Request: Force Recon units

Recommended Posts

It seems like the flexibility offered with Arma 3 will allow modders to make some pretty damn good unit replacement mods, and I would really like to see a good Force Recon replacement made.

As much as I wish I could do this myself (The extent of my modding capabilities extends only to about 4 years of Source SDK level design experience, nothing with 3Ds Max), I can still offer help in the form of a definitive kit list and tons of reference photos if needed.

Just to name the basics:

-Headgear-

  • MICH 2000
  • Norotos 3 Hole Shroud OR Norotos Universal Shroud
  • Surefire Helmet Light
  • MS2000 strobe
  • Norotos TATM arm OR Norotos AKA2 arm (Rhino is no longer issued)
  • Helmet's are either painted OR worn with the FSBE II Reversible Cover
  • PVS-14's with Wilcox J-Arm OR Norotos Dual Dovetail Adaptor
  • MSA Sordins OR Bowman Swimmers Headset (Part of the FSBE Maritime Shooter Kit)
  • Ops Core straps (Either H or X nape) are fairly common

-Second Line-

  • Allied Industries FSBE II MBSS w/ FSBE II PACA (The khaki / sand colored ones work as well)
  • Eagle Industries FSBE II Land CIRAS
  • Eagle Industries FSBE II RRV w/ FSBE II PACA (Not as common)
  • BAE RBAV-SF in coyote brown (Not as common)
  • Eagle and Allied Industries FSBE II Pouches

-First Line-

  • Eagle Industries FSBE II Warbelt w/ suspenders
  • Eagle Industries FSBE II E&R Bag (More commonly referred to as the "fanny pack" or "nut ruck"), these sometimes serve as the IFAK in a unit's SOP
  • Allied Industries FSBE II Leg Panel
  • CSM Gear Dump Pouch
  • TFSS, if on a VBSS type mission
  • SEA MKII HABD w/ FSBE II SEA MKII pouch, if on a VBSS type mission

-Firearms-

  • M4A1 w/ 14.5" barrel, KAC 7" RIS
  • EOTech 553 in FDE
  • ACOG TA11E or TA11F
  • Insight PEQ-16A in FDE
  • Insight PEQ-15 in FDE
  • Surefire M951, 961, 900
  • Insight SU-233 (M3X) in FDE
  • KAC Vert Grip

Keep in mind, Force Recon and Recon Battalion are two separate units.

Hope this helps, and it'd be awesome if this got made.

I can almost guarantee that FORECON / MARSOC guys will be made but most modders are waiting till full release to make really in-depth and detailed mods like you've described. Regardless, I'd love to see it made as well.

Also, requests in request thread, this will get locked, etc.
