The Turbanator

Anybody know of any shotgun attachments for an M4 in any mods or any WIP's? If not, it'd be awesome to have one.

For some reason, Meet The Feebles comes to mind...

Any thoughts on adding the E-8C JSTARS? Your E-3 does a great job of tracking enemy air movements & passing it off to friendly air & ground units. I just thought it would be great to have this aircraft as it could track enemy surface units & pass off the info. Possibly even track enemy radio transmissions. It's also based off the Boeing 707 just like the KC-135 & E-3 already in your pack. Anyhow, keep up the great work & I can't wait for what you have in store for the next update. Thanks. ;-)

Anyone know if there's a mod that allows you to play your own music in-game? The vehicles have radios, but no function to actually play any audio. GTA on PC has that where you can make a music folder & stick mp3's in it to make your own playlist in-game. It would be nice to have that feature in Arma.

Hey @TeTeT , as all the US Navy & USMC have hi & lo vis paint schemes would you consider adding one for the default RAAF paint scheme? I know that it's not exactly high vis, but it is beautiful nonetheless. The RAAF has an F/A-18F in a beautiful 1 Squadron 100th Anniversary livery as shown below:

I'm surprised nobody has made a Donald Trump character yet, or even a world dictator pack. Not saying Trump's a dictator... yet. I've seen some interesting ones floating around, but nothing like this.

@johnhansen with the recent release of the Jets DLC, would you consider doing a reskin of the AAF A-149 Gryphon into a future Brazilian Air Force JAS-39E Gripen? I just thought it would be logical as Brazil is the first confirmed export customer for this plane & it would add some great air power to your mod. Thanks. From this (A-149 Gryphon): To this (JAS-39E):

Anyone know if there's any mod with the ability to use knives, for like a stealthy kill?

Wasn't my intention, my bad. Mistakes do happen, my apologies.

It looks more like a HK417 which is generally used by the marksman in ADF service by regular infantry & special forces in a 16 inch barrel & an ACOG scope. Regular ADF infantry: Australian SF:

@TeTeT I know that the F/A-18X mod by John Spartan & Saul is now dead. Any thoughts on implementing some, if not all of the additional features on the F/A-18E/F Super Hornet? Of course you'd need to ask John Spartan & Saul for permission first. Instead of just seeing the excellent original Black Wasp mod die, it could still live on in the Super Hornet. The Kuwaiti Air Force now has F/A-18E & F's on order with Advanced Super Hornet features: uprated engines, upgraded avionics & conformal fuel tanks. These could be added/removed during the arming menu or via module. Freeing up the weapons stations of fuel tanks means more weapons carried with the addition of the CFT's. Just suggestions. Thanks. Any thoughts? http://www.combataircraft.net/2016/11/18/qatar-and-kuwait-fighter-deals-signed-off/ https://www.google.com.au/amp/www.chinatopix.com/articles/amp/106493/20161119/sunni-air-power-boosted-big-time-f-15-18-purchases.htm

That could even extend to an optional patch to be worn on the uniforms. I was also searching the forums & was surprised nobody thought of this one: a bugler. There would be no hand animations required as there are no keys. You could have a drop down menu to to play the desired tunes, examples being: The Last Post, Reveille, Rouse, etc. https://anzacday.org.au/bugle-calls

These 2 definitely have the ESS glasses that you're looking for as I've used them before: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=26661&highlight=TRYK http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=24147&highlight=BWMOD Hope this helps! ;-P

I would love to see the Textron AirLand Scorpion in Arma 3. This aircraft can be used for military & non military use. It's roles include: ISR, close air support, natural disaster support, air sovereignty support, border patrol, maritime surveillance, emergency relief, counter narcotics as well as being an advanced trainer. It also features an internal weapons bay that can store sensors &/or weapons & the aircraft is fully modular, allowing for different wings to be removed & replaced with different wing designs for different mission profiles. It's low purchase cost (less than US$20 million) & extremely low operating cost (less than US$3,000 Vs turboprop T-6 Texan II US$2,200 per flight hour) would make this an logical aircraft for the AAF or the Tanoan Government to have. With all the flight, radar & sensor upgrades coming with the Jets DLC, it would make perfect sense to have these implemented in this plane. Thanks. Any thoughts? Here's an overview: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Textron_AirLand_Scorpion

I'm absolutely thrilled to see this back up & continuing! Just a suggestion: have you thought about asking @flanders25 for permission to use his E/A-18G that he's working on as he's doing one in 6th Squadron RAAF colours? Perhaps even try asking @SGT Fuller if you can borrow & reskin his F-35A from his USAF pack into RAAF colours? Keep up the great work. I'm absolutely psyched to see what you guys come up with! Congratulations & thanks!

BI definitely need to do a Naval DLC pack. All the vanilla terrains are surrounded by water, kind of a waste not to utilise it. The upcoming Jets DLC hints that there may be an aircraft carrier in it. It would be a bit silly if all you have to defend it are assault boats, RHIB's & SDV's. Anytime an aircraft carrier or LHD goes to war they're never alone. LHD's have an expeditionary strike group & aircraft carriers have a carrier strike group as escorts as they themselves are rather lightly armed for self defense. It would benefit Arma 3 to have ships of frigate or corvette size & some submersibles larger than the SDV's for offshore fire support as well as an armed staging base for launching missions. The FFAA Mod's BAM illustrates this perfectly being able to launch SDV's, RHIB's & choppers as well as offshore fire support. It would completely round out Arma 3 if BI does do this sort of DLC. Time will tell if anything like this comes to fruition. Thanks.

BI had better hurry up if they're releasing a F-15SE as firewill has one in the works at the moment...

Any thoughts on medium sized civil aircraft with STOL / unpaved airfield capabilities? Examples being: Pilatus PC-24, Bombardier Dash 8, ATR 42/72 or the Dornier 328? They'd be particularly useful on all Arma 3 airfields, especially Tanoa. Just spinning some ideas. I especially love your work on the Dornier 228. Keep up the great work. Thanks! Pilatus PC-24: Bombardier Dash 8 Q200: ATR 72-600: Dornier 328:

Ahhh... The proposed Boeing F/A-XX, the possible replacement for the Super Hornet family in manned & unmanned configuration. It would be nice, I highly doubt BI would do these though...

I've noticed in Arma 3 most, if not all of the native BI aircraft are highly modified & "stealthisized" versions of real world aircraft. Cases in point: = & = I'm guessing with the upcoming Jets DLC, we'll probably realistically see something more along the lines of this: turned into something like this...

What, like this?

Does anybody know whether the Jets DLC might be including a jet powered armed UAV?

I'm just going to throw this idea out there & see if anything happens: how about an Airbus A330-200? It would work well with 2 base models, civil & military. The civil version perhaps with a drop down config menu with engine options (GE, P&W or RR) & paint scheme options & the military A330 MRTT with built-in countermeasures, drop down config menu with optional AAR kit (boom / hose & drogue or both), engine options, paint schemes & ability to receive & offload fuel to other aircraft. This would work really well & add to the whole immersion of maps such as Taunus for example. I know the USAF mod made the KC-135 (which is awesome), I just thought the A330/KC-30 might be more fitting for Arma 3's timeline as they're in widespread use & will be for many more years to come. Just a thought. Thanks.

Will you guys be covering just the CQB weapons or will sniper weapons be included (light to heavy)?

Are you going to keep the Evel Knievel style ramp on Jade Groove from Arma 1 days? That was absolutely insane! The countless hours of fun & laughter I had trying out different kinds of vehicles (including an AV-8B Harrier) to launch off of it. I'm psyched that you're doing all these maps. My personal faves would have to be Tonal & Jade Groove, but that will probably change once you've released these maps. Keep up the excellent work, this is highly appreciated. Thanks. ;-)
