Imperator[TFD] 444 Posted July 19, 2013 Yeah squad level UAV's have been mentioned a few times previously. Hopefully it's something that we'll still see given the relevance of UAV's in combat today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chortles 263 Posted July 19, 2013 I'm actually reminded of that "extended units" list that someone found during the alpha, which mentioned "UAV small drone" and "MQ-4A Reaper". Now, if the big UAV hasn't been cut from the game and is the "MQ-4A Reaper", then I'm going to imagine that "UAV small drone" is the quadrotor... aww yeah.

papanowel 120 Posted July 19, 2013 Nice trailer, I really hope the UAVs will be more usable than the one in Arma2. It would be cool to have a kind of BMPT turret on the new armored vehicle. I don't think the big UAV has been cancelled, it would be a shame don't you think? :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tanks have always been a planned part of the game. There's nothing odd about having textures there for them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trent 14 Posted July 30, 2013 I went PBO diving again and dug out a few icons for units not in the game. Namer APC had pics of its recovery/minesweeper version. The blufor 8 wheeled APC had pics of the medevac and heavy versions. Ghosthawk had an armed version in its folders. Has anyone found where the text content for the field manual is stored? Lots of references in the UI pbo but no actual text. ---------- Post added at 21:13 ---------- Previous post was at 20:54 ---------- Why would a moderator merge my thread with this one? The above has nothing to do with the BIS development blog. Do you really want to reduce the forums until it's nothing but a handful of megathreads? That ensures the least growth & traffic.

gliptal 25 Posted July 30, 2013 Those on the Ghosthawk definitely look like torpedoes... Could they be there to counter the mini-subs threat? Yay! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It has since been the source for newly discovered units, weapons and information regarding the campaign etc, meaning it's the perfect place to post textures found in the files.

It is an armed transport version. With fuel tanks it can carry troops and the extra load of weapons further. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

instagoat 133 Posted July 31, 2013 Textures are pretty HQ. There are textures for greenfor and redfor camo for the CRV too, and all have farsi (or arab indeed?) markings on the crane. It looks like some sort of company logo, maybe the supplier of the crane system? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you look at the AAF officer uniform it\s just the CSAT officer uniform with the green digi camo layered on top. I think the same thing applies to the CRV.

From my research, this version of the Namer is a prototype, the manufacturer says only one was ever made. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
