I've done a quick search and found no news on this in the forums. Here you go! Check out the new Japanese Self Defense Force DLC for ArmA2. Everything is still under wraps it seems.

Did you, err, perhaps miss something ? ;-)
That page doesn't have anything on the Japanese Self Defense Force from what I can see. Just stuff from the Czech Republic DLC.

Alright, I know I should keep up the suspense, but read this post and compare the screenshots with and without "fog of war". The former announcement had the fog of war sort of removed when they ended the baiting, but they have since rewrote it into normal DLC:ACR announcement without the baiting they did before with so called "JSDF"... just read through the whole thread and the ACR thread if you don't believe me ;-)
What about stuff like the Komatsu LAV? It's labeled in the picture, but it was actually just a prank or something?
It was a troll from BIS.. the JSDF DLC rumor turn out to be the recently announced ACR DLC.. in short, there is no JSDF DLC
Aww that's too bad. I got excited for nothing.![]()
Yes, it was a BIS prank, they played us all along like with the Iranian Hackers when they announced Arma III last year or the Take On Helicopters Aprils Fools Day announcement. They first showed a teaser image of Japanese flag superimposed on Arma II logo back in April the 1st, everybody thought it was a only good April Fools joke, then a month and a half later they showed those pictures you linked, which the community promptly deciphered to contain Czech units and vehicles (Pandur, Dingo, CZ805BREN, Sa Vz.58 - so no Komatsu there, see the thread I linked, although the Komatsu can look superficially similar to Pandur II...), and a few days later they announced the DLC:ACR proper (with the photos correctly labeled as ACR vehicles and weapons). Since then the relabeled proper announcment has been rewritten into a normal DLC:ACR without the relabeled screenshots but with normal screenshots). It's just confusing a bit now if you missed the discussions few weeks ago, since they removed the relableled "fog of war lifted" screenshots from the announcement but left the old JSDF fog of war troll announcement there...(or perhaps that's another ruse and they will all surprise us with JSDF as well
Still, seems their ruse did work out pretty well ;-) I am still waiting for the Take On Zombies april's fool prank to turn out into a real game though ;-)
