52nd Fighter Wing 1994
By daddyairplanes in Other
52nd Fighter Wing 1994
This mod brings together all of the aircraft of the 52nd Fightere Wing at Spangdahlem AB, Federal Republic of Germany in 1994. It features historic serials and skins for the era
Included
A-10A_93, F-16C/D_B50, F-15C/D_91 aircraft
Sounds, effects and decals for all of the above
Assorted Weapons
Special Fuel Tanks to allow selection from different aircraft.
Installation
unzip, add contents of "2 Mod Folder" to the mod folder of your choice. allow overwrites
NOTE ON SPECIAL TANKS AND MIXED FLIGHTS
I HAVE SET UP A SERIES OF ROCKET/FUEL TANKS (MINUS THE ROCKETS) SO THAT FUEL TANKS OTHER THAN WHAT IS NATIVE TO THE AIRCRAFT CAN BE SELECTED, ALLOWING MIX FLIGHTS OF AIRCRAFT. THE TANKS FOR EACH AIRCRAFT IS IDENTIFIED BY A NUMBER AT FRONT (IE "370 GAL TANK") WHILE THE NON REGULAR ONES HAVE THE AIRCRAFT NAME IN FRONT (IE F-16 370 GAL TANK). THEY WILL APPEAR FOR THE MOST PART AT THE BOTTOM OF THE MENU SCROLL
IF YOU CHOOSE TO DO THIS, IT IS HIGHLY RECCOMENDED THAT YOU SELECT THE F-16C, THEN CHANGE TO THE F-15 OR A-10 IN THE LOADOUT MENU SCREEN ( flightname 1-1 IF YOU WANT TO CHANGE THE LEAD). THIS WILL ALLOW YOU TO USE ALL AVAILABLE WEAPONS, AS THE F-16 CAN CARRY ANYTHING THE A-10 OR F-15 CAN.
_____________________________________ UPDATE 3 Mar 24 _______________________________ ____________________________
data inis on F-16s updated based on work by FANATIC MODDER
Viper loadouts adjusted to automatically add HTS after 1994
loading screen changed for F-16C_B50

Sentry '04: USAF E-3B/C's of the 552nd ACW and PACAF
By daddyairplanes in Other
SENTRY '04: USAF E-3B/C's of the 552nd ACW and PACAF
Since 1976 the USAF has used the E-3 Sentry to control the air battlespace it finds itself in. Starting in 1995, the E-3 fleet began to recieve the Block 30/35 upgrade. These upgrades improved its communications, navigation, and electronic support equipment over the older versions. The most visible change was the ESM pods on the cheeks, and additional fairings on the chin and rear of the aircraft. These upgrades continued until the entire fleet was completed in fall of 2001.
This mod represents the E-3B/C fleet at a time of major restructuring, with the 552nd Air Control Wing having reduced to 3 squadrons and the two PACAF squadrons (961st AACS at Kadena and 962nd AACS at Elmendorf) operating 3 of each.
Included
This mod includes skin for the E-3B aircraft with fake pilot upgrades, skins and decals for all 5 squadrons active in 2004 as well as a 552nd ACW overall skin
Installation
unzip mod, add contents of "2 Mod Folder" to mod folder of your choice. allow overwrites
Known Issues
- The Sentry aircraft pull hard to port (left) when taking off. This only occurs when the player is hand flying the aircraft, when AI or autopilot flies this is not an issue
- The cockpit is not a great match for the aircraft, however SF2 does not support any of their (E-3 or CT-49) original missions as player flyable and they were originally intended to be eye candy. Until we get a 3d modeller that wants to do a new E-3 or even 707 proper pit, this is how it will be.

Gunfighters! 366th Wing, Mountain Home's Mini Air Force in the 1990s
By daddyairplanes in Other
Gunfighters! 366th Wing, Mountain Home's Mini Air Force in the 1990s
In the 1990s, CSAF General Merril McPeak had a concept to test; expeditionary wings that had the entire range of capabilities to wage an air campaign. This lead to change for the 366th Fighter Wing, "Gunfighters", as they transitioned from a F-11 fighter unit to a composite wing, with bomber aircraft, tankers, and fighters specializing in air to air, SEAD and interdiction roles.
The wing participated in several exercises and combat operations throughout the 1990s to validate the composite wing concept. Ultimately, economics of operating so many different aircraft types in one wing and base led to the consolodation of the Wing as a F-15E Strike Eagle unit.
But, for about a decade, the Gunfighters hosted an entire mini air force, ready for its' nation's call to action. This mod is a tribute to that experiment.
Installation
This package includes everything you need to get into action. Unzip the mod, ope the "2. Mod Folder", and place contents into your chosen mod folder. Allow overwrites as necessary.

SENTRY : Aircraft of the NATO E-3A Component
By daddyairplanes in Other
SENTRY: Aircraft of the NATO E-3A Component
Since 1983, NATO has operated international squadrons of E-3A Sentrys, commonly referred to as AWACS from Geilenkirchen AB. Registered in Luxembourg due to international law, the NATO AEW&C Force held watch during the final decade of the Cold War, participated in operations over the Balkans and Libya, and assisted with US homeland defense after the attacks on 9/11/01.
During the late 1990s, the NATO Sentry fleet gained upgrades in line with the USAF's Block 30/35 upgrades. These included distinctive fairings on the aircraft chin, cheek and tail housing ESM equipment. The aircraft retained their original E-3A designations after the upgrades.
For several years, retired 707 airliners were also operated as trainers to reduce E-3 flying hours and as transports to support NAEWF missions as well as other NATO missions when available. These aircraft were designated CT-49A and operated unti the mid 2010s.
Included
This mod includes skin for the E-3A, an E-3A_98 aircraft with fake pilot upgrades and CT-49A trainer aircraft, as well as decals and a set of ESM pods for the newer E-3A
Installation
unzip mod, add contents of "2 Mod Folder" to mod folder of your choice. allow overwrites
Known Issues
- The Sentry aircraft pull hard to port (left) when taking off. This only occurs when the player is hand flying the aircraft, when AI or autopilot flies this is not an issue

Echoes Across the States: KC-135E Stratotanker's First 15 Years
By daddyairplanes in Other
Echoes Across the States: KC-135E Stratotanker's First 15 Years
This skinpack is a remod of the TMF KC-135E done years ago. While utilizing the same model, it now features a greatly improved texture set, ini performance enhancements and each of the skins is researched to be as accurate as is possible with current knowledge.
Included *
two KC-135E versions, (82) and (92)
sixty (yes 60!) skins between the two versions. most Shamu based skins also feature nose arts
Cockpit and ini edits to make player flyable
drogue "weapon", addable in the loadout screens
Required
a legal functioning install of any SF2 version
Installation
unzip this mod, then install new mod folder categories to your mod folder (Aircraft to aircraft etc)
allow overwrites
fire up game, take off and go pass gas
Known Issues
-This is meant as eye candy. unfortunately, SF2 doesnt support air to air refueling so the best to be done is set up a recon mission and then park it in an orbit.
- Also, the C-130 cockpit is not too accurate. it is included mainly so that it can be player selected (i had to test it somehow). remember that there is no air to air refueling in game, so these are more eye candy than operational birds
- dont manuever aggressively. aggressive manuvering will cause a deep stall. its a huge pain to recover from as a player (firewall the throttle, set flaps to landing, yank stick back and hold). any AI wingmen wont make it trying to follow you
*Wagner CD not included

unzip this mod, then install new mod folder categories to your mod folder (Aircraft to aircraft etc)
allow overwrites
fire up game, take off and go pass gas
Known Issues
-This is meant as eye candy. unfortunately, SF2 doesnt support air to air refueling so the best to be done is set up a recon mission and then park it in an orbit.
-Also, the C-130 cockpit is not too accurate. it is included mainly so that it can be player selected (i had to test it somehow). remember that there is no air to air refueling in game, so these are more eye candy than operational birds
- there are currently no wingtip MPRS pods for these aircraft. Once some have been sourced (via new aircraft model or pod model) they will be added in
-the Agean Ghost is not 100% accurate. there were not very good pics of the wings, plus model quirks meant some patches had to be put on each wing ot allow for color onthe airbrakes (all 4 of which were mapped to the two on the left wing)

SLUFs on Guard: A-7D in Air National Guard service 1974-1993
By daddyairplanes in A-7
SLUFs on Guard: A-7D in Air National Guard service 1974-1993
This mod adds several new skins to showcase the stock ThirdWire A-7D as it appeared in Air National Guard service. This mod includes two "new" A-7 variants based off the stock A-7D_78, mainly for ease of incorporating skins and saving 500MB of space!
The A-7D Corsair II (most commonly called the SLUF) first entered service in the Air Guard with the 188th Tactical Fighter Squadron, New Mexico ANG, in early 1974. The SLUF went on to serve with 16 different squadrons of the ANG, 15 of which are presented here (Arizona's 162nd TFS was the schoolhouse and flew predominantly A-7K two seaters). The A-7D finally bowed out of USAF service when the 162d Fighter Squadron, Ohio ANG, retired theirs in early 1993.
REQUIREMENTS
This mod requires you to have STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 EUROPE for the A-7D_75 and _78 it is based on. You could adapt rename the skins for use with the A-7D found in SF2 or SF2V,
but thats 5 files in 60 some skins.
INSTALLATION
UNZIP MAIN FOLDER, PUT OBJECTS FOLDER INTO DESIRED MOD FOLDER
Included
4 Aircraft: A-7D_75, A-7D_78, A-7D_83, A-7D_88,
59 Skins and tga sets covers the major schemes used by all covered units
historic serials well, fairly historic. this was a tough nut to crack and airframes are matched to units as best as possible.
nose arts for the gray 112th TFS (Ohio ANG) and all 149th TFS (Virginia ANG)
weapons regular bombs modded by me to boost base supply levels. other weapons that could be seen later in life added too including the LANA FLIR pod
ini edits mostly tweaking weapons loadouts. Air Guard SLUFs were more likely to carry basic bomb loads rather than the precision guided toys. and rarely had tanks
Credits

Stealth SLUFs : A-7D in service with the 4450th Tactical Group
By daddyairplanes in A-7
Stealth SLUFs : A-7D in service with the 4450th Tactical Group
This mod adds several new skins to showcase the stock ThirdWire A-7D as it appeared with the 4450th Tactical Group in the 1980s. The mod features their special version of the European 1 camo scheme as well as the SEA wraparound they appeared in for about the first year of operation.
The 4450th Tactical Group was the first unit to operate the then ultra secret F-117A Nighthawk. In order to maintain a cover other than "Stealth Fighter", the group also operated around a dozen A-7Ds to develop "avionics for the A-7D". They flew the Corsair II from mid 1981 until 1989, after the F-117A program became public a few mnths prior.

23d Wing Pope AFB 1994
By daddyairplanes in Other
23d Wing Pope AFB 1994
In the 1990s, the USAF experimented with composite wings that would have everything needed within a single unit for deployment into a regional fight.
The 23 Wing was formed in 1992 to bring about this vision, as applied to direct support of US Army forces. By 1994, 4 squadrons were ready at Pope AFB NC
to support the US Army's 82d ABN DIV at neighboring Fort Bragg. The 2d and 41st Airlift Squadrons flying the C-130E Hercules, the 74th Fighter Squadron flying
the F-16C/D Block 40 Vipers, and the 75th Fighter Squadron flying the A-10A Warthog. As is tradition for the 23d Wing, which traces its lineage to the
Flying Tigers of World War 2, every aircraft in the wing sported a sharks mouth.
This mod brings together everything needed to get the 23d Wing into the fight. Complete aircraft (including a newly revamped F-16D Block 40 from ravenclaw007), period specific weapons, sounds and effects.
Included
Viper Team F-16C Block 40 and 75th FS skin
ravenclaw007/Viper Team F-16D Block 40 and 75th FS skin
Dels C-130E_SKE with 2d ALS, 41st ALS Grey and 23d Wing Euro 1 skins
Various period specific weapons (actively in use 1994-1996)
Installation
unzip folder * drop into mod folder of your choice * allow overwrites
Known Issues
The C-130 and its weapons are primarlily eye candy. There are unfortuneatly no paratroop drop missions in SF2, and so if you want to drop say 1/325 INF onto a drop zone,
you will need to select a recon mission and punch those partarooper out by hand
I have been having issues getting the LAPES Sheridan tank to create a "crater" after dropping. it is still included for the visuals of puching a tank out the back of a Herk,
and because there was still an Airborne Armor Bn at Bragg in 1994. But at this time the tank will disappear on contact with the ground

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
UPDATE 31 DEC 20220
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
After further research on other Hog units, and closer examination of the TW model, i have included Spectre8750's A-10A_93 model with updated numbers list.
I also changed several serials after determining that they were at other bases in 1995. The deduction I used to find the C-130 serials didnt work as well
for the Hogs. But it is fixed and I even discovered two Tiger Shark Hogs that were still in Euro 1 camoflage at the time. The A-10A_93 features two skins for
the bulk of the gray birds and the two green ones.

USAF A-37B Pack
By daddyairplanes in Other
A-37B USAF Pack
This is the current end point for two years worth of work. Centurion-1 began by creating a new model for the Super Tweet, several contributors later we are releasing it to you
Included are decals, new J85 sound, an updated squadronlist.ini, appropriate weapons, and 3 versions of the aircraft.
- A-37B: the original, as used by the USAF, Air National Guard, and several Latin American air arms. no refuel probe
- A-37B (76): adds refuel probe, as used by US ANG and USAF Reserve units the second half of the 1970s
- OA-37B: Final version as in US service, and as currently used by Latin American air arms. With refuel probe
- Photoshop templates for those that want to bring the other air forces into play
**********************************KNOWN ISSUES***********************************************************
-Cockpit is missing throttles. Unless Centruion1 returns this is unresolveable
-Lod is locked in, unless Centurion-1 returns.
-Modders: there is a bleed issue on the right side. any bands like the VNAF had need to be on skin, not tga. small decals like insignia work fine.
-This mod uses my master squadronlist.ini. IF installed into another install with other than stock squadronlist, do not install. It will mess up the other things on your install and my mod is adapted to force the decals.
NOTICE: this mod currently is AS IS and can only be modded by skinning and ini edits. It's not perfect, but its
in house and therefore free.
********************************************************************************************************************************
Installation: drop into mod folders. allow overwrites if it comes up. Delete DAT version, this replaces and upgrades player experience. Modders, put the templates where you wish to work on them
DON'T FORGET TO BACK UP BEFORE INSTALLING!
****************NOTE!!!!!! IMPORTANT NOTE *************************************************************
If you install this in a install that has eburgers SF2V Air & Ground Expansion Pack, DO NOT INSTALL THE PILOTDATA FOLDER!!!! This will overwrite the Squadronlist.ini in the pack and may break something. If you do not have the Air&Ground pack or NATO Fighters installed the new squadronlist ini will work fine and be a big improvement for units available.

The Last CAstles: The B-52G at Castle AFB 1992-94
This mod creates a B-52G_92 to represent the last 24 G models in service from mid 1992 through early 1994 at Castle AFB. The mod has two skins for the 93rd Bomb Wing and the 34th Bomb Squadron. The 34th BS was a remote based part of the 366th Wing at the time.

Historical Notes: While the aircraft as a whole is capable of carrying AGM-142 cruise missiles, only the 8 aircraft of the 34th BS were actually configured to carry these.
Installation:unzip. put all folders into desired mod folder. Allow overwrites as needed.
Contributors

Samurai, Headhunters, Panthers and Foxes: PACAF F-16C/Ds in the 1990s pt 1
By daddyairplanes in F-16
Samurai, Headhunters, Panthers and Foxes
PACAF F-16C/Ds in the 1990s pt 1
PACAF started transitioning their F-16 fleet in the very early 1990s from the initial F-16A/B models to the more advanced C/D models. 8th Fighter Wing in Korea and 432d Fighter Wing in Japan received Block 30 versions while the 18th Fighter Squadron in Alaska recieved the Block 40s. These units participated in many of the actions the USAF was involved in; including Deny Flight detachments in USAFE's AOR and no fly zone operations over Iraq.
Included
F-16C and D, Blocks 30 and 40
various period specific weapons and pilots
various ini edits to match the era
new hangar and loading screens
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: The D models have very few serial numbers to each unit. most units only had one or two family models.the best use for these is to add on as a member of a flight of single seaters. The load outs are the same so you will be
able to load them out easy

Units
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
89th FS "Rhinos" F-16A Block 10 Wright Patterson AFB
93rd FS "Florida Makos" F-16A/B Block 15 Homestead AFB

Included
skins for TW based F-16A Block 10
DA mod Team Viper F-16A/B Block 15 OCU, F-16D Block 30
Team Viper F-16C Blocks 30,32
ravenclaw_007 F-16D Block 32
various period specific weapons and pilots
various ini edits to match the era
new hangar and loading screens
NOTE 1: The B and D models have very few serial numbers to each unit. most units only had one or two family models. the best use for these is to add on as a member of a flight of single seaters rather than as a flight of their own. The loadouts are the same so you will be able to load the same weapons.
*************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
NOTE 2: The F-16A Block 10s do not have corresponding B models at this time. The existing Generation 1 models in my opinion need more work than is feasible to bring them to SF2 standards. There are entries in the numbers.lst for B models in the event a new Block 10 two seater becomes available.
************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
LOADING SCREEN NOTE: I will be including various loading screens with the diferent packs available.
different load screens will be available within each aircraft ini
if you already had a different version and prefer that one, simply remove the "//" from the one you want and add to the one without.

Charlie Vipers on Guard Part 3: Block 40/42s in the 90s
This mod is the thrid of three to represent the various versions of the F-16C/D in US Air National Guard service during the 1990s. It was a busy time with potential conflicts in Korea and active operations ongoing over Iraq and the Balkans. This mod aims to show the
units as they were at that time.
Included
Team Viper F-16C Block 40 and 42
new F-16D Block 40 and 42 models
various period specific weapons and pilots
various ini edits to match the era

***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
SECOND NOTE: The 124th FS Skin in the Block 40 does only have one serial. This unit only had one Block 40 for a short time before it went to Europe. This serial (89-2032) was the same aircraft that CPT Scott O'Grady
was shot down in June 1995.

Texas Falcons: Vipers over the Lone Star State (90s Edition)
By daddyairplanes in F-16
Texas Falcons:
F-16s over the Lone Star State 1990-1999
This mod represents the various models of F-16 that were in service in the Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve during the 1990s. These units include the
- 457th Fighter Squadron (Air Force Reserve) at Fort Worth
- 704th Fighter Squadron (Air Force Reserve) at Bergstrom AFB
- 111th Fighter Squadron (Texas ANG) at Ellington ANGB
- 182d Fighter Squadron (Texas ANG) at Lackland AFB
These units have utilized a range of F-16 models over the years and a wider range of missions. The 704th deactivated in 1996, and the 111th converted to MQ-1s in 2009. But the 457th and 182d are still going strong as Viper operators today
Included
Team Viper F-16C Blocks 25, 30, 32
Modified Team Viper F-16A/B Block OCU, F-16D Block 30
new F-16A/B Block 15 ADF, F-16D Blocks 25 and 30
various period specific weapons and pilots
various ini edits to match the era
new hangar and loading screens
NOTE: The D models have very few serial numbers to each unit. most units only had one or two family models. the best use for these is to add on as a member of a flight of single seaters. The load outs are the same so you will be able to load teh same weapons.
Other Note: If there is not a two seater assigned to a unit, there will not be a D model skin for that unit. I have checked about a dozen times to be sure I wasnt missing something
