    Description: Yashico Mitsubishi A5M4D Claude by UncleTgt

    This is a revision of Yashico's Mitsubishi A5M4D Claude for CFS 2. Due to the complex nature of the revision this is uploaded as a complete aircraft, but the design credits are Yashico's.

    His original model has been recoloured & shined. The glass material is clearer, & the navigation lights given a shine & transparency. A new airfile has been developed, & the dp file also has been developed with more visible damage effects, & depending on the version, uses Allen's multi-LOD IJN bombs. This version depicts the land-based fighter without arrestor hook or radio mast.

    The 2D panel is originally by Shina, has been made WIN 7+ friendly, & recoloured to match the external paint.

    The dp file makes use of kelticheart's exhaust effects.

    The textures offered are: 9-151 - A silver aircraft Lt Motonari Suho, Buntaicho in 14 Ku, Naning, China, December 1939 to early 1940.

    "ka-130" - An orange training plane from Matsushima Detachment, Matsushima, Japan, February 1943.

    9-176 - A camouflaged A5M2B late, as used by 14 Kokutai, Nanning, China, December 1939 to January 1940.

    B1-32 - A green over grey training plane from 381 Kokutai, Tebrau, Malaya, July - August 1945.

    To install, unzip the download to a temporary location & move/ copy files to the matching folder names inside your chosen CFS 2 install.

    Thanks to: Yashico for a great aircraft. Although several year's old, his models really do seem incredibly well crafted.

    Shina for an excellent 2D Panel bitmap, that just needed re-sizing & tweaking for WIN 7+ systems.

    Allen for his multi-LOD Japanese bombs.

    Allen for his DOSmdlc_2, making shine & mdl size changes possible in WIN7+.

    Martin Wright for so many useful tools, in this case in particular MDLmat allowing aircraft model material transparency & colour changes.

    Shessi for the steer on the best material colours & properties for clearer cockpit glass for CFS2.

    Kelticheart for his exhaust effects, & inspiration for the propeller bitmaps.

    This is freeware and subject to the usual conditions.

    Description: Yashico Mitsubishi A5M4C Claude by UncleTgt

    This is a revision of Yashico's Mitsubishi A5M4C Claude for CFS 2. Due to the complex nature of the revision this is uploaded as a complete aircraft, but the design credits are Yashico's.

    His original model has been recoloured & shined. The glass material is clearer, & the navigation lights given a shine & transparency. A new airfile has been developed, & the dp file also has been developed with more visible damage effects, & depending on the version, uses Allen's multi-LOD IJN bombs. This version depicts the land-based fighter with arrestor hook, but no radio mast (the radio was often removed to improve performance). To do this I used Yashico's A5M4A model & alpha'd out the radio mast.

    The 2D panel is originally by Shina, has been made WIN 7+ friendly, & recoloured to match the external paint.

    The dp file makes use of kelticheart's exhaust effects.

    The textures offered are: 9-122 - A silver aircraft used by 14 kokutai, Weichow, China December 1939.

    3-108 - Houkoku-212 (Teikoku Selmei Go) flown by A1/c Kyosaku Aoki, 12 Kokutai, Anking, China, 1938.

    3-162 - A silver aircraft flown by A1/c Kezuo Tsunoda, 12 Kokutai, Anking, China, August 1938.

A new airfile has been developed, & the dp file also has been developed with more visible damage effects, & depending on the version, uses Allen's multi-LOD IJN bombs.

    You have been a busy little beaver. Improving an already good series of models with your consummate skills can't be easy, but they are superb - well done sir.
