View File [Fictional] Lockheed F-19A 'Sniper' for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 Lockheed F-19A 'Sniper' for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 This is a simple mod of the stock MiG-19S to create a fictional Lockheed F-19A 'Sniper' in service with USN & USMC Aggressor Squadrons in the 1974 to 2003 timeline. BACKSTORY Only during the mid-1980's was it revealed that an unexpected outcome of President Nixon's historic visit to China in 1972 was the purchase of 30 Shenyang J-6 fighters for use as Aggressor aircraft. The aircraft were clandestinely delivered early in 1974 with the US Navy taking 22 aircraft and the US Marine Corps taking the balance of 8 which entered service with VMFT-401 in April 1976. In service, the aircraft were supported by specialist teams from Lockheed and were eventually designated F-19A with the unofficial name of 'Sniper'. INSTRUCTIONS 1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the F-19A folder into your Aircraft folder. 2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the F-19A folder into your Decals folder. That's it! CREDITS As always, thanks to Third Wire for a great little game/sim. Special thanks to Stary for the MiG-19S cockpit. And, finally, thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.
