Arma 2 Addon request thread

@RogueMerc
Agree with you for the BMP update but not on the Dozor.

I don't really understand what you mean with replacement of the URAL with Dozor. It's not the same category!
URAL is the main truck of the CDF army, it's use mainly for supply transport, and sometime for troop transport when there are no need of BMP, BTR or BMD.
Dozor-B is use mainly for reconnaissance and some little troop transport.

I thinck it's more like an BRDM2 than an URAL.
It can be use for military police or special force.


@The Blinck
I don't thinck a BTR90 or a T90 is needed for CDF army. They have multiple stock of T72,T80, Btr70,BTR80. So I don't thinck Chernarusse government will buy new tank like T90 or BTR90.
Chernarusse is not Russia.

I got confused didnt mean replace the truck(Ural) i meant the jeep the CDF use( i always get mixed between these two)

Edit:
Totally agree with your last post Rogue.

Yes, upgrade but no totally new tank like the T90!
Moreover I don't think Chernarussia relation with Russia is really good.

thats what i thought it seems highly unlikely that russia will supply the cdf with t90 when russia supported the insurgents.

The Green Sea is a lake.

I'll be pedantic here. The only location that would make sense for the 'Green Sea' to be would be the Caspian Sea. It's classified as the world's largest lake by some and a sea by others. So strictly speaking it's both a sea and a lake.

The only body of water the CDF borders is a lake, so a blue-water navy is out of place.

The only problem there is the U.S Navy managed to operate the USS Khe Sanh from the Green Sea. So a precedent has already been set by B.I. Perhaps one of IceBreakr's motherships dropped it there.

So what do we agree most on?

It's a lake, no a sea, no pond...no hang on a paddling pool; oh forget it!

I didn't imagine my reply would attract such attention on the topic. Thanks guys, top class entertainment as usual.

Back on-topic:

I think what everyone is forgetting is Chernarus is an Eastern European country, and should have a military that represents that not that of a rich Western European country. Which means AF wise, F-16s at the most and thats a push, looking more at Mig-29s and ex-soviet stuff. Army wise again looking at upgraded AK-47/74 and upgraded Soviet vehicles (Maybe with the help of NATO). And Naval wise looking at Coastal Defence ships not Carriers and destroyers... Its in the name CDF. Focus should be defence.

A very good point Warden. They're not going to have a big budget and unless I'm mistaken. Chernarus is a recovering country which cannot dedicate massive amounts of funds towards military spending. Even though defence of course is a very important matter. I think ex-soviet gear makes the most sense.

In regards to coastal defence. I like the idea of fast-attack vessels, such as a fast-attack patrol boat. Perhaps something similar to this hydrofoil design by the Americans (now defunct):



Pegasus-class hydrofoil

Even though we're looking at a brown-water navy, the PHM-1 boat is classed as a green-water navy vessel. So potential perhaps for regional power projection?

In fact there's a guy here that was working on it:

Punkrocker's PHM1 Pegasus Class HydroFoils

Alternatively, there's an "ArmA" addon that is listed as being compatible with "ArmA 2"/"OA":

It's an addon originally made by [APS]Gnat. Download it from Armaholic here:

Well i think we can agree that CDF will probably use ex-russian/soviet gear

unless there could be storyline to it say for example the CDF sell of obselete gear or after defeating the insurgents they confiscate a cache of money given by russia in a show of support.

[Fingolfin]

I think Georgia is a real world country that can be compared with Chernarus.

Here's their equipment and it's quiet similar to the CDF.

In my opinion...

- BMP-1
- T-80 (already done by RHS)
- BTR-80
- HMMWV (uparmored, armed with a PK) as an replacement for the UAZ
- MRAPs (leased from the US Army for the peacekeeping troops in Takistan)

... would make most sense.


Regarding the navy a mixture of old western and old soviet mineweepers, torpedo and patrol boats would be best. Maybe one or two small landing ships for the naval infantry.

I will had:
_SA6 (already here)
_BMP2 (maybe some upgraded)
_T72 (some upgraded)
_BMD2/1 (RHS addon)

Request for M1A1 or M1A2 or M1A1 CSAMM in desert and digital MARPAT.

[[GR]Operative]

I'm requesting the Colt Automatic Rifle.
Known also as the Diemaco C7 LSW, Colt LMG, (Danish) LSV M/04, (Dutch) LOAW, it's in use by the Danish, Dutch and Mexican forces, aswell other ones.
Here's a link to a gallery of photos Pixagogo - DIEMACO C7 LSW (a must see), to Colt Official Site (wich contains the Specifications of the weapon) and to Mongo's Machine Gun Pages (that contains the Colt Automatic Rifle Manual).
Some of the images are from older versions that had the bipod installed further ahead in the barrel.
The version I'm requesting is the newer one, with the barrel installed in a pin that protudes below the handguard abd with the flat-top/removable carrying handle, exactly like the one in Colt website and in the photo gallery.

No need to include Beta C-Mags and such, but I must admit that SureFire Quadstack magazines would be nice (60 rounders, for sure).

Since the weapon does already include Park-Hale Bipod, carrying handle and forward grip, few variations would do, like including a Taclight (probably the VLI), IR illuminator/designator (like the AN-PEQ/2) and some optic (as the weapon counts with one rail on the top of the receiver and twin rails in the sides of the front sight post).

I was thinking about the M203 grip too, but nevermind.

Thanks in advance.
