MACC,
You'll find the F117, B1 and B2 in a couple of MAIW packages.
I have an F111 from an Aussie pack I found.
Don't think I've seen a Mirage F1 or the Super Etendard though.
Edit:
I did find a Super Etendard in a French Air Force pack that I have, but I'm sure it's not too AI friendly.

can you use normal FS a/c as AI
iu was thinking of using FS2000 aircraft?

Yes you can with mods to the FDE, but it has two MAJOR drawbacks -
1) High poly count
2) Single LOD
2 is particularly important -
A single LOD basically means even if you are seeing the aircraft from a long way off it is still being drawn at the full poly count.
We do ours with around 8-9 LODs, the closest has the highest poly count, this reduces to typically 30-40 polys at the furthest LOD.
The difference -
Assume non AI plane with 20,000 poly and 1 LOD, with 10 planes on the ramp.
Flying into the airport all you see is dots, the computer is drawing 10 x 20,000 polys = 200,000 polys to display them.
On a AI modelled aircraft -
10 x 30 = 300 polys.
Result - better framerates with AI modelled aircraft.
Do a search for woamil11.zip on Avsim for my F-117A that we released a while back. It includes paints for ALL Highthawks plus a traffic file.

Back in business.
I love being a computer nerd.
