. View File [Fictional] RAF SEPECAT Jaguar FGR.3 SEPECAT Jaguar FGR.3 for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 This is a simple mod of the excellent 'The Mirage Factory' Jaguar GR.1 to give a 'what if' Jaguar FGR.3 tactical fighter with markings for No.45 and No.58 squadrons of No.38 Group, RAF Strike Command. This revision now also includes a desert camo skin for No.112 squadron and uses a revised 3D model. BACKSTORY In 1974 a cancelled export order for 50 Jaguar Internationals left the SEPECAT consortium with a headache as many 'long lead' items had already been ordered and assembly was already underway on the first 12 airframes. At this time the RAF were keen to order more Jaguars to form a second wing of No.38 Group, RAF Strike Command and, with the delays in the Tornado production programme meaning a shortage of work at BAC's Warton factory, BAC pushed the Labour government into accepting a deal for all 50 aircraft. Some consideration was given to standardising the aircraft to match the RAF's GR.1 force but the uprated Adour engines and different avionics saw the aircraft confusingly designated as the Jaguar FGR.3. Entering service in early 1977 the Jaguar FGR.3's served with No.45 and No.58 squadrons as part of No.38 Group and also with a reformed No.112 Squadron detached to RAF Near East Air Force. The FGR.3's uprated Adour engines and early introduction of overwing missile rails made them something of an elite element within the RAF's Jaguar force and they were deployed to many hot-spots around the world until their somewhat premature retirement in 2002. INSTRUCTIONS 1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the JaguarFGR3 folder into your Aircraft folder. 2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the JaguarFGR3 folder into your Decals folder. 3. Empty the contents of the WEAPONS folder into your Weapons folder 4. Empty the contents of the PILOTS folder into your main Pilots folder. 5. From the SOUNDS folder drag and drop the Adour sound file into your Sounds folder. That's it! CREDITS As always, thanks to Third Wire for a great little game/sim. Massive thanks to everyone at 'The Mirage Factory' (RIP Oli). Special thanks to sundowner for both skins used in this revised upload and also for his permission to use his revised LOD with built-in drop tanks. And, finally, thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community. Regards Spinners Version 2 - 23/08/2020 Submitter Spinners Submitted 11/28/2009 Category What If Hangar  
  9. Ooops! Should have read the dress code...
  10. You'll need to direct that to veltro2k but it's not as similar to the Mixmaster as some folk might think (meaning it's almost a start from scratch job).
  11. SEPECAT Jaguar FGR.3's - No.45 and No.58 Squadrons, RAF Strike Command, 1988 In 1974 a cancelled export order for 35 Jaguar Internationals left the SEPECAT consortium with a headache as many 'long lead' items had already been ordered and assembly was already underway on the first 12 airframes. At this time the RAF were keen to order more Jaguars to form a second wing of No.38 Group, RAF Strike Command and, with the delays in the Tornado production programme meaning a shortage of work at Warton, BAC pushed the Labour government into accepting a deal for all 35 aircraft. Consideration was given to standardising the aircraft to match the RAF's GR.1 force but the uprated Adour engines and different avionics saw the aircraft designated Jaguar FGR.3. Entering service in late 1976 the Jaguar FGR.3's served with just two squadrons, No.45 and No.58 who had previously operated the Hunter F.6 and FGA.9 to provide a pool of ground-attack pilots for the Jaguar force. The FGR.3's uprated Adour engines and early introduction of overwing missile rails made them something of an elite element in the RAF's Jaguar force and they were deployed to many hot-spots around the world until their somewhat premature retirement in 2001.
