    Eyes of USAFE: RF-4C Phantom IIs in Europe 1978-1991 A TMF Rebuilt skin pack This skinpack brings the Photo Phantoms of the 10th Tac Recon Wing and 26th Tac Recon Wing during their operations in Germany and the UK. It covers the various specific versions and camoflage schemes from the late 1970s until the end of the types service in USAFE in 1991 NOTE: Desert Storm skins for the 38th TRS are not available at this time (July 2024). Required A functional copy of any Strike Fighters 2 game except for SF2 North Atlantic (the only one without a native F-4 destroyed model) The aircraft from the TMF Rebuilt RF-4C Late set, available here: https://combatace.com/files/file/18263-late-model-rf-4cs-photo-phantoms-after-vietnam/ Included Skins for two different aircraft models, Decals for those skins Installation Unzip file, add Objects folder to desired mod folder. Allow overwrites, some features of the 1st TRS '83 skin/decals are present in the original aircraft folder ************************************************************************************************************************************************** NOTE!!

Many of their models are still heavily in use today, 15 years later and still amongst the very best. This despite the team not creating any new mods since the passing of Oliver Anguille in 2009. But time does move on, and the next generation of modders have ideas, techniques and tools not available back then. With the help of some of the original modellers (who have copies of the original max files) we can update these fine aircraft for the 2020s. Rebuilt for new terrains and campaigns that were just hopeful wishes over a decade ago. The Mirage in the logo is camoflaged, much like the real aircraft in later service. The "HD" has been replaced with "Rebuilt" as what was HD in the 2010s is jsut standard today. Finally, the new logo thanks Oli, both for the aircraft that are still relevant today and for the inspiration he's given to the modders that followed him. on behalf of The Mirage Factory (original and rebuilt) I thank you for downloading this mod, and hope you enjoy it.

    "You vitriolic, patriotic, slam fight, bright light Feeling pretty psyched"
  6. Viper Pit

    Rampagin Rhinos
  7. the main thing that comes to mind when you say "All Inclusive Install" and SF2 is the big packs from DAT most involved WW2, but his latest ones focus on conflict with Indonesia
  8. if they didnt get it until the mid 80s, then it could just be the Mitsubishi F-21J Komainu. Mitsubishi tended to get the first few aircraft built wherever, then a few kits and then built the other 90% themselves. F-21 rather than C2 keeps inline with American designation conventions (as they did even with their indigenous designs) but yeah, those would be fun to skim over the ocean with.......
  9. Stratos guessed it was a no after zero response in 24 hours i merely pointed out that the lack of a response didnt indicate a fully negative response but expressed it in a shorter, funnier way
  10. not necessarily a no. just not a yes my guess however, is that the labels apply to targetable vehicles, while AAMs/SAMs are considered ammo and thus dont get labels
  11. Two-Seater Tuesdays

    hittin teh IP, fire up the cameras where'd everybody go?
  12. Good Morning Ivan.... черт!
  13. is that airbase supposed to be smoking like that? i mean some things smoke naturally but....
  14. some (including myself) thought this might be coming out this week weeeelllll........ 4 more things then we should be good. this is one of them still 363rd Tac Fighter Wing, just at the very beginning of the new era
  15. ok oof. wasnt suggesting you dont know how to google a majority of my online experience anywhere is something pops on FB, im then on google seeing what the hell theyre talking about. could be a new missile, could be who died now or lost a piece of their ear. i didnt mean to imply anything lets just agree the new missile's lookin good in game
  16. nah its all Coyote Aerospace v2k built em up, and i dressed em up purty ravenclaw did the conventional bombs iirc, and GKABS the big boy (Mk15s) i believe 509th went to England semi regular. all the units rotated 6 week alert duty at forward locations. i didnt keep the books on them tho, and dont recall who went to Guam, Alaska and Korea on the regular
  17. Viper Pit

    they already released pics of the first ones in UkAF markings while pretty, i dont think the splinter scheme is coming soon ------------------------------------------------------------------------- in other news, im just gonna rename my test install "Fort Worth" got more Vipers in there even with all the Phantom work i've been doing the last year
  18. Metrea to Operate 5th Largest Tanker Fleet

    https://www.twz.com/air/all-of-frances-kc-135-tankers-bought-by-private-aerial-refueling-company-metrea?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR3k_uLOzH0ij4hBPN8b2ZngGNLSj3PDtVdRuuTWkW57SyHePumgpMK5OmQ_aem_j6ch-shUz7FKgqU0dIWcGg Damn. I'll have to update that skin soon.
  19. well, FB generates the leads. and some good pics for aircraft types when you got a specific thing to look up, its alway Google
  20. Metrea to Operate 5th Largest Tanker Fleet

    they dont go into harms way each civilian tanker handling routine training or scheduled trans oceanic fighter drags frees up military crews and airframes for the hot zones plus probably 90% of their people are retired 135 people anyhow. doing the same job, but for much better pay. given how tanker crews have beenin the past, im not to worried about them taking chances to save a recievers butt and finally, you gotta admit their schemes look damn cool. i cant wait to see what they do with the new birds
  21. which B-47 units are you using? i did skins for all of them, although it was far enough back that i dont recall who was regulars to the Pacific
  22. Viper Pit

    74th on the hunt while the part timers wait their turn
  23. you know, i know that that is supposed to be "AG". but the way its laid out on the tail, at very first i thought it was "CA" and wondered when the site had its own air wing mandatory screenie or "whats the fine for buzzing the tower in Serbia?"
  24. between half and 3/4's of my FB usage is research. you wouldnt believe how many USAF unit veteran groups im a member of... that said, it also leads to my news feed popping up with whats new in the world of mil aviation, not just the old stuff. my understanding is that it was always a joint program. i dont know if there's issues or not tho; literally everything i can find on it for the last two years has been about the USAF version. nothing about Navy my wondering stems from that silence combined with this. but the AIM-260 is being handled almost the same as nukes when it comes to secrecy.....
