Sparky's Japanese F-4 Phantom (SOG PF)

Description
No, I will not make Brittish, German or any other skins, don't ask. Check this mod out if you want any of that.

YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO USE THIS FOR COMMERCIAL PURPOSES, EDIT, EXTRACT OR REUPLOAD THE CONTENTS OF THIS ADDON (This also includes repacking it into a modpack)

Merry Christmas!

I'm particularly proud of this project, which I've been working on for a long time.


This addon contains:

-17 JASDF skins inspired on the real counterparts and also some fictional schemes, accesible through the virtual garage
-3 planes*

-"F-4 C Phantom II". What says in the tin. Does not have cockpit name or kill count decals.

-"F-4 C Phantom II (Solo)". This aircraft only seats one and gives the pilot control of all pylons. Due to the game's limitations, you will need a gunner and at least one weapon assigned to him for the missiles and other guided munitions to work. To overcome this, I've simply removed the gunner seat.

-"F-4 C Phantom II (Decals)". Regular F-4 C. Displays cockpit text and kill count decals.

Questions

Q: Do I need SOG PF?
A: Yes.

Q: Does this mod come with pilots or other equipment?
A: No.

Q: Why does it have a gun? The B and C variants did not have one.
A: I know. Since SOG does not have a D variant, I simply gave it a gun and plenty of flares, so the plane can be used in modern settings as well.

Q: Why so many flares?
A: Read the point above.

KNOWN ISSUES

None.

FUTURE PLANS

-Add legacy skins, since I realized way too late that the actual JASDF F4s were painted differently during the 1970s




That's everything for now!

Ah, okay

Correct, B and C variants did not have a gun. However Japan never operated those variants either; they had EJs (specially built for Japan, did not have ballistics computer or other means to guide air to ground armament) and later the EJ-Kai upgrade which reinstated the guidance computer, revamped the electronics and radar and added a propper HUD. The planes from this mod have flares and a gun coded in so the SOG F-4 B/Cs can act as E models. I want to add the legacy skins from the 80s and the EJ Kai variant with its propper HUD but I’m busy with other projects at the moment. @Spartan 208

wait, the screenshot of the virtual garage skins shows the GATE Phantoms and they're depicted as having guns... am I missing something here because as far as I know guns were only included in the -E and later models
