Deutschland Terrain Version 1.0 (Germany for SFP1/WoV)
Version 1.0
This is the first release of Deutschland terrain. It is freeware and intended as stop gap filler till "Wings over Europe" will be available outside the USA.
It is made for SFP1, but can also used for WOV.
*In comparision to beta v 0.75 i included some more ground tiles (Towns at rivers, 3 new tiles) The map is reworked a little bit.
*The Rhine Valley between Koblenz and Bingen is now flowing more or less into the valley and not more over the hills. It is not perfect, but much better than before. (23 new tiles) It is a funny place for hedgehopping. In a further update i will include the castles for which the Rhine Valley is famous for.
*The number of target areas is now 248 instead 186 in Betav0.75.
*New targets are civil ports in the GDR and the FRG, Antenna fields in the GDR. 2 naval bases in the East and one in the West (At this place i want to say thank you Capun and Mike Whl who gave me the permission to use their Osa and Koni ships as static targets)
*I placed some ponton complexes on the map (Again thank you to Polak, who mad the pontons originally for my Israel terrain)
*West Germany got a SAM defence
*additional east german Industry is added
*some big barrack complexes are placed at the map, including one of the longest buildings in the world Prora which you will find near the big eastern bay at island of Rügen
*The CoolingTowers of the powerplants now have smoke. (Thanks to Darreck for the CoolingTowers) The smoke is not yet perfect (The exhaust time is to short) But i hope that this problem can be solved.
*I found some bugs, like the Hawk launcher or Shilkas at the runway and solved the problem. Some files for troubleshooting you find in the subfolder "Special" in Deutschland folder
With this release of Deutschland terrain this terrain is far away to be complete. Germany is a so heavy populated contry that the number of target areas could be increased to 1000 or 10.000 and you would not have all possible targets.
I have concentrated my work on the east of Germany, the former GDR. I also invested a lot of time in the northern part of West Germany and the Rhine Valley, the former FRG. Bavaria and Thuringia are nearly untouched. You see, there is still a lot to do.
If you have remarks or comments, please post it at SimHQ forum or Combatace forum.
Finally i want to say thank you to all who supported Deutschland terrain with files and hints. And of course a big thank you to TK and his team for the development of the SFP1
sim family.
I hope you enjoy Deutschland terrain

Do you really can fly and fight with a F-16?
By Gepard in User Made Missions
Do you really can fly and fight with a F-16A?
============================================
28 gun only dogfight missions
I.
The F-16A Netz is one of my favorit planes in WOI and i know that a lot of people love the F-16A too. I fought a lot of dogfights and scored more than 100 kills with it.
Then i asked me, wheter i won the dogfights by i my flying abilities or by the superior missiles? When i was shot down by a MiG-29 i asked me wheter the enemy plane was better or only the missile.
To get a correct answer i thought a gun only dogfight will show the truth.
So i started to make a seria of dogfight missions between the F-16A Netz and the planes of the period. The F-4E, F-5E, F-14A, F-15A, F-16A, F-20, MiG-21MF, MiG-21bis, MiG-23MF, MiG-23ML, MiG-29A, Mirage 5D, Mirage 2000EM and Kfir C2 i took as enemy in 1 vs 1 gun only engagements. Later, if 1vs1 started to become boring, i made 16 planes air combats. In the most cases it are 4 F-16A vs 12 enemies. For planes with comparable flight performance, like the F-15A or MiG-29A, i decided to make 8 vs 8 engagements.
For me its a big fun and it is challenging, even the hunt on MiG-21MF or Mirage 5 can become difficult and dangerous if enough enemies are around you.
And i hope you enjoy the mission pack too.

F-113A Retaliator
By Gepard in What If Hangar
F-113A Retaliator (What if) v1.1
*****************************************************
This mod is made for SF2NA. It based on Julhelms RA-5C Vigilante.
----------------------------------------------------------
I. History
In 1960 the North American company decided to develope a fighter version of the A-5 Vigilante attack plane. The project got the designation NR-349 Retaliator.
The NR-349 Retaliator was North American's proposal for a high-performance fighter aircraft for the US military as a variant of the A-5 with three engines. A third General Electric J79 was in the shaft between the other two engines with two narrow air inlets offset backwards above the inlets of the other engines. The aircraft was to be armed with six AIM-54 Phoenix at sub-fuselage stations. The US Air Force was not interested in, but the US Navy.
The Retaliator should act as fleet defender, to intercept incoming long range bombers before they could fire their missiles on US carriers. The US Navy demanded to replace the third engine by an increased internal fuel capacity.
Four prototypes where built and the decission was made to reduce the number of Phoenix missiles.
So the F-113A Retaliator came into serial production in 1965. 1966 the first units of the uS Navy got the new fighter plane.
The Retaliator was used for more than 10 years. Then it was replaced by the F-14A Tomcat.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Finally some words:
The F-16A arab nations is my thank you for Team Viper who made the most job for this bird. I only gave them the colors of the egyptian and jordan air forces and tweaked it a little bit, so that they now flying for the red side. I also played a little bit with the cockpit data and made finaly a new loading screen. But without the great skills of Team Viper F-16A arab nations would never have born.
And here the names of the guys who made the most of the job (99%):

F-16B Blk 5 Netz Heyl Ha Avir (IAF) for WOI
By Gepard in F-16 Fighting Falcon / F-2A
F-16B Netz Blk 5 for WOI
Heyl Ha Avir (Israeli Air Force)
-------------------------------------------------
I. This mod is written for WOI
--------------------------------------------------------------
II. The Heyl Ha Avir was the first Air Force who used the F-16B double seater in majority not as training aircraft, but as strike plane. The israeli name of this bird is Netz what means Falcon.
---------------------------------------------------------------
III. Credits: I used the F-16B_Netz.lod of TeamViper (USAFMTL, Swede,Wpnsgt etc.), added TK's original Flightmodel of the F-16A and modded it to fit the F-16B Netz data. The F-16B Netz now handles very well, take of speed at apporx 300 kph, landing speed approx 280 kph, 360° curve at 1000 meters with start speed 800 kph in 20 seconds.
Differences to the original model are also, that i made the nose gear stearing and the Chaff and Flares are shooting now upward. etc pp... Unfortunatly i was unable to make the ailerons moving. I tried it and it worked well, but the flaps started sometimes to flicker. Thatswhy i removed the working ailerons again.
I implemented TK's original cockpit and avionics and modded it a little bit so that the Radar screen now shows the naming of the different modes (not more 3 times AIR, but RWS,TWS,ACM,LOCK).
All this parts i put together to have a israeli F-16B Netz.
To say it clearly. I made only the finish. The credit of 99% of this bird belongs to team Viper and TK. The other 1% is mine.

F-16C Barak Heyl Ha Avir (IAF) for WOI
By Gepard in F-16 Fighting Falcon / F-2A
F-16C Heyl Ha Avir (Israeli Air Force) for WOI
-------------------------------------------------
I. This mod is written for WOI
--------------------------------------------------------------
II. This is a mod to represent the F-16C, as it is flow by the IAF.
---------------------------------------------------------------
III. I used the great F-16A_blk15-belge LOD of the Mirage Factory (thanks for the permission to use it), added TK's original flightmodel of the F-16A and modded it to fit the F-16C data, gave the flares and chaffs an other ejection direction, made the frontgear stearing etc. Then i modded TK's original cockpit and avionics in that way, that now BVR missiles are available. The Radar modi now are displayed in the radar screen (not only Air anymore, but RWS,TWS,ACM,LOCK)
Then i asked Alejandro, wheter he could make a new lod file which contains antennas and a modified tail section similar to PeacePumas chilean F-16C. He made it for me, gave it a different color, so that i was able included it in the israeli bird. Finally i took Wilcos F-16 skin of the 115. Squadron, modded it a little bit.
All this parts i puzzeled together to have a israeli F-16C Barak. To say it clearly: I made only the finish, only approx. 1% of the job. The other 99% are made by Mirage Factory, TK, Alejandro and Wilco. And they did a great job!

F-31G Wirbelwind
By Gepard in Fictional Aircraft, Experimental and UAV's
F-31G Wirbelwind for SFP1,WOE,WOV,WOI
====================================
I. This is my mod of Dels F-31A MustangII for use in the first generation sims SFP1,WOE,WOI,WOV
II. I decided to make a german bird (thatswhy G for Germany), because the X-31 project was mostly financed by the germans. I also decided to make a more real life combat airplane instead of a test bird. So i switched of the Trust Vector plates and deleted a lot of ammo capabilities, reduced the thrust of the engine. Changed the afterburner emitter. Made some small changes in Flightmodel. I also choosed the F-15 cockpit which is standard in WOE and WOI.
Some changes were neccessary because some features not worled properly in WOE, WOI, SFP1.
III. All credits belongs to Dels who made this fantastic bird or SFP2

ROCKWELL/MBB F-31A MUSTANG II Ver 1.0
--------------------------------------------------------
By Dels
Dated 25th January 2010
********************************************************
MAY BE USED IAW COMBATACE FREEWARE LICENSING POLICY
http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showtopic=26131
********************************************************
DISCLAIMER
----------
This is a third party add on of the F-31A using a model
and cockpit created by me.
It is designed for and works in the SF2 series of games.
VERSION NOTES
-------------
I have created this F-31A as if it went into production
and service during the 90's. So it is the F-31A (not X-31)
and the skin is for the 421st TFS, 388th TFW 'Black Widows'
based at Hill AFB.
The X-31 had no official or un-official nickname so I gave
it the name "Mustang II". If you don't like it, feel free to
change the AircraftFullName= in the F-31A.ini file.
The cockpit of the X-31 was a little too ancient, so I
modified my F-23A cockpit for this F-31A. This is also
what I would expect from an aircraft of the mid 90's.
The cockpit has visible pilot legs which were loaned to
me by Klavs81, so all the credit to him for those.
I have taken a bit of artistic licence as not a whole lot
of information was available on the aircraft.
In addition to wing and centerline drop tanks, I have also
included a special F-31 Dual Rail Adapter (DRA) for use with
IRM's and AHM's.
INSTALLATION
------------
Very simple, extract the files from the archive to your
C:\Users\*NAME*\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 folder.
Next,
You will need to add the following to your Squadronlist.ini
file which should be in your Flight AND Pilot Data folders.
This is so the Unit Names show up. (*NOTE* This is not
essential). Make sure the XXX is replaced with the next
number in sequence in your file:
[squadronXXX]
Name=421FS
DisplayName=421st TFS Black Widows
Nation=USAF
*NOTE* If you do not have a Squadronlist.ini file in your Flight
folder you will need to extract it from the MissionData001.CAT
file in your Flight folder using the CatPack utility.
That's it.
You will need Diego's MODUSAF pilot skin for the pilot,
or you can use whatever skin you like by editing the
F-31A_Data.ini file.
REMOVAL
-------
Reverse the above steps.

F-5GN
F-5GN Sea Tiger (What if)
*****************************************************
This mod is made for SF2.
----------------------------------------------------------
I. History (fiction)
In 1969 there were decisive elections in West Germany. In reality, the Social Democrats won.
A new foreign policy followed and a period of reduction of tensions between East and West.
WHAT IF, the other side had won?
What if the conservatives had won and Franz Joseph Strauß (an old bavarian Commie eater) would have become Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany?
And so it starts.
In 1969 Strauß was elected as Chancellor. A period of rising tensions between East and West
started. To protect the sea lanes between Europe and America the west german parliament Bundestag decided to build up a west german carrier force consisting of 3 carriers.
The american gouvernment was pleased and offered to sell 3 carriers of the Essex class (subclass Ticonderoga).
The first ship which was handed over was CV-34 Oriskany in 1969. Renamed in R-22 Theodor Heuss it was core of the first west german carrier group. 1973 CV-38 Shangri-La became R-23 Heinrich Lübke (later renamed in Walter Scheel) and two years later CV-45 Valley Forge became R-24 Gustav Heinemann.
The americans offered A-4 Skyhawk and F-8 Crusader as planes for the carrier group. The Bundesmarine accepted the A-4, but rejected the Crusader, because the Bundesmarine wanted a more multi role capable plane, not only a pure fighter.
At this moment Northrop entered the competition and offered a navalised version of the brand new F-5E Tiger. Under the designation F-5GN (German Navy) it should be produced in America and Germany. The west german government accepted the offer and the serial production of the F-5GN started. During flight tests on the way the US Marines decided, that it would be a good idea to replace their old F-8 Crusaders with F-5GN planes. So the F-5GN became a Marine plane.
Later, when the Marines retired their attack carriers the surviving F-5GN were transfered to Top Gun school.
The F-5GN stayed in west german service till 1995. Then it was replaced by F-31 Mustang II.

F-5GN (Marines)
F-5GN(Marines) Sea Tiger (What if)
*****************************************************
This mod is made for SF2.
----------------------------------------------------------
I. History (fiction)
In 1969 there were decisive elections in West Germany. In reality, the Social Democrats won.
A new foreign policy followed and a period of reduction of tensions between East and West.
WHAT IF, the other side had won?
What if the conservatives had won and Franz Joseph Strauß (an old bavarian Commie eater) would have become Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany?
And so it starts.
In 1969 Strauß was elected as Chancellor. A period of rising tensions between East and West
started. To protect the sea lanes between Europe and America the west german parliament Bundestag decided to build up a west german carrier force consiting of 3 carriers.
The american gouvernment was pleased and offered to sell 3 carriers of the Essex class (subclass Ticonderoga).
The first ship which was handed over was CV-34 Oriskany in 1969. Renamed in R-22 Theodor Heuss it was core of the first west german carrier group. 1973 CV-38 Shangri-La became R-23 Heinrich Lübke (later renamed in Walter Scheel) and two years later CV-45 Valley Forge became R-24 Gustav Heinemann.
The americans offered A-4 Skyhawk and F-8 Crusader as planes for the carrier group. The Bundesmarine accepted the A-4, but rejected the Crusader, because the Bundesmarine wanted a more multi role capable plane, not only a pure fighter.
At this moment Northrop entered the competition and offered a navalised version of the brand new F-5E Tiger. Under the designation F-5GN (German Navy) it should be produced in America and Germany.

Later, when the Marines retired their attack carriers the surviving F-5GN were transfered to Top Gun school.
1973 the government of South Vietnam demanded more F-5E Tigers to fight the communist forces. Because there was a shortage of F-5E the american leaders decided to send the first batch, which was intended for the Marines, to the Republic of Vietnam. So 40 F-5GN were handed over.
On May 1st 1975 Saigon was taken by the communist forces. the war was over. 36 surviving F-5GN were captured by the north vietnamese. To pay war depts Vietnam handed all 36 F-5GN and 12 F-5E to the soviets.
In the USSR the planes were tested very hard. Finaly the decision was made to use the F-5GN in the Soviet Navy. The canceled carrier project Oriol was revitalized and in 1976 the first soviet carrier squadron was formed. The soviets modified only the RWR and the air to air missiles. Air to ground weapons were taken from captured stores in Vietnam.
The US Navy realized very soon that the soviets had a new plane. Analysts believed, that the soviets copied the F-5GN and gave her the designation MiG-28.
The F-5GN alias MiG-28 had only a short service time in the Soviet Navy.
1982 the F-5GN was withdrawn from service. The reason was missing spare parts.
Afterwards the planes were sold to Iran.

By Gepard in Chinese Aircraft
F-7M Airguard IRAN
*****************
----------------------------------------------------------
I.
In the 1980th the F-7M was a modernized export version of the chinese J-7II.
With the help of US american and british companies the Chinese put new avionics into the old airframe. Mainly the british Skyranger rangefinder radar and a HUD, but also an improved engine and 4 instead 2 wing hardpoints increased the combat capabilities of this bird.
The F-7M was exported to Iraq, Egypt, Iran and other 3. world contries.
The F-7M in this package is an iranian bird, as it is used by the Iranian Air Force up today. In iranian service it use american or american based weapons, but can also carry chinese weapons.
This mod is made for WOI, but will also work with WOE.

F-7ME Iran for WOI and WOE

F-7ME IRAN (Fiction)
*****************

With the help of US american and british companies the Chinese put new avionics into the old airframe. Mainly the british Skyranger rangefinder radar and a HUD, but also an improved engine and 4 instead 2 wing hardpoints increased the combat capabilities of this bird. The F-7M was exported to Iraq, Egypt, Iran and other 3. world contries.
In the late 80th, early 90th the chinese developed the J-7E version with double delta wing, increased fueltank volume and ecm jammer. The new wing, which was fitted with slats improved the agility of the plane by 84%. It can now turn with a rate of 25°/sec.
The F-7ME is fiction. It is a iranian F-7M updated to J-7E level.
This mod is made for WOI, but will also work with WOE.

Faroe Islands terrain
By Gepard in Full Terrains
Faroe islands 1.0
*****************************************************
This terrain is written for SF2NA.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I. Short description:
North of Scotland you will find small groups of islands, the Shetlands and the Faroe. They are nothing more than tiny rocks, surrounded by the icy waters of the Atlantic Ocean. On the first view completly unimportant rocks somewhere in the nowhere. But a second view shows high economical values. The islands sitting in the middle of rich fishing grounds, and then, even more, there is oil. North Sea oil.
But not enough. A powerfull nation, that is able to install a base at the Faroe, rules all the waters between Iceland and the british islands. A hostile nation might be even able to raise a blockade over Great Britain.
This makes some scenarios possible:
First the classical what if the Soviets would had captured the Faroe and the US Navy starts an attempt to push them out.
Second, what if America sends the Marines?
Third, what if Britain tries to defeat the Soviets with own power?
Forth, what if Hitler-Germany would have captured the Faroe?
Fifth, what if the EU raise a blockade over a Brexit UK?
Sixth, what if Britain was bought by President Trump instead Greenland and John Bull stand up to fight fort the british independence?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
II. INSTALLATION:
To run this terrain you need SF2NorthAtlantic.
Unzip all files into your saved game folder ...ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2NorthAtlantic /terrain folder.
Thats it.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
III. Modifications
Faroe islands terrain is made so, that you can play it out of the box. You will find a classic Cold war scenario US Navy vs Soviet forces.
Other possible scenarios are prepared.
Open the folder Goodies and you will find the folder Nation ini
In this folder you find 6 subfolders, one for each scenarios i have descriped above.
Choose the one you like.
In this subfolders you find the file FAEROER_NATION.ini.
Copy this file to the Faeroer folder and let overwrite the existing file and enjoy the other scenario. (BTW personaly i prefer Brexit scenario. Flying Hunters vs Hunters is really fun.)
Faroe islands terrain is made so, that you has 2 fixed carrer stations. For the red side a station north of the Shetlands. For the blue side south of the Faroes.
If you want to have multible carrier stations, than you must open the Subfolder "multible carrier stations" and copy the file FAROE_WATER.bmp to the Faroe folder.
When i started to make Faroe islands terrain i used TOD files made by M.Broers for the IcelandNA HFD terrain. Later i found out, that on the Faroes no trees exist. So i decided to remove the TOD files. If you want trees and TOD buildings, the copy the tod files in the Faroe folder. But be aware, there are not all tiles fitted with tods. It looks a little bit strange.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
IV. Credits.
The basic Tileset i took from M.Breors terrain IcelandNA HFD.
The basic files for the emergency runways, parking areas and quais are made by ErikGen.
The OilRig was made by RussoUK for my PersianGulf terrain.
I hope i have not forgotten someone.
.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
V. This Terrain is Freeware. Commercial use is not allowed.
And i say it again for the YAP, YankeeAirPirates file thiefs, the use of this terrain and parts of the terrain for commercial use is not allowed.

Flakpanzer Gepard
By Gepard in Ground Object Mods
Flakpanzer Gepard for Ukraine terrain
*****************************************************
This mod is made for SF2.
----------------------------------------------------------
I.
The Gepard Flakpanzer is a mobile gunsystem intended to escort and defend tank units. In this role it is outdated today. But it is still very usefull as point defence weaponsystem against cruise missiles and drones.
In 2022 Germany handed over already stored Gepard Flakpanzer to the Ukraine.
In this mode the Gepard Flakpanzer is available only for the Ukraine from 2022 and for Brazil from 2014.
This Gepard mod is made for older and slower computers. It use Gabilons old and small LOD file from 2005. I made a new skin to give it a good look.
