Some time ago i saw a post about someone wanting more planes into this game's campaign, so i decided to open the games files and see for myself if it was possible for me to do it, it turns out i can, but there were complications, first let me talk about what i did.

First you no longer starts with the J35J and the MiG-21, instead you begin with the F-5A and the F-4D, then i removed the F1A from the campaign, its a good fighter, but its gun is insanely innacurate and its missiles are garbage, Magic2 missiles are more likely to hit what you are not aiming at than what you are aiming(insert dark joke about bombing weddings here), then i started including planes, and i chose a few by going to their folder and seeing if they posess the skin "Ash" in it, i am still looking for all planes that have this skin, then i included planes based of functionality and taste, like the Su-32, i like the Su-32, i dont really like the MiG-29, but i kept it in because it felt wrong to remove it from the campaign for some reason. I ended up including just 15 planes into the campaign(it used to be 25, i will explain soon), most of them are playable,and i made so all playable planes will use all vanilla skins available as in a game's fresh install, but i ran into these two little problems.

1 - shop and plane selection for the mission start will only show up to 9 units at first, the game will show you a 10th unit but currently, i can not select it in the shop for some unknown reason.

2 - as you start a new campaign, you will have no planes available, you should have the F-5A and the F-4D as your starting units, but they arent there, instead you head to the shop and buy both the F5 and the F4 for free, in the first 2 unit slots they will apear as the J35J and the MiG-21Bis, but the names will be correct, for some reason beyond me, i cant seem to fix this and i tried a lot of things.

the 15 units i included may be playable, but you need to buy the first 9 before getting to the Mig-29 and the F-22 or the Su-32. i would apretiate some adivice or help on how to proceed.

P.S.: I havent finished the campaign yet, i just randomly had this urge to go and modiffy the campaign for no reason, i also changed the prices, weapons are cheaper and planes are more expensive, encouraging the player to play on hard or just become an absolute force of nature destroying absolutely everything in its path to buy a new fighter
