[MOD] *NEW* Slot A/C & Wpn (Hurricane Mods)(5.0) - danzigzag - 27.07.2009

[MOD] *NEW* Slot A/C & Wpn (Hurricane Mods)(5.0)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
(Attention: New Slot Only)

UberDemon is hosting all danzigzag MODs.

This is the FIFTH of a series of small mods that aim to add new aircraft to the sim which have weapon additions but are in new slots, this way updated models of many of the existing types can be updated, without changing the original models, thus avoiding cheating and compromise of flight model and Weapons.

Below are the previous releases:
#1.0 (The link is inoperative) (IL-2I, IL-2T)
#2.0 (The link is inoperative) (Ki-43 Series)
#3.0 (The link is inoperative) (Recon Pack: Yak-9R, Bf-109 F-5/F-6/G-8 and Bonus Adolph Galland Bf-109F-2/U1)
#4.0 (The link is inoperative) (TB-3 M-17 & M-34 Cargo and Paratrooper Transport)


In this release (5.0), the following mods are included:

* Hurricane IIb w/additional weapons, including Hurricane IIa options [NEW SLOT]
* Hurricane IIb Soviet Field Modification MOD w/ weapons options [NEW SLOT]
* Hurricane IIc w/ reduced cannon option [NEW SLOT]

Hurricane IIb
=============
(Reference: IL-2 1946 Object Viewer)

Improvements on the Hurricane Mk.I led to the Mk.II series. First the IIa, also with 8 MGs as the Mk.I, had strenghtened wings and allowed for two drop tanks. (This mod has the IIa versions allowing for both Western and Soviet Drop tanks - all of this is *NEW* and accessible as weapon options in the same airframe.). Eventually the IIb allowed 12 MGs, also with the capability for drop tanks. Eventually they were able to carry either 250lb or 500lb bombs, or FAB100 bombs in Soviet service. (The original update from the IL-2 series allowed for 250lb and FAB100s, but this MOD allows also the 500lb bombs as well as drop tanks.)

The following are the options:
* IIa (8xMGs)
* IIa (8xMGs) + 2 Drop Tanks (75gal or 80 liters)
* IIb (12xMGs)
* IIb (12xMGs) + 2x250lb, or 2x500lb, or 2xFAB100 bombs
* IIb (12xMGs) + 2 Drop Tanks (75gal or 80 liters)


Hurricane IIb Field Modification
================================
(Reference: IL-2 1946 Object Viewer)

The Soviets modified their Hurricanes for a variety of reasons, including necessity, and need for increased capabilities. The Hurricane IIbs were modified with Soviet weaponry, including options for 2xMGs + 2xcannons (the original configuration in IL-2 1946), 4xMGs (as a test of capability - present in this MOD), and 4xCannons (the preferred config - also now present in this MOD). The original model in the IL-2 1946 of this great plane did not offer weapon load configuration, but now with this MOD, it offers 4-6 RS-82 rockets, or 2xFAB100 bombs, as it did in operational use.

The following are the options:
* 4xMGs (Limited Field Test)
* 2xMGs+2xCannons
* 2xMGs+2xCannons + 4 or 6xRS82 Rockets, or 2xFAB100 Bombs
* 4xCannons
* 4xCannons + 4 or 6xRS82 Rockets, or 2xFAB100 Bombs

Hurricane IIc
=============
(Reference: Internet and "British Airplanes of World War II" edited by Daniel March)

[Image: dzzmod_huriic.jpg]

The Hurricane IIc offered more potent armament, but used the "hard-to-install" Hispano 20mm cannons with drum-fed ammunition. One of the configurations the IIc received in the field was to simply use the inner 20mm cannons, increasing maneuverability and decreasing weight at the expense of firepower. In the future I hope to make some additional mods to this plane, but for now, this is an additional option.

The following are the options:
* 4xCannons (Default)
* 2xCannons (Reduced)


I hope you enjoy these planes as much as I do.

maybe you should, because heavier payloads=more sluggish flight :wink:
