calamitychicken 4 Posted July 9, 2019 I have some question's about the FIA uniforms: 1. Will the old uniforms back from when this mod was first announced (I assume they are alpenflage re-textures of another uniform) make it to the release? 2. When the M70 parka model was revealed by H. Kramer, it shows there's a hood attached and lowered. But on the in-game screenshots of the uniform I can't seem to make out any hoods present. Will the in-game uniforms have the hoods? 3. If the answer to my second question is yes then will there be variations of the uniform with the hood up? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

General Yudenich 114 Posted July 15, 2019 Okay i see previous posts you can not answer on my previous post. That could be cool see some new vehicles in Arma 3 anyway. But your FUG and Fiat 6614 still very cool! Waiting for the release of your mod (as the Bohemians carried away by aliens and they no longer hope)😑 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

calamitychicken 4 Posted July 22, 2019 I actually didn't know of the Swiss M70 parka until I saw it here. It was just a few weeks ago I actually brought myself to buy a real one and boy I am not at all disappointed with this thing. I wish someone had incorporated this jacket into the game years ago.

yevgeni89 163 Posted August 28, 2019 If they were to have them I think based on exports the M1 steel helmet would be a big contender or some variant of it , I dont know of many other helmets that were exported in large numbers post ww2, pre ww2 I know czech vz 32 helmets made it as far as chile in south america and swiss m18's made it into argentina as well as german stahlhelms into various south american countries. I think though if they were going switch it up a bit perhaps the m18 wouldn't be a bad choice, as they were phased out mostly by the swiss armed forces in favor of the m70 by the time ofp takes place. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slatts 1978 Posted August 28, 2019 For now, the FIA have captured Soviet helmets available. But mainly wear soft covers. In other news. I've enjoyed working on the Hind and Hip more and more lately. The dynamic loadout is a fun feature to work with. I've set the Hind up to carry an OFP style loadout of 8 AT-6 missiles. But it is possible to change this to various rocket pods and bombs per preference. Same with engine covers, they can be hidden or shown in the Virtual Garage. 14 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AMX-13 is cheap?🤔If I was in charge of FIA vehicles , I'd give them a good old T-62 as an MBT. It is undoubtedly cheaper than the AMX-13 and is in service with many middle Eastern countries. I think it wouldn't be a problem for the FIA to get a few😉 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yevgeni89 163 Posted November 1, 2019 Tanks seem a little out of place for the FIA I could see them having maybe 5, but definitely old really old stuff , like the newest would be some sort of IS2,t-55 or maybe a chaffee/walker bulldog , but the FIA not really being a professional military force with a large budget or even large full time force and more along the lines of a home guard or gendarmerie, lightly armored wheeled or some track vehicles and a focus on light infantry would probably be more plausible. The FIA combined I feel would be about as large or slightly larger than the AAF is but with a quarter of its assets, No Air,No Heavy armor,minimal maritime presence enough to patrol the waters and do customs checks , Few Heavy crew served weapons , few APC's or IFV's .
