USAF PJ's, Somalia 1993.

The prone firing position looks the like the one from the old pack and not the newer animation you've shown in the discussion thread.

The guys using ProTecs would be used to copy old PJ's, just like their intended to portray old Deltas. In Mogadishu the PJ's wore Pro-Tecs. You know those guys who fast rope in to provide medical aide in the movie? They were PJ's, and *Gasp* wearing Pro-tecs.

I'd have to agree on the concept of the MICH helmet. Even BAS didn't get the size and look correct in my opinion, no one really has yet.

Oh yeah....

No, he's definetely a US Army Ranger. For starters you can see the ranger scroll on his sleeve. If I'm not mistaken that's also RBA (Ranger Body Armor) he's wearing? That's a Matt Damon face, he played Eversmann in BHD.

Very cool units, my opinion the best Delta's around right now, they also fill in nicely for US Army SF guys. I would really like to see more models of the M4's, deffinetely with Aimpoints and EoTechs, instead of just all ACOG's. Maybe darken up the desert camo a little bit also. Besides that I love them. Oh, and do they even use Colt 733's anymore?

Banned for a week

Finally! I can't tell you how excited I was for these guys and now they are finally here. I must say this is a nice going away gift. OFP finally has some great African SF units.

The story behind them they said is that they're eastern european military integrated into the Tonali Defense Force.

Gah, I want these guys!

I just thought of this but do you think you could add in the lighter green Marine Corps paint scheme with the next realese? Or is this scheme accurate to what was really used? I'll see if I can dig up a photograph.

These are really cool aircraft, I'd agree with having the doors open by default too. Also, what's the troop capacity for these egg-beaters? SOG wasn't a CIA run operation, it was run by Military Assitance Command-Vietnam (MAC-V), which took over all special military operations in Vietnam (except the later Operation Pheonix) during what was Called Operation Switchback. The CIA started SOG, at the time called Spec Ops Group, but it had huge problems under them and they lost control over it. That's what I recall anyway, it's been a while since I read the book.

But they didn't, so quit complaining. I think the pack's great. The desert scheme is really cool, and one that you don't see very many photographs of. If I'm correct they have a capacity of twelve?

I actually just saw something on CNN the other day and which had a great deal of footage taken at the US Army Infantry School in Benning, Georgia. Every single trainee was using the M-16A4 with CCO on it, if you look at pictures in Iraq now also, there are far more Army infantrymen carrying them. I'd suggest replacing the INQ weapons also, as they also cause more lag on lesser systems.

Do you guys really think that asking non-stop for them to realese these things is going to make them suddenly go back on the very reason they were driven to leave in the first place? They aren't coming, deal with it. I for one am glad we're still getting two things in their leaving and word that they'll be doing mods again in the future. Thanks for all the great times, BAS. You're mods well always hold one of the highest slots in the community, and a permanent place in my mod folders.

Wow...hate to see you guys go. Thanks for all the dedicated effort and top quality mods over the years, guys.

Are these units close to release or are they still a work in progress?

Wonder what's wih all the silence all of the sudden...

As none of us are members of such an organization, I think it's a little presumptuous to say 'what's right and wrong' on what kind of equipment they carry and what kind of equipment they can and can't get their hands on. For all we know these companies may very well have had contacts with the Russian government to get such weapons, as perhaps the company employed former Russian SF personnel. I don't think it's impossible that such a company would come across weapons like an AK-74 that is 'impossible' to get outside of Russia. Why don't you just keep your gripes to yourself about how 'oh this is so very wrong and shouldn't happen' or 'but they did do this wrong in the past so blah blah blah', it's a quick fix of a config to edit what weapons are carried....and if you're so dead set against it, just don't download it. It's not even out yet, and could for all we know be a ways from realese and you're already gripping. Oh, and on the topic of armor, it's a documented fact that companies like Sandline and Executive Outcomes have employed them in the past. Do a little research on these companies, you'd be surprised.

I wonder if the every increasing brightness and clarity of the photographs is representative of a coming realese

A mod that isn't completed yet. Certainly looking good though.
