F-4E Kurnass pack WIP
dtmdragon replied to dtmdragon's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Anyone know if the AIM-7 used by the Kurnass in 1973 was the standard E model or the E-2 model? The stock TW loadout.ini has the AIM-7E-2 but the stock Yom Kippur campaign has the AIM-7E listed for the F-4E Kurnass squadrons. Google hasn't helped me thus far.... -

Indonesian A-4E & H Skyhawk Pack for Strike Fighters 2 This pack contains nation specific installs of the A-4 E and H model Skyhawk’s used by Indonesia. These Aircraft were obtained from the Israeli Air force via the Alpha Project in 1980. They stayed in service until 2003 when they were replaced by two Russian Su-27SK and two Su-30MK. However the Indonesian Air Force is planning to reactivate the A-4 Skyhawks by buying spare parts after the United States ended its weapons and spare part sales embargo. The aircraft made its final flight on 5 August 2005 Includes 3 different skins: 11 SkU Camo (Tan and Green), 12 SkU Camo (Tan and Blue) & 12 SkU Camo (Tan and Blue) Low-Viz Included is a folder called “2005 plus” which if installed will extend the operational years to 2015 with a ‘very_rare’ availability representing the above proposed reactivation. These are basically the stock E and H Ahit with skins upgraded for SF2 from the Wings over Timor campaign. Credit goes to Third Wire and the ‘A Team’ I made this after Wrench released the SF2 Modern Darwin terrain and I wanted some half decent opposition, to go along with some skins I updated for the SU-27SK & F-5, for the Aussie Hornets and Kiwi Skyhawks to do battle with. INSTILATION: Drop files in to appropriate folders, override when asked to. NOTE: Has only been tested/used in a merged install of ALL SF2 titles but should only require SF2I Credit goes to Third wire for the game and A-4 models, Dev A-Team of Capun and CB Productions for permition to use thier modified skins. -
F-4E Kurnass pack WIP
dtmdragon replied to dtmdragon's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Thanks mate here is the page from the section from the book that mentions the Rockeyes: "The end of the War of Attrition on 7 August 1970 enabled the IDF/AF to expand its Kurnass force, and No 119 Sqn formally became the third unit to operate the type at Tel Nof on 29 October. New tactics and weapons were introduced to counter the Egyptian air defence challenge, including the AGM-45 Shrike anti-radiation missile (ARM) and the Mk 20 Rockeye II cluster bomb unit (CBU). " -

F-16XL for SF2 – F-16E Blk 62 Fighting Falcon 2.1 In March 1981, the USAF announced the Enhanced Tactical Fighter (ETF) program to procure a replacement for the F-111. The program was later renamed the Dual-Role Fighter (DRF) competition. The concept envisioned an aircraft capable of launching deep air interdiction missions without requiring additional support by fighter escort or jamming. General Dynamics submitted the F-16XL, while McDonnell Douglas submitted the F-15E. As we all know the F-15E was chosen... BUT what if the F-16XL had been chosen instead? And so I give you the F-16E/F Block 62 Fighting Falcon. The designation F-16E/F Block 60/62 would have been used had the XL been selected (The F-16E/F Desert Falcon as we know it today wasn't even on the drawing board in the late 80's). Included in this mod are: - F-16E (XL) Blk 62 Fighting Falcon - F-16EM (XL) Blk 62 Fighting Falcon (CUPID mods) - F-16EV (XL) Blk 62 Fighting Falcon (AN/APG-83 AESA radar upgrade) - 8 different USAF squadrons. To Install simply un pack and drop into your mods folder. Notes: - The weapon stations are quite complicated due to the set up on the real aircraft itself and the limitations in SF2 with the maximum amount of hard-points etc. As such it is best to use the default load out from the loadout.ini. That being said if you do want to change it at the loadout screen you need to follow these rules: If the default loadout uses rail launched weapons (Aim-9/120, AGM-65/88) under the inner wings, only change it for another rail launched weapon and vice-versa. This is because the weapon rails are loaded as an EP class weapon that doesn't show up at the loadout screen. - The default 'Attack' loadout is designed for the mass anti-armour mission as that is the kind of CAS mission SF2 generates. However in the loadout.ini file under each 'attack' loadout entry is a CAS loadout option with LGB etc. - There are a ton of different loadout options in the loadout.ini file so check them out with the single mission editor. - Loadouts are based on the F-16C Blk 40/42 but with an F-15E Strike Eagle flavor e.g. AGM-130 - Shadows are deactivated as 'tractor beams' are an issue as it is an older .lod 2.1 Changes: - Added missing 20mm M61A1 Vulcan (PGU-28) to 'Guns' folder. PGU-28 loads generally don't have tracers. 2.0 Changes: - F-16EV (XL) Blk 62 Fighting Falcon added. - Loadout.ini and weapon station fixes. - Cockpits changed to Block 42 type with WAR hud as LANTIRN would have been fully integrated on the jet. - Ferris test skin added for F-16E (XL) Blk 62 Fighting Falcon. - Canopy RCS reducing tinting added as per F-16C/CM Block 40/42. - Semi- conformal AIM-120 station position and angles corrected. - Internal ECM changed to AN/ALQ-165 Airborne Self-Protection Jammer (ASPJ) as was planned for production aircraft. Released under the CA fair use agreement.

Finally, FINALLY my Country (Canada) Makes a Decision; 88, F-35s
dtmdragon replied to Arrow's topic in The Pub
If you listen to first hand interviews with current UK/ US operational F-35 pilots, F-35 test pilots, as well as engineers and staff officers from platforms such as the fighter pilot podcast, the afterburner podcast, aircrew interviews and pilot episodes. It becomes very apparent that the negative narrative of the F-35 is just that. The reality is the ability provided by the software in the flight control programing is at a level not seen before in an operational fighter including the Typhoon or F-22. As is the digital control of the engine thrust. All these pilots state that it is a very agile fighter in its full up flight control software enabled configuration and they have no concerns in a within visual range fight. Listen to them yourselves... -

I was listening to the Level Hell podcast interview of John "Karl" Marks a USAF A-10 Desert Storm vet and he stated that at that stage there was no symbology on the HUD to show where the Maverick seeker was pointing once it had been slewed off the HUD boresight onto a target. To me this translated into removing the Maverick EO TD symbol from the HUD -
