File Name: [Fictional] Boeing/Mitsubishi F/A-18M & F/A-18M2 Super Hornet for the JMSDF File Submitter: ValAstur File Submitted: 08 November 2011 File Category: What If Hangar This is a mod of the Super Hornets E & F from EricJ to make them look like fighter planes from the japanese maritime self defense force. BACKGROUND: The JMSDFs new carrier, the Shinano, which does service in the surroundings of the japanese homeland, was equipped with F-14EJs. In 1999, the 81st Hikotai stationed on the carrier was reinforced with two additional hikotais, the 23rd and the 31st. The JMSDF obtained the Hornet at the same time as the JASDF. Under the designation F/A-18M and F/A-18M2, the F/A-18M2 replaced the F-14EJs of the 23rd and 31st Hikotai while the F/A-18M got designated to two new hikotais, the 3rd and 14th. At the same time, the JMSDF started introducing a new system of serial numbers adjusted to the new ship type. Instead of the standard four-digit serial number system, the planes and helos of the carrier received a new system consisting of the jap. abbreviation for aircraft carrier (kubo), the hikotai number and finally the plane number. Also, as a part of the new system, the fuselage wears the designation and the name of the vessel the plane is stationed on; just like in the US Navy. The Shinano was declared DCV (defender carrier vessel) because the aircraft carrier was an offensive weapon according to the japanese constitution. Using the word "defender" allowed the possession of an aircraft carrier. INSTALLATION: Simply drop the Folders into your Strike Fighters Mods Folder.

¿Existe quizás interés por unos EF-2000 para la Fuerzas Aéreas Argentinas y Chilenas con sus respectivas armadas? Estoy pensando en tres Typhoons en gris para la FAA, FACh y Armada Chilena y un Typhoon en azul para el COAN.

File Name: [Fictional] General Dynamics/CASA C-17 Halcón (Falcon) File Submitter: ValAstur File Submitted: 06 November 2011 File Category: What If Hangar I modded the stock F-16A Netz to make it look like a fictional fighter plane for the spanish air force. YOU WILL NEED SF2:I AT LEAST TO GET THIS PLANE RUNNING! BACKGROUND Spain acquired the Mirage F-1 in 1975 and equipped the Ala 14 in Albacete. After the start of the transition from dictatorship to democracy, the US government sought to improve the relationship to Spain which had a strategic position at the western end of Europe, right in front of Africa. On one hand, they wanted to establish bases in Spain enabling them faster reactions in the middle east and northern Africa. On the other hand they showed their support the new government and their intentions to create a stable country. As a sign of good will, president Jimmy Carter offered the F-16 to the Ejército del Aire at a special price. The Mirage F-1 became replaced by the F-16, which received the designation C-17 Halcón. Both squadrons based in Albacete got equipped with the plane. The F-1s got sold back to France at a significantly lower price, who sold them again to Morocco and Iraq. INSTRUCTIONS 1.

Grumman A-6M Intruder
ValAstur posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Sci-Fi/Anime/What If Forum
Long before the F-14EJ Hyo became part of the JMSDF, allowing the JMSDF to obtain their first carrier after WWII, the japanese Navy wanted to start using planes for coastal defense. Although the JASDF was tasked to protect Japan from foreign aggressors, the high command of the JMSDF wanted to be more "free" from the chain of command. A bit renegade at first glance, the ministry of defense thought that it would enable a much faster response to a threat. In spite of not having fast and agile planes, the JMSDF relied on the capabilities of strike aircraft for anti-ship action, enabling strikes and interceptions of possible incoming invasion fleets. In order to achieve this, the ministry of defense ordered more than 200 of A-6 and A-7 class planes, which were got delivered in the beginning of the 1970s and fitted to the needs of the JMSDF. The A-6M (JMSDF-designation for the Intruder) raised polemics among the american hardliners due to it's referring to the ZERO, the feared interceptor from the last war. Japan only replied: "If you would take a closer look on the writing, you would notice that the new plane is written with a hyphen between the A and the 6, while the Zero was not." Both planes were taken out of commision in 1994 and did not do service on the Varukiri, the new japanese carrier. -
