Good work as alpha status

The 76mm gun seems a bit too powerfull. Almost as powerfull as 128mm of the T-72.

It's great !

A little powerful cannon perhaps, as the recoil is moving the entire vehicle.

Thanks !

[soul_assassin 1750]

Thnks to all for the feedback and comments. I will take the ammo issues into account for the final release.

Cheers

Now we have this awesome little monster, does anyone know how to paradrop it? Or at least spawn it in the air with a chute?

[soul_assassin 1750]

I still need to consult with some ppl but I hope to be able to provide a script with the final version that can do that.

Your welcome, i was(and am) glad to help

BTW, who said about T-72s using 128mm guns? LoL? It's 125mm smoothbore gun, though Sprut-SD uses 125mm gun too...

Looks great, gonna try this little airborne superb vehicle in-game soon.    

[soul_assassin 1750]

As far as I read the 73mm cannon on thebmd fires the HEAT and the HE-Frag rounds which in my config are well below what the t72 can punch in game so i toned it down a little by about 50 but I wont go more.

Good fun to play with it. Will be a great asset for CTI missions.

Very well made PDF and very nice looking vehicle!

[soul_assassin 1750]

Thanks

Concerning CTI and Warfare I think it would be so awesome to have airborne as a completely seperate unit from your army so that u can call in an airdrop at any time and throw them in behind enemy lines. That would be killer

At last an IFV that matches the quality of ARMA standards Just need a BTR-T now and a BMP 3.

Thanks for this one
