Will the tower feature a barrier to stop you or AI from falling off ?

Off course it will do so

that's been the first thing i made, before i climbed up the

first time onto the tower. Noone can get me up onto a 19 meter tower without such a barriere being there  

:edit - forgot to add:

The only place where there's no such a barrier is at the ladder

entrance - else this could become a problem when climbing up onto the tower.

OMG! OMG! I see you fixed up the LT Damages techical. Very nice work. I especially like the last pic with Frontier corps by the fire. I noticed that now there is yet another nice AK variant and those tanks look great!

But do Frontier Corps really use armed civilian vehicles? I lived under the impression that they use jeeps like Gaz-69 and sometimes horses and camels.

On the other hand they are more paramilitary troops so its bossible.

So the next release include bug fixes and armor? You really got this thing going by the looks of it. New stuff coming up and I have to say I like. Like it alot.

the frontier corps uses camels mostly but that is next to impossible in OFP.. and the toyota is great it is fast and arabs love their white toyota's.. I might add more border cars later..

asfor bug fixes? nah i like to just add mroe and more bugs..

lol

yeah i fixed alot fo the bugs.

the "blueish purple" ak texture, the floating patchs and flags. a few bugs still are there like the mortar bug I hav enot desided how I want to fix it. as well as other bugs that I can't remember right now..

Plus a pretty large armour pack. and some more aircraft.. but you will just have to wait to see wich armour and wich aircraft..

[bucket man 2]

Sounds... nice but painfull to wait.

About the camels, I forgot it was OFP we were talking about. And arabs do seem to love their Toyotas. I remember incident in Iraq where soldiers attacked convoy in pink Toyota Hilux with DshK in the back.

We're just going by the spelling used by the main source of info on the Israeli Special Operations units: www.isayeret.com

Here they spell it with a "y".

But, I'm sure some people spell it differently kinda like alot of Arabic words have a bunch of different spellings.

I've made a quick mission with the saryet 13 unit raiding an island defended by egyptian commandos, it will work as an MP coop or in SP, anyone who wants it let me know and ill email it to you.

[theavonlady 2]

Golani with an "I" is the official English spelling of the Brigade.

This is the English spelling used by the IDF itself on its website, by the English language Jerusalem Post and Ha'aretz newspapers and by the international press.

Isayeret's spelling is plain wrong. They're very nice fellows (I once contributed some pics to the site) but their expertise is not in English.

[calm_terror 0]

ok I will correct the spelling next updateis there any other misspellings in the pack?

just a question about the egyptian m1's, is that camo accurate. Ive never seen any photos of an egyptian m1, and never even saw them when i was in egypt. Im not saying yours are incorrect, just wondering if you have any photos or if that is the actual camo.

BTW, what is is with the triangles on egyptian vehicles. I know some m60's have blue triangles on them.

[calm_terror 0]

egyptian m1a1's are jsut the same desert tan as the us m1a1's..

as for the triangles i figure they mean something aboot what unit the tank belongs too. i will post osme images of real egyptian m1a1's later

thanks

[DB-ERAUPilot 0]

wow you learn something new everyday I didn't know we exported the Abrams

[calm_terror 0]

the US actual exports the m1a1 and m1a2 to kuwait, and saudia arabia and a few others egypt actual has begon to built/assemble the m1a1 in country they have soem 700 M1a1's.. but they don't get the DU ammo they use the advanced tungsten rounds. wich are not as good as the DU or even the israeli tungsten...(tho unconfirmed Israel uses DU)

[python3 0]

the number is gonna be closer to ~880 abrams due to an aditional 125 purchased a while ago. Plus 14 of them are being upgraded to the m1A2 standard.

i believe they use the "Armor Piercing Fin Stabilized Discarding Sabot-Tracer Kinetic Energy Tungsten Advanced (APFSDS-T) armor-piercing rounds" from the M1A2 on their tanks, pretty darn effective.

also, they do got DU ammo

"In 2002 Egypt purchased 5,000 KEW-A1 armor piercing shells from the US made of depleted-uranium (DU), the tank ammunition adds significantly to the lethality of Egyptian armor"

all from an interesting report on Arab armor released by NATIV

http://www.acpr.org.il/ENGLISH-NATIV/04-issue/fishbein-4.htm

[calm_terror 0]

that is wrong the KEW is a tungsten round.

the US does not export DU rounds.

plus their M1A1 does not use DU armour so it is not as good as the US m1a1..

and here is jsut one of the main sources..
