Gepard replied to Gepard's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - World War II Forum
RAF Biggin Hill I had to move the airfields of Kenley, Biggin Hill and Rochford a little bit, to place them on a more or less correct point on the map. -

I had not known, that the british side had camouflaged some airfields during Battle of Britain. Here is an air footage from 1940 of RAF Tangmere Thatswhy i have experimented with a camouflaged tile for airfields: RAF Tangmere: What do you think about this airfield tile. Should it stay in terrain or should i use the old (not camo) green version? -

RAF Croydon Fighter Command, an airfield mid in London. I think i should make a new airfield tile for this airbase, so that it fit better into London. -

RAF Detling Coastal Command At the moment i make one airbase per day. 38 bases of the RAF are on the map. So you can calculate when the terrain can be finished. I think X-mas this year is realistic. Or in two weeks.- 279 replies

View File 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. 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. In west german service the F-5GN stayed till 1995. Then it was replaced by F-31 Mustang II. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- II. CREDITS: The F-5GN(Marines) based on Centurions 2014 released F-5E package.
