This mod also includes the Modern Carrier Mod integrated. It includes A Nimitz Class Supercarrier, A Kuznetsov Class Russian Carrier, and a generic Wasp Class Carrier. - Can now rebase to allied city states, and do Keyhole project (wonder) to see all cities once satellites is researched.

***Compatability***
Does not play well with the following mods:
RED Modpack - Skin & Size conflicts, Ethnic Units - Skin conflicts
DOES NOT REQUIRE USE OF MODIFIED DLL - Should work with most mods!

**Version 4.0 Change Log **
Added the following Aircraft -
F-8 Crusader, Heinkel He-111, Messerschmitt Me-262, Junkers Ju-88, Heinkel He-177, Heinkel He-219, Messerschmitt Bf-110F4, Junkers Ju-87, SB2C Helldiver, F2A Buffalo, B-25 Mitchell, Hawker Tempest, Westland Whirlwind, de Havilland Mosquito, Avro Lancaster, Vickers Wellington, Hawker Hurrican MK II, SAAB J21, Ilyushin IL-4, Tupolev TB-3, Yakovlev Yak-9, Albatros D.III, Aichi D3A Val, Mitsubishi Ki-21 Sally, avoia-Marchetti SM.84, Bristol Blenheim, Potez 630, Breguet 690, Aero A-102, PZL P.23 Karas, Hawker Typhoon

Version 5.0 Change log
Changed over to Modded DLL version. For other mods that use WHOWARDS modded DLL (like Civ IV diplomacy features, or YNAEMP map pack, etc. You can go into the modinfo file for my mod, or their mod, and delete the line requiring the DLL be loaded, and work off the others DLL file)

YOU CAN ONLY HAVE 1 MODDED DLL FILE WORKING AT ONE TIME OR YOUR GAME WILL CRASH ----YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

For a non-DLL modded file goto the manual download links in the description and download my more vanilla version of the mod at Mod DB.

Added Zeppelins, and Tu-22M. Fixed bombing on multiple aircraft for bombing cities by removing highest promotion. (300)

Helicopters can now fly over coastal regions and will only embark when in Deep Water. (Deep Ocean tiles)

Author's note - While I wanted to keep my mod DLL free, I feel this added too much to air units to have helicopters work correctly. Rest assured my next mods will not have DLL Required, but will require this mod and will work off the DLL that way. Whoward included a LOT of awesome things into his modded DLL that Firaxis should have put in from the get go or at least in a patch. If you need help figuring things out, let me know or the community. ---enjoy

Version 6.0 Change Log

Added Panavia Tornado GR1, Dassault Mirage 2000
FIXED - Promotions. Got rid of non-air promotions that let someone demolish a city with 1 strike (like a nuke). Changed them all around for more balance.

Added the TOP GUN wonder (be the first to build it!) --- This wonder gives a custom promotion for fighters and bombers produced in the city it's built in. Along with Military Aircraft hanger, you will get 4-5 XP promotions up front, plus the top gun promotion. Read civlopedia for more info. (I even took a sound clip from the movie). It requires Steel (Iron) and Oil to build (1 each) and can only be built by 1 civ. It is a bit expensive, but worth it if you like the air promotions.

Version 7.0 Change Notes

Added:
Charles de Gaulle Carrier for France - Kuznetsov artwork (because no one wants to make art for this ship)
Queen Elizabeth Class Carrier for England - Illustrious WWI model (again no one wants to make art)
Changed generic "Wasp" class carrier over to "Meier" class carrier (Wasp class is an Amphibious Assault Ship in my next mod (Naval Units)
Kamikaze fighter for Japan WWII era - attacks like a missile, behaves like a plane (suicide unit)

Fixed:
AH-64 America bug - you can now buy one as America, and buy Huey's
F-15 attack animation bug
Fixed some promotions

Experimental (needs testing)
Wrote an SQL file updaing the database if any new Civ's are added that have aircraft on my list, like Canada, Israel, Australia, etc. I was able to purchase/produce an F/A-18C as Canada
Wrote an SQL file updating the AI to heavily persue Air units. Hopefully this will work, and air battles will actually be a thing vs other Civ's and City States.

Version 7.1 and 7.2 - Added AH-1 Cobra and UH-60M helicopters

Version 8.0 - Added B-1 Lancer and Su-34 Fullback

This mod is awesome. However, sometimes it crushes when I perform airsweep. I used this with Venetian Ca'Do'Te(or something) mod.
The unit that was in the "future tech" technology is not available for me, I've had Future tech repeated a few times and had all the alluminums and oils in the world at my disposal.
 
Crossbonez, I'll take a look at that - for airsweep/recon, make sure you are in DX10/11 version of the game, with gpu texture decode ticked ON.. it works for most people.
 
Beautiful unit models definitely downloading this, nice job:goodjob:

Thanks!

New patched version is on Steam Workshop or Mod Database (mod DB)

I can't post the new patch here, the file is too big (at 15 MB)
 
Just fired up the latest version and used "Really Advanced Setup" to have a play with many of your units, works perfectly. Airsweep/recon works well for me, the Nimitz Class Super carrier and Kuznetsov Class Russian Carrier beautiful. Thought I'd push the boundaries and combine with "Ethnic units" (yeah I know I shouldn't) couple of skin problems but only a couple I can live with that as "Advanced Air Units (v 2) "is a must have. Brilliant :cheers:
 
Downloading v3.7. Kind of excited. This is the best mod so far.
 
Thanks everyone.. I just finished adding about about 30 more aircraft. Check out Version 4.0 on Steam Workshop or on Mod DB - File is too big for CivFanatics

Another 30 more units, legend :worship:
 
You are the best man!
Can you add air defense systems? Such as S-300 and S-400. Also, the Topol-M would be cool even though is not related to aircrafts but still a missille. :D

Probably not in this mod, but I have an upcoming mod for ground and sea units. Anti-Air is on my list

If that mod will be compatible with this one, you will become a legend man.

Version 5 is crashing on my PC. Probably I'm doing something wrong.
 
so, do a search in your documents/civ 5/mods directory for *.dll
Any mods that show up using a CvGameCore_Expansion2.dll that you are using the same time as my mod will cause the game to crash.

Depending on the mod, it could be that both the DLL's are identical and you can just remove the requirements for the DLL either from my .modinfo file or the other mod's file. I know for sure I am using Whoward's version 66 of the modified DLL (it is backwards compatible).

So for instance, I use Civ IV Diplomacy mod. I go into Civ IV Diplomacy mod folder, open up the .modinfo file, and delete the line requiring the use of the .dll file (both are Whoward's DLL file). To go farther, I delete the DLL out of the mod directory. I then run the game, knowing that my mod is the only one using a modded DLL, and both my mod and the Civ IV Diplomacy work great together. This is the only solution I have found so far. If you are unsure if a certain mod uses Whoward's DLL, check their page, or ask the author, or just give it a delete and see if it works. You can always unsubscribe or replace the mod if it doesn't to get a fresh copy.
 
@crossbonez - Not only will it work with my air unit mod, it is going to require it just because the air unit mod has the modified DLL. I could make a base mod to enable other like communitas.. but not sure what I want to do yet.

You can start digging Russian weapons. I couldn't find any mod about Russia. :p
