Very striking fougamagister ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Phantom F-4D of the 494th TFS, 48th TFW based at RAF Lakenheath.

Sometime during the middle of 2009 I'm sure he stated that he was trying to get a fifth 'jet' game out by the end of the year (i.e. last year) so a fifth SF2 game wouldn't be a surprise and the scenario could be fictional - not that I approve of that sort of thing...

Gorgeous!

That looks really good! Chapeau!

Yes. Why not!

Keeping up with the neighbours... A 493rd TFS F-4D keeps an eye on two 492nd TFS machines, all from the 48th TFW based at RAF Lakenheath.

I just adder do it...

The rearmament of Paran continues...

McDonnell Douglas Phantom F.7B - No.41 Squadron, Royal Air Force.

No problem mate. It would have been nice to have seen the old Spey-powered Phantoms handed down. Despite it's inaccuracy, the Matchbox Phantom was a real favourite of mine (at least 34 years ago ) and I can remember making a Canadian one in overall Olibe Drab!

View File [Fictional] McDonnell Douglas Phantom RNZAF McDonnell Douglas Phantom F-4M_89 for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 This is a simple mod of the stock Third Wire Phantom FGR.2 (F-4M_75) to give a fictional 'Kiwi' Phantom with markings for No.2 squadron of the Royal New Zealand Air Force as they might have appeared during the 1990's. It goes without saying that you will need to have the F-4M_75 from SF2:Europe. BACKSTORY During the build up to Operation Corporate (the UK's military operation to retake the Falkland Islands) the UK Government were overwhelmed at the support given by the countries of the Commonwealth and, in particular, the response of the Australian and New Zealand Governments who provided ships to maintain the UK's NATO commitments and thus allow the Royal Navy to maximise the number of ships it could send to the South Atlantic. In the following years there were many reciprocal deals made and favours given to the Commonwealth nations (and even Chile!) and one such 'favour' was the transfer of 18 ex-RAF Phantom FGR.2's in 1988. The 18 FGR.2's, only recently withdrawn from RAF service, were ferried out to New Zealand (most still in their dirty grey camo scheme) during Operation Saddleback before arriving at Ohakea for refurbishment by a joint McDonnell Douglas/RNZAF team that saw the aircraft eventually emerge in a new 'Forest' style camo scheme and with digital INAS, upgraded RWR and new outer wing panels. Entering service with No.2 squadron in early 1989 (supposedly as the Karearea but they were always simply called Phantoms) the aircraft gave good service to the Royal New Zealand Air Force during the 1990's until finally being retired in December 2001 when, indeed, all 'Air Combat Force' aircraft were sadly withdrawn from service. INSTRUCTIONS 1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the F-4M_89 folder into your Aircraft folder. 2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the F-4M_89 folder into your Decals folder. 3. From the WEAPONS folder drag and drop the SUU-23G folder into your Weapons 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. Regards Spinners Version 2 - February 18th, 2024. Submitter Spinners Submitted 01/15/2010 Category What If Hangar

Amen to that bro'

Impressive!

McDonnell Douglas Phantom 'Kararea' of No.2 squadron, Royal New Zealand Air Force, June 1998.

I'll have to pass on this one as I don't use weapons editors or weapons packs and I'm a bit ropey on Soviet missiles

McDonnell Douglas Phantom F-4M of No.2 Squadron, Royal New Zealand Air Force.

Well, you could help us all out by telling us what aircraft

The only thing I'd add to EricJ's and FC's answer is to think of Specular as the amount of polishing or shine. I only mention this as I had no idea what it meant!

Go to any Third Wire F-4 Phantom and check out the relationship between the roles listed in the data.ini and the loadout.ini - all the answers are there
