TeRp 1 Posted February 18, 2005 Hi again, We're very pleased to announce our latest release, the light armoured reconnaissance vehicle Fennek by Rangarion. Here is a snipet from the readme: Quote[/b] ]The Fennek is a light armoured reconnaissance vehicle jointly developed for both the German and Dutch armed forces, replacing the Luchs armored reconnaissance vehicle in German service. The 4x4 vehicle is operated by a three-man crew and deployed in units of two vehicles, able to conduct independent operations for a period of up to five days. Road range is 860 km (400 km when off-road), maximum road speed is 115 kph. Although having exceptional off-road capabilities, the vehicle is not amphibious. The Fennek is equipped with an extendable mast-mounted optronics package, including daylight TV, an imaging infrared sight as well as a laser rangefinder. Also carried is an ALADIN UAV, using either a daylight TV or an infrared sensor. Launched by hand, ALADIN has a range of up to 6 km. Although the small size and low silhouette are considered as its most effective means of protection, the Fennek is designed to withstand small arms fire up to 7.62x51 AP and artillery splinters. Six smoke grenade launchers are fitted. Armament includes either a machine gun or an automatic grenade launcher, operated from a remotely operated overhead weapons station. Our release includes two versions of the Fennek, one in NATO and another in winter camo. Additionaly ALADIN UAVs are included which can be launched by hand and controlled by the Fennek Commander. The Fennek also features a working "periscope" and GPS display, also usable from the commander seat. Please note: The winter camo version is a special gift to you by Rangarion, we have currently no plans of creating or supplying other BWMod vehicles in/with winter camo. Last but not least: Before trying to use the addon, please read the readme or have a look at the tutorial mission included, because there are some steps that have to be taken, otherwise the Fennek will not work. Wolf The Mercedes 250 GD is the standard Jeep of the German Bundeswehr which serves in numerous different roles including personnel and general transport, but also carrying shelters or mission specific payload. Basic Pack Update Due to a number of minor bugs (config, scripts) we've decided to provide an updated version of our Basic Pack, version 1.21. For a list of changes have a look at the readme. If you already have version 1.2 installed, you can download the Update and replace your old files. If you do not have the Basic Pack yet, you can download the latest version below. Basic Pack v1.21, Patch Basic Pack v1.21, Full Version Fennek Download Wolf Download (CtD Problem fixed) Have a nice weekend. And we would like to thank ofp.info for their superb hosting service.

Download link is fixed, version number has been increased to 1.2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

da12thMonkey 1943 Posted February 19, 2005 The Fennek is absolutely fantastic, it's unique so far as OFP addons go; there's nothing else quite like it. The updated Basic Pack and Wolf are also much appreciated. As always, I can't wait for your next lot of addons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silent N Deadly 0 Posted February 19, 2005 It is most impressive. The Fennek is....wow, I just love it! All the little (and useful) features. It's wonderful! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silent N Deadly 0 Posted February 19, 2005 It is most impressive. The Fennek is....wow, I just love it! All the little (and useful) features. It's wonderful! That UAV is so hard to spot...you need to look really close to find it. That would be great for recon missions. How about a "Photo-mode" where you can take pics, and it will display it on the computer inside? EDIT- D'oh...soo sorry for double post...I hit back instead of edit. Oops, sorry!

AimPoint 0 Posted February 19, 2005 WoW great work!,very high level addon,this Fennek Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nyles 11 Posted February 19, 2005 Yeah it's an amazing addon. Very nice job! One thing that I'd love to see in an improved release is a weapon sight for the gunner. At the moment I can only fire the weapon (and see where I hit) with external view enabled, which usually is deactivated on our server along with crosshairs. A proper weapon sight would really add to this sweet addon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
