0-1 BIRD DOG

0-1 Bird Dog Series for Thirdwire SF2/SF2V/SF2E
Cessna 0-1 Bird Dog

The 0-1 was a two-place observation and liaison aircraft developed from the commercial Cessna Model 170 in 1949. Originally designated L-19s, Bird Dogs were used by the U.S. Air Force, Army and Marine Corps for such tasks as artillery spotting, front-line communications, medical evacuation and pilot training. In Southeast Asia, the O-1s became a USAF forward air control aircraft. A forward air controller (FAC), often an experienced fighter pilot, flew in a specific geographical area so that he could readily identify enemy activity. If a controller observed enemy ground targets, he marked them with smoke rockets so for attack by fighter-bombers. The FAC remained on the scene to report bombing results. The single-engine O-1 was slow and vulnerable to enemy fire. This, along with its limited range and small payload, led to its eventual replacement by the twin-engine O-2 Skymaster and OV-10 Bronco.

Includes every 0-1 variant A, B, D, E, F, & G (except the O-1C) with multiple texture sets for the US Army, USAF, USMC, VNAF and The Ravens, detailed cockpits and weaponry. Every effort has been made to provide the highest quality in textures, flight model and detailed cockpit/external model.

The package has been created with the SF2 game engine in mind but has been tested in the WOx series as well. Although it works in WOx, some moving of files will have to be made by the user in order to make it work.

This pack adds highly detailed aircraft, cockpits and weaponry to your SF series. All variants are included with the exception of the O-1C. Snoopy is back!
