Northrop F-5EJ Tiger II
ValAstur posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Sci-Fi/Anime/What If Forum
During the late 60's, the JASDF expressed it's wish for a small and swift plane for close air support and patrol duties. Northrop offered it's F-5E. Only other competitor was the european AlphaJet. But it lacked the supersonic capabilities the Tiger II was able to offer. It's maintenance was also far easier. Northrop pointed out, that far more countries use the Tiger II than the AlphaJet. Japan ordered three charges of the plane, 72 planes at all. Also eight F-5B as trainers were part of that deal, but Mitsubishi got that contract for their T-2. The first charge arrived in 1973 and was assigned to the 301st Hikotai. The second charge delivered in 1975 became part of the 23rd Hikotai in blue camo. The third charge was planned to enter service in 1976 in the 304th, but a supply shortage concerning the engines and the ejection seats led to a delay. Northrop estimated the delivery of the third charge within the first months of 1977. The Tigers of the 301st ready to scramble En route Let's get 'em boys! Can't get much closer! This guy is good! ...but down he goes! Safe return home. No wingman lost -

[Fictional] C-24 / C-24B Super Hornet This is a mod of the Super Hornets E and F from EricJ to make them look like planes from the spanish air force. BACKGROUND: In 2010, command of the EDA asked for the possibility of replacing their EF-18As and Bs with the more advanced E and F versions. Diplomacy made it possible that the Obama administration would take the old planes back and make a special offer. In 2012, the first squadrons received the new planes. Since the former Hornets wore the designation "C-15", the Super Hornets ought to have been designated C-15VA and CB-15VA, but these designations were too long so the Super Hornets were then called "C-24". INSTALLATION: Simply drop the Folders into your Strike Fighters Mods Folder. ALL READMES FROM THE ORIGNIAL MODELS ARE INCLUDED. CREDITS: EricJ – Purchased Model of F/A-18F from http://www.mesh-factory.com, Main texture artist, ini editing. FastCargo – 3D model work for all versions. Used some of his images for reference.

Since I don't do real world skins that often... I hope you like these ones. I saw them searching for something else and thought that I must do them. Possible that somebody created them already. F-4K Phantom FG.1, 43rd Squadron RAF, 70 Years Anniversary skin without Spinestripe... ...and with it -
