Imagine if he releases SF3....but it is completely locked for messing around. Did anyone consider that? Maybe we do not want SF3 at all.

in Deltas, pylons are the same for all missiles. I think Dels want different pylons for different types of missiles. I think It is not working that way. When we were working on F-22 we had similar issues. However, we needed only launchers for Sidewinders and AMRAMs. But as far as I remember, I wanted to add BRU-61 (MER) for GBU-39 as a part of the aircraft model, but it did not work. But pylons work in internal bays, just make multiple pylons (with rails as one part) and use ModelNodeName / HideNodeName as you suggested in first post.

Either DAT improved their model, or this is not DAT at all. As it does not look DAT to me. But I might be wrong if they updated the model.

View File Vietnam Air War - Intruders Grumman A-6A, A-6B, A-6C Intruder This is a third-party add-on for the Grumman A-6 Intruder in a few variants as used by the US Navy and US Marines during the Vietnam War. Mod is based on GKABS mod, but it is an entirely separate entity. That should not be mixed with any other A-6 Intruder mod. It is designed for and works only in the SF2 series. And will never work in SF1. This mod offers my personal approach to the Intruders in the Vietnam War. It is not intended to replace or compete with previous packs. I recommend testing it before removing any older mods, as you may prefer one over the other. Basic modding skills are required to run this mod. (copy/paste, mod folder structure, etc.) A fake pilot is required to run this mod. Install: Copy and paste specific folders into their respective destinations. A fake pilot is required to run this mod. All skins are in 3072x3072 format. You can easily resize as needed. Decals represent historically correct serial numbers assigned to aircraft during their service for a specific year, unit, etc. But as in many of my packs, this is all constant work in progress and updates of historically correct BuNo and serial numbers are possible. What is unusual (as for the mod made by me) is that it is based mostly on decals. So generally, there is one skin set per aircraft. And all markings are done via decals. There is also camouflage paint via decals for VA-65 in 1966 and VA-85 in 1965. You play it, you will find it. I have made this mod separately for USN and USMC. So in a single mission, Marines will not start from the aircraft carrier. But, A-6A '69 has dual service in userlist.ini. - This is required for one Marine squadron to appear in the years 1971-72- VMA(AW)-224 was part of the CVW-15 on board USS Coral Sea. This is a model done by GKABS. We were working on it some time ago; this mod comes with the same models as the original mod, except one. US Navy model marked as '69 has built in AN/AVQ-10 Pave Knife. Another big change in the model is the reworked weapon stations. And specific stations - MERs to accommodate various loadout options. Now on the outer wing pylon, you have the option to load two different sets of bombs on the front and aft rows on the MER. Weapon stations are made in a specific manner. So, a quick explanation. Station group 1 serves as the main outer wing pylon, but to make things a little more fun there is also station group 2-3 that surpass group -1 - Reason - to load mixed load on MERs. So you can have front row with a different load and aft row with a different. All is quite easy to understand and easy to operate. There is one thing that you have to remember, you should not load 2 pieces of ordnance on those (front and aft) positions - this is a simple walk around the problem so .... on those two stations, the group should be loaded 4 or 6 pieces of ordnance. You play, you will see. Also, I recommend relying on loadout.ini. loadouts are based on typical loadouts by the USN and USMC during the Vietnam War. Of course, with all game engine limitations. Ok, more details. In-game you will have A-6A '65 and A-6A '69 for USMC A-6A '65 and A-6A '69 for USN A-6B mod 0 and so-called A-6B mod 0-1 - AGM-78 capable aircraft. A-6B PAT/ARM - final variant for SEAD operations, A-6C Intruder equipped with a TRIM fuselage pod for FLIR and low-light TV cameras. Weapons included covers all weapons in loadout.ini. Those are common weapons from Ravenclaw's factory. Located in the WeaponsCommon folder. It is important to copy all MERs, TERs and AVQ-10 files from the Weapons folder to make this mod work properly. You have to download all 3 parts to make this mod work. Credits GKABS model yakarov79 - some parts of the model, launch rails, Pave Knife, Pilot models, templates, skins, decals, research and some other stuff that might be worth mentioning..but I do not remember at the moment. All weapons are made by Ravenclaw. I have included in the mod all weapons that are listed in the loadout.ini. files. refueling pods made by Nyghtfall and borrowed from his A-4 pack. Have fun.

New skins, bump maps, and specular maps. New flight model This particular pack focuses on the Cobra used in the Vietnam War. It si similar in construction to my old pack from 2016.

As I am now and then finding new information about airframes, units, nosearts. Basic modding skills are required to run this mod.

this one is dated 1969(?) but this is US...F and C. According to trustworthy sources (but have not checked it personally), 354th TFW had in inventory the following aircraft... 54-1828 F-100C-15-NA, this one had no red band when photographed in Itazuke 54-1877 F-100C-20-NA 54-1921 F-100C-20-NA 54-1942 F-100C-20-NA 54-2049 F-100C-25-NA had red band but no Kansas state outline and 2 color serial number on tail

Yes one or two in Kunsan had teeth. Have somewhere one picture from “flying home” also notice Kansas state outlined on red band. And lack of ANG crest

Do not use the TANK335_F100 skin from the D model in C. I can see that the green paint is not aligned. Skins might look the same between C-D, but there are a lot of differences.

I have made this mod based on available info. Maybe some other MD500 users had different packages of equipment. But in South Korean Army Aviation. MD500 could be equipped only with the M27 weapon subsystem. (Actually, Korea ordered only two sets of M27, at least to my knowledge.) But the TOW 'Defender' variant could be equipped with M260 launchers.
