[Arma 3 SEAL Team helicopter evacuation?]

Pretty sure you could get something like that purely through script, it probably wouldn't look that good though. 

[Yet another "My mic isn't working in Arma3" post]

Do you have a microphone lying around that uses a 3.5mm jack you can test something with?  Or does your setup have a headset 3.5mm port instead of/on top of the headphones and microphones ports?

[Teleport with Timeskip Script]

you need to remote exec your script to the server and your fade effects to the client

So in init.sqf put:

YourPrefix_fnc_teleportFade = {
	[0,"BLACK",0.1,3] call BIS_fnc_fadeEffect; 
 	player SetPos ((getPos t1) vectorADD ([random[0, 12.5, 25], random[-1.5, 0, 1.5], 0]));
 	[1, "BLACK",5,1] call BIS_fnc_fadeEffect;
	0=[[["near the coast... ","align = 'center' size = '0.7' font='PuristaBold'"],["","<br/>"],["5 days later","align = 'center' size = '0.7'","#aaaaaa"]]] spawn BIS_fnc_typeText2; 
};

YourPrefix_fnc_teleportPlayersToSub = {
	setDate [2012, 9, 1, 4, 30]; 
	0 setFog [0.4, 0.1, 25]; 
	[] remoteExecCall ["YourPrefix_fnc_teleportFade", 0];
};

And make your addaction the following:

this addAction ["To U-Boat",{[] remoteExec ["YourPrefix_fnc_teleportPlayersToSub", 2]},[],1,false,true,"","_this distance _target < 3"];

The init of a vehicle is executed every time someone joins, so you don't need to remote exec there (iirc)

There's also no value lost?  I just tested it with the code in Robustcolor's reply.  Sometimes the first is marginally faster, sometimes it's marginally slower.  It basically comes down to personal preference.

3 hours ago, HartofARMA said:

to apply these modifiers globally (to all units starting or spawned in later during a mission) via singleplayer init.sqf script or other mission start script.  

 

How are these units created?  Do you spawn them with script, via zeus, ...?

 

The easiest way to add that EH to all units would be via a while true loop over allUnits that adds it to any unit that doesn't have it yet.  The best way to do it would be to create your own function that you call instead of createUnit when your mission wants to create a unit and apply the EH in that function.
