One man's waste of time is another man's hobby, and besides this is entirely new content in as far as what is in the game is NOT an M-ATV. 21 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bukain 86 Posted September 25, 2019 When will we have certain Humvee model with shields around the gunner hole? I don't know the exact model number but you know what i mean right? Those Humvees with all sorto shields and metal attach right around the gunner's gun hole lay. I'm referring to the one we have on RHS's mraps gunner holes. I know we can have those by installing certain mods, but we all love quality RHS and love to have rhs quality Humvee hehe:) i also love to have humvee with CROWS too. Becuz as i have looking at the images of current conflict zones, i rarely see humvee without those shields or CROWS attached. Thank you very much. Oh i would love to have Army Ranger units too, with their squad and team (like motor team). I think rhs already have some of what rangers are using, like scar, this particular m4 and g3 uniform. And yes they also wear mbav (eagle) , but sadly only in the past, right? So we just need certain Cyre products, AVS and lv-mbav, then we get Rangers! Plus marsoc dudes wear those too! Btw this new plate carrier that bundled with contact expansion abit looks like AVS in it's plate carrier form , but not much though:( I want that thing in multicamo 🙂 but i think retexture artists will do that. And i think i already talked about rpk here, so that's it. Thank you very much rhs team:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bukain 86 Posted September 25, 2019 I heard Jester's Super Tucano is coming on the way to Horizon Island Defense Force! I'm very happy!!!!!!!!!!! Thx both rhs and jester for cooperation! I have been wanting propeller light attack aircraft in HIDF for so long. I even requested in addon request thread to slap up some munitions on this Caesar thing of HIDF. Now seem like it's even better, the Super Tucano!!! Do you guys also consider putting the A-29 under USAF too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was discussed within RHS right at the start when Jester introduced the project to the mod and we decided no, because there appears to be little actual movement towards the US using A-29 as part of their own operational capabilities in the near future. Most US testing and purchasing of A-29s have been on the behalf of the Afghan Air Force, and more recently a handful for prolonged testing of the Light Attack/Armed Reconnaissance concept. The LAAR program to date, seems to be just kicking the A-29B and AT-6B around in the grass to develop requirements for another competition that may or may not materialise at some indefinite time in the future. The US hasn't fully established if they want a manned or unmanned aircraft for such a role yet. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And they also start to swap the A-10 wings, so the LAAR would unlikely to be contribute in USAF. Anyway thx for the reply Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I had a dollar for this question.. but I'll restate the answer because perhaps we haven't addressed it recently. The current HMMWV in game cannot support the up armored turrets full stop. Also, the up-armor package is much more than the turret, it encompasses changes to the entire vehicle, including suspension, chassis, the body, interior, etc. The up-armored series began officially with the M1114 (and other earlier kits), but you don't see those anymore. The in service armored HMMWVs are the M1151 / M1152 / M1165 (and others). Those are basically an entirely new model, almost nothing can be re-used. So, it is not as simple as just putting on the armored turrets. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I completely understand you guys not wanting to have to retexture with everything else you have going on, but for what it's worth, the above isn't completely accurate. The USAF has its own programs, along with the ANA aircraft, but IF was a separate program. Admittedly, not still on-going, which further validates your reasoning I'm sad to say. If there was a retexture, one done in U.S. Navy livery would be correct. I think I might even still have the BUNOs from when I was very fortunate to get a peak behind the curtain as the program was starting back in 2007. ETA: Completely forgot to thank RHS for adding the Super-T and picking up the project so it could be continued. It's great to have it in-game, regardless of livery. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We never said that there will be or won’t be a usaf livery (down the line) The reasons for this particular inquiry were simple and logistics oriented - should we stick the p3d in gref directly or in usaf and have gref versions dependent on usaf? we choose to get it directly in GREF, for the reasons stated above 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

b00ce 160 Posted September 27, 2019 USASOC might be getting the Tucano in the near future too. I wonder if it would be 160th or if it would sit in the hangar next to the Mi-17s in Virginia. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dragon01 902 Posted September 27, 2019 I can see the USAF Tucano being a GREF-dependent addition, sort of like BRDMs for the Russians. This isn't anything new to RHS. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NAS_Juno 66 Posted September 27, 2019 I make custom units anyway, I just pair USAF pilots with the empty Super Tucano's and call it a day. Horizon Defense Force is in GREF, but they're BLUFOR anyway. Shouldn't stress too much about what unit it falls under. I'm just thankful to have such a nice little COIN CAS plane. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greensnack 20 Posted September 27, 2019 (edited) Is the tac reload fixed in the dev branch? Also noticed a bug that when saf is loaded all m70 ak's use a reload sound that doesn't fit the animation. Additionally the screen gets very dark when turning in and out of the M1117 ASV. Edited September 27, 2019 by Greensnack d Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jester504 109 Posted September 28, 2019 For the foreseeable future the Super Tucano is a GREF-appropriate airplane. It wouldn't make sense to put something used 99% of the time by non-U.S. nations under U.S. in RHS. As much as I (both an American and a big fan of light attack planes) would love to be able to say otherwise, that is the reality right now. The USAF has been talking about and not buying light attack for well over a decade. I won't believe they're serious about it until there are actually numbered squadrons flying one. A limited (<50) number of aircraft may be bought in the next few years by AFSOC and used in a purely advisor-trainer role, but that is the limit of what we can reasonably believe right now.
