dtmdragon posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
View File TW EE Lightning (All) Gunsight corrections After michaelk's F.1 Cockpit Tweak uploaded recently I realised I never released my TW EE Lightning Gunsight corrections from 2020! So here you are: So after reading the pilots notes for the F.1, F.2A and F.6 and looking at gunsight camera pictures it turns out the gun sights and event markers are all based off the Lightning F.53 So here they are corrected: - F.1, F.1A, F.2, F.2A fitted with "Pilot Attack Sight" - F.3 fitted with "Light Fighter Sight Type 2 Mk. 2" - F.6 fitted with "Light Fighter Sight Type 2 Mk. 3" To Install simply un-pack and drop into the 'objects' folder in your main mods folder.

Since a while, I find myself in this condition (see pic). The RAF roundels are like 4 times the correct size. Happens only with RAF decals (all the other air forces are correct). Also happens on most other RAF planes (like Javelins, Hunters etc). I was thinking, perhaps some mod broken them, but I'm unable to trace back when it started. I reckon someone probably incurred in this already, I'd be grateful to know how can it be solved. Thanks.

Included are three RAF manuals from WWII. "Bag the Hun" is fairly well known and available from other sources. The RAF "Manual of Air Tactics" was more difficult to find, I ended up reaching out to and paying for a copy from the British Archives. If you are trying to fly accurate tactics in a Battle of Britain mission this is for you. The last manual "Tactical Bulletin 15" is actually USAAF pilot Reade Tilley's "Hints on Hun Hunting, issued to allied pilots flying in the Mediterranean theatre, and marks the shift in tactics and formations from the Finger-Four to Line Abreast. Interesting stuff. -

[Fictional] Douglas Dakota C.3 - RAF Desert Camo
Spinners posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
View File [Fictional] Douglas Dakota C.3 - RAF Desert Camo Douglas Dakota C.3 for STRIKE FIGHTERS 2 This is a simple mod of the stock C-47A to create a Dakota C.3 in service with the Royal Air Force in the 1948-1967 timeline. Of course, the Royal Air Force were a big user of the Dakota but not in this fictional desert camo scheme which is loosely based on the original Lockheed Hercules C.1 scheme of the very early 1970's (quite an odd scheme for the times). It is flyable and RECON has been added as a secondary role so that you fly low-level recce missions and watch those MiG's stall and crash! INSTRUCTIONS 1. From the AIRCRAFT folder drag and drop the DakotaC3 folder into your Aircraft folder. 2. From the DECALS folder drag and drop the DakotaC3 folder into your Decals folder. That's it! CREDITS As always, thanks to Third Wire for a great little game/sim. Special thanks to gerwin for this lovely desert camo to which I've simply added black undersides and decals. Special thanks also to russouk2004 for bringing us the smashing C-47A cockpit. And, finally, thanks to everyone in the wider Third Wire community.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-49313406 Royal Air Force personnel will be allowed to grow beards under new rules aiming to promote inclusivity. The hair-raising move, which comes into force on 1 September, will allow serving members to wear "a smart, neatly-trimmed, full set beard". The RAF has insisted members will still have to maintain "high standards of appearance".
