* This package was modified on 14 October, 2019 to correct a mission naming error.
* This package was updated on 21 August, 2019 to include the new Lexington-class aircraft carrier by Stuart277, and adjust the scenery.cfg file to correct a minor error.
* This package was updated on 20 October, 2015 with a change to one of the missions in order to accommodate Shessi's new PBY-5 Catalina, which I now include in the first package.
* This package was updated on 25 October, 2015 to correct empty ship folders that prevent them from working properly.
This is Part II of the Royal Australian Air Force campaign package. In this package, you will find the GSL scenery objects, anti-aircraft guns, buildings, scenery packages, game sounds, nationality screens, voice packs, and all other equipment required, together with the campaigns and missions themselves. Those whose work has been used for this project include Rhumbaflappy, MaskRider, Pen32Win, Ettico, Erufle, Ajax, Lawdog2360, Blackbird686, Serge Tremblay, Stiz, Wolfi, Xavierb, the AF Team, and TheB24Guy.
This campaign package release is actually a combination of three parts, woven into two campaigns. For the Australian side, the missions entitled "Defense of Australia" are a converted CFS1 campaign by Mauro Giacomazzi, fully updated for CFS2 using the newest airbases, aircraft, and other items. The missions entitled "Royal Australian Air Force" are the original missions from "In Defense of Australia" campaign, fully updated for CFS2 in the same fashion. The third and final portion is a series of seven carrier-based missions written by the now-deceased-but-not-forgotten Talon that chronicle some of the sorties flown by the US Navy in this time period. This campaign update would not have been possible without the excellent work of the original designers of "In Defense of Australia."
The Australian side contains two dynamic campaigns that allow you to play twenty-one of the twenty-nine missions, or twenty-six of the thirty-six available for the Australian side. Playing the Australian side will allow you to fly as part of RAAF 75th Squadron, trying desperately to defend Port Moresby from the Japanese onslaught. These missions will cover bombing and strafing runs on airbases, escorting USAAF and RAAF bombers, and repeatedly defending the skies of Port Moresby from the Japanese. Your performance in these missions, coupled with elements of random chance, will provide a different experience each time you fly the campaign.
The Japanese campaign is fourteen missions, thoroughly updated as the Australian missions are. However, this campaign remains in the original condition. For the Japanese, you will often fly on fighter sweeps and defend your airbases from attack by RAAF fighters as well as USAAF bombers, while also escorting Japanese bombers on bombing missions over Port Moresby. As always, this has been also been updated by using newer airbases, aircraft, and objects to enhance and modernize what is already a great campaign package.
