S73 Co-Belligerent Air Force textures by Sopwith Chameleon
This set of textures have been compiled in order to fit the Savoia Marchetti S.73 with Alfa Romeo AR126/RC10 engines v2.1 by Stefano Meneghini, & converted for CFS 2 by UncleTgt. No other changes to the textures have been made.
This is a repaint by Sopwith Chameleon & is based on the North Africa scheme used by SM81 aircraft of the 600 Squadriglia, North Africa 1943.

Features highly detailed historical virtual cockpit with full military equipment working through Tacpack, high resolution gauge textures, fully functional and clickable VC cockpit controls via custom XML gauges and XML animations. Multi-lod and accurate flight dynamics included.
The Veltro was derived from the C.202 Folgore with the installation of a german Daimler-Benz 605 serie engine. Fast, manouvrable, reliable, it had comparable performances with the Bf109G series. Served mostly in the mediterranean theatre 1943-44.
Top speed of 640 km/h at 5600 m, Climb to 2000 m in 1'28'', to 6000 m in 5'55''.
Armament was of 2x12.7mm nose section plus 2x 20mm in the wings.

Messerschmitt Bf109G-6 Erla Haube by Design Team Daedalus
Unit: Stab III./JG26 Vendevile, France March 1944
Pilot: Major Klaus Mietusch 75 victories and 4 unconfirmed - 60 in the West including 13 four-engine bombers. Shot down KIA September 17. 1944.
In late summer of 1943 two improvements were made to improve all around pilot vision which was restricted by the standard Bf109 canopy and all metal head armor.
The Erla Haube canopy was introduced at the end of 1943 which eliminated to heavy canopy framing and improved the pilots vision in all direction. Many in-service Bf109-G's were retrofitted in the field, but the overwhelming majority were factory installed and it became the canopy for all following Messerschmitt marks.
Also, the so called Galland Panzer head armor with the upper section made of bullet proof glass improving the pilots vision to the rear became the production standard and again, was retrofitted to many 109's already in field.
Even so, there was no "standard" Bf 109G-6, as the production included different radio equipment, oil cooler types, antenna masts, etc. which were available at different times during the production runs. So each model we have created has its own unique features.
Pstrany developed the models using Paul Rebuffat's Messerschmitt model - with permission - as a starting framework and updated the shape, and added a plethora of details, new parts, and ideas. Pstrany also developed the models for the drop tanks, weapons and racks.
Captain Kurt created paints for each, the 2D instrument panel, the individual .dp files, the air files and the aircraft.cfg files.
Mav SCASM edited each model so that they have animated wing slats, drop tanks, and other features, as well as optimizing models for the best possible frame rates. Mav also developed the idea for the 2d panel to be offset for the Revi gun sight to match the CFS2 reticle.
We have all benefited from the assistance and guidance of others in the community. Special thanks to Wolfi and Huub Vink for their kind assistance and to all who have contributed their knowledge directly and indirectly.
