Props and SF2 - getting better all the time. Very nice and great skins too.

Great work Kevin.

>>>INSERT JOKE ABOUT IT NOT BEING ROCKET/MISSILE SCIENCE<<< I don't think there is an AGM-152 in SF2 so can we assume it's an add-on? Where is the skin for it and what is it called? Open up the AGM-152 LOD and see what skin is being called for.

Only time for a couple of quick single-missions tonight but it's outstanding! Congratulations to everyone on the Tomcat Team.

Looking forward to these - thanks in advance!

View File [Fictional] McDonnell Douglas F-4E 'ADC' USAF McDonnell Douglas Phantom F-4E 'ADC' for Strike Fighters 2 This is a simple mod of the stock F-4E_72 to make a fictional interceptor version of the Phantom for service with the USAF in the 1973 to 1998 timeline. 'What if' markings for four ANG squadrons are included; 1. 111th Fighter Interceptor Squadron - Texas ANG 2. 119th Fighter Interceptor Squadron - New Jersey ANG 3. 186th Fighter Interceptor Squadron - Montana ANG 4. 198th Fighter Interceptor Squadron - Puerto Rico ANG BACKSTORY During early 1970 a USAF review of America's air defence assets highlighted the increasing obsolescence of several aircraft including the F-101, F-102 and F-104 and whilst early F-4C Phantoms were trickling down to the ANG units McDonnell Douglas could see an opportunity to sell an optimised 'Air Defense' version of the F-4E to the USAF to swiftly and cost-effectively modernise a large proportion of Aerespace Defense Command. During this time McDonnell Douglas had studied various single-seat or stripped-down versions of the F-4 for the German Air Force but for the USAF they proposed a version of the slatted F-4E with all air-to-ground capability removed, slightly more powerful 'clean burn' J79 engines, simplified air-to-air only radar and the new solid-state AIM-7F Sparrow missile offering longer range with its two-stage rocket motor. By this time the massive production run of the F-4 had meant that the fly-away unit cost for this simplified version of the F-4E made it one of the cheapest Phantoms ever and such was the confidence that the USAF had in McDonnell Douglas that in March 1971 they simply asked for a fixed-price quotation for 300 F-4E 'ADC' aircraft and ordered them in April 1971! First flown in June 1972 the F-4E 'ADC' were delivered in a smart and glossy 'air defense' grey scheme and entered service with the 198th Fighter Interceptor Squadron of the Puerto Rico ANG in February 1973 replacing the F-104C's and F-104D's of that unit. Sadly, eight of the 198th's Phantoms were destroyed in a terrorist attack at Muniz ANGB in January 1981 and the unit operated several 'standard' F-4E's until 'ADC' versions could be allocated to them. INSTRUCTIONS 1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the F-4E_ADC folder into your Aircraft folder. 2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the F-4E_ADC folder into your Decals folder. That's it! CREDITS As always, thanks to Third Wire for a great little game/sim. And, finally, thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.

'Blue Sky Country' FTW!

Well, TK did state that a fictional scenario was on the menu....

Unfortunately, this is not the first time that this has happened. A few years ago some British WW1 graves in France were painted with slogans something like, "take your rotting meat home".

A good tournament so far! I'm Welsh but not one of the 'anyone but England' mob so come on England!!

There's no such thing as "the wrong one in the wrong sim". It's all good, it all works!

Two words... PROPER TEMPLATES!!!!
