Stock F-4 Phantom 2 USAFCamo1 Decalpack, and Ini Tweek
By daddyairplanes in F-4
As the title says, this adjusts the SEA scheme in game to accept the later year Units. Earlier Phantom models have a second skin named SEA73, while later models just have their decal ini's editted. I have also included the effects, weapons and sounds from my Post Vietnam Pack as well as some new loading screens. This also includes the 95% finished version of my all ube squadronlist.ini, now with many place holders so that patching should not throw the squadrons into disarray.
Created in Full5 merged, but should work in any stand alone SF2 version except for NA. Will need SF2Europe for the D and E _75 and _78.
Install is the same as always. For further questions please consult the readme.
Any issues with tailcodes, please post a screenshot with your question or gripe. And do remember, this is meant for after 1973, so the tailcodes will not be the same.
In fact many Vietnam era users will have blank tails as they no longer flew the Phantom after 1973-74. If you want that user, regular USAFCamo1 is left alone for all models prior to 1975.
I hope you enjoy this mod!

F-105D Hill AFB Skins
By daddyairplanes in F-105
Semi Historical Hill AFB F-105D Skins
The 466th TFS, USAF Reserve, was lhe last operator of the F-105 Thunderchief. They flew their last mission before converting to the F-16A in 1984. Due to how
long they flew the 'Thud' and their proximity to Ogden Air Logistics Center, where many aircraft go to be repainted, they flew 3 Thuds in colors other than the traditional SEA camo. Those schemes (SEA Wraparound, European 1, and a one off Desert scheme based on the pattern of the first two) are represented here.
Also provided are black tailcode for the 466th ('HI') and 50 black serial numbers. Sorry only 50 as the Thud was getting rarer by that time. The first 10 serials are
historical with the first 3 being the ones used by the aircraft so painted. the other
40 numbers are redone TW serials spanning FY59-62.
This is not a completely accurate rendition, the pattern is different than T.O. 1-1-4
states for SEA Wraparound and Euro 1. What I did was to wraparound the stock skin, then
swap the colors (as was done IRL). I also did not do the nose art's for the aircraft
due to other commmitments, and lack of time.
Much credit goes to :
ludo.54m for his templates, which allowed me more freedom to color while keeping the
panel lines and rivets
Soulfreak, both for the idea and material support with references
TK for the stock bird and decals
the greater CA community for support and education over the years
Included in the mod are
Desert, Euro 1 and SEA Wraparound skins
my Expanded Squadronlist.ini, which puts 466th TFS as selectable in menu
the Photoshop templates I used to create this mod.
Installation
unzip the files, copy and paste to the appropriate folders. Allow merging of
Aircraft and Decal folders. Enjoy
Thank you for downloading this mod!

Enhancement Pack for TW DLC 23 - F-4N Phantom II
By daddyairplanes in F-4
DLC 23 F-4N PHANTOM II ENHANCEMENT PACK
This is a mod to enhance the DLC F-4N. It includes data.ini's for smoky engines,
realistic weapons and drooping ailerons. It also features many skins that have been
touched up using Sundowners templates. Finally it has 100 historic BuNo's, and
several styles and colors for modexes. It covers a wide spread of N users without
becoming completely OCD.
Included are:
-3 F-4N aircraft (N, N_77, N_80) to help keep some order and smallness of file size. skins covered include USN/MC Grey, Overall Gloss
Gloss Gull Gray(circa 1980), Lo Viz Grey (1981) and TPS (1983). Ferris and Heater Ferris were not used for the most part on N models.
-my expanded squadronlist.ini. tho many units are stock in here, several will not show without this. Plus it's got room for anybody you
can think of and then some more.
-an expansive NavalF4 decal folder to cover all years after Vietnam (EXCEPT 1976). not all will be full right now, but
they will be filled up with some future planned mods.
-a Numbers folder with Buno's for the N, and several styles of Modex's
-smokier engine effects for the J-79s.
-J-79 engine sounds
REQUIRED: The TW F-4N Phantom II, DLC 23.
INSTALLATION:
same as any other mod. unzip the file, paste into your mod folder, allow overwrites for old copies
of the smoke effects and the F-4N.ini.
CREDITS
First is a HUGE THANK YOU to mytai01. much of this work is based off of his model for decalling the F-4 Phantom.
Some of the nn tgas are even lifted off his B model skins and adjusted into N models BuNos. Those that have seen
his work will recognize much influence in this mod.
Thanks to Sundowner for his templates. With a Sundowner template, you have to work hard to screw up a skin!!!!!
As with all my Phantom mods, thank you to Spillone104 for his J-79 effects. I do like them so, and hope
you will as well.
thanks to JSF_Aggie for his drooping aileron edit for the data.ini. although TK fixed that in the July
2013 patch, i have not patched there yet and know that many still haven't. for the time being the mod
uses JSF_Aggie's work.
Thanks to Gerwin, Blade, Wrench, Dave, mppd, Ghost531 and many others who have given me answers and resources
to many technical questions the last year and a half I've been working this.
special thanks to Ghost531 and CrazyHorseB34 for getting me off my fourth point of contact when stalled
on this project
and as always thanks to TK who developed both the game and the particular DLC, then left enough work for
likes of me to fill in.
again thank you for downloading this mod and i hope that you enjoy it!

F-105D/F Thunderchief ANG and AFRES skinpack
By daddyairplanes in F-105
This mod extends the in game life of the F-105 to match the real 1981 through 1984 retirements. It
features skins for the early 70's, late 70's, early 80's and a special skin featuring the noseart of the
149th TFS of the Virginia ANG. The markings are as accurate as I can find through several days of searching
the web for photos of the listed units.
- Required: You will need SF2, SF2 Europe or SF2 Vietnam for the stock F-105D_66.
- Included: Skins for 4 ANG and 3 AFRES F-105 operators. I have not included the Georgia ANG as that is
represented in the F-105G mod.
Also Included is an F-105F_66 aircraft. While the majority of F's were
used as Weasels, conversion and proficiency traning still had to take place. Every Thud fighter squadron
had at least 1 F on the books.
Data.ini's have been edited also to reflect proper service years.
- Credits: The Wrench, for his rerelease of ArmourDave's F-105F pack, as well as a few parts of TGAs that I
used from his F-100D ANG skinpack.He even answered a stupid question by yours truly.
TK, for the stock Thuds and ability to mod this game we call SF2.
and me? well i just
//////////////////////////////// THUD ANG AND AFRES UNITS ////////////////////////////////////////////////
- 119th TFS, New Jersey ANG 1970-1973
- 127th TFS, Kansas ANG 1971-1978 (RTU for F-105s in USAF after 71)
- 128th TFS, Georgia ANG 1979-1983 (only ANG Weasel unit, flew G, not represented in this pack)
- 141st TFS, New Jersey ANG 1964-1981 (actually flew the B model)
- 149th TFS, Virginia ANG 1971-1981
- 457th TFS, AFRES Carswell AFB 1971-1978 (flew the Thunderstick II model)
- 465th TFS, AFRES Tinker AFB 1971-1981 (was originally the 305th TFS for first 13 months. Due to short
timespan, left as 465th)
- 466th TFS, AFRES Hill AFB 1971-1984 (initially flew B models, moved on to D in 1981)
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

ANG SLUF Pack- featuring TMF A-7D and A-7K
By daddyairplanes in A-7
This is an updated skinpack to reflect all USAF users of the SLUF after the bicentennial.
Every unit tactical unit is included, as well as the 4450th TG that was a cover for the
F-117A's at Tonopah. Most every scheme by every unit is in here; BUT for some units that had
different tail stripes for different flights rather than squadrons(i.e Puerto Rico), i picked one color and
went with that.
INSTALLATION
open the main folder, copy and paste into the mod folder of your choice and allow overwrites
INCLUDED
-4 diferent A-7D aircraft with one of the different paint schemes as a universal skin. changes
were limited to making 4 aircraft from 2, and adjusting the data.ini for the new droptanks
(A-7D_78TMF, A-7D80TMF, A-7D84TMF, A-7D_87TMF)
-1 A-7K with 4 different skins. droptanks for this are set for green as that is when the bulk
of these aircraft served was the SEA Wrap and Euro 1 era.
-3 sets of droptanks to work with the different A-7D models
- comprhensive decal set including 95 D model serials, 28 K model serials, and markings for
all units that flew in the paint schemes represented
- my expanded squadronlist.ini. helps to keep the tga's in order

Historical F-4B/J BuNos
By daddyairplanes in F-4
BuNo/ Serial Number mod for Stock F-4B and F-4Js
This is a mod to add historical BuNos to the stock Phantoms. when researching Bunos for other Phantom models, i got the numbers for the
B and J models first then took one hundred that survived to be retired as N or S models and did not crash with fatalities. this mod features the
B and J numbers i started with,as well as the BuNos for the mig killers. I also adjusted data ini for smokier engines.
ALL numbers after 099 are historical MiG killers, with a few that were already in the ones i had previously completed
Installation: open the main folder, then the Stock folder. add the 3 folders inside to the mod folder of your choice, allowing overwrites and merges.
if you have the USN/USMC DLC skinpack (DLC18) then open the DLC folder and follow the same directions above.
Included: over 100 Buno's with 4 digit big and full Buno small for the F-4B and J
adjusted decal ini's for all relevant skins
spillone104s J79 effects and data.ini conversion to put them to use
loading screens for each type
***************IMPORTANT NOTICE******************IMPORTANT NOTICE************************************************************************************
This pack focuses on the gull gray over white and overall gull gray schemes. The Marines gave up the last B's in 1978, and the J's were retired around 1983.
It was the N's and S's that wore most of the camo schemes and so i did not add any other color numbers than black. anyone wanting different colors is welcome
to PM me for a tutorial on how to change decals in GIMP. this is again intended for the stock skins, not a major rework of the skins/decals
***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
CREDITS
TK for the overall game
Spillone104 for the J79 exhaust effect
macelena, Slartibartfast, Muesli and whiteknight0664 and for being my crash test volunteers in checking this thing

McDonnel Douglas DC-10-30
By daddyairplanes in Other
Presenting ... The DC-10-30 Airliner! This bird is created from Marcfighters KC-10 model and some ini editing by yours truly to remove the AAR equipment. in this version the aircraft is shown as many airlines flew her in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. This supersedes the previous version.
INCLUDED
DC-10-30 aircraft (template included) with 70s,80s and 90s skins
decals for same
flight folder to modify nations and formation inis
terrain folders to modify limited nations list for all stock terrains
folders to adjust ODS, NF5 and SF2NA Exp Pack
CREDITS
Marcfighters............. KC-10 physical model
daddyairplanes........ conversion, new skin and template, decal work and ini edits
Kesselbrut................. for his C-130J-30_cockpit
THANKS TO
TK ... for the base game
Marcfighters ... for allowing me to run amok with his old baby
Wrench, eburger68, Gepard, and the overall community ... for much advise and technical
support on this project
slartibarfast, viggen, macelena and others who crash tested this thing for me
******************************WARNING*******************************************************************************
this bird is rather old, and has its limitations. it is not meant for flying on recon missions,
but rather mainly for eye candy and somethin to possibly intercept or escort. while you CAN
fly it, that does NOT MEAN YOU SHOULD. that said buyer beware all quirks of this bird like the pitch
down on gear and flap retractions and the non moving control surfaces.
****************************USE OF THIS MOD*************************************************************************
I will allow fairly free use of this mod in any other mod. What i (at this time) request is that you do not
create a new skin based airline for it. the airlines are on as tga so that many airlines show up at one time.
A seperate say "Pan Am" skin will ruin the effect and there will be 8-9 Pan Am birds on the tarmac. Any airline
you would like to see, pm me and i will either tell you how to make it or time allowing make it and add in. Thank
you.
again, thank you for downloading this and i hope you enjoy it

A dozen serial numbers and represented units tied to those numbers

Veltro2k for the original model and some technical support
Wrench for more tech support and updating the original some
Muesli for testing the semi final product
TK for the game itself
me, well i just made the nat metal and lizard skins, decals and cleaned up a little round the inis and edges

Upgrade and Skinpack For Veltro2K's C-141B
By daddyairplanes in Other
Upgrade for Veltro2k's C-141B Starlifter
This mod brings about several historical skins for the C-141B Starlifter by Veltro2K.
This mod adds several Euro 1 schemes, historical serial numbers as well as representation
of most every operational airlift unit that operated the C-141B.
Installation: unzip and install into your mods folder. Allow overwriting if needed.
This mod can run in any and all versions of SF2.
Included: 2 MAC White over Grey skin, including a skin for the final C-141B in service
3 European 1 schemes
2 Overall grey schemes, featuring units from the 90s and mid 2000s
reworked data.ini adjusting the loadout in the cargo bay
vehicle cargo to load into the cargo bay
KNOWN ISSUE: the refueling markings on top are shown via tga. that tga projects a weird grey line on the left side of the fuselage only. there is not a
fix at this time. how ever it is most noticeable on the white over grey and even then only at very close range. it is less noticeable on the
camoflaged schemes. this will be fixed when possible, my apologies for any inconvienence. I felt that how it appears at normal viewing
range vs time to fix, it was ready to release.
Credits: Veltro2k- original 3d model and overall grey skin
Wrench- various assorted questions answered
KillerBee331- weapons pack from which the vehicles came
Daddyairplanes- data.ini edit, Euro 1 skin variants, decals, vehicle cargo loads
thanks to Dave, Wrench, Viggen, Geary, Muesli and Veltro2k for taking a look at this bird before release
Thank you for downloading this mod and i hope that you enjoy it.

Boeing 767 Skin Pack
By daddyairplanes in Other
Boeing 767 Skin Pack
by daddyairplanes
This is a mod to add multiple airlines to Veltro2k's 767 airliner. This mod also adds
the airliner nation and formation so that a stream can be generated in game.
********************************* NOTICE ************************************
This mod displays several airlines at once on the same skin. I use a few tricks in ini editting and tga work to do this. this mod is partial free use, just do not add a complete other skin to it for a new airlines. Any additional airlines requested I am willing to make within the system i have set up. I set this up mainly to have better eye candy on the ramps, not see a dozen of the same airline.
IF you have a request, pm me and i will knock it out for you asap, or teach you how to make the tgas.
*********************************************************************************
INSTALLATION
Download V2k's 767 mod available here: http://combatace.com/files/file/15041-boeing-767/
Download. Unzip. Place into mods folders. Allow overwrites.
Known Issues
The aircraft is abit slow to accelerate. Also the cockpit leaves much to be desired That said, this is best left as AI eye candy to run intercept or escort on, or be
pleaseantly suprised when taking off from the airfield.
Stock terrain edits are included so this mod shows. Additional editting will be needed to show in other terrains like Desert3 until the original modder chooses to add it in.
BE CAREFUL IF YOU HAVE AN EDITTED STOCK TERRAIN!!!

CFM powered E-3 Sentry Pack
By daddyairplanes in Other
CFM E-3 Sentrys
by daddyairplanes
This mod adjusts Veltro2k's E-3D release to add all 3 E-3 versions that used CFM-56 engines. Included are the RAF's D model, French AF's F model and Royal Saudi AF's A model.
Installation
Unzip. Install into desired mod molder. Allow merging and overwrites
Known Issues
No there is not an ESM kit for the E-3F at this time. If a 3d modeller is able to assist in the future one may be added via fakepilot. However the French birds are the only ones to use that bit of equipment, so it is somewhat low priority.
Aircraft Included
Sentry AEW.1 (E-3D), E-3F Sentry and E-3A Sentry RSAF
Credits
Veltro2k: original model and original hangar screen for the E-3D
daddyairplanes: ini edit to create E-3A_RSAF and E-3F, new hangars for mentioned aircraft based on original in E-3D, tga and ini edit work. improved D model skin and tga
TK: the original moddable game

Upgrade Kit for C-17 Globemaster III (V2K)
By daddyairplanes in Other
C-17 Globemaster III Upgrade
by daddyairplanes
This mod upgrades Veltro2k's C-17 Globemaster III to incorporate all tactical USAF and all foreign users. It has skins for all 9 C-17 operators as well as time specific in the USAF and a couple of fictional skins (15 in all). The base skin has been updated by Flogger23 and myself, and ini updated by yours truly.
***************************** Installation: ********************************
unzip, copy to mods folder, allow overwrite if needed.
*****************************Known Issues********************************
-The cockpit is nonexistant. These are mainly as AI and the mission set for transports is limited so this will probably not be fixed soon
-while cargo statements are included in the data.ini, there is a wall at the back of the cargo bay that prevents the interior from being seen. If this is remodeled, i will include cargo "weapons" and tweek the positions.
-the Qatar VIP skin does not have "Qatar" decal on the bottom. It left a mark on the right side as a tga and was too screwy looking being on the seam of the skin so i left it off.
*********************Contibutors and Thanks to: ********************
Veltro2K- created the original model
Flogger23- reworked the skin for better looking panel lines and other features
Lazarus1177- pointing out to use jpeg rather than bmp. Learn something new everyday
daddyairplanes- tga work, ini editting, stubborn determination to see more than just one unit on a skin
airliners.net- loading and hangar screens
Dave, Muesli, Flogger23, Viggen, Lazarus1177, allenjb42- other sets of eyes to catch what i screwed up on
I hope you enjoy this mod and airlift the troops right to the enemies doorstep.

Update for TMF E-3 Sentry
By daddyairplanes in Other
USAF/NATO E-3 Sentry Pack
This mod will put the TF33 powered E-3 Sentry in game. It includes the original model and a Block 30/35 model
with the ESM fairings on the cheeks and chin. 31 Historical serial numbers are incluled for USAF, 18 for NATO.
Skins are FAIRLY historical although accurate representation of units by tail stripe was difficult due to
lack of Photos with documentation.

INCLUDED
E-3A with a 77, 83, ODS and 94 skin as well as NATO

CREDITS

IDF/AF "Anak" skin for Veltro's C-97
By daddyairplanes in Israeli Origin
This mod represents the Israeli Air Force's Stratofreighter tankers. It has several historically accurate serials based on available photographs
and a decal sheet set. For simplicity I chose to release this as a skin for the C-97G rather than ini editing the radomes off for a proper B377.
Included
One skin for the aircraft and one folder for the decals
Required
Veltro2k and Wrench's C-97G Stratofreighter mod : http://combatace.com/files/file/15862-sf2-boeing-c-97-cargo-hc-97-ars-pak/
Installation
download, unzip, allow merging. should not need overwrite permission.
Research material: Google image search, IsraDecal 1:72 IDF B377 Stratofrieghter decal set
Credits
Veltro original model and skin
Wrench general layout of decal.ini and tga, skin psd (extra thanks, saved alot of time Sir!)
daddyairplanes fine tune of decals, Anak skin and decal.ini edits
Wrench and NEILS checking that i didn't do too bad a job on this project

Florian's Airbus A310 Family
By daddyairplanes in Other
Airbus A310 Family by Florian
This mod brings the A310 and it's variants into the game. As with most of my airliners, the skins are divided by eras and the airlines are the serials. I have represented airlines that are typically found in European and Middle Eastern skies. This time aroundI have also included the psd for the skin itself andthe xcf file to create airlines in Gimp.
BIG Thanks to Florian who reached out with a new model when he heard I was giving this bird some new clothes!
Includes
Airbus A310-100, -200 and CC-150 aircraft with multiple skins each (and multiple airlines per civil skin)
Flight folder with adjusted Nations and Formation inis
Templates for the skin and tgas
Instructions
unzip and install. place folders where they go and allow overwrite.
IF... you should have the old version, delete and upload this one. It has Florian's new models.
SHOULD work with all version of game, created on a full 5+2 merged install.
Known Issues
the cockpit is the C-47 pit to make it flyable no not realistic, but until we have at least a generic
modern airliner pit or better its what is avail. besides, this is meant for eye candy on the airfields or intercepts not as a main mission bird.
Credits
Florian - model and time to rework said model
DA - skin layout, airline tga work, airliner nation and edits needed for that, minor data.ini adjustment
mue - his LOD viewer deserves mention on all skin projects for the time it saves

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.

DC-8 Series by Veltro2k
By daddyairplanes in Other
Douglas DC-8 series By Veltro2k
This mod features three versions of the Douglas DC-8 jetliner and historical skinsets from introduction in the early '60s through the mid '80s. A little something for eye candy around the airfields or to run intercepts on.
Versions
*DC-8 representing the original DC-8-10/20/30/40 versions with the quieting tubes on the exhaust
*DC-8-50 representing the final short fuselage version and JT3D engines without quieting tubes
*DC-8-60 representing two of the final new build versions with stretched fuselage.
*several historical skinsets for all models
*flight and nations ini edits to allow airliner nation and a spaced out in line formation
Installation
unzip and load into mods folder. allow merging
Known Issues
* The cockpit is the same pit as in all V2k's big jet planes. Not proper but the plane was meant for eye candy not regular missions
* The DC-8-50 model has a seam running along the spine. Until Veltro makes an appearance again this will be there. It is not noticeable at a distance
*This is a huge mod (4 1/2 GB) due to how i've made the skins, or specifically the tgas for the fuselage.It takes a bigger decal to paint the side of an airliner

Updated Boeing 757-200
By daddyairplanes in Other
Updated 757-200 for SF2
This is an update of YEYEYEs SF1 release for use in SF2. I have applied my usual technique to incorporate multiple airlines on one skin per era, with 4 eras from release in the
mid 1980s through the mid 1990s. More may become available later but templates are included for those that don't want to wait on me.
Installation
unzip, open folder titled "Mod Folder" and allow overwrites.
IF YOU HAVE A PREVIOUSLY MODDED FOLDER
1. delete flight and terrains from "Mod Folder". 2 open the "Specials Folder", insert the nations txt file into your Nations.ini and the terrain txt file into your
(whatever)Nations.ini in the needed terrain folder.
templates to wherever you keep files for modding, or delete if you do not desire to mod it
Known Issues
- It is a bit slow on the pickup. while it can take off from a smaller airbase, best to stick to larger fields
- It features the same pit as the 767 and other airliners. we do not have an in house pit that is more appropriate at the moment and so most airliners are stuck looking like generic WWII
bomber pits
- It has a seam on the bottom of the model that is very pronounced given the decal based marking system i use. however this should not be to noticeable unless you approach it from below.
When parked on the ground or viewed from the side or above the seam is not noticeable.
- for all above faults, remember: it is meant as eye candy, not an operational bird! enjoy taking off from Keflavik or Rhein Main and seeing many airlines parked on one ramp

Desert Storm Skins for Dels new C-130
By daddyairplanes in C-130
Operation Desert Storm Skin pack for C-130E/H
This set creates skins for Dels new C-130s and incorporates historical nose art for the E model,
and historical serials and unit markings for both models. Due to lack of images, no nose arts are provided
for the H models. It is intended for use in the ODS campaign, or use it on your own.
Included:
C-130E_SKE - ODS skin, several historical nose arts, new hangar and loading screens, minor ini edits
C-130H3 - ODS skin, new hangar and loading screens, minor ini edits
Installation instructions
1st in either event
Get Dels C-130 Pack located here http://combatace.com/files/file/16427-c-130-hercules-superpack/
Normal install
unzip, allow overwrites (should be minimal), go fly
ODS install
go into your aircraft folder and delete the C-130E and C-130H aircraft
you may also want to go into the Decal folder to delete the C-130E and C-130H folders to save space, but it not necessary
unzip, allow overwrites (should be minimal), go fly
THE ABOVE WILL PROVIDE THE BEST RESULTS. THE AIRCRAFT IN THE CURRENT VERSION OF ODS ARE THE OLDER MODELS, THIS IMPORTS THE NEWEST MODELS INTO THE MOD
In Campaign: no edits are needed to put this aircraft into the current ODS or MOAB campaigns. However the old Herks
originally included in the install should be deleted to make it more likely for the new Herks to appear in game. That
and they are the older models with not accurate skin sets anyhow.
Credits

KC-135 Skin Pack 1: Operation Desert Storm
By daddyairplanes in Other
This skinpack adds in historical aircraft as used in Desert Storm for the A, E and R models KC-135. It is as close as possible with unit markings and features several nose arts.
Included
Skins and decals for KC-135A/E/R models
Cockpit and ini edits to make player flyable
Required
you will need the original KC-135 pack available here
Installation
download and install the above mod per its instructions
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 was originally an AI only aircraft. I added Dels C-130 pit so that it was flyable and I could check my work. That said, it is best to not fly from the cockpit as the Hercules' window frames don't match with the Stratotanker's windows.
UNIQUE FEATURES
As with most of my large aircraft mods, the skins are tga based. this means if you look for a Baby Shamu skin, you will only see a plain grey skin. When you fire it up in game, you will see a mix of ADC Grey and Baby Shamu.
AT THE START OF EACH SERIAL NUMBER IN THE DROP DOWN IS A LETTER, (a) FOR ADC Grey WITH FULL COLOR AND (s) FOR THE CAMO'D Baby Shamu SCHEME WITH SUBDUED MARKINGS
Credits
