Hello! I'll post some work-in-progress stuff here of a FDF Faction mod i'm working on. Before you even ask: What is this project about?: My plan is to create a "Modular" FDF Faction mod to steam workshop, with CBA_A3, and RHSAFRF, RHSUSAF, RHSGREF & RHSSAF as only mandatory mods. It will not be historically accurate, but will be close enough, to provide a fun FDF experience. Modular?: Meaning that the faction can be basically mixed-and-matched with many mods, to increase amount of vehicles available to even changing weapons on troops. Only mandatory dependencies are the ones mentioned previously. Otherwise the mod will include multiple compat files and/or retextures that load in when certain mods are loaded. FDF?: Finnish Defence Forces Current Done List: - M05 Uniforms and Helmets - M04 Gear - M62 Gear - RK62 & RK62M2 - SCAR-L (Thanks to Aegis) - Compat for F-18C and F-35C Mods - Plastic Stock PKM that supports rails Currently WIP: - BMP2-MD Texture - Faction file - Basic loadouts for: - Men (Conscript) - Men - Men (Special Forces) - TRG42 - Retex for F-35C Mod - FinnishNames file - Insignias - For branch of services, brigades etc. My plan for future: - Fin(n)ish faction file, with groups and everything - Configs for RHS vics - Retextures for RHS vics - Jet, and Heli Pilot clothing textures - Compat/soft dependencies files for the following mods: - CUP & CUP dev - FFP/SFP - Global Mobilization Some WIP screenshots for now: https://imgur.com/a/HVm4ncF Want to help?: Hop on my discord, and offer me your services: https://discord.gg/EDHAWck397 What i'm looking for?: If you have any models or mods you are willing to share that relates to FDF, i'm more than happy to receive You can check a rough list of Finnish Equipment here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_equipment_of_the_Finnish_Army However, if your stuff is not allowed to be released under APL-SA license freely, i am not looking to include it. Everything that will be released, will be done under APL-SA license, meaning i am allowing everyone to freely upload and reuse anything included. (NON-COMMERCIALLY)

So I'm guessing that by now most people have seen the latest devblog by BI. I myself am actually quite excited for the new jets DLC, it looks great. One thing I noticed though when reading the latest blogpost was something written on the side of the new NATO jet, called the Black Wasp II. Here's the image. Right underneath the wing, above the word NAVY, it says "USS Freedom". Now anyone who likes flying aircraft in Arma like myself, probably knows of the the brilliant F/A-18X mod that was originally released by John Spartan and Saul here on the forums, and is now maintained by TeTeT if I'm not mistaken. However before they handed over that project they were talking about working on something "big", and they teased us with an image of a fictional next generation aircraft carrier which they called, you guessed it, the USS Freedom. So I'm sort of putting this together: 1. They stopped working on the F-18X mod which was called the "Black Wasp" and the new NATO jet by BI is called the "Black Wasp II". 2. Before they left they teased us by saying they were hard at work on something "kinda big". 3. Before that they showed interest in making an aircraft carrier for Arma 3 named the "USS Freedom" a name that has now resurfaced on the side of a new DLC jet. 4. In the new devblog video Jay Crowe stated that they have worked with third party developers from B01 studio's. Which suggests to me that Spartan and Saul now actually have their own production company (awesome :D) 5. In the same video you can clearly see there's motion capture work being done for flight deck crew. Now ofcourse I don't want to jump to conclusions, but if you'd ask me John Spartan and Saul have started their own little game company, and were employed by BI to work on the Jets DLC. All if which fantastic, but I'd like to know if there's anyone here that can actually confirm/debunk this.
